Under watered and needed cal-mag

BirdLaw86 · Nov 14, 2021

Cold weather kicked the heat on and then temp went up to 84 and it was 2 nights before watering and feeding and then I woke up to this yesterday. I added some calmag 4 days ago at 1st sign of discoloring but when temp went up the plant withered without any water in the soil. Fed and watered and she bounced back. Thoughts? Other than the burnt tips from a f**k up about 5 weeks ago attempting to kill aphids the only damage has been due to the calmag and watering issues. After i give her 48 hrs to chill out from the 2 stresses, shes going under the trellis and then into flower a week later

I think a person can get away with under watering more than over.

I just cut 3 and I know they were under watered but I checked the roots and they were pretty good.

Now Cal Mag go easy with it and make sure your soil is moist before applying.

Thoughts? Since you put it out there.....

Your plant and soil looks great. Well nourished and happy. Looks like you could get away with just water for a couple weeks.

To me it almost looks like the start of calcium excess. If you start to see spots on leaves you will know. Also looks like the start of a Mg deficiency. The red striped stalk is usually either Mg or P deficiency and since you are still in veg not flower I would think Mg. Somebody posted a chart on here one time showing which nutrients in excess lock out others. Calcium blocks a lot of key nutrients in excess.
If you dry amend make sure you check percentages as well as ingredients. A well known nutrient company has a bloom dry amend product that is 10% calcium. Now imagine adding cal/mag to that. In soil I wouldn't use a cal/mag product, but something that would address them individually.

Looks like your N/P/K is on point the plant looks really healthy with plenty of bud sites. What strain is it?

You sir are so accurate in your diagnoses its not funny. I originally added a bit of my wca which is water soluable calcium, and the issue persisted so I added the flower bloom and it fixed, thats cuz the bloom had mag in it. Just picked up some epsom today so that I can specifically address the mag issue. But for you to know all of this tells me youre very knowledgeable and I appreciate your information bro. This strain is Blue Jazz, and to my count (excluding the tiny stuff) there are over 40tops. I just added C02 in the room 2 days ago and all I could say today is holy shit! Shes bushed up and the newest tops which i wasnt counting bc they were so small are now obviously gonna be even more budd sites...im fuckin jazzed about this one
