I don't know how to get it back, does anyone have any advice? I've only been giving it water for over a week and the pH is at 6.4

Your ph is spot on so to me, it looks like you've got some lock out issues. I would add some microbes to the soil along with some molasses and CalMag (1 tsp each per gallon) and hold off on any other nutes for about a week. The microbes work to give the roots the best possible conditions and prevent lockout... You probably won't get the yellow leaves back but no worries there... I'm thinking you started nutes a bit too early and perhaps is too great a concentration although I admit I know nothing about the nutes you're using. My rule of thumb is to wait until the plants are about 2 weeks old before introducing nutes and then I start off with 1/4 strength, then water only then 1/2 strength etc... They look good and strong and I think your issue is easily resolved so don't give up hope! My very first grow I screwed things up SO badly pretty much all the way along and still got a pretty good harvest - I'm sure you will, too! 😊

It looks like they are hungry or have some root rot issues on first glance. Plants grown in soil are harder to flush then thous in hydro like a coir setup. The strength of your feed is all over the place, from 4ec to .4 to 1ec now this week. If the last two weeks where just water why is the EC jumping from .4 to 1? Are these number accurate? If so, it was over fed and this is the aftermath of it. buildup causing lockouts. I would never go over 1200ppm or 1.9-2.4EC depending on your scale. Only way to go above this is having everything else dialed in and its not even needed. Best thing you can do is try start feeding them again on a lite formula if all the nutrients are indeed flushed out of the medium. Be careful of root rot as its easy to over water in soil grows. Best Of Luck!

This looks to me as the result of feeding too much or too often - or maybe both. Remember too, what is showing in the leaves is a direct reflection of what occurred in the soil 2 weeks ago, so even if you have only been giving water for the last week, the damage was done 3 weeks ago. I would be going to 18/6 for a start, then giving her a dose or two of some type of seaweed extract to boost vitality, before returning to feeding at half the strength as to what you were giving previously. The damaged leaves will not recover, but the new growth will be ok. The addition of some mycorrhizae will help too. Looking at my notes from when I grew this strain, I have written "prefers moderate feeding". Also, when growing in soil, you should adopt a schedule of plain water/plain water/feed, so that you are only feeding every 7-12 days. If you have been feeding each time you watered, this would explain the condition of your plant. With a bit of care and luck, she should recover and flower normally. And with very tasty flowers too! Hope this helps, Organoman.

Have you checked your runoff waters ph and ec levels. Check that and make sure their in the proper levels for your soil . 6.5 is good. 500 ppm is quite low for soil. By checking the water that comes out of the planter and adjust your feed as it shows you, it is getting low or the ec is creeping up, ph lowering, or creeping up, you know for sure whether to add or not add nutrients. It also tells you if you need to ph higher or lower the next feed.
