Started this Gorilla Glue on 12/29. Transplanted to 5 gallon air pot on 1/20. Coast of Maine Stonington blend, 2 Vivosun VS1000 lights at 75%, have used only ph'ed water with silica, molasses, and epsom salt mixed in. Just wondering why the leaves are discolored and why there are some spots on them. Any observations or advice are appreciated.

Are you PHing before or after you mix everything together? Looks like either it's hungry or the ph is off causing a deficiency.

Went to my local grow shop today and take to them about it, he said the same thing about the pH. Suggested some Recharge to fix it so I bought some of that.

Real Growers Recharge is a good product just know it does contain KELP which contains hormones that can cause some plants to do weird stuff, in my personal experience Recharge was causing a few strains including ETHOS Mandarin Sunset and SYMBIOTIC Punch Cookies to fox tail badly where the buds were growing calyxes on top of calyxes. Once I cut recharge out the same plants grew normal buds.

The point about PH I was making is you want to test & adjust your PH of your nutrient solution AFTER you've mixed everything. You said you were using "ph balanced water" which makes me think you were PH balancing the water, then adding the nutrients, then feeding where you should be mixing nutrients, testing PH, balancing PH then watering.

Yeah kelp can cause heavy foxtailing when used past week 3~4 of flowering, IME.

When I ran Ionic I had the same problem with using their Nitrozyme and only used it in veg as foliar & root drench. Then running cyco their ryzofuel did the same thing, read the label and it says kelp. :(

I don't give the plants any kelp based products anymore at any period. I do feed microbial supplements in coco.
