Magnesium deficiency?
JERgarden
started grow question 6y ago
It seems this girls is showing a magnesium deficiency? If this is correct, should I increase the cal-mag doses or should I just give her a high dose of epsom salt? Appreciate the help!

I'm not really sure what that is but it's not magnesium. Perhaps it's some kind of overdose/lockout or over/under watering., 🌱👍

Yellow and skinny growth?
Can anyone tell me whats going wrong here? I'm guessing the tips yellowing is nutrient burn from the MG soil. But the allover yellowing between the veins and skinny growth has me stumped. My first grow did something similar going into flower. I appreciate any tips or suggestions.

Nutrient deficiency, pest or under-watering?
I'm not sure whether i'm having a nutrient deficiency problem, am under-watering or having a pest. As you can see some leaves dried up and turned yellow and i'm also noticing a little bit of interveinal chlorosis.

I’m not sure if it’s the genetics or what but some leaves are developing a purple hue with some yellow. The new leaf growth doesn’t have it but any input is appreciated. I’ll post a pic in my diary. Thanks!

Help. White widow Auto day 7
I am curious about this white widow auto seedling. This is day 7. Seems to be losing a little color, but is still growing faster than the other 2 seedlings I dropped. Any suggestions on this? I have only been watering with distilled water. I have not fed any nutrients yet

Magnesium deficiency?
Can anybody help with the yellowing between the leaves? Is this a magnesium deficiency? The leaves are still pointing upright but do have slight yellow/brown tips. Have recently transplanted into coco with an EC of 0.56. Ph was 5.8 and runoff was 5.7 when last fed. Any ideas?

What to do? Where am I at now actually? I’m lost and slightly discouraged
When should I add happy frog fruit and bloom? This is my 3rd grow and im 0-2! I have a overfeeding problem but I’ve learned to be corrective and precise with ph and ppm and be pest preventative as well (heavy handed waterer as well..im trying). It’s day 5 of flower and I’m lost

Has anyone else heard of using epsom salt with gallon of water for magnesium and sulfur issues? I'm told you can water them or spray them during lights out. I've had some issues before with magnesium due to soil pH recommended by maker didn't follow it I later corrected it pH

intervenal discoloration, organic grow
Gave her enzimes last week, maybe they were too much or some nutrient lock out due to a somewhat excessive fertilization (too much vermicompost) Think I will go on with plain water to the end I think maybe the problem will sort out itself or wont degenerate too much. Any advice?

Light spots on leaves

From the start I’ve been watering with ph 6.5. I just discovered my runoff is 7.1 and I have what I believe to be a zinc deficiency. Similar issue on my previous grow. How can I fix my watering routine such that the ph stays more stable?

White/Yellow snipes on leaves? (13th day of growth from seed)
I noticed a huge change in my plant leaves in less than 24 hours. The leaves look like they are getting burned out. What is happening? I'm uploading pictures to see the problem and also the growth conditions. I'm watering once every 1 or 2 days (PH = 6.0). Not using nutrients yet

Slow growth yellow leaf edges what to do?
Plant growing slowly (but still growing) with weak growth tips and yellow edges on leaves with interveinal chlorosis. Looks like overwatering / magnesium deficiency to me. I use a weighing scale to know when to water, but started the plant in 25L pot so this might have caused it.
