Do my flowers look right?

you probably have your answer, I didn't read the thread, but typical Calcium / magnesium deficiency happens often mid flower, get a cal/mag supplement and start applying on the flip to 12/12 next time.

Thanks man!


I hit the same problem this round aswell :/

Week 3 flower.

I'm pretty sure it's a cal mag deficiency. But is it possible I'm hitting a K deficiency too?


Here's a photo :

1.1-1.3 EC is often the sweet spot, as far some can say that.
Thats also often the range for nutrient ppm recomendations and what i get when i calc my desired nutes in hyfdrobuddy.

Yes I agree.


I actually over fed on purpose. I thought I would let the lower leaves go hungry and they would fall off. Saving me time. I won't need to trim them if they simply fell off. Well that would have worked if I only suffered from lack of N. My underfeeding also caused lack of K, CA & MG it looks like.

Next time I will simply continue feeding everything else and only drop the N. If I want to try this again.

You sure... Here's another photo.

I fed them 0.8EC, seems like it was too little. Then I jumped to 1.4 and they got burned. I'm sitting @1.1 right now.
All I can say is Flowering nutrients usually have plenty of K, I would remove those fan leaves, especially the yellowing ones and let light penetrate lower down in the canopy. Ive run much higher EC levels without burning but i guess it depends on how much light you have and PH.
Your first photos on page 1/2 were definitely cal/mag im not sure about your latest photo, are you in summer or winter, have you considered powdery mildew, probably unlikely but a thought, also have you considered lowering you light a bit. Only you know your environment

also have you considered super cropping, bending stems down to the same level and lower light accordingly.
