Shares tent with her sister AND same age Afghan and no issues on that one.
(Afghan is moving to another tent this coming week now that they are bigger)


The plant in question is in the back on the left side

Bump up that input ph closer to 6.8. Also pick up some plain epsom salt and add about 1/4 tbsp to your mixture on non feed days. Fox farms nutes never have enough magnesium for these plants.

Thank you @BobbyDigital - I upped the cal-mag a little in the nutes feed but didn’t want to overdo it so thought it best to ask. Epsom salt is something I always have so I will try that!

Just make sure it’s not fragranced epsom. The problem with using calmag to help with magnesium levels is you’re adding calcium and nitrogen that you may not need. Fox Farms is fine with calcium; it’s the magnesium that’s lacking so hit it with straight magnesium.
