    What deficiency?

    You are correct in your assumption and your correction (Epsom) is the right one to make. I would simply add it (Epsom) to my daily feed schedule.

    First coco grow

    I would continue to dial in your pH with 5.8 being your sweet spot, +/- a couple tenths. You're short on Mg...Epsom salt is your cure. And if it were me, I'd scrap the nutrient line I was using once you've finished it. Any nutrient company telling you to grow in coco with a pH of 5.5 - 6.5...

    Nitrogen deficiency entering flowering stage

    Your plants are suffering from a Mg shortage....nothing more or less. Epsom salt is your friend.

    pale leaves and slow growth

    Oh the dreaded hybrid mix of soil and coco...I hope it works out for you. I've read too many posts here where that little combo of soil and coco causes a lot of people to struggle.

    pale leaves and slow growth

    What is your medium? Your pH is all over the board. It (your pH) needs to be at a corresponding level for your medium. Soil is pH 6.5, Coco and other hydro methods are generally 5.8 pH, but they are not interchangeable. In other words the lower pH doesn't work well in soil and the higher pH...

    Pest control and recovery help

    Webs, white spots....generally spider mites. Be vigilant; webbing means there are quite a few around.

    Can I save this?? Webs on one of my tops

    When spider mites web up the tops of your plants, you know you have an infestation. Sad part is, they are probably through out your garden now. Your best bet is to chop and clean...everything. Otherwise, buckle up, it's going to be a journey.

    Tips of leaves starting to twist/spiral

    Twisted / contorted leaves generally mean there's a pH issue...more inconsistent pH than anything...but your plant looks good. I wouldn't do anything but watch it over the next couple days. I have a girl going, and just the other day she had (1) fan leaf out of the entire plant, that was...

    Please help if you can

    I would double, triple check my pH meter and be sure it's working correctly and it's been calibrated. I would then check my pH, starting after a fresh re-up in the res, and check it daily to see what it's doing over time. What you're seeing is a lockout via pH or too much of something locking...

    Help diagnosing....Please

    What are you doing for Mg? What kind of ranges are you using in terms of your pH? You should pretty much shoot for 6.5, if you're in soil, and manage it within a couple points +/-. This is where I'd start.

    Help coco coir transplant shock/fluence 2i

    I would give them some Epsom for the Mg they need: purple petioles and stems I would get my pH up a bit more, say 5.7 -6.0; at a 5.5 pH you're on the ragged edge of deficiencies. I've only messed with CO2 once, and I ended up with those papery looking leaves; you may want to be sure you're...

    Hairs are prematurely red at the tips

    Perhaps you're rubbing up against them when you work on your plants? Have you sprayed anything? Are you sure you don't have a male / herm in the bunch? Those would be my three ideas on why this is happening.

    Fan leaves getting lighter in veg

    Dolomite will take time to break down and become available; typically. Be sure you have the time, otherwise, Epsom salt is your friend.

    Ugh the leaves.... what is this?

    Back off Nitrogen (N)....not your nutrients in general per se
  15. C

    Ugh the leaves.... what is this?

    No, I'm not suggesting just water until harvest. All I'm saying is ratchet back your feed, especially anything with N in it...CalMag as an example.

    Is this a deficiency you recognize?

    It's your pH, as TropiKanna mentioned.

    Ugh the leaves.... what is this?

    Yes, of course they are salvageable...don't sweat it, just make your adjustments. Plants and nature are persistent.

    Ugh the leaves.... what is this?

    Ratchet back your grow nutrients, namely N.
  19. C

    Fan leaves getting lighter in veg

    As noted above, you're short on Mg...be sure it's not tied up by your pH and / or by the excess N.

    One of my seedlings fell over (day 3)

    You need to feed those seedlings and get moisture into that coco or stretched seedlings won't be your only issue. I suspect you may be new to growing in coco; I'd take the time to research what's needed to be successful when using it as a medium.
