Magnesium deficiency? Maybe?

If you have a tiny plant in 10 gallons of soil, you won't need to add extra nutes. But, if you have bigger plants, they will eat a lot more and need supplementation earlier.

Also, if you get a lot of runoff when you water, you're leaching out the nutes, so you'll need to add them sooner.

I usually say it's good for a few weeks without anything, but like I said it depends on plant and pot size.
Thanks. I’m growing in 5 gallon pots and my plants are decent size. They are about 4’ off the ground, including the pot.

We’re you dosing at full strength?
I was pretty much following his final Earth Juice formula. But I started giving plain water too early. Earth juice makes some tasty buds. I turned it into no-till and am trying to just use dry amendments and water only now.

1/2 dose Big bloom & tiger bloom, quarter dose grow big, every other watering.
Did it get worse when you switched to just cal-mag? How much were you giving? You could be locking stuff out. Or that plant just wants more food.

I'd probably give plain water a couple times and see how it responds. If it looks like it's getting worse, I'd feed it. You kinda gotta be the judge since you can see it in person.

I was up until just shy of two weeks ago and then some others on this thread said to stop because OF has enough nutrients to last the entire grow.
OF does not have enough nutrients to last an entire grow. I'm not a soil grower but search on it you'll see lots of people have to supplement. Next why did you stop feeding and how did it look prior to stopping? If she looked better than start feeding her again. If you stopped feeding her because she was starting to go this way give her water. I hesitate to recommend flushing to clear excess nutrient to a soil grower because you can get under water quickly. @Tangerine_ can you take a look?

Soil works off a microbial herd that also adjusts your pH (I miss you @Dr. Who ) So theoretically you shouldn't have to do much other than make sure your pH isn't wildly acidic or alkaline.


Anyway here's a couple pictures of my plants to demonstrate I actually know what I'm doing. Be careful about whose advice you take. You'll get a lot of folks that will help you destroy your grow. Look for guys who have been here awhile and check out journals if they have them. Don't hesitate to ask to see a pic of their current grow.

The veg picture is from 6/23/2020 The flower picture is from a few days ago. It's a seeded Bodhi Space Monkey.

Best of luck with your grow. I need to get back to mine and start chopping.

It got way worse feeding with just cal-mag. I lost most of my big fan leaves.

I stopped feeding after I posted this original thread and it was recommended to me. Tha k you so much for the input. Your plants look great!

what are you using for medi
I agree.


Feed it then for sure like Curious said.
Thank you. Should I stick to the same dosing as before? (Half recommended dose of everything except Grow Big. 1/4 dose of that)?

Sounds like a good idea. If it likes the half dose you could give it more. I don't use the chemicals, so my advice isn't the best.
