So normally I have been able to figure out deficiencies in the past, but I haven't come across this one (or maybe I don't recognize it because of the stage.
The plant was looking pretty healthy a couple days ago except for some lower leaves due to stress from a few weeks ago. Here are a few pics from today though.
I am growing in FF Ocean forest, using filtered water from my Berkey water filter (not quite as good as RO, but still extremely filtered water and it has heavy metal filters added so it could be a reason for deficiency). She is almost a month old, but I moved her to a bigger pot with lots of fresh FFOF soil about a week and a half ago, using plain pHed water at about 6.5. I assumed since there was so much fresh soil, I shouldn't need to add nutes yet. Probably wrong. I have it in this combo of hydro and soil because I'm using "air injection technology from modular hydro" which is really just like a having a fancy 3D air stone in the bottom of your soul filled bucket. The bucket is mostly full of highly water saturated soil...maybe this could lead to deficiency since it's a semi hydro without adding enough nutes like a hydro?
I added some FF Big Bloom yesterday, which I guess is mostly guano. I diluted it a lot in a gallon by FF instructions. I didnt take a good look at the leaves prior to this (so I don't know if these necrotic spots are 1-3 days old, sorry). I'm flushing her now. Adding a few pics, they should be pretty clear, I'm just not with the program today. Also the leaves as of today are starting to curl upwards at the end tips as you can see it the picture. Almost all the leaves, even the fairly new top canopy leaves are starting to show this.
P.S. I'm also using LEDs, had it kind of close yesterday so I backed it off, but the temps were fine. Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it and need it. Peace.
