Sup brah!
Your plants look beautiful to me! I'm also growing out herbie's afghan since it was a freebie lol. But I think you're starting to get some deformed leaves and yellow spots due to pH issues.
Are you regularly checking the pH of your soil runoff water?

Yeah, it seemed really ideal. I put like a gallon of 6.2 pH water (I use liquid testing and I hate it) and it comes back dark green af. Like higher than 6.5 like maybe 7.0.
I water to 20% run off on a drain to waste schedule with GH Flora micro Gro and bloom.
I bought molasses too but I'm hearing it's useless from lots of people here. Used it anyways.
Happy frog soil (oh shit waddup) with 3 tsp of garden lime and it's 30% perlite.

Last watering was Saturday. I got the pH down to about neon orange (5.7? Give or take)
1 gallon jug with 2ml Gro 2ml micro 2ml bloom
And a tsp of hi Brix molasses.

Hmmm.. tbh I like your mix (I'm using happy frog too
) but might I suggest adding in some CalMag and try balancing out the pH around 5.6ish. I feel like the only bad thing about pre-bottled fertilizers are the salt build ups and the fact that is destroys beneficial organisms in the soil. But that's what I've been thinking, I could be wrong. I've been making my own compost tea mix and mah babies are luhvin' it

Just ordered a pH meter. New growth on plants looking better without any spots. Flushed on Wednesday with 6.0 water and the run off came back 6.5. soil pH might have been too high.Hmmm.. tbh I like your mix (I'm using happy frog too
