Soil was way to hot...ppm from runoff was at 3500. Trying to fix one problem created another.
Dam , ya that's hot. Ive had plants high like that before. It's wierd because some of them took it well and some not...
I guess it boils down to what they can handle.
How did u create another problem?

I was trying to fix what i thought was a mag def and when they didn't respond i thought potasioum and started using bloom boosters that i use for outside. I'm the process i made the soil to hot and they just stayed stunted and shity looking for over a month. Not really sure why i waited so long to check ppm runoff. I guess i really didn't think it would be hot but i was outta ideas, lol.

Got ya, well at least u know what the problem is now. So u should be headed in right direction. Hope u get it figured out. The plants don't look that bad to me though. If that helps any....
 
Yup, I'm at the flushing process now unless sometime chimes in with another alternative. I feel I've tried most everything i personally can think of. Maybe a reset is in order.
nice screen name,

nice screen name, TBH, growing, it's really easy, dry & curing is the issue
 
I have been growing weed for over 35 years, I've been watching you squirm all around buying this & is comical, AT 1st grew it without any fertilizers or anything except water, and over the years I've been using Epsom salts & African violet fertilizer, but been watching a guy from Canada that been growing long before me and using miracle grow fertilizers, it's so much easier to grow than it was back in the day I don't have any issues with growing as I read it's only a weed grows on its own, it's 1 of the easiest things to grow, hell tomatoes are harder, lol,,, you put too much into this
My first grow was in 1972. A grow light bulb, a pot and a bag seed. He's got more calculations than NASA. Put the seed in a pot of good soil, put some water on it, and some Miracle Grow and you will have some buds to smoke. He's like way over thinking and reacting to everything. You'll never "zone" when you are thinking about it. Beauty through simplicity.

Buy, Buy, Buy! I hear a lot of this.
 
Start off checking soil ph and maybe check ec coming out of run off just to get an idea if it to much ir not enough or something like magnesium that usually starts at the bottom its a mobile nuit the plant Will move it to where it needs it until it rund out from either not enough or lock out✌️
 
Just over saturated with nutrients at that stage of the plant. I find they can only handle 3000-3700ppm of hot soil watering runoff during the first 2-5 weeks in 2-3 gallon pots during veg. Usually at your current plants stage, 1000-1300ppm run off will keep them supplied sufficiently.
 
Some of you could really take the adage, "It's hard to be humble when your perfect!" to heart...
 
Idk if anyone mentioned this but you said you had the light at 30% - plants aren’t getting enough light . I have a 3x3 with a Mammoth 4x4, 430w light, at 100% during flowering but have it a good 3ft from the plant. It’s probably too much but doing ok. I’m a noob and with living soil the growing part has become too easy. Idk about putting fertilizers in living soil. You shouldn’t need to. build a soil is the way to go for sure. I am still messing up the drying and curing. Build a cannatrol clone that I will be testing on this harvest. Gl man

Looks really good. How much power does that light draw at 100% output?

They look happy. At 3’ height of the light @ 100%, they are probably seeing around 700-750PPFD. You could probably lower the light 12-14”, and run it at 75%, which will lower energy consumption/cost, temperature a couple degrees, but still provide the same PPFD.
