I am using mircale grow organic and I haven't fed my purple auto at all and she's about 45 days old older leaves are yellowing I'm 100% sure it's nitrogen def as its progressing to newer leaves . don't really got the nutes I want but which one should I use?

dyna-gro bloom 3-12-6. @ 1/2 tsp ( don't like the phosphate level and the nitrogen levels are lower then what my girl needs)

KGRO
All purpose plant food
24-8-16 @ 1tsp per gal of water... is there a way I can dilute this down to be more like 7-2-5 it involves math but not smart enough to do it need help guys.

i wouldn't feed the kgro alone that late in flower...that's a lot of N

i think i would mix 1/4tsp dyna grow and 1/2 tsp KGRO per gallon together

what's the reasoning behind this just curious

I figured it easy to much nitrogen that's why I figured if I gave it 1/4 tsp it would make the nitrogen around a 6-2-4 solution?

it's my friends it's his first grow and I've been growing awhile but haven't delt with a n defeciency before. I can get pictures of them tomorrow

the other plant is in a diffrent soil with 6 month fees miracle higher in nitrogen isn't showing any yellowing

just curious, are you unable to buy other nutrients other than what you have listed? there are many out there that would help in your situation such as Earth Juice Elements Grow. NPK is 16-0-0 at 3/4 tsp per gallon of water, you could taylor this into your nutes as needed. it is an organic nutrient, cost is around 16 dollars per quart.

maybe I misunderstood your first post.. I read it as if you where going to feed either the fert that high in N and low in K or the fert that's low in N and high in p,K

since one is high in N and one is low it made sense to marry them together to get something closer to what youd want...

N 3+24 = 27
P 12+8 = 20
K 6+16 = 22

27/ 2 = 13.5
20/2 = 10
22/2 = 11

N 13.5
P10
K 11

i spent a minute to do the math

if you mix it 4ml/gallon of the bloom mix from dyna with 1ml/gln of the high N mix

it will yield

N 95
P65
K88

which is very close to what you want...its a little low in K but since your in soil I think itll work just fine
