No
Actually that is ether high or low Ph My money is on high as he is in soil.
Don't waste your time flushing that is for when you over fert. or on the third water when feeding fert. and also for flushing for finish.
If you are not feeding and the soil is good till the end then you are just washing away the good stuff.
There are test kits that use dry soil. You can get your hands on one at a nursery tomorrow. Then you can change your Ph with confidence on your next watering (or feeding)..
K.I.S.S.
I think you will figure it out.

Haze, pH is a value that is created by fert content in soil. If the pH is bad, the cause of this is the fert content.
Huntherze, how can something truthful be useless? Seriously, stop posting in these forums. All you're doing is confusing people with your gibberish.

As already stated.
I think it's been stated quite clearly the general consensus by all of us is ph.
No need for any hostility.

Where's my hostility? I explained the pH value issue. That's all. No hostility there.

If the night time temps get low depending on relative humidity condensation droplets can form on the leaves surface. When you kick on your HPS or MH lights the moisture on the leaves acts as a magnifying glass and bleaches them. The plants look too young and in good dirt to have a deficiency. If you circulate air during the dark period and keep dark periods warm you can avoid this. That is a pretty crop bro I love the sativa leaf structure. Absolutely gorgeous.

I have to agree.
If your ph, and ec checks out tomorrow. This would be my next step.

I add poultry manure, minced banana peels and EWC to the bottom 1/4 of my 5 gal. buckets with happy frog and FFOF. Half way up I add half cup of Epsom salts.

I'm going to guess that the PH comes back fine and it hasn't been getting enough Sulphur.
Reason I say that is its 3 weeks into flower, so soil may be lacking, especially if it hasn't been up potted lately, and only a small feed of Bloom given. We are in soil so this problem became a problem 1 to 2 weeks ago. Well a bigger problem. Soil buffers and it takes time for problems to show.

Agreed.
That's a good point too.
Didnt you find your leaves veins went yellow too though? Almost highlight yellow. Like a blanket of yellow on the tops? Leaves still soft too. Just missing green?
I found when it was iron. The leaves would end up losing all their colour. They'd be white, and crispy.
The leaf in the first post. Looks just like iron chlorosis to me.

I'm a notorious under feeder in early-med veg. I'm to lazy and get distracted by whats flowering, so yes I get yellowing but its from underfeeding in general. To be honest its something I'm going to have to concentrate more on and have with the newest cycle.
Your probably right..it could well be Iron..ive just never had an iron problem and coming at the problem from a different angle. At the end of the day we are all just attempting to supply a checklist- yours was a good one.

Guerrilla, if you don't those additives time to break down before you plant, they don't do any good. You're trying to compost essentially. That's takes months to break materials down to the molecular level that roots can absorb.

magnesium sulphate takes care of that. AKA Epsom salts! Everybody needs it for soil grows. Nitrogen and magnesium deficiencies dominate the problems encountered by soil growers.

I just add .5 of Cal/mag to every watering. Ive started hitting PK13/14 at switch to for a week and another hit mid way thru.

I do it because my plants respond to It. It makes a more prettier and vibrant plant. I operate at higher temps 85ish and like to keep my soil damp. Night time at 75 deg. If it works I roll on with it. Some organic materials break down rapidly some slow. Raw fish parts, nana peels and some manures have a fast break down rate. Guano teas and fish emulsion and urine are immediately available.

You can write little programs to automate a web browser and make a fake user that likes everybody’s shit, or whatever based on a set of rules that you get to define. The script kiddies are into building bots these days, little weirdos.
