Thanks! yes I'm in soil. I was worried it was leaf septoria or something worse.I am going to assume it is calcium and you probably are in need of more cal mag. Probably a little late to chase it now, but next time, I would feed it more once you flip to flower. Nothing wrong with the plant consuming some of it as it ripens but you don't want it to eat itself too fast. Week 4 is probably early enough that a bit more calmag would help. If you are in soil, you may want to get a bag of gypsum though. Easier than worrying about it
what light you using and how far?Hello,
Going into Week 6 on a 9 weeks flowering schedule for these ILGM White Widows.
In addition, I forgot to mention my PH meter wasn't calibrated right. I didn't noticed till about week 2 and half of flowering.
Two other plants started showing signs of Cal Mag deficiency after about 4 days from the original post, so I feed them a bit more CAL Mag and it seems to work. I also flush those plants first before feeding them since the PPM reading was about 2,000. I brought it back down to 1,200. This was probably the fault of the my PH meter being off so the plants wasn't using the nuts properly. Lesson learned - I will always recalibrate my PH meter every month.
However, in a matter about 3 days Plant #5 all of a sudden gotten really bad with what appears to be Cal Mag and Nitrogen deficiency. It's hard to tell in the picture due to the lighting but the top leaves are really yellow and leaves are turning brown and crispy. Plant #3 and #4 was probably my healthiest plants and within matter of days plant #4 is on life support.
So my question is should I continue feeding accordingly to Fox Farm Nutrient guide and try to wait till 9 weeks to harvest or start thinking about harvesting early so these plants don't eat themsleves to death.
Second question, should I start plucking those deficiency fan leaves cause I figure the plant needs whatever nutrient left from the leaves to survive?

Thanks for the help!
should print this out as a poster and put up in your grow area.. with soilless or soil always feed what’s needed 4-5 days before.,what light you using and how far?
Four Mars Hyrdo TS1000 at about 12 inches above plant.what light you using and how far?
i don’t have experience growing with led’s but 12 inches is way too close for any light.. raise it to 2-3 ft away..Four Mars Hyrdo TS1000 at about 12 inches above plant.
Isn't Fox Farm Feeding Schedule similar to this chart or maybe I'm just not good at interrupting chart.should print this out as a poster and put up in your grow area.. with soilless or soil always feed what’s needed 4-5 days before.,
part of your issue is following the nutrient feeding chart., View attachment 1221457
@deadlysars I’m not sure where I got my FF feeding chart but it’s different than what you have. Here’s mine.Isn't Fox Farm Feeding Schedule similar to this chart or maybe I'm just not good at interrupting chart. View attachment 1221460
