@GNick55 @ComfortablyNumbyep all that sounds good for your next feeding or two, than we change it up but have to follow along to see how they are reacting..
@Moshmen @ComfortablyNumb @GNick55 so went and checked on the pot weight and ends up I’ll need to water today. So I’m going to do one gram of epsom salt, botanicare cal mag+ (2ml/gallon) 1/4 dose of fox farm big grow (2ml/gallon) with tap water at 69F degrees until 20% runoff. Lights are off in the next five hours so unless y’all say other I’m going to water.yep all that sounds good for your next feeding or two, than we change it up but have to follow along to see how they are reacting..
So should I just water with a gram of epsom salt, 2ml/gallon of cal-mag, and 1/4 dose of fox farm grow big or just epsom salt?Your main issue is your added Bembe and Fish Sh!t and these make it a living soil. So now the soil is feeding and you are feeding. It's too much.
Eveything you give it is adding to the mess.
Flush the snot out of it and give it light balanced feeds without the Bembe or Fish shit. You don't need most of that stuff.
If you want to feed them, then use ProMix instead of soil. That's what its made for.
@Moshmen recommended adding a pinch of epsom salt on my next watering. When you say cut the CalMag in half do you mean use 1ml/gallon? The recommended full dose is 3ml-6ml per gallon in flowering stageWhy are you adding epson salt?
Cut the cal-mag by half.
Drop the grow big.

The other day I had an idea and after testing, it works great. To know if you need to water, get yourself a soil meter. Poke or drill 4 holes in your pot 1/4 way up from the bottom spaced around the pot. Insert the meter probe into the hole and test for moisture. If its dry, then water SLOWLY...www.thcfarmer.com
If it's 3 to 6, then use 1.5 The charts are designed to use up the product as fast as possible so you have to buy more. Those numbers are as high as you can feed without directly killing your plant. Always cut the chart by at least half. Epson salt and cal-mag do almost the same thing. Drop one or the other.@Moshmen recommended adding a pinch of epsom salt on my next watering.

@ComfortablyNumb @GNick55 watered 3.5 days ago with about a half gallon of water. The water used was tap water which I added a pinch of epsom salt to and had a ph of 6.5 and a ppm of 130. Did a slurry test yesterday with three samples using ro bottled water with a ph of 6.3 and ppm was 0.If it's 3 to 6, then use 1.5 The charts are designed to use up the product as fast as possible so you have to buy more.

Next time you are ready to water, top dress 2 tablespoons of dolomite lime into each pot. Then water.
Hopefully, this is not a root issue.
Lets have pix of the whole plant and pot.
Put some marbles or something under the pot inside the catch pan. You need air flowing in there.
Done. After cutting the holes I could see that the roots are still white but the bottom layer of soil was prob a little too wet.Yeah, put about 10 1/2 inch holes around the bottom of the pot. You need more drainage.
This looks like a root issue, but hopefully we can correct it before it gets toxic.
Yep. Pots hold water and really they shouldn't. Read these and you will understand why you need proper drainage along with a full inch of airflow under the pot also. There should be holes in the bottom also. Smaller holes, more of them.Done. After cutting the holes I could see that the roots are still white but the bottom layer of soil was prob a little too wet.
I put holes along the bottom edge and the bottom of the pot. Should be good to go on the drainage issue.Yep. Pots hold water and really they shouldn't.

Pretty sure I got a hot batch of happy frog or I royally screwed up the soil. However I’ve never fed more than 1/4 of the recommended dosage.Sorry I missed this thread this weekend , CN gotta ya goin - I still feel it’s a mag issue ? May b being locked out ? Or ph? I’m definitely not a happy frog expert, it just is similar symptoms that I’ve had before I do know those leaves will only get worse ! Never heal - need whole plant pics , new growth is what ya want to be lookin at,
Only the junky 3 in 1.Do you have a soil probe?
Soil Moisture meter. NOT the 3 in 1 meters. Those are junk.
@ComfortablyNumb what moisture meter would you recommend?Only the junky 3 in 1.
