I was kind of hoping the new soil would fix me up....
Unfortunately I switched back to my tap water from the bottled water once I transplanted them. I'm still on the fence for my tap water being the culprit.
My light is 24 inches above canopy @ 50ish%... 480W fixture dimmed to 220W
I've got a big bag of Magnesium Sulfate I can dip into...

I went for Neem cake and Karanja and left with 3 cu ft of soil and rice hulls instead. Forgot the Karanja. lmao

Start spraying close to lights off with Epsom salts in water ph'd to 6.5-7, also water with 1 tsp per gal of water. All my plants were looking like this until I started using Epsom salts. I use it every watering now or they start looking like this in a week or so

The only reason I ask, is whenever my VPD has been incorrect, I’ve had all sorts of issues with nutrient uptake, especially when using LED. My approach is to fix VPD if incorrect, and take it from there. Hope you get it sorted

I believe they are implying I may have an iron deficiency, but I believe my PH isn't high enough...
I'm dialling in my blumats, and the pot was a little dry... maybe I have an under watering issue?
The other plant seems to be doing well.
I dont think the epsom foliars helped, so...
I think this ones a clone of a bag seed, so I'm fine whether it lives or not, but I wouldn't mind knowing why it dies.
