If possible you should try tucking them so the bud sites receive the best light and airflow. I've heard of people taking a few fan leafs off auto during flower but I don't believe it's common practice

Two of my plants are showing some kind of deficiency or lockout. I’ve checked for pests extensively. I think it’s calcium or nutrient lockout. I’ve had issues with them having high PPM on the runoff. I’ll attach pictures to my week 10. Can someone help identify this?Week 10

In the middle of the picture from day 25 there is something weird going on with the new growth (next picture is more detailed). One side is growing really slow, the other looks like it never grew/was eten/something. It is kind of brown/red-ish. Is this a deficiency or windburn?Week 4

Leaf spots and discolourationSpots and discolouration. Northern Lights Auto from Seedsman. End of Wk4. Gaia Green All Purpose at the recommended dose. Is this a deficiency, or a toxicity, or is it caused by being root bound? Not over or under watered, see diary for waterings. Tomorrow to be updated with Wk4.Leaves. Other

Big difference in first true leaves' sizeBig difference in first true leaves' size
Its almost day 5 after emergence. Is this normal? Should I be concerned?
ALSO: It's still a seedling but, I maybe think the cup in which i'm growing it in is too small, or rather I put too little soil (9cm diameter , 4cm tall dirt).Leaves. Other

In week 12 of the diary I show the continued issue with yellowing and loss of leaves. One G13 plant has nearly lost all its leaves. I think I have a pest issue, see week 11 diary picture of the pot with lots of white tiny things crawling. Could this be root aphids?Week 12

Spider mites in floweringSpidermites detected in flowering. Still no webs forming on buds but there is small damage on leaves. I have neem oil but don't wanna ruin my buds with bad smell and heard neem is toxic to humans. Rosemary essential oil maybe?
