mag deficiency?

[lazypothead420]

I'm definitely going to pre cook my topdressing from now on. Thanks for the info. I'm gonna check out ur posts for sure! okay, Something like a EWC tea?

Just make sure you don't get it too wet. It should be moist, not super wet. If it's wetter, make sure to mix it more often so it doesn't go anaerobic. You also need to mix it more at first when it's hot and giving off steam.

Okay so just kinda mist and mix? Should I mix it everyday? Thanks again for all the help. Gotta go get some sleep. I'll post an update tomorrow afternoon.

I don't mist it. I just add a little water if I need and mix it up good. I mix it every couple days usually. But if I get it too moist I mix it everyday. They longer it cooks, the less you need to stir it up.

Goodnight man. Hit me up if you have more questions.

Well the yellowing has slowed down but hasn't stopped yet. I watered with some Neptune's at 1tbsp per gallon on the 25th which seemed to help. But now I got clawed leaf tips and weird blistery looking stuff going on with the lower leaves. I need help guys!

I would try N next. alfalfa meal or something with only N in it. (or veg food if you dont have any N on hand) hit um twice in a row with veg food and then go back to normal. Your soil is not doing well in organics. Got any molassas to feed your soil? That will help a tad.

Would you think a EWC tea would be good? I've actually got some that is ready to be used today. I'm pretty sure I made the rookie mistake and haven't been watering them right. Last watering I gave em double the amount I was giving them and they sucked up all of it. I was worried about overwatering.. oops. I've got some Unsulphered Molasses I use. I thought clawing is from nitrogen toxicity? Here's some more lights off pics

Yes give them a nice full scoop of ewc and water it in with a tbsp of molasses per gallon of water. That should help fairly quick. Might be a toxicity of some sort but its not nitrogen.

Okay I will give em the tea tonight along with a good full watering. This is only the second watering since I realized I've been underwatering. Should I be worried about the leaves looking weird? What could've possibly caused this? You've been alot of help so far, I really appreciateit! Also I picked up a hydrometer to help with me watering at the right time.

No , dont worry about the leaves at all , but pay attention like you have been. The cause is too much of something or maybe not enough of something else. Either way its not bad enough to worry yet. they are overall healthy.
The life in the EWC will need to stay moist to help the most. Water um real good and just go by weight ..... the dry ones will be real light compared to the wet ones.

I'm gonna make sure I keep a really close eye on stuff now. I gave them the ewc tea tonight. I took the pot elevators out and let the pots sit in the trays so they can suck the runoff up. Let em sit for 20 minutes and sucked all the water up and put them back on the elevators. Is that a good technique?

MAKE SURE AND DILUTE THE MOLASSES IN BOILING WATER FIRST MAYBE A COUPLE TABLESPOONS OF EPSOM IN THE MIX

I shook it up in a warm bottle of water. Is that good enough?

yeah i use my kuerig and make it on the small cup button then pour the mix into my feed

So I got some critical kush growing. They are almost 6 weeks from seed still in veg. Using FFOF with dr. Earth 4-4-4. I just topdressed a couple days ago. I started to notice slight yellowing 3 days ago. I've been foliar feeding them 2x weekly with 1/4 tsp Epsom and 1/2 tsp Protekt. They are under a 630w geekbeast @ 32in 70%power. I've never grown with led before and I'm thinking the light might be causing mag deficiency. Any thoughts?

Ive geard of cal def from led's not sure why though

 

[Onceuponatime2309]

The only nutes I'm using is dr. Earth 4-4-4. Along with a foliar of Epsom and protekt 2x weekly. Should i use the Neptune's harvest along with some Epsom to have a more rounded solution?

Too much K can through off your cal mag. Plants need a balanced diet to function properly.

Wtf is going on around here. That these folks are telling you tomjam more unbalanced elements into your pots...gtfo!

Nope, they were fine up until 6 days after the first foliar. I gave them their first foliar on the 13th then again on the 16th along with the first topdress of dr. Earth 4-4-4. Then the 18th was the begining yellowing.

unbalanced bro...cant over do things its a killer....balanced...molases? 1Tbsp to 5 gallons indoors...maybe less! Lol

How many weeks into veg did you start the foliar apps?

Look into mulders chart!!! Lots of info

 

[Onceuponatime2309]

Funny you say that.. this did start happening a day or 2 after I topdressed. I topdressed 2 tbsp per gal but I didn't compensate for the empty inch or so in the pot so it was a little hotter then I originally planned.

Takes 3 to 4 weeks to breakdown. What are the chances that in 2 days a def of mag shows up this ad. When it takes atleast 3 to 5 weeks for a mag def as you are seeing to show up in the first place?

Coincidence id say! This if its a magnesium def was caused by something else.

Lol...the best way to break down organic matter for freeded up food for plants is to cook it anerobicly then introduce air, that brings in the bennies!

It stinks to high hell and yuck! But it works.....if you do it right

A tbsp of molases to a gal of water is just crazy! If fermented you could use it as a stand alone nute....biobizz is basically that....but imbalanced! Balanced diet!
