As always, check your pH levels before trying to fix any nute issues 👌

What stage are your plants in? If in mid to late flower, I would say you're using too many bloom nutes and locking out calcium that way. Seems to be a common problem.

Hi there, does anyone have any idea what the slight mottling is on the leaves of two of my plants. There are close-up pictures under Day 27 in Week 4. The discolouration is present across multiple leaves, but seems to only be happening to two plants out of 8. Thanks!

Nutrient deficiency or surplus?
Hi Guys will post a pic shortly. Have to update the grow as we are actually heading into week 6. One of the white widows is a fair bit smaller than the other. And is showing some form of difficiency or nutrient burn. I think it may be due to to little phosphorus. Opinions?

Need advice as soon as possible. Please see last few pictures of DoSiDos week 3. Am I looking at mottling here? Soil ph maladjusted? Please help if you've seen this before, and what steps do it take moving forward (or am I paranoid, IDK). Thank you!

Brown specks on leaves
I've noticed small brown specks appearing on the lower leaves. Does anyone know what might be causing this? I'm struggling to keep heat down and humidity up due to the weather. Could this be the issue or something else?

Help with weird deficiency
BCN is starting to show some form of deficiency. Given that it's in its 9th week, we are debating whether we should finish with a flush and harvest or try to fix this. Can someone please give their advice and opinion. Have attached a picture of the trichomes, not perfect though.

Calcium Deficiency Won’t Go Away DWC
So plant #1 is still having some Calcium deficiency issues. I’m using RO water and giving the recommended dose of CaliMagic which is 1tsp(5ml)/gal. I’m in DWC and using LED full spectrum lighting. Why can’t I stop these spots? Should I give more than recommended dose of CaliMagic

IMPORTANT excess/deficiency? What's happening? Flowering is in danger
What's happening here? I think it could be Fe deficiency, Mn deficiency, S deficiency or maybe K excess. But I'm not sure about diagnostic and I think I can have more than one problem. Please help, I don't know how to solve it and I see how flowering is very slow and weak
