Also if you add the Nitrate fertilizer make sure its organic. Because you have good high quality microbe rich medium you don't want to kill that microbe base with salt based fertilizer. Try something all natural and low salt like a Roots Organic Grow its a powder thats water soluble.
Slight cal mag deficiency
I personally have not used either, I use Dutch Science powder nutes... and yes runoff is important, especially if feeding Epsom salt or using a salt based fertilizer, the salts can build up and cause ph issues that can cause lockout, which means your plant won't take up the nutrients. It's less important in soil than say coco where you are feeding constantly, but I still like to get a decent amount of runoff just so I know they are actually saturated and stuff isn't building up in the soil.
. I repotted in 20 gal bags. 2 have FoxFarm Happy Frog soil and the other 2 Coast of Maine Stonington Blend. They have been in this soil for a little over 2 weeks. I have been giving Cal-mag and fishsh!t and then recharge every 7 to 10 days. I'm starting the Fox Farm Trio tonight. I was told the soil I have I should not have to feed for 4 weeks but I'm starting to see some white or yellow spots on my leaves. Also should I trim some of the Fan leaves. I'm thinking about topping one of them again what everyone's thoughts on
OK its not too bad. I think there could be a few things happening but fortunately for you it's early and you should be able to fix it. First off Im noticing the leaves are slightly yellowed that could be from...
A) Overwatering and the plant is struggling with oxygen uptake through the soggy roots
or it could be...
B) Possible Nitrate deficiency. A lack of nitrate food in the vegetative state will often result in the leaves turning lighter in color
Also I'm seeing a little bit of the rust spots showing up on the yellowed leaves. That is likely a nutrient deficiency probably Magnesium or Calcium. If I were in your position I would do the following things to help correct this...
1) Start watering less. Both in frequency and in amount of water. Let the pot dry out a day or two in between waterings make sure the top layer of soil is bone dry to the touch before adding water again.
2) Start feeding your plant. I would use a vegetative nitrate fertilizer start with a light dose and ease into it. Also along with the fertilizer you should also start adding a Cal/Mag supplement. If you these things your plant should be happier. Good luck!
The light yellow growth showing at the very tops of the branches is from overwatering. The soil gets too wet and then they have trouble getting oxygen up through the roots. I would recommend not watering for at least 3 or 4 days let the pot dry out a bit and wait until its nice and dry before next watering. That yellow growth will correct. Other than that it looks good so far
Thank you.
I would dry them out to just before the point of wilt then thoroughly water and repeat,it also looks like your watering around the stem on one pic,maybe the root zone is too wet.
