I got some kind of defeciency leaning twords calcium. despite calmag n my best efforts things are getting worse. pretty sure my issue is messing 6 month miracle grow and overwatering early(soil took a min to dry)

strain auto ak and auto kush

weakening stems and brown spots on leaves no bugs can I get her to go another 20 days? Under 300 actual watt cfls

All pictures are the auto ak auto Kush seems to be doing better after the calmag treatment

3 weeks into flower

no slow in growth either how do I baby her the rest the way thru? also pretty sure I'll start losing leaves in 7 days or so but since it's only fan leaves should I worry it might actually help penetration lol....what a fail grow

are you feeding cal mag? whats was your ph?
what kind of soil did you use?
I am using miracle grow 6 month and I started 2 ml cal mag per gallon of water 2 weeks ago when the prolblem got worse ( I don't like to use nutes if I don't have to) my run off tonight with phd water of 7.0 and 1 and a half Tbs of added organic lime to the top of the soil and watered thoroughly was 6.2-6.3 I tried not to water her early because of the strong release nutes I've given her 3 doses of 1/4th strength Dina bloom over 5 week period im leaning twords a lockout which is why I added the lime as my run off last watering was 5.3

i think it might be the lime, lime contains calcium and if youre adding calmag as well thats even more calcium. goodluck stay lifted :bigjoint::peace::leaf:

pretty sure it's not to much calcium due to the fact the problem was the reason I started calmag as the problem worsened i decided to add lime to raise ph and add more calcium like I said pretty sure it's lockout.

Add some Epsom salt to your watering schedule, its cheap. Miracle grow soil isn't the best. I would still use nutes at 1/4 strength every other watering or water, water 1/4 strength nutes and so on

so the spots started before you used cal mag or lime? that definitly looks like a calcium deficiency to me. whatever you do dont add epsom salts and lime, if youre already using cal mag. that will bring you more problems.

yes exactly I startevusing them to correct the issue. I came to the conclusion it was a lockout caused by ph problems my tap water was at 8.5 and run off was coming out at 5.3 the lime last night brought it up to 6.2amd I watered with 7.0 (ph down op)and she has alreadyss shot out a ton of pistols after adding lime last night.so switched water and already added lime( wouldnt of if I saw ur post yesterday. it's def a cal def but miracle grow ain't letting her eat. Looks to me like I got one choice let her eat her leaves and hope the castings and lime help or let her go the next 16 days and hope I get atleast a quarter off her....any advice fellows first time having this issue I've always used miracle grow but this batch smelled moldy and actually had white mold growing on top of soil after a few waterings(I've since fixed that issue) why is it always my girls that get cal def? I can let a damn male go with no nutes and they give me no fuss. if I wouldn't of a few hundred on a scratch off today Id be pretty upset buds still look nice. auto kush seems to be recovering and doing well on new growth. help me fix m ak guys. sorry stoned

also added a half inch of castings today for extra calcium not feeding no more calmag the lower dosages ain't helping only fed her that 3x

You are doing/changing so much shit by the time you get it figured out, if you do, you're not going to have any idea what you did to fix it. Adding a bunch of calcium isn't going to fix the damage that has already occurred. The necrotic rust looking spots won't go away and might even get worse. Adding too much calcium can give you magnesium uptake problems.
