Weird Pheno or Issue

Hello,

I believe that I have a weird Pheno but I want to test my belief by allowing the experts at Rollitup to challenge it. I am a philosopher, thus, I am comfortable challenging my own beliefs to attain truth.

I have this weird Pheno. The plant is a Purple Pug S1 (I made it). The medium is 7:4 Promix HP: vermiculite. The feeding, though all other plants are fine with same nutrients, is Remo's Nutrients plus Fish Emulsion (removing now that plant is beyond seedling stage and have a plant) and Grotek Monster Grow Pro.

If you look at the photo, then you can see that new growth develops like army camouflage but later matures to its proper chlorophyll-filled greenness.

I have never seen anything like this, and like I said, the other plants are fine with the same nutrients.

Do I have a weird Pheno or do I have a sickness?

Unfortunately only time will tell. I've had both. Some grow out of it and some never get healthy. Good luck!!

Thank you for your response. I hope that she makes it.

My guess is, it's a nutrient issue, post a couple of pics of the other plants or at least the plant on the right of that plant as it looks like it could have a similar early/minor issue.

Lights are currently off, but like I already said, all the other plants are fine. It is only this one.

I said that this was the only plant.

Here is the one to the right.

What's the theory of adding fish emulsion to a salt based nutrient?

The theory is using fish emulsion on seedlings until they are ready for regular nutrients. I also use it when I transplant.

Have they always been droopy? That's all I'm seeing in the photos. Though I know I tend to take photos when watering, so whether before or after they're droopy.

And yeah, the other girl is looking better. I'm just trying to think of what would cause leaves to take their sweet time get in the proper range of green for healthy. They get there based on the lower leaves. I'm interested to see a final best guess lol

No, and they were watered about 16 hours before the photo.

It could be a form of variegation. I am experiencing the same thing in a single phenotype of Tuna Kush. The plant seems perfectly healthy and is growing very well....but it has that same type of blotchy-ness. I am going to take mine all the way to see what happens.

It looks like a deficiency. That plant might require a different dose of nutrients.

I read what you posted...... too my Oldman eyes, the plant on the right looks like it has a similar issue but not as advanced. My opinion is its a nutrient issue.
