Grow QuestionsCal-mag deficiency?

Cal-mag deficiency?

PenguHBstarted grow question 4 years ago

Hi guys, I think it's magnesium deficiency (early flowering). I have also noticed a few small burnt spots on the leaves. Is this time for cal-mag? Or am I reading this wrong?

I would add some cal mag,, I add about 3mil per gallon. I won't won't go more than that unless your growing an Indica dominant strain. Make sure your pH is around 6.3. She should bounce back in a couple days.

Thank you but I am not sure calmag is helping much, it has been on it for 3 days now. I have been adding ph- to my feed and bringing the solution to 5.8 ph. And yes, this is indica dominant.

If you’re using RO water then yeah for sure but if you’re not i’d be sure your water PH is good, your temps are in range, that your feed still has some nitrogen and not so much potassium that it blocks the nitrogen uptake. Adding some cal/mag probably isn't going to hurt either way.

Nitrogen Toxicity?Not sure if this is nitrogen toxicity or normal leaf color. Crinkling was caused by too much light and the fan. Got better in 24h after adjusting grow light and fan. Plants are starting week 2 of veg, Hulkberry Auto. Medium is light mix soil.

Grey leaf tips Booth plants are showing some kinds of burn and I am not sure if it is nutrient burn or light burn or if there is something missing. Looks a bit like MG deficite but shouldn't the plant take that from the soil in that state and age?

Strange discoloration The plant is becoming less green, more yellow, dark green/blue, and the tip seems necrotic. She received a little more light intensity (TS1000 at 50cm, 25%dim to 50%dim) when she was repotted on the final DWC. T.A. (Growing on FeedChart) was used to create the nutrient solution.
