Anybody got any idea of what the problem is with this plant? Maybe needs Cal/Mag?
What’s your take @Kushash?

Not sure at 1st glance.
Could be Mg but not Ca IMO.
Epsom salt is usually safe in small doses occasionally if there is a lack of Mg.
Is it a clone?
Are you in soil?
K not being in the soil can happen but the soil is not likely to be K deficient in veg IMO in most cases.
If in soil the 1st thing would be to have an idea if your soil PH is OK.
If you know it is in a good range then it could be a potassium deficiency or it could be an imbalance of other nutrients affecting K. Keeping the medium to wet can cause a low soil PH resulting in lockout but I don't think that is your issue but never rule it out just in case.
Look at all the nutrient excesses that can have an antagonistic affect on K using the Moulder chart.

We would need a lot more info to get an idea IMO. I think your red stems are a clue, along with the leaf twist.

@J.James just popped in as I'm typing. What's your take?

That's just my 2c and I could be off, others will hopefully chime in.

Thanks man.
The only thing that really stands out is the front right plant. It reeks of sweet candy. It is changing some now. Was like a cut open skittle or something for a long time, now it's starting to smell less fruity and more like candy, if that makes sense.

So in this comparison grow I'm doing I'm going to scrog them both and I'm running time lapses. I was going to do a video series showing my technique. I was on the fence if I was going to do it or not. After your post I think I will now.

Going to get a wet and a dry weight after the comp. I'll post the results on my site. Muahahahhaaa

For the next run though, I'm going back to everything that I know. Strain; medium; nutes; well, I guess I'll be testing lights so that will be the only thing new.

I just remembered that everything about this grow was new to me. Strains showed up from @socaljoe the day before the comp started. My half assed attempt at living soil. My experimental DIY sip system (hey what happened to @whatsasip haven't seen him in a while). And the light showed up the day I flipped to 12/12. The scrog I have always done. I'm trying to start Operation: Highest Yield on my site with a few members from RIU in a collaborative effort to search for and show the techniques and methods a few growers use in a search for their max yield.
Taking applications now. I'm going to start up a thread for the apps soon in the advertising section. BigPerm@BigPermGrows.com

I've been doing things with light deprivation during seed production someone might be interested in. I will send you some info in the next few days.

What Strain?
What size pot is it in?
What's your Temps and Humidity?
What and how much are you feeding it?
What medium are you using?
Click to expand...
1g ProMix. Girl Scout Cookies Forum Cut clone.
Temps: 76 to 84
Humidity: 50 to 65%
Been feeding Fox Farms Big Bloom when it gets fed, I’ve been trying to hold this one and a few others back from growing very fast right now, due to lack of flowering space.

Really nice Perm, great job man. Looks like you’ll have a good supply for awhile.

I think the bolded above is your issue. Promix is great for mineral-derived foods and big blooms is maybe a good supplement for growers in organic soils but the combo of promix and big blooms is sort of straddling both worlds and is clearly not working. If you love Fox farms go with their Grow Big from start to finish in promix.
