Yeah I thought that's what cal-mag was. Ca and mg . Nitro cal-mag?

calmag dolomite lime ( calcium and magnesium carbonate) and initially ammonium carbonate ( cationic nitrogen NH4) . it was never meant as a feed it was meant to precondition coco and then never be used again but then the NH4 was replaced with NO3 anionic N usually from calcium nitrate and people started using it as a feed because of nutrient lacking ine part feeds

Yes, i concur with the mag deficiency. Needs a lot of calmag. Red stems, leaves pulling sideways as they grow out... What you see now started a week ago. Also, the right amount of light can easily become too much light when plant health degrades. Otherwise, they look good. Cheers

a normal ppm of magnesium in a solution is around 50 ppm . so if magnesium sulphate Is 10% magnesium then that is 0.5 g/liter magnesium sulphate
 
Ok thanks, I used a pinch of epsom salts dissolved in the water. 1 plant recovered immediately. I scratched in a teaspoon of superthrive granules that also contain iron and the other plant is starting to green back up too. I believe epsom salts are magnesium sulfate,so guess I chose correctly. Like I said, I learn something every day
 
The soil was so depleted. I found out that this strain is normally vegged 5-6 weeks and switched 12-12 and flowers in 8 weeks. I didn't know so I've been stalling cause of the autos.
 
I will feed more as she greens up. I don't want to make sudden moves with this strain. I wish I knew the genetics. It was fucking fire but very picky to grow compared to everything else I've grown
 
Well the results are in. Both plants are doing a lot better. I defoliated them a lot this morning and I noticed that all the new growth is green again. Epsom salts,teaspoon of superthrive granules top dressed and things look a lot better. Thanks growmies, y'all helped and saved me money
 
That sorry looking plant is now healthy bushy and pistils are starting to show. It took forever to get her back but she looks good now
