started grow question 4y ago
Hi all. Just a quick one. Do I need to use calmag on every watering using a sf4000. It's my first time using a led. Thanks for any advice. 👍🏻👍🏻

Depends If coco is present in your substrate. If so then I would use it more often then not coco absorbs cal mag.

What to do? Leaves are getting worse.
Had some light strain earlier on, but now im leaning toward a deficiency. Been feeding on a low-dose flora series schedule with clean ph water for every other feed. Just had clean water yesterday and nutes 3 days before. Dry out between feeds. Nitrogen? Calmag? Other?

I keep seeing this reddish or bronzish discoloration in the new growth when it’s just starting. Almost a purplish color at times. What kind of deficiency could this be? Or something else entirely?

Magnesium - Nutrient problem
Do I have Magnesium deficits or any other problem? I started to notice during the last week and it is progressing quickly. The last weeks, pH of drain water was low (between 5,5 and 5,8) but I could increase it until 6.1. Has anyone the same problem? Thanks!

Discoloration and patches on the top sugar leaves
Leaves circled have gone lime green to yellow with the dark and light spots shown in the image. Is it light burn, wind burn or something more sinister?!

Autoflower, deficiency or light stress? End of week 8.
Good time of the day. Having following problems with my autoflower (see pictures) which is at the end of week 8. Plant had some light stress before, could that be a consequence of that? Or could that be nutrient deficiency? Looking forward to hearing from you guys!

Why isn't it going away?
It might be a potassium deficiency and I believe it was so as i was running out of nutrients and i had to lower the nutrient dose i was giving by hand. On the 22nd, i added the nutrients to my AutoPot reservoir so that i no longer had to hand water them and it still has this. SOS
