Its something to do with that for sure. I think repotting will help but ive never heard of much luck coming out of MG soil. Others will say exactly the oppisite but thats the nature of the beast. Do you have access to different soils? Roots Organic, Fox Farm anything like that. She looks a little bound up in that pot and I would try to find some alternatives for better nutes.

i've heard that too about MG but im watching closely and there hasn't been any major problems. I plan on switching soils once i start flowering

dont switch right at flowering. You need to go to your final pot size, veg for 10-14 more days then flower.

Not to disagree with anyone or start an MG debate lol! bUT, MG works fine as long as it is handled properly. The key is in watering. As we know the nutes are activated by watering so the more you water the more you feed. To me this is quite a simple way to do things. In soil, small issues can be noticed sooner and corrected quicker than any other medium. I water the girls in my new grow, that I did in MG with MG perlite. As they tell me, if I start seeing any yellowish tint or other indications of under feeding, I know it is time to add some water. I just give them enough to lightly moisten the root ball, and the next day or so they look better. I will admit that I normally use FF Happy Frog, but the MG was all that was available. This was one of them at 4 weeks...So MG will work for you, just be careful...Good Luck!

Thanks! LST is very easy. In the thread in my signature there is video on how to do it. The only thing I have done differently is to use bamboo sticks to hold them down rather then tying them. But that was just personal choice.

you should get some cal-mag, she needs it.

skinitti666, how much longer you got on those? I'd say about 3 weeks.

If it does indeed need cal/mag the soil will present it when watering. IMHO it needs no other additives.

Does that work because some people say that if you don't use enough water at a watering that your roots won't grow properly...because the roots are getting enough water without having to reach down towards the wetter soil usually found at the bottom of the plant, so do small amounts of water more often cause you any issues?
