They seem to be getting worse

I really think your burning or over watering. Is your new light a different kind of light?

Well at least every other day sometimes longer I usually pick the pot up to check its weight so I’d be shocked if I have overwaterd them but it is possible I have just reported them all yesterday in new all mix bio bizz soil so hopefully they will pick up but the roots were rootbound but not that bad. Also I saw a drastic change over night when I moved them from small tent to bigger tent and I hadn’t waterd in that period and the temp and humidity in the new tent was very similar to the last one they where in so I’m absolutely lost. My ph pen might be way out but I always thought with soil I’d be ok. Appreciate your reply though thanks

Do you test the soil ph or just water ph? Soil ph can really do damage even if you ph your water each time. Just mho, looks like lockout either ph or over watering.

Next grow I’ll try using Epson salts during major growth spurts (mid veg and mid flower).

I don't know why you'd do it that way.

I’ll also try some foliar feeding.

Foliar feeding usually isn't necessary. It's just a quick way to give the plant mobile nutrients when there's a deficiency.

Bro, those plants are to old to be changing all your soil. There is your issue probably. Only top dress your soil. Like top 2 or 3 inches. I use work casting n 4n4. You should start putting the tip of your finger in the dirt also to feel for moisture within the top 1" or 1 1/2". Good luck man. If you can message me when you want. I can try to help you. I been thinking your plants are burnt from light. But I'm starting to wonder if you nutrients locked them. Bad time to do these things. Slow down n let nature catch up. Don't watter again unless you know it's time

Your just doing to much with the salts . Foliar feedings fine. If it's not broken don't try to fix it

5 grows all with Mag deficiencies starting around week 5 flower.... I'm improving, but am running out of tricks.

Foliar feeding usually isn't necessary. It's just a quick way to give the plant mobile nutrients when there's a deficiency.

Exactly, this is why I'd like to try foliar feeding... It seems to me there are two major explosions in growth, one mid veg and the other at around week 3 of flower. I'm thinking that a little boost of Mag may stop the deficiency as the plant takes off? Just a hunch, I may be way off.

I wont go into details about all the things Ive tried, I'd be writing a book... But lets just say I'm fine tuning my flowering skills.

I'm gonna be doing a foliar feeding soon. It's really good to do sometimes. It will give your leaves nutrients directly through the leafs. But my question to you guys are. What liquid fertilizer will you be using? And why? Did you know greenleaf nutrients has a 3 step organic feed n fertilizer set up. With the pk bud booster pack. It gives the plants everything at 1 time. Honestly my last 3 or 4 grows really didn't need it after I fed at 14 days on. It seems like growth spurts after every feeding. Big ones. If you decide you want to give it a try hmu and I can give you a nice nice discount. But hey that shits fire . You should try it. It also can correct deficiency.

I'm pretty sure my promo is growbig. If not I'll change it In a bit

Only just

Also whats your ph like soil and water

i don’t know how to check my soil ph but my water is always between 6.9-7.5. The soil is fresh from the bag because I only repotted a few days ago so not quite sure what the ph of the soil is

Yeah I think your on to something with the light change? I’m pretty sure I’m not overwatering because I’m so lazy I can never be bothered to do it. The pots usually go super lightweight then I tend to water but the light was changed from a 8bulb 4ft t5 the really big one to a 720w adjustawatt led although I’ve only got it on 25 percent it’s much brighter than the t5 and I mean these plants changed overnight from really lush green bushy growth. The outgrew the the 4x2 tent they was in and I had to move them to my 4x4 but the looked so different in 24hrs and just gradually got worse but now I’m just using the t5 again and hoping to see some change. Thanks for you input

 

[Guerillagarden]

I'm reading this post and the most obvious "change" here seems to be the move from one tent to another with different lights?

If I'm reading correctly, you moved from a T5 to LED? Seems to me, that all clues are pointing towards this?

Sorry I can't be more help, I can't say why, but if the plants were super healthy under the T5 and immediately had problems under the LED, I'd probably play with light intensity and light distance a little. It might also take the plants a little time to adjust to the new light?

I came into the hobby well after good old powerful light bulbs. But I have noticed these old lights (excuse me, I don't know the names, halogen?) seem to be much more forgiving than LED's.... If the LED's arent dialed in correctly or your plants are taking in too much light, problems pop up fast. 720 watts is a lot of LED juice !

Note: I have similar problems late flower when I start to increase my light intensity for flower. I'm also only using 100 watts of LED and at times even that can be too much !

Thanks for taking the time to write that I think your right.. and yes basically they changed tents with very similar temp/humidity just different light and within 24hrs they looked really stressed now after writing this it seems quite obvious problem. Today I’ve changed back to the t5 although it’s probably a bit small for these girls I hope they perk back up. Thanks again

Stop spreading misinformation please.
You're encouraging over watering with your fingering the soil method. Save that for your girlfriend/boyfriend.
Also, op, your soil dry back pattern shows that you are not saturating all of your medium each watering. Water slowly until you have about 20% run off. Wait until pot is light to water again.

Some look rootbound, could be cold floor their sitting on. Could be adjustment to the LED, could be watering too frequently? I see lots of things i personally would not do.

Hey can the cold cause yellowing my last run I couldn't get night time temps right and it was freezing in my grow room all my plants started yellowing from the bottom up from middle of leaf do you think it was the cold

It could cause yellowing, root rot and a host of problems if they are wet and cold.
