These two are in 7 gallon fabric pots in purple cow organic soil. In 3rd week of flower. One has been yellow since starting to flower. Soil ph is on point. They get foop nutes weekly. Last 2 waterings which are every other day have given calmag. Also gets recharge with weekly nutes. What is the problem.

Perhaps your nutes are the cause of your problem. I would back off of them for a week. You said you are feeding with Foop every week and recharging with nutes every week as well. It seems this may be a little too much.

I have used foop for my first 3 runs. I made the mistake of only buying the grow and only bought bloom and did not realize like a lot of fertilizers there is an overlap when you use both products. You still need good nitrogen support through week 4 flower.
My last plant got amended with EWC 3 times and kept fans much longer and lost zero sugars.

Looks like N from here. Definitely recoverable. Good luck

So you think I need more nitrogen

I am not sure. Are you using the grow and bloom ferts at this time at the same time?

What is the ph of your your soil, what is the pH of your water? That soil is not inert like coco so your nuts reacting with it. Those fabric pots are also in a container so they are in the run off water from watering which can cause a problem. Does the soil get time to dry out or is it always wet. The plant looks over watered also. Used a complete fertilizer designed for flowering and you won't need cal mag.

Just wanna chime in while I get a question answer.

Do not back off on your nutes. Having actually used these nutes to grow 16 oz in 2 runs this nutrition is not known for being hot. It is a 1 1 1 organic nutrition format that requires an overlap of 4-6 weeks when both grow and bloom are used.
The topic and question of pH in an organic grow has come up. If you get sideways on wet feet enough to jack the pH the plant would look so much worse. It takes a while to ruin the buffering components of organic soil mixes but once done the damage takes hours to days depending on size of plant.
These are all mistakes that I have already made.
And fixed.
Well not the wet feet plant. 1/2 the yield of the companion but I got it to the finish line.

It is on the mend. It was a cal mag issue. Every other possible issue turned out to be on point. I switched to a different calmag and now it is greening back up and looking better

MikedIn's companion crop thing is beautiful the way it's nitrogen fixing into stable usable reserves plus a mircobiome.
In my experience cal mag is a nitrogen key and not enough N causes yellow like others said. I had Bud Charge thats like 0-0-50 for flower and immediately started losing stored nitrogen in the plant, another grower and I worked out a swap and when I started using Fox Farm (who will send you stickers if you ask so this buys my loyalty until another company bribes me better) it was 3-2-6 and way better. I still dope a little Bud Charge here and there but not much and I'm not buying more.
