I feel that's not a deficiency. It looks like a mosaic virus or natural variegation.

I've seen it it in the white offspring..like 1 out of 10 or something close. If you want to diminish it up your CalMag during veg a bit...then when she improves drop back to normal before flower or early flower. If you do nothing it really won't affect anything but leaf looks imvho.

My white does this. It is natural in my plant as I have ran it for a few years now, and it has done it since day 1. I wouldn't worry about it. Just watch it over a few grows, and see what happens. The white prodcues some nice smoke. I was puffing on it last night.

I've got OG raskals cut of the white and it looked similar when I got it and it started first growing and finally grew out of it... Slow grower and a picky eater.

HOPE it's not the mosaic virus.

Thanks everyone. I'll give them a good dose of cal/mg next feeding and see what happens.

I'm looking forward seeing how she looks in flower.

IT IS NOT CAL MAG.

Here is one of the moms, I've cut this plant back ten times and tried everything on these. They do not change, what will make it LESS visible is boosting nitrogen. But will still be there.
I have a couple of them cal mg and slowly built it up to ridiculous amounts, never changed a thing at any level.
She is still one of my vigorous keepers, has no play in her life whatsoever I have noticed. When flipped they kind of grow out of it, but its no deal.

Mine is a white cross was well. Fwiw.

My cut of The White always wanted Ca, not so much Mg. I never did see that variegation on her, but I did see it occur on another cross of a friend's. Odd situation, the mother never showed it, subsequent cuts never showed it, just this one particular run it showed up.

Have you tried giving just Ca to see if it changes the effect? Can even just do foliar if you need to keep EC in the root zone down.

He is saying he added cal mag in high doses already and it didn't do anything... Cal mag has ca in it....

Looks just like mine. Been that way for 2 years. I grow organic, and everything the plant coul dneed is in the soil, or the teas I apply. My plants lack nothing ever.

The White must be one of those funny nicknames, because I actually think she is Mulatto.:)
