Seriously, I would just water it again with only PH'd water, then water with Cal/Mag, Then Nutrients. If you break it up, it will help you diagnose. Doing this will only put you back a week.
Yea im still in veg so im good there. The problem is my soil is drenched right now and im using 5 gallon buckets so my soil wont be dry for another week. Does that picture look like nute burn to anyone? Im starting to think i have a bad room or not enough fresh air or something. Furnaces bring in fresh air, right?

People think I'm crazy, but I use B'Cuzz Coco Subtrate (Atami) with 40% perlite. You CAN"T over water it. CAN"T. So in situations of panic and stess like this, you can easily do what you need to figure things out. Put a fan blowing towards the soil to help dry things out a bit if you need, but definitely think of the Coco for next time man. I can't count the times I've screwed something up by not paying attention and being able to take the necessary steps to correct it saved my ass.

But the problem is definitely chlorophyll related bro. Those new pics look more like Mag deficiency. But your plant may need to catch up with your last feeding. What ever it is, your plants won't die it looks like so I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

Not sure if your liking my advice, so if you would like me to keep posting on your thread just pm me.

That pic looks like a mag or cal issue doesnt it? Im thinking since my soil is so wet I could foliar feed with the cal/mag. They have already gotten a dose of it a few days ago(1tsp) and i read from numerous places that the shit usually clears a cal or mag deficiency right up. So Im not sure. A few sprays couldnt hurt though, right?

Nah,

personally I foliar feed Nutes on occasion. Just make sure you dilute it because the residue may burn the leaves. After I foliar feed with anything, including Magic Green I always mist them with water an hour or so afterward so the residue is washed away.

now im reading that if it were a mag def my leafs would be pointing up( theyre not) or if it were a cal def the spots would have started on the youngest leafs( they didnt). i guess ill give it another day or 2 and if it gets worse ill flush again then feed 1/4 tsp of grow big and 1 tsp of cal mag. not sure what else to do. thanks

I just remembered that if you have the plants near a ozone generator they will show signs and symptoms of a mag deficiency.

Didi you get it sorted out? Those leaves, if they don't recover, I usually clip them in half as you would for clones to redirect growth.

Yea man, theyre back from the brink and the new growth is sick. You guys were a big help. Thanks.

Im not sure if there was one specific thing i did that helped or if it was a combo of things though, but as soon as i feed them 3 days ago they perked up. It could have been because i dropped the PH in my mix to 5.9. Could have been because i gave them a good dose of Grow Big which i had only been teasing them with up to that point. It was also the second time they were feed the Cal/mag so they could have finally gotten what they needed there. It was also the 3rd watering where i used RO from the store so i could have finally removed all the old salts from their pots. I also did not feed them any Big Bloom this time so maybe i had a bad bottle or something. Ive read of that happening.

So to sum it up, im really not sure. If i was forced to guess id say it was a combo of underfeeding and high PH that attributed to my problems. I was only watering/feeding every 8-10 days because my promix stayed wet, but now im thinking no matter what those pots should get a drink every few days.
