today was day #26 for my lady, she has a little bit of leaf issues ive been noticing some spots. she has grown bushy since her first topping and it looks like her leaves are crowded. i lightly pulled some of the branching trying to make it so light can reach some of the leaves under which is in the last pic.

strain is crystal and im growing with 24 hour light.....i just wanted to post an update and see if anyone had any tips, opinions or maybe see something wrong that i dont!

Not sure what your watering, nutrient schedule/sources are but it looks like the very beginning of a mag deficiency.

Can't say the cause without more info.

transplanted into fox farm ocean soil a week ago so it hasnt had any feedings yet and just got calmag in the mail today so plan on giving her some soon

That or maybe just add 1/2-1g of epsom salt per gal.

If you just transplanted a week ago you may just be seeing a result of that now.

If going with cal mag 100ppm should be plenty. I think they go a bit overboard on the doses.

I might try epsom first because I rather give the cal mag when I give it’s first feeding easier to mix all up, also plan on cutting suggested doses to 1/4 of what’s recommended for all my nutes just to start

I wouldnt give anything but water to fresh transplanted ocean forest. Plant that size should be ok without nutes (or cal mag) for weeks. And be careful not to water too often.

shes in a 7 gallon pot not filled all the way up so maybe 5 gallons of soil, i water her (3/4 gallon every 2-3 days...im really just playing it by the top soil but i was told to wait 2 weeks before feeding because if transplant do you think i should wait longer?

Watering too little too often can cause wet and dry pockets. 5 gallons ff holds a lot more than 3/4 gallon- probably 1.5 gallons or so. Water to run off then weigh the pot. Wait for it to lose 10-12 pounds then water again.

Ok thanks for the reply I’ll start to give her more water when she dries out again

I took a video showing some of the spots and the plant overall because pictures don’t always show everything lmk what you guys think

Probably about a week between waterings until it gets bigger.

Water to at least 15% runoff. Clears the roots and brings in oxygen. Also should meter the ec and ph.
