Does this look a nitrogen deficiency?

Hello …

I’m growing some ILGM Northern Lights autos indoors in a Mars tent under a Mars TSL2000 using organic water only super soil in 3 gallon fabric pots . The plants blew up , were very healthy and were bushy and over a foot tall within 9-10 days and were doing great . Now I’m in week 2 of flower and having some deficiencies . They have been a little neglected due to me having some health issues and may have been slightly under watered ( only using ro water and stump tea and molasses once a week ) I’ve been keeping up with them better but it doesn’t seem to be helping . Any input on what this looks like ? If it is a deficiency can anyone recommend an amendment to use for organic soil ?

Thanks !

Same thing I was thinking. Super soils are sometimes not so super and peter out in flowering as you see here. When I did organic growing, I used a high phosphorus seabird guano during flowering, a couple spoonfuls on top of the soil and watered in every week.

Thank you ! All of you guys are awesome ! I will give her a try !

You need a ratio of about 486 going into flower(down to earth makes a good flower mix) I usually give 12 tablespoons week 0 and 8-10 tablespoons at week 2 of flower. Your deficiencies are definitely look like nitrogen and phosphorus.

I just hit the hydro store and grabbed this before I saw your post . What do you think about this ?

That’s fine you’ll probably just need to get bloodmeal from the local store and 1 Tablespoon molasses and 1 teaspoon of Epsom salt each watering is a great source of potassium and cal mag

Thank you so much ! So you think I’ll be ok with the bat guano and this ? Just grab some potassium

Ah that’s basically Just a measured dose of Epsom salt and calcium you’d still need nitrogen , not a ton but about half as much bat guano you add( that’s what bloodmeal is 12/0/0 but earthworm castings are fine in a pinch)

Thanks again ! I’ll get some bloodmeal but I do have earthworm castings , how much would you recommend to add ?

Let’s see about 8 Tablespoons bat guano and about 16 Tablespoons of earthworm casting should get your levels corrected massage them into the top inch of your soil then immediately water after and they should start to help in 3 days to a week (it won’t fix the damage though just prevent more damage)
