Boron or Iron

She's been through a lot by now
19 days into veg.

I flushed her 5 days ago and she dried out.
Grew well over that time, and I watered her last night.

Good response, though all new growth is still smallish.
Showing the signs of either boron or iron deficiency.

Here's to hoping that the feeding will give her the nourishment she is seeking now that her soil is flushed.

Older leaves are doing their best to survive, she went through a lot and is doing her best to grow.

I'd like to keep her in veg still and get her growth back so that she is producing larger leaves and nodes again before putting her into flower.

I do notice these shoots (pistons?) all showing themselves again

What medium, what nutes, what light? How old is it and in what size pot? Have you transplanted it at all?

Can't really address anything without more info. but happy to give an opinion with details...

Hey, thanks. She is in an organic soil blend topped with a coco blend.

For two weeks she had general organics (at the 1/4 dose and worked up to half dose) and then I over watered her, so the next week no food just flush and dry.

now she is on nectar for the gods (blue moon organics in Oregon) it is a calcium based line, had her first full feed of that last night.

the current light is; 315w 6500k and 105w 2700k cfl.

Temp is a stable 78 (75-80 depending on whether the window in my room is open, any time it gets over 80 I open the tent and re-calibrate, move lights or just allow for air to flow out.)

she is nearly two months old, I would say, will of had her for three weeks on Thursday and she was about 10in when I got her and was in a red cup.

i transplanted her into a 5 gallon fabric pot on oct 25th

Feed her man, see if she perks back up, you have some deficiencies going on. watch the new growth.

Is the organic soil blend straight from a bag or did you mix a custom "supersoil" type of blend?

I agree with topfuel that you should feed her, I wouldn't go more than 1/2 solution though. Should have asked but do you know what the PH of your water or soil is?

Also, curious if the watts you are quoting are "true" watts or "equivalent" watts?

It is really easy to over water a smaller plant in a 5 gallon pot. I can't really tell how large the plant is by the pic. Try not to keep it water logged.
Good Luck Man.

The soil was just a local organic out of bag blend. The cfl watts are a true 420w, and our pH is 6.4-6.7 (more right on at 6.4 1/2 to 6.5)

The coco I topped her with is of better caliber.
she is about a foot tall, I lst'd and topped her two weeks ago, so all growth has been to the lower and side shoots while she regenerates her top.

she was overwatered for about a week and then had a week to dry out (after a flushing) and I fed her on Monday night, full strength and the some, response is good.

Glad she is doing better, the organic bag soil will not provide nutes for long so definitely keep feeding but only every other watering and not at full strength. Your PH is good but you already know that i'm guessing. It looks like you might have some magnesium deficiency starting, you can put 1/2 tsp of epsom salt in a quart of water and do a foliar feeding or you can also water it into the soil. Dissolve the epsom in hot water before adding to your solution.
