ok 400w hps, secret jarding dr120w tent, 5 gal smart pots. 1 pakistan ryder 1 haze auto. They are on day 38 since both seedlings broke ground. They were planted in recycled happy frog soil. My last run went to complete shit in the last month of flowering for photoperiods and i dont exactly have the budget i had at that time. I did however throw high quality castings, jamaican guano, etc back into the soil before i planted the autos. Well long story short im feeding the autos with General Organics GO Box. Im using distilled water when i feed. The water phd at 7. the run off at about 6.6.

Anyways i started noticing the problem first when the very tips of leaves(i mean it was the smallest tip of yellow but noticeable) on the plant were turning yellow. So i feed them again adjusting my mixture thinking they needed nitrogen. Then yellow pin spots began appearing in clusters on certain leaves around the plants(started on lower half first, but not on every leaf as i said). Then i started noticing tiger striping(started turning yellow; leaves would be striped green and yellow). Then i noticed Some necrosis going on like little brown spots of death closer to the tips of leaves. Oh i forgot at one point during this i saw signs of i think its a Ca def. when the serrated edges of leaf yellow? anyways i saw that going on too. It was just a bad deal going on in that tent. Anyways i slowly flushed my ladies. I have a certain way i flush...i dont like to drown my roots so as i said i slowly wash the soil. Anyway my plants are starting to get their green color back. Some leaves mid way up the plant in the very center have completely went back to green. I still see necrosis in spots tho (getting better) and most of the plant is still yellow. Now I know they arent stunted too bad bc they are still maturing noticeably. One of them has gotten alot frostier(buds havent formed much more though) and the other has gotten a little frostier but alot of bud growth.

My question is when do i feed them again? sorry i have no good pics due to shit camera and a sun in my tent..but maybe i described well enough. Also recently the leaves on top have curved into a J shape while kinda pointing upwards a little. Really dry some im thinking that is just a little heat stress?

I would give them a quarter of the nutes your next watering and see how it goes and gradually increase with each watering! Your gonna love the auto i had a 60 day lemon auto from dna genetics and on day 60 i harvested and got 3 ounces of dried medicine from it! So im curious how your haze auto does because i was looking at one like that for my next go! But back to your prob i would gradually re introduce your nutes and up it a quater each time until you get full power or your prob comes back and then you will know there limit for nutes! Just my two cents!
