A shot of cal/mg would do her some good. It's also high in nitrogen.

Two plants but one is small! Same tent, same nutrients and similar issues but different results
One of my plants is super small and I have no idea why. Initially I thought it was a magnesium deficiency but clearly it was not only that. The issues became apparent between weeks 4 and 6, right after the last transplant. Any idea what could've caused this?

Intervenial chlorosis, thick wrinkled leaves. Ph imbalance or quantity of nutes? Will adding CaliMag back in help? Trying to avoid burnt tips issue
Hard water (7) lowered to 5.8. Last week: 1 gal 3 waterings, w FloraGro (2.5 ml), Micro (2 ml), Bloom (2.5 ml/), Hydroguard (2 ml). Last grow had burnt tips and possible N deficiency, so I was trying to avoid that. This week I've switched to GHE's schedule and added CaliMag.

Magnesium deficiency?
It seems this girls is showing a magnesium deficiency? If this is correct, should I increase the cal-mag doses or should I just give her a high dose of epsom salt? Appreciate the help!

Update on previous deficiency question
Update on previous deficiency question The leaves got worse, its still only a few so not too bad. After doing some research i think it could be a Manganese, magnesium and/or Sulphur shortage. I fed some liquid calmag a day ago. I plan to use epsom salt if there is no change

Stunted leaves
One of my plants is having a hard time - it's technically growing as fast as the others but it's leaves are half the size, slight discolouration and cupping. I suspect Mg, PH or overwatering may be the issue. All variables for each plant are exactly the same.

Yellow and skinny growth?
Can anyone tell me whats going wrong here? I'm guessing the tips yellowing is nutrient burn from the MG soil. But the allover yellowing between the veins and skinny growth has me stumped. My first grow did something similar going into flower. I appreciate any tips or suggestions.

Yellow streaks between leaf veins
All three of my plants have light green/yellow streaks in between the veins on the leaves that have been present since about week one (week 3 currently). Could this be a magnesium nutrient deficiency, PH issue, or perhaps just overwatering?

Leaf colour help. Hi all. I think there may be a problem with the new growth on my plants. They are 10 days into flowering 12/12. They look like they are too light. They veins are much darker giving them a stripey look. I had the light very close to them when it started. ?

Deficiency or Burn?
I have used Happy Frog before with no issues. I am running my first 420 Fast Buds seeds and they seem to have nute burn for the last few weeks no matter what I do. Is this maybe a deficiency and not burn?
