Can u recognize the deficiencies?? Suggestions and recommendations for solutions.

Those plants look hungry. They don't need just calmag and silica they need a complete and balanced feed. You're not growing in straight FFOF as you cut it with 40% perlite. When you water you're likely getting pretty fast runoff and washing stuff out of the soil. I don't see any need to be adding that much perlite if any. I'd give them a low dose of veg nutes. 400 ppm or so. Usually when the cotyledons and lower leaves go yellow on small plants like that it's because they want a snack.

Haven’t been getting much runoff bc I overwatered so I have been watering lightly. Could these be deficiency’s from under watering? What nutes would u recommend?

Bottled ro water, no nutes. Add mycos to water sometimes.

Is there a reason you're using RO water? In most cases tap water is fine and actually is better as it contains minerals the plant needs.

 

[CincityFinesse]

Did u mix it with perlite?

Yes

Have you checked the PH with a pen? RO water can come out in the 5-7 range. Typically it's closer to 6.5.. but it's possible it's off.

My tap water 9ph and I think around high 400ppm.

Yes I have. Ro water I use is 6.5.

U in Vegas?

Probably same water as mine, I use my tap in soil/peat
I literally see fish and rocks in mine, but good water cept in hydro or rezzes

 

[Phabio007]

I'd have to agree with the others then, they are hungry. Got PH down? Sounds like your tap water will work.

Not in Vegas, but my tap sucks. Don’t drink or cook with it.
Should I start ph’ing my tap water and stop using RO?

No ph down yet. Was thinking ab getting some citric acid to do that?

U gotta good eye. My humidity levels were really high mostly 70rh but were going up to 90 sometimes. I have that in check now.
So u should pluck those leaves or cut them off?
Any nute recommendations? Looking for cheaper but quality alternatives.

So here’s some of my nutes. The ones I didn’t show are from RAW and are the Fill Up and Molasses sugar. I like RAW because you can specifically target your nutes!! No need for the stuff you don’t need. BUSHDOCTOR BOOMERANG IS GREAT FOR CLONES AND TRANSPLANT SHOCK!!! Let me know if you try them how they work for you!! Good luck!
I’m also attaching my current grow! Limonade skunk, triangle sky walker kush and the 2 big ones are green crack going into flower today!

Yup or get a good filter friend!!

 

[Phabio007]

Yes Citric Acid will do that

Ffof is pretty hot outa the gate

Give them some time to get thru this part

It’s 60% FFOF according to his OP.

I’m not sure why people (not just you OP) change anything about a soil. It comes ready to go. Ready to grow in. Just add water.

Yikes. But it depends what's in the water. You can usually find a water report for your area that tells you what's in it.

As for nutrients, I don't believe in all the bottles of cannabis specific nutrients. For a 2 part something like FloraNova Grow & Bloom. Or just something like MaxiBloom which is a 2 part but all you really need is the bloom. It has all the NPK, micronutrients, and calcium, magnesium, and sulfur. Some use that from start to finish and harvest spectacular product. Those are not organic so for that you would want something else. Earth Juice is a 2 part Grow and Bloom. 2-1-1 and 0-3-1 respectively. But there are many other products available.

I was watching a whole lotta videos. I guess there’s a lot of misinformation out there.
