Yellow Leaves-Green Veins-HELP PLEASE!

High everyone, I am a veteran grower of 35 years (mostly outdoor), but I am diggin' indoor gardening.:weed: I'm using a 400w MH, but will switch to 600w HPS to finish off the flowering period.

Ok I have been wrestling with one Barneys Farm Tangerine Dream seedling. It popped out of the soil this way-from day one. Every since then, I have been trying to get this thing green. I have:
-flushed
-put in new soil and pot Fox Farm Ocean
-foliar fed and root fed magnesium (my first suspect)
-infused FF's Grow Big and Big Bloom (half-strength.)

This plant was started the same time with all the other TD plants you see. Same dirt, same everything. All the rest look ok, but this is really baffling me. No matter what I do, it always looks this way. pH is 6.8, run-off is 6.2.

Now I'm thinking it's zinc. So I bought some zinc 50 mg.

Now, how much to dilute with water? How much water? I'm looking for a safe mix ratio here.

This strain is highly rated (25% THC) sativa dominant strain. It is tough to grow I must admit, because everything has to be perfect. And it's not! :wall:

Yeah, lot's of twisting going on dude. I'd run the down the checklist but don't over-correct on anything you suspect. Good luck.

I am seeing uniform discoloration on mine. If this ever produces good buds, I'm naming it "Piss." As long as it doesn't taste like it.

Note: I juts threw some zinc in there. Iron will be next if this thing doesn't green-up. I'll flush before adding anything new.

I started off with nothing at the very beginning in FF's OceanSoil. No nutes.

Then as her sisters started to green up, this one did not. Only in the veins. So I tried everything. I even one day got so frustrated, I doused her with full strength Miracle Grow, just hoping for some kind of response.

None. I have been flushing, changing soils, used some 1/2 strength nutes (all FF), and she looks as yellow as day one. :(

I'm getting sorta the same thing going on with my RP OGkush but its not quite as all green veins and yellow leaves like yours mostly lower to middle. I'm 20 odd days in flowering and changed soil(new soil under smart pot) also to help green up. Just did it today so will see. Hope you find your solution I will be watching. Keep us updated on progress.

I once had similar problems with Zn/Fe/Mg/Co, all my tops (new growth) went yellow (almost white). My problem was too high PH, as most of these elements are best absorbed at a lower PH.
They greened up in 3 days.

However, your PH sounds good - I guess your problem is something else.
