Diesel, 60 - 70 day flower, they’re at day 50. They’re in soil (FFOF), amended every 21- 28 days with Dr. Earth veg and bloom, Recharge tea every 2 weeks. Ph since starting flower has been 6.5 - 6.8. Any ideas what’s going on? This is my first organic grow. First thought it was the natural fade starting, but now I don’t think so, with the crispy spots

Are you using molasses in the tea?

Many times the extra teas cause an imbalance in the feed and that locks out phosphorus etc. Too much molasses has detrimental effects. Just my input, I'm not an expert.
The Recharge teas are very hard to adjust the ph, I have to use about 4X as much ph down to even get it to 7, so it may well be something wacky with the ph that’s caused a lockout

I could be wrong but aren't you supposed to ph water first then add recharge when used in soil?

Your plants are fine, I've had plants burnt to shreds and they still turned out great :)

My 2¢ -

Why both Veg AND Bloom ?
Why Recharge every 2 weeks ?

Photos a little blurry but leaf also seems to show brown speckling as with a calcium deficiency.

I would think since they are in bloom - BLOOM only.
Besides every time you “ feed “ it - it needs time for fertilizer to breakdown ( usually over a couple weeks ) plus it is a waste of product to run two on top if each other.

Now we come to Recharge - you are wasting product by adding every 2 weeks ( regardless what label says ) - i add myco a couple of times throughout grow and have never seen the benefit of over application.

Lastly - you dumping excessive PH down into a “mix “ when all you have to do is mix in tap water alone .
There is absolutely no reason to ph in that container grow.
FFOF has amendments to control ph and doesn’t need fussing with .

Example : Take a common houseplant , embedded in same soil …. Are you “ ph adjusting “ that plant ?

Basically your issues are from your hand. Your over application of various things. You should always let the main soil medium feed the plant , maybe a couple of tablespoons of bloom here and there. Not a witches brew that now caused some lock out and other things.

Lastly - you could have cut 95% of your problems by topdressing more fresh FFOF instead … then just water in - NO waste of excessive products or fertilizer.
FFOF has all of the required nutrients that the plant already was accustomed to.
