What soil are you using and have you calibrated your pH meter recently? (cuz I suspect the pH you think you're using is not what it actually is, jmo)

You can put a tablespoon of Epsom salts in a gallon of water and spray those leaves because they need magnesium but you've got to figure out what you're screwing up with your pH that's causing the issues in the first place?

I use only Apera meters, they start about $45 on Amazon, they're the best investment I've made, and I suspect proper pH would end your issues as well, Best of luck!
I use Biobizz AllMix soil and I use a "maual" PH toolkit, not a pen meter...
And the PH is still too high.
Would it help if I'd PH water to like 5.5-6 and will just "flush" w/o nutes
I believe there're plenty of nutes already. Got nothing to measure PPM though.
With this grow I'd say that my primary mistakes were:
- Taking too hot soil (2.4 ppm)
- Ignoring PH levels 3/4 time of the grow
- Watering too often sometimes - not letting soil to dry out properly (though didn't have signs of overwatering ever)
- Used only Bloom nute for some time which probably brought nitrogen deficiency

so I'm not positive that's magnesium, your early pictures I thought it was but it doesn't matter you going to have to lock down your pH somehow, pH strips are inexpensive and accurate, you might want to consider them, there about six or eight bucks for a bunch of them on Amazon, also start using balanced nutes, Alaskan fish will do, all in all I've seen much worse

I wouldn't recommend any stunts just balance your pH at 6.5 probably what's going on is from pH bounce already, plus I just read what you've been feeding, glad you're on the fish fert now I'm not much into foliar spraying but I might mix some fish fert up and spray my plant?

Third day of drying. Still perfect conditions.
Getting the jar for storage today.
Thank you all for all your advices and patience with my noob questions :)
My next and last post will be dedicated to the smoke experience.
Good luck you all with your grows!
