The plant is in its fourth week of flowering, using 10-15-10 Shultz liquid plant food at 50% strength.


All help is appreciated!

Too many sticks in your medium.
Plant seems to be taking care of itself, maybe feed it a bit of Epsom salts.

Don't feed it. It looks like soil. You can use earthworm casting or fertilizer tea though.

That plant is not suffering a nitrogen deficiency.

Alright, yeah its just some soil I had lying around for vegetables and fruits, some "organic" mix

Most of those "Organic" mixes have high percentages of poultry manure which has lots of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. I wouldn't feed it anymore fertilizer. On future grows you should try and get some soil more suited for cannabis. That soil is fine for vegetables and cannabis does fine in veg. The problems start to show up a few weeks into flower. Without really knowing what's in the soil it difficult to know what's going on. I'd just ride it out.

Compost is a broad term. The ingredients could include manure, grass clippings, tree trimmings, leaves, bark, etc... Most will have a high percentage of manure, chicken, cow, etc... That looks like it has a significant amount of wood in it.

Ok, so stop feeding it. I bought this other PROMix potting soil for tomatoes herbs and vegetables that I am using for my outdoor grow. It is much lighter than the other soil and has lots of perlite in it, it reminds me of cocoa. Next grow Illl be using that stuff as it does not have any added "organic" fertz.
