What's the holes about? Pests?
Yea some annoying insects, European earwigs, but nothing to worry about. They do not (as I used to know) cause any complication such as bad bacterias or fungus. It means that she's good . I even sprayed potassium soap to prevent serious pests

Epsom salts are a type of magnesium. The mag of cal mag. It's a common deficiency especially with coco mixes. It may not be a common problem when planted in the earth but potting mixes are a different story.
And incorrect ph is usually at the root of most issues. Dont want to over complicate things but its can sometimes become a big problem. Lots of info out there

I know what ES are. Just wondering if them or Cal Mag were the same. I'm growing in soil (Light Mix). I always check my pH before watering, it stays in the ideal range... don't understand why it should be the source of the problem. Anyways, I've bought Cal-Mag from BioBizz, it's an organic cal-mag so I'll add it directly in soil mixed with my biobizz nutes, to prevent any "incompatibility" while mixing nutes. I will keep you informed all. Thank you guys!

I've personally had to add cal mag to every grow no matter the soil. Good news is that you'll know quickly if it was the issue as they bounce back decently with no new yellowing. Already yellowed leaves likely wont regreen but might.

Sorry if I'm annoying.
How many times should I add the Cal-Mag? Every feeding? BioBizz schedule gives info per-week, in my case 0,5-0,8 ml in week 6-8.. so I have to add it everytime i feed her? Or even when using only water?
Anyways, I haven't said it yet... it's my first grow ever! Haha :weed:

Use biobizz.......but look into ES I can get 50lbs for $33........you don't need that much but you can get in smaller quantities. Save a bunch of $ and compatible.

The problem is that BioBizz bottles don't have directions... you uniquely have to rely on their feed schedule, which is not really appearing clear to me haha :confused:
