Deficiency?

Area420
Area420started grow question 3 years ago
Wondering if maybe she has a deficiency? No nutes. I tried to bring attention to it in the video in diary. Healthy leaves showing something. Tap water that sits at least a day. Was able to dip a pH strip today my jug showed close to 7.

If you've not been giving them any nutes, it can't be anything but the PH... 7 is WAY too high - you need to get down to 6.3 (a good range for weed is 6.0-6.5). I really don't like the color of those leaves but it's not a calcium deficiency or a magnesium deficiency so CalMag is going to do nothing for you. I'm wondering why you haven't started on nutes... You're already in flower and at this stage, your grow is going to need increased phosphorus and potassium plus a whole host of other micronutrients bloom nutes would give you... so the two things I'd recommend is 1) get that PH down between 6.0 and 6.5 MAX and start some bloom nutes pronto... otherwise, you're going to have a poor harvest! (I'd also whack off those off-color leaves and just pay attention to the new growth you get after you correct the PH and start the nutes)... Good luck!

FFOF is a soil based growing medium be careful of getting ph below 6.2. ideal soil range ph is 6.5-6.8 and lower is for when your growing in soilless. It looks to me like a PH swing. you will need to fortify your medium with some nutrients as well, FFOF if good but not a start till end option. make sure your feed has all the macros and micros your plant will be needing. add silica first, then CaMg then the others. Give them a good stir and wait between adding them. Only ph balance after the fact. Good Luck!

Plant needs more calcium. Should start feeding cal mag. Best of luck with your grow.
