The biggest mistake a new grower can make is to panic. It is in out DNA to help out our plants. But, it is in a plants DNA to want to live. Don't do anything drastic, let's work through everything in a simple, step by step process and keep your plant happy and healthy. I have got to feed my kids, my real kids lol and chop down a plant. I will be back on here in about 2 hours and look at your nutrients that you have on hand and see what we can do. If you don't have anything, BTW where do you live, as far as Stateside or Europe? If in US, I know a real good one you can pick up at Lowes cheap.

So, listen to me, the plant doesn't look bad at all and is barely in the beginning stages of deficiency so don't do anything drastic. She will still give an excellent yield! I will be back in a bit, I just wanted to drop in and let you know I was busy and hadn't forgotten about you.

Alright, so I found a product that looks like they sell in the UK and since you are already using BioBizz you should be able to find this easily and it is cheap. BioBizz Alg-A-Mic - Hyjo Hydroponics Store

I would use this one if I could find it but it may take you longer to purchase which is why I put the BioBizz link up.

You are also going to need to do a foliar Cal/Mag. So, seems you said you already had the Cal/Mag, I would mix it up as directed for foliar feeding and hit it today. Then do a light spray with water tomorrow and the micronutrients the following day followed by a light spray of water. Make sure you spray the plants about 10 minutes before the lights come on and especially get the underside of the leaves. The top of the leaves as well, but that isn't as important.

Then, like I said earlier, on your next watering just do plain water and check your runoff. Especially the one where I described that you wait and push some out of the soil. That one is going to tell you exactly what your soil ph is and we can make corrections from those numbers. It may help, if you have a ec or ppm meter to check that as well. At least we will know how much nutrients is in the soil. Do the EC check with the water that is squeezed out as well. When you have all of that info, post it here and shoot me a pm. I will come over and look at it with you and see if we can figure out what is going on.

Yeah it looks like your soil isnt buffering as well as i thought it would. You really need to be up around 6.6-6.8. So what you need to do is get some garden lime. Not the granular but the powdered. Any big box store should have it cheap. Add 1 tablespoon for each gallon of soil you have. Mix it in your water when you water the next time. It wont dissolve but it will help it get into the soil more thoroughly that way. I would also continue watering at 7.0 for the time being. Check your runoff every time. As it gets to 6.5 then start watering at 6.6-6.8. That should get you back on track.

As far as the honey goes, there is nothing wrong with adding stuff like that but putting honey or anything else in there isn't a miraculous cure all for everything. Sometimes you need to actually take measurements and determine what is wrong instead of just dumping a bunch of stuff in your soil.
So add the lime only one time. That should be enough. The water and feed like you normally would except at a higher ph until you gey your soil back up to where it needs to be. Man you should be golden in just a couple of days to a week maximum. As always shoot me a pm if you have more questions and i will answer them in your thread.
