Cal or mag def?

TCH0808started grow question 4y ago

Believe this is a cal or mag def. Didn't begin supplementing until last week (2ml organic cal-mag per gal), but they're getting it w/ every watering now. Lightening between veins on higher sites, minor rust spots on lower sites. Think I can ride this out,but wanted to hear others

I would say its more of a PK def since everything I can see your using has a high N with lower PK. worm castings are 2-0-0 ( some brands add P and K ) Stonington Blend Plant Food 5-2-4 Quoddy Blend Lobster Compost 0.6-0.3-0.2 Approx Ratio you want is(N : P : K) Veg = 3 : 2 : 1 Flower = 1 : 2 : 3 Good luck and Happy Growing

Ok, so I’m starting to see a deficiency. Yellowing between the veins at uppermost leaves. My ph is on par. I’m maintaining my grow per normal with one change. I added Carbo load at 2ml/g. Could that be the problem? I think I’m going to flush today and dump my tank. Restart.

Leave color normal?? [First timer]I am not sure about the color of the leaves if they look normal? The baby leaf seems to be turning a bit yellow. The rest of the leaves seem to be a bit discolored as you can see in the pictures but mainly green though. Is this alright or am I doing something wrong here?

Still to early to tell? Noticed yesterday and have slightly worsened today. Not sure the issue but potentially magnesium? Getting close to top dress also.Only on 1 of 3 plants so far. On older growth after getting dose of Recharge the other day. Maybe an N problem as I also use 484? Or mag? Using CalMag every other watering in RO at 150ppm as the soil has some cal and mag. Also getting close to top dress time maybe something else?
