Hello all,
First time grower here.
Growing four legal plants in my backyard in BC. I know one is a violator strain, the other three are the same unknown sativa strain.
Growing in the ground with organic soil from a local nursery mixed with 25% peat moss and vermiculite. Then added a premium compost plus bone meal, blood meal, kelp meal, basalt rock dust. I dug big holes in native soil and added this mix to it.
Been adding liquid seaweed and molasses at 1tbsp per gallon every other watering since stretch until I started seeing minor nute burn on tips. Now just straight dechlorinated tap water, ph 7-7.5 and I don't bother ph adjusting as microbes should do that for me.
Now my violator which was always the darkest green is lightening up and a fair amount of yellow leaves with brown tips on older fan leaves but starting to rise up the plant.
Also one of the sativa's is showing purple hues but the other two are not.
Had some trouble with aphids and mites but I treated with safers a few times in stretch and I haven't noticed much damage since then. It's getting colder here and we have had a rainy September. Low of 9c and high of 22c.
Are these deficiencies worth doing anything about? I want to just let them finish and not over react with more nutes at this point in the cycle.
Here are photos
Cheers
