gorntstarted grow question 5y ago
One of my plants is having a hard time - it's technically growing as fast as the others but it's leaves are half the size, slight discolouration and cupping. I suspect Mg, PH or overwatering may be the issue. All variables for each plant are exactly the same.

My first guess is overwatering. If they are too wet, the plant has no reason to develop a strong root system. You need to mimic competition in the wild by forcing them to develop strong root systems. You almost need to dehydrate them.

I agree with 8thChevron. Looks like over watering to me. Let them get to the brink of droop and even a little under watering is better than overwatering as long as you catch it quickly. Overwatering can also lead to pH fluctuations, it promotes anaerobic bacterias (the bad kind) and creates an ideal environment for pests like fungus gnats to reproduce. Good luck and happy growing!

What does this stress look like? PH lockout? Overwater? Natural Fade?I overwatered. Did 4 litres into the pot. Then did another 1.5L the day after (in a 7Gal cloth pot) I think this caused overwatering toxicity.
Does the strees look like:
Water Toxicity?
PH Lockout?
Or fade from entering in the latter half of flower?

PLEASE HELP!!! CalMag deficency?CalMag deficency? Deficency starts on lowest fan leaves. Starts as a shiny spot in between veins that later turns yellow, eventually spreading to whole leaf causing it to die. Uping CalMag in feed and spraying her with CalMag water mix. She responds well at first then spreads.

Leave color normal?? [First timer]I am not sure about the color of the leaves if they look normal? The baby leaf seems to be turning a bit yellow. The rest of the leaves seem to be a bit discolored as you can see in the pictures but mainly green though. Is this alright or am I doing something wrong here?
