Two shades of green on fan leaves

[lisarenae1969]

Does this look like a problem? It is only on the large fan leaves.

Could be an N deficiency. What are using for soil, nutrients, water, etc etc.

Yes it looks like a problem. You're showing short on Mg...a little Epsom will help.

I agree.

How's your watering schedule and what's your medium, a lot of times people are feeding the correct amount of nutrients but cause issues by watering too often.

I am using Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil. My water ph is about 6.5-6.7. I have not added any additional nutrients as of yet. This is my first plant. What nutrients would you suggest. I am also not sure when to put it into the flowering stage. It is about 8 weeks old .

 

[lisarenae1969]

I agree.

Thanks

First I would do a top dressing if you don’t plan on using any other source of nutrition. Secondly, if you are using tap water, calmag isn’t necessary, distilled or RO water needs it. When you switch to flower is completely predicated on the size of your growing area.

Thanks, I've ordered some bat guano for the top dressing. I've also got some epsom salts.

Might not wanna top dress with the guano, I was referring to top dressing with your soil to replenish what’s been used by the plant. Guano is really sandy. I usually brew my guano and feed it that way. If you don’t have the ability to brew, get a stocking, or a really think sock, put the guano in the bottom of the stocking/sock. Next, take your gallon of water and pour some of it into up a cup, heat that cup of water in the microwave until it’s extremely boiling hot, put the sock/stocking with the guano in it in the cup and let it sit until the water is no longer hot. Squeeze the excess liquid out of the sock/stocking, then add that water back to your gallon. I usually already have my kelp in that gallon waiting until the guano is ready. Ph to 6.5-7 and feed away. Same concept as brewing, just a different way of doing it. I do this because it makes the P and K readily available, compared to waiting for the nutrients in the soil to break down which takes a little bit of time.

Will do that! Ty for the help!

Looks like a massive spider mite infestation. What is all that webbing? I noticed it on the first pics a little too, but damn.

yup those are spider mites webs on the edge.

 

[lisarenae1969]

They look like little spiders, I know, and I brush all those webs away constantly. However, I've never actually seen any on the plant. There were some tiny flies around, which are now dead from spiders. I looked up the mites and they don't look the same. Since it's in the basement, I figured they were just little regular spiders eating the flies. What would you suggest to kill them? Is there a spray?

There’s typically not enough Ca/Mg in tap water. Go get some calmag and your issue will be resolved.

 

[Dontjudgeme]

I only use tap water and I don’t touch calmag.

I only use tap water and I don’t touch calmag, never have issues either. I use to use it when I watered with distilled, but I guess my tap water is solid in the Ca and mag area.

Ok. My tap water doesn’t have near enough. I run into deficiencies if I don’t supplement with calmag once a week. Depends on what nutes/soil you’re using as well.

I run organic. Amendments, kelp, guano and molasses. A splash of silica blast here and there but that’s about it. I do however understand that not everyone’s water supply is the same. I just noticed toxicity when I used calmag with my tap, as soon as I stopped it went away.
