I’m 99% sure I have a potassium issue here. Im in week 3 of flower. It started down low and worked its way up into the colas. I thought at first it was just old leaves dying off but thats obviously not the case. Im using AN Connoisseur bloom nutes. Is there something I can add to correct it?
Nah that’s a calcium issue though potassium and magnesium can effect calcium intake
So you’re saying that not getting enough K and Mg would cause a lack of calcium intake?
Reverse that she may have to much potassium and mag so it could be pulling at calcium reserves just make your mix have slightly more cal
Its rare to get a phosphorus def in cannabis plants and a potassium def looks the same as a potassium toxicity i would add a bit more cal/mag to ur mix and see how it goes
Thanks! Ill do that tonight
I fed normally when watering tonight but doubled the normal dose of Calmag. We will see what happens.
One thing I noticed was the two plants that stretched really bad and arent pushing flower out much yet had a lot of runoff. The other two which have nice dense colas and not stretching had very little runoff. All 4 plants are WW photos.
May need to increase the amount given to them. You want to have consistent runoff volume.
Will do @beardless. I just found it odd how it worked out. Thanks
@Aussie_autos its been a couple days since ive gave them the double dose of Calmag. It seems they are continuing to get worse. Its getting up into the new growth pretty good now. Do I need to be patient for a bit longer to start seeing a turn around or should I consider a different approach?
Ok i was sure the cal/mag was going to help ,u mite have to give more potassium up ur pk abit more not to much just abit
Where is your ph at? That will cause probs and can take a bit for roots to start uptaking if fluctuated out of range too much. Out of tune meter or in my cases…lazy…can fool you. If just cant getem right can flushem out and set them straight again. Just a thought.
@Storm the two slurry tests I did came back with pH of 6.4 and 6.2. I make sure my pH pen is calibrated regularly
Do you know what it ended to being?
I didnt end up figuring it out. It got a little better as time went on but the damage was done. The bud off the two that flowered nice came out pretty nice.
