How many ppm? If the mineral content is to high doesn’t matter if it’s top notch or not
How many ppm? If the mineral content is to high doesn’t matter if it’s top notch or notTap water that has sat 24 hours. We are in the PNW so our tap water is top notch.
What makes you say cal overload and not deficiency?Each plant has different needs - sounds/looks like a cal overload

Overload is probably the wrong verbiage, but to much calcium can lock out magnesium and vice versa - so technically is a deficiency but caused by not being able to use it - sorry not a very good splainer. Definitely a cal mag problem though. Just a matter of what caused itWhat makes you say cal overload and not deficiency?
Ph and nitrogen both can affect cal take up - what ph you feed at
Usually feed at around 6.0 runoff stays a pretty consistent 6.6-6.8. I don’t have the means to measure ppm but will definitely be acquiring a new meter.How many ppm? If the mineral content is to high doesn’t matter if it’s top notch or not
Do you use ph up ? You should be watering around 6.5 ish in soil . If you are not raising your ph before ya water then there’s your problemMy well water has a PH of 5.7 and a ppm between 23-28 on average.
No lupe but i doubt it is pests. I have never had a problem with them and the airflow is pretty heavy and temps pretty low too. But i am looking close every day.U got a lupe u can look through? Get a close up look at leaf and see if you got any pests.
Huh mayb just a finicky plant ? LolUsually feed at around 6.0 runoff stays a pretty consistent 6.6-6.8. I don’t have the means to measure ppm but will definitely be acquiring a new meter.
Thanks for all your help i am going to try feeding at a higher ph and if that doesnt work i am going to introduce some cal/magHuh mayb just a finicky plant ? Lol
Sounds like ya got everything under control - there are more experienced growers here some one will chime i.
Sounds like a good start your ph looks good though I would be curious what ppm run was -older leaves won’t recover judge your success by new growthThanks for all your help i am going to try feeding at a higher ph and if that doesnt work i am going to introduce some cal/mag
Is 320 W a lot for one plant?Each plant has different needs - sounds/looks like a cal overload
Seems like it but really can depend on footprint height etc. I have a cheap lux meter I use to adjust height and intensity - when it is cooler outside I run my light at a higher intensity further away from the canopy I get better/deeper penetration - hope I said that rightIs 320 W a lot for one plant?

Sorry I missed that ! That’s a big difference I’m not a co co grower but I hear ph should be around 5.8-6.4 for coco ? How many times you watering again? Pretty sure you should b feeding every timeI don't grow in soil except outside. Inside I was in hydro for a long time now im switching to coco.
Depending on nutes I have to add ph down usually to get around 6.0. Using clonex my PH is 6.8. Ive had some climb to 7.7, it all depends on the nutes.
If I use my RO water i can produce around 60 gal in a day in my storage barrel and the PH is 4.7. Wait a week and the PH climbs to 5.5. I always have to add cal mag as well to my well water even growing in dirt not just my RO water.
Depending on nutes I use sometimes I just add Epsom Salt.
