This is my first grow, still learning a lot but thought i'd come here for help from more expirienced growers. any and all help greatly appreciated. As far as plant info goes, the two plants in the back of the tent are thc bomb autos from MSNL and the front one is a white widow auto also from MSNL, all planted in coco with perlite and are currently on week 8 / week 3ish of flower. I recently moved them into a new tent because the nodes were growing into my hps light (ik thats bad for them i ran out of space and was waiting on the new tent). I am mainly unsure of what to do right now because these various issues and leaf patterns could be a lot of issues. for starters some of the nodes that grew into the light have burnt leaves around the buds but then also yellow/yellowing leaves that have red stems on the affected leaves. I topped once around week 3 and did lst once in week 3 and once again before switching to the bigger tent last week and defoliated once in late veg and once around week 6. I also believe i was overwatering a bit and noticed the plants were drinking less since flowering (is that normal?) so I switched to watering every other day which the plants seems to be okay with. Additionally, when i moved the plants into their new tent i turned the hps up from 250w to 600w (i have one of those dimmable ballaststs) and made sure to keep the plants about 14-18in from the light (i did this because i read that the more light the better but idk if its bad for them rn). for nutrients ive been using the GH flora series micro, grow, and bloom with some calimagic for ca and mg. Looking online i believe the issue is a magnesium deficiency because that can also cause potassium deficiencies. I saw people talk about adding epsom salts to their water to help with the mg deficiency. I also saw people talk about watering gypsum into their soil to also fix this issue. Basically just asking if anyone can vouch for these methods or recommend any that worked for them.
