If you’re only using distilled water you’ll need to start adding CalMag. Distilled has zero vitamins and nutes.

Also what nutrient lines are you using?

Add cal-mag next watering.As @Underthestairs mentioned distilled water has no minerals. Also check PPM runoff to adjust feeding.

Minerals was the word I was looking for… wake and bake. Not always great for my internal thesaurus

No extra nutrients. The potforpot was supposed to have everything from seed to flower.

Understood. Those brown spots are showing calcium deficiency. I’d go for CalMag (at least every other watering) and pH to 6.5 when you water. Those leaves won’t recover but look to healthy ones to be sure it isn’t spreading. Good luck

Awesome. Thank you very much. Any specific brand or kind I should look for? Should I remove those leaves or let them be?

The plant will get rid of them naturally. I’d pull them off they look soggy at any point. I used the CANNA brand before I started using the Jack’s 321, but that’s only because it’s the brand my local hydro store had when I needed it.

You’re welcome. Keep it up!

I used some cal mag on Friday when I watered.i have 2 questions.

  1. Do I use just 9nce or with each watering now?
  2. The plant kind of changed. Some pistils are turning red/brown. Is this usual? She is on day 61.

So I use a plant food that has those in it… which means I don’t actually have a great answer here. I’ve read in many journals when it’s discussed that people will CalMag every non feed watering. But let’s tag in a few people that can help @Myfriendis410 @Covertgrower

Pistils turning orange is normal, cal-mag should be added every feeding, or every other feeding.
