Day 15 First problem, confused...

[Milo77]

DAY 15. The first problem has shown its face and i do not know what it could be. Pictures below.

gbd super soil mix
roots original
earthworm castings
extra perlite

Mammoth p @ 1ml per gallon
Rhizotonic @ 5ml per gallon
Recharge @ 1tbls per gallon Day 7 and Day 14

Distilled water from air stone oxygenated res.
One liter of water every other day.
Today i started 2 liters of water.

Temps 74-79
Humidity 45-57

Mg.
Get some Epsom salt and proper pH solution.

Skip the rhysotonic and mammoth P. gbd's mix doesnt need anything but myco 1 time a week. Use your cold water to fill your bubble bucket, as warm water has more metals in it. Could be something as simple as not enough mixing the gbd mix with the roots original.

Looks like a little heat stress too. Btw how far is the light?

The reason I’m saying heat is because of the light tacoing and 3D appearance of the leaf ridges. However the discoloration and spotted paling of the leaves may indicate magnesium def. are all your plants like this or just the one?

Over watering maybe? 0.5 litres a day seems an awful lot at day 15? I think for a hand watered plant I would have given less than a litre total by day 15.

I always lean to checking pH a hundred times before saying it is deficiency, especially in young plants. I agree that this looks like lights close or maybe low ventilation because the temps are good.

So we know for sure:
over watering is likely, there are Mg deficiency leaf symptoms, and some early environmental stress.

what we need to know:
Pot pH level, feed pH level, and how you are checking pH. As well as what lights, and at what distance.

i don't have to check the ph, its all organic

That does indeed sound high, I have 5 going on 18 days, and they get 1 quart (.94 L) every 4th day... just misting in between.

Just because it's "organic" doesn't mean you don't monitor ph, that's a perfect way to set yourself up for a failure. Don't know how many times I've heard the i don't need to check, it's organic, only to find out that was indeed the issue.

I only water the outside edge of the pot and i'm only watering if its dry which it has been. I asked gbd himself if i had to ph if i used distilled or ro water, he responded that i do not have to. 5 gallon smart pots
