The only reason I say don't use too much... I don't want you running in to a nute burn problem half way through flowering or whatever it is you're on. FUCK epsom salts or watever for now, never heard of them for fixing issues , been growing for a while. MAG DEF. AFFECTS EVERYTHING (It starts in small places and spreads everywhere, It's a fast acting problem but also there is THIS fast solution here I'm telling you about, run out to your nearest grow store ASAP. Clearly nothing else is working so you might as well give it a try. Also, you will have it for next time around regardless so GET OUT THERE AND GET SOME!

Thanks dude, just didn't wanna sound like another dick that was just putting in his 2 cents. And yea dude, you're camera isn't the best but i'm telling you cal-mag should cure it in a few weeks, you'll notice a difference in 24 hours probably. I don't know how long in to flowering you are, if it's too late just deal with in and remember what I had said for next time. But here is the link for the Cal-Mag I use

http://www.botanicare.com/Cal-Magtrade-2-0-0-P48.aspx

Don't follow the directions on the bottle. Use about 1/6th of a teaspoon per 1L of water the first time, and gradually build it up until you can use a quarter-half a teaspoon per liter of water.

You're plants look nice tho :)

Nearly don't mean shit it's either an organic grow of its not.. how's your ph?? If it's fine Epsom salt bro!! I wouldn't worry to much the bud looks good. .just keep moving forward and try your best to correct it..After a while these problems will just be little bumps in the road...eventually you won't have them because after you know how to correct them you know how to prevent them!

Don't add to much to the roots it's got to be a nutrient lock out try flushing your soil...and foliar feeding with the salt..don't over correct your problem...thinking its one thing when it can be several..

What kind of nutes and soil are you using? I used to get mag-def when using cheap potting soil and miracle gro nutes. Ever since I switched to Fox Farm potting soil and nutes I haven't had that problem anymore. If you invest in better soil and organic nutes you won't have to deal with that bullshit. You really will tell a difference.

I think what I did was use the epsom salt, however, it didn't really work that fast. Cal-Mag is prob ur best option. Just make sure you aren't feeding ur plants too much fertilizer bc it can cause nute-lock. Try Fox Farm nutes and soil next time though.

Not sure of the time frame of feeding, but foiler spraying is quicker, I believe. But yes, you need to figure out why it happened. I just took a shot in the dark with the high calcium in water thing. Perhaps the cal/mag could be a real help for your setup. Its a really popular additive.

Hmm , well anything with Calcium magnesium will help but it would be great if you could find a product that JUST included those two things. Also, if it's on the new growth right away you might have a little problem. You could have a small nitro def. as well which is also an easy fix

http://www.marijuanapassion.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=158412&d=1295751999

PLEASE take a look at that, It'll give you a rough idea of what to look for , start youtubing what certain def. looks like and things like that. Get to the bottom of it as soon as possible, and DONT flush it right after you fix your problem, wait a week or so and see how your plants are going. Then they could definitely use a nice water flush, not to hardcore though. Be gentle ;)


Sorry I can't reply so often, I work like 60 hours a week.

Hey bro its all a learning experience. I was just fortunate enough to meet up with one of the best guys I have ever met online, He trained me through almost every problem I had for an ENTIRE YEAR. My first crop, 2 plants, 1 and a half feet tall each ( low stress trained ) 2 ozs per plant. (Using 4, 42 watt cfls and 5 cpu fans for intake, exhaust and ventilation). You start small, you learn, you buy more things, you fuck up sometimes, but you always learn, just dont go to big or too crazy. Serious trouble in some states/provinces.
