Out of range Growmie, soil PH range is 6.3-6.8 and coco is 5.8-6.2. What type of medium and nutrients are you using and your feeding routine. Could be PH or low nutrients causing the calcium deficiency, are you monitoring run off PPMs? 🤟 ---

Im using fox farm ocean forest. Im using ilgm nuets. My first grow went great. The only thing i did different was packing the soil. Could i have packed the soil to tight? ---

Soil needs the ability to drain, the FFOF should have enough perlite for this. Not sure about the statement of packed, you can only put so much soil in a pot 🤟
