Calmag issues
Ichabod1905
started grow question 3 years 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.

Las guachas tienen hambre
Ya hace 4 semanas que dejé de fertilizar pensando que estaba más cerca de la cosecha de lo que realmente estaba. Debería volver a fertilizar con alguno de floración o lo dejo así? Ya más de la mitad de los tricomas están lechosos.

K deficiency almost wiped out this plant. What do I do now?
I’m somewhere between 2-3 weeks until harvest time should be. It’s day 80 from seed on this autoflower. Had a bad potassium deficiency that I didn’t figure out quite in time and I’m not sure if too much damage has been done. What should I do?

Fade or deficiency? Day 62
Day 62, starting to see some slight discoloration in some of the older large fan leaves. I’m worried they are either burning or it is just a natural fade and I should let her ride I will be traveling on Monday for the week so wanted to make sure to do anything that needs doing

Possible toxicity or deficiency?
I saw this on one of my bottom leaves this morning. Hopefully someone can give insight of what it might be. I'm concerned that it is phosphorous deficiency. I didn't notice it a day ago, but I wasn't looking closely. 2 days ago I watered her (540 mL, 1/4 tsp nutrients). Thoughts?

Discoloration on leaves. Why?
I was looking at a closeup view of an overhead pic I took yesterday and noticed some slight tan/bron color along the sides of the 2 bigger leaves. I'm wondering why. Nutrient burn? Sulphur deficiency? Something else? Any thoughts?

Leaf issues. More specific question
Asking again but I'll be more specific: I was looking at a closeup view of an overhead pic I took yesterday and noticed some slight tan/brown color along the sides of 1 of the true leaves leaves. I'm wondering why. Nutrient burn? Sulphur deficiency? Damping off? Thoughts?

Homemade inputs???
What do yall think of my diary? All homemade inputs, I invest literally less than 20 bucks in my inputs in the entire grow. I want to prove to you all that you do not need to drop money on bottled nutes, remember bottles are for babies. Challenge me? Just look at my diary

Salvageable? Or pull?
Well boys I done fucked up. Got a major K deficiency (since fed them). Didn't want to save them with liquid nutes as I'm trying organics. Assuming they live (I think the Bubba may have bounced back?) should I try to get a harvest or should I just pull them now? 1 week into flip.

Organic dry amendment replacement for bottled cal-mag nutes? (Preferably off-the-shelf)
I always seems to run into calcium issues (rusting and interveinal chlorosis) around wk 4. While early use of bottled cal-mag (TPS, "organic") has worked very well, I'd like to be able to simply add an additional organic dry amendment in my line-up vice bottled nutes. Any ideas?

Is it time to flush or wait a week?
Hey what’s up grow gang, we’re approaching the final weeks of flowers, but I was curious as to if our grow is ready to be flushed, or if they possibly need another week of nutrients, and also the best flush technique for best results. Thank you for answering in advance!

Possible pH issue.
(15th photo) I've a few leaves which are not looking the best. Does this look like a pH problem or does anybody have other info? I have dropped a bit of lemon into this plant which is the only one with this issue which has not touched the other 2 plants under the same regime. Tx
