Is she hungry or ??

Mephisto 3BOG that is 31 days since sprout. Coast of Main Stonington blend soil in 5 gallon fabric pot. This started about a week ago and has slowly gotten worse. I amended with coast of main stonington blend plant food (5-2-4) five days ago at 2/3 strength (scratched into soil and watered). Plant has had nothing else aside from tap water (our tap is around 220ppm and ~7.0 ph which I do not adjust and let the soil buffer). I do plan to water with recharge tomorrow.

The pictures make it look worse than it is do to being under led lights.

Thoughts?

1. The interveinal yellowing could be magnesium, manganese or zinc deficiency. 2. The leaves seem to have overwatering or overfertilization droop.

If they were my plants I'd probably try first some Epsom salts, and if that didn't help, then supplemental trace nutrients. I'd also let it dry more between irrigations.

Thanks, I’ll pickup some Epsom salts this evening.

This plant has been a mystery and has looked droopy since sprout. I let it dry back hard before the last watering till wilting and after watering it ‘perked’ back up to what you see below (Plant on the far right).

Keep ur medium dry but also enough moist it doesn’t cap . calcium is if not the hardest to keep the level of intake up so I suggest using non calcium nitrate exp when in flower and use organic alt for such. for example shrimp and crab are. Good calcium source and also chitin. use for every 50 gal fo soil 1 cup, just top dress it

the issue I see with many feeding schedule but also needs of calcium they depend on calcium nitrate and that’s asking for xannabis wise a bad choice.

besides that lift those pots and make sure your giving ur plants enough time to dry out, I suggest also as ipm to have yellow traps on every other plant or every 2x2 and make sure u don’t have any fungus gnats or misc. if u see more than 10 FG per week on a trap means ur overwatering and also u need to kill both larvave and adults. Like any pest def can be a decrease in overall yields and quality if unchecked

Thanks for the tips. I had yellow sticky traps out until a week or so and only had maybe 6-8 gnats from the entire tent. I am waiting long enough between watering that the soil develop a cap or had surface so maybe it needs more water.

I have Coast of Maine fish bone meal (5-13-0 with 18% calcium) that I had planned to top dress with in a week or so.

Looks hungry and those brown tips mean you definitely could use something to feed more

Wait till it’s dry but do things to change ph, use h2o2 and baking soda and vinegar to ph it’s more natural or you could get your self some ph booster or something like that

Gave her a gallon (not much runoff surprisingly) of 6.6 ph water with a tsp of Epsom salts and 1/2 tsp of Recharge. Soil was dry and pot light. Hopefully the interveinal chlorosis subsides over the next few days.
