I am pretty sure it's mag def but I want some other opinions. The biggest plant is showing red and purple stems really bad and this leave below. The other 2 aren't as big and the stems aren't as red but they have the discolartion and rust spots also. Ive been giving them tap water at 210ppm with at least 20-30ml cal mag in 2.5 gallons water when every watering. Which is about once a week. I give general organics every other watering. Roots organics Greenfield soil in 3 gallon buckets. The strain is peyote pancake its 3 weeks into flower. Stinks like a mofo already. The strain does have a lot of natural purple so I was wondering if that could be the cause of the all the stems going purple or red on the big one. Thanks.

Hey ya know that looks like cal isue to me more so then mag... Ive had very similar isues in veg and my case it was due to poor watering habbits... I had purple stems along with it too. (But stems don't always tell the whole story as you know)

Well I let my pots dry out way too much then they got hydrophbic on me ha. So I then over watered to make up for it. I had same looking isue. They snapped out of it tho... It looks to be calcium lock out to me... Which can be caused by a number of things...
I could be way off... But thats what the isue apears to be imo.
What is your ppm after you add your calmg? Are you using calmg+ by general organics?

G.O cal mag should stay good for a long time... With 200ppm tap water I would go real light on the calmg... Maybe think about using r o filters? Just a thot...
Good luck!

I flushed with 6.4ph water and checked the soil runoff it was 6.6ph. So I know it's not nutrient lock out. Should I just dose the crap out it with cal mag.

What part of your using too much Calcium is not getting to you????
All the Calcium you've already thrown in her has LOCKED HER OUT...
So sure, dose the fuck out of her with Calmag.

Ha he ^ he is prob right... Id go with your tap water for a wile... Too much calcium (especially in the wrong ratio with your mg and n) will cause a lock out as Well... Also your run off and root zone ph can be very diff in organics... Do you feed salts? Or liquid organics? Or teas and dry amendments?
