Thanks for the info.Ive seen this photo as I am aware that something is going on by the leave discolouration. This is the schedule I’m following, This is the weekend where I’m switching to 12/12..I’ll be applying the feed as per week 1 of bud.I extended veg time,(on 7th week) so I’m guessing my soil nutrients are depleting.During veg it’s been worm castings every other week, and alternate Water/Fert alive feed.Water is Ph of 6.

I think you should add about 1.5 gr of epsom salt per gal. They look low on the mag.

pH of 6 is low for soil, optimum is 6.5, my water is at 6.8 and I don't mess with it.

Thanks for your input Bernie, all input is appreciated.
The mag was a time released nute as well as calcium and I did have a concern about that.Ill add epsom salt to the mix.

This is something else I haven’t dialed in as of yet.I was watering at 6.5 and didn’t see any change to the plants.A recommendation from the product supplier,basically stating to get ph in the sweet spot of 6-6.2.
Ive had ph issues, at first I didn’t realize the pen needed to be calibrated as often as it does, now I calibrate at every feed.

right on time released nutes are good for ornamentals and long term crops. We run fast and dont have time for time released nutes.

Party on soldier.

Might be calibrateing more than you need to. Once every couple of months would be ok or even longer. Once you calibrate and use it then store it properly then you use it gain and your doing everything the same when you notice the pen off from what your used to is when you really need to calibrate it again imo. and get drops to check with the drops when pen goes whacko to see if its the pen or you actually have a ph issue. The drops wont be off is my point.
