What defiency or excess does this look like?


I added lime at the start plants 7 weeks old, feeding fox farm half strength and cal mag 10ml for 5 gallons. I thought maybe its to much cal mag and its blocking out potassium? Anybody know what this looks like?

Looks like it wants more cal mag to me @Beeken1992. 10ml to 5 gallons is only half dose so there shouldn’t be a lockout issue from cal mag. I had leaves like that on one plant in my flood table and I had to reset with water only then add 4ml /gal of cal mag to the reservoir. It solved the problem but the bad leaves were toast.

Whats your runoff look like?

I would check ur ph in ur soil cause lime will cause it to go to acidic u want ur soil to be 6.5 to 6.8

Edited to add more info.

Dolomite lime does not lower pH . Dolomite lime raises pH by adding calcium and magnesium to the soil.

This. :point_up_2:

Lime will raise pH with a limit of about 7.0. Lime is most often used to buffer pH in a cannabis grow. I layer in a half-cup of lime when I am filling plant’s final pots.
