You realize that mix #4 has virtually NO phosphorous, don't you? Now Google up some images of Phosphorous deficiency. You'll find it looks exactly like what you have.

How long have you been hitting it with the Koolbloom?

That explains it then.

I think what happened is your plants went into flower and had no phosphorous to draw from to begin with, or very little. By the time you notice it, the damage is done.

You're on the right path now though. That Koolbloom has a good bit in it and should bring it around. You need to forget the leaves that are already damaged. They're never going to get better. They're done. Just keep an eye on your new growth. If they are looking fine, then you're on your way to recovery.

As soon as you get some new leaves growing, trim those damage leaves off. They'll just be sucking up energy better used by the new growth by that point.

Thank you I appreciate it!! I've been using koolbloom everywatering since I purchased it. Should I continue to until I flush for harvest?

Yes. Use it through the flowering stage just like you did the nitrogen heavy fertilizer through the veg stage. Follow the same rules too and don't use too much too often or you'll burn them.
