K deficiency? Hard to believe that can happen in 65-gallon pots.Are getting big though.New growth tips looked yellow,hit them with water-soluble K and the new growth edges seemed get green.Some toco-ing, humidity is kinda high. Too intense light(800 ppfd), not enough C02 maybe?

I have about 3 weeks left of flower, havenât started flushing and had some deficiency in the beginning. The yellowing is starting to creep up to the smaller, upper leaves. Iâm thinking a cal mag issue since I have not supplemented with that at all. Is it too late to give ?

Natural or Problem?
Is this natural yellowing or is there a problem? pH to 6.3 and runoff is 5.7. The stem is awfully purple, watering/feeding is where I struggle. 1st pic - 4/21 and 2nd pic - today(4/24). Seems to have escalated over the last few days. Do-si-do auto about 10 weeks.
