What do you guys think? I have this one in a 2x4x7 grow cabinet. 2 fans for circulation, 1 p150 LED grow light. I'm using emerald harvest nutes. I just upped the micro a bit for added nitrogen. Along with liquid micronutes on yesterdays last feeding. I did a pot transfer to a 5 Gal 3 days ago but the yellowing was already there. We're on day 111 from germination. 18/6 light cycle. I did have 2 autos also in with this photo so its light source was limited most of its life. Day 90 is when the autos came out. I topped it a week ago.
Deficiency?

I've been using Emerald Harvest for a year now not using them at the moment but how exactly are you mixing the nutrients? Have you tried their recommended schedule? Your have the three part or two? What's your ph? Temps? Medium? Etc. . .

I'm using their micro, grow and bloom along with root wizard and cal/mag. I always start with micro. The guy who sold me their products said to use start with a half recommended dose then work your way up to full recommended dosage. He said to use the nutes every time she needs water. This is still my first run growing. My autos did finish first as expected. 1 of the 2 autos were successful. The unsuccessful auto yellowed early on just how this photo is starting to. Temps are always in the low to mid 70's. I was using well water thru all the plants life (ph 6.5 - 7) but just changed to spring water because the well pump needed to be changed so they ended up chlorinating the water. Ph has been at 6.0 - 6.5 with spring. I'm using Canna terra as a medium. I don't have all the bells and whistles for a grow as this is still my first run, so I don't know humidity levels.

What medium or soil are you using in the 5 gallon pot?
What size was the last pot?
How long was it in the last pot?
1 gal for the first 105 days. Canna terra is the only medium I'm currently using. I did start in kellogs organic soil for the first 40 or so days but switched to the canna terra because the soil was retaining a ton of water. There wasn't much flow even with perlite added to it.

You need to get that room temp up to 80* or close. Since LEDs have no IR, the leaf temp will be less than ambient, so you need to run warmer than you would with HPS/MH/T5. The leaf temp is, I am guessing, 70*. Also I would get a PPM meter.

That info should help people that know your soil and can help. I'm not familiar with it. That plant being in a 1 gallon pot that long made it difficult to keep happy, transplanting a lot sooner would have made the difference. If you just put it in a 5 gallon pot a few days ago, I would see if the new growth comes in healthy. I would water only without nutes to see what happens with the new growth.

That's correct always start with the micro with EH nutes and are you also using their Emerald goddess? I've used the three part before and I noticed sometimes I'd get that when not following up with their schedule.
And feeding very watering will start to cause some harm with it. Try feeding every other watering and trying getting their Emerald goddess it's a big plus.
When I had their products I was feeding every other watering using Cali pro a + b, root wiz, Emerald goddess, sturdy stalk.. and on the next watering I would do cal mag only. I went on with that schedule thru veg until I flipped to flower it changed of course . Cause now you have to add honey chime and king kola. But it looks like she will be fine. Just give her a plain watering with cal mag next watering and watch her closely. And try giving her the Emerald goddess too.
Ok, ill feed every other watering. I was told from 2 others that nutes should be every watering. Ill keep you guys posted on how she's doing. New growth looks nice and green but the end tips look crisp. Some of the older fan leaves feel pretty dry as well.

I'm not a nutes guy others can help you with that, but don't call the guy who sold the ferts to you one of the other guys. Sounds like you are talking about a grower when you are talking about a saleman.

Usually that happened to me the first symptom you stated when I wouldn't use their nutrients as recommend. The schedule they have is on point if you used them all the way they should. I ran their product hydro last Grow and I had amazing results. Personally I had better luck with the 2 part vs the 3 part but both still had great results.and yes with their line it's every other watering to feed so becareful maybe they're crisp due to constant feeds so starting them low was a good choice you made. But good luck brother hope all goes well keep us posted! Andbhappy growing!
