Hi Capt'n,
I'm not at all happy with our new RUI photo limitations...and sorry to say dude, I got nothing from the pictures.

You say you give spring water...better check the EC on that stuff. What you want is "drinking water" which is same as RO. Some spring water is too high in minerals to work well on plants.

About your food...it's always better to measure EC or ppm then to rely on manufacturers dosing regimen.

I feed my vegging plants around ec1 and a bit higher in bloom.

Those girls are not getting enough food. Nitrogen is short would be my guess.
Either you are in a lock out situation from feeding to much and a fix for that is to flush each pot. If my wife isn’t home, I’ll put them in the bathtub so I can run a ton of water through.
The other fix is to give them more food.
U would know if you have been feeding them heavy or not.

looks low on mag

1 tsp of epsom salt per gal for the next few waterings then adjust as needed.

then you will probably be low on potassium next with a nute of only a 0-3-1 so look for the signs of that.

noob here by EC what do you mean still understanding every variable from ph ppm etc

CaptainOG,
EC is just one of those things you'll be learning. Essentially, it's a measurement of electrical conductivity which increases as dissolved solids increase. Meters all read EC and then internally convert that number to ppm. Usually an ec of 1 will give you 500ppm.

Some strains need more Mg and the Epson salts should take care of that. Drop to 1/4 tsp per gal once plant is looking better. A good maintenance dose...

Going add this in and see if it’s nitrogen

that is more than likely a kelp based product and I wouldnt use it or use it just this one time....you dont want to use kelp early mid - late flower

And that isnt going to fix the problem you are low on mag so do the epsom salt

see how the lower leaves are green and the top is faded and I can see the corner of your light which is an led and if it is an led that light with the fast growing hungry plant used up all the mag at the top even before it had time to translocate mag to the top.

maybe raise the light up a smidge as well

Stop flushing so much. Who in the world taught you to do such a stupid thing?

You are seeing Phosphorus deficiency. Key nute during flower. High demand. Gotta get that up. Extra bloom nutes or start using a bloom booster.
The light color at the top is lack of sulfur. Epsom salts to correct.

yoire using organic nutes and letting them break down and run out the bottom of your pot. Yoire already deficient. No need to flush or get heavy run off. As guy above said, you’re phosphorus deficient atleast. Could probably use a good all around feed. Something even in npk. Guys go way to off balance in flower and produce no better and usually inferior results.
