New Grower TomFoolery plants a seed...

DAY 49 update:
Thanks for the input. Cal-mag deficiency was the winning answer. Upped the dose to 2tsp/gal and pushed as much thru as they'd take for the past week. Within a few days, the color was looking better. I keep thinking the stretch is over, only to check the next day and raise the light again. Tall girls are 40" and the lst's are 28". Not that I'm really complaining, I'm just anxious to see some buds. Thought I'd be there by now.
Both Criticals are pushing out pistils, NLBB not so much. But everybody eats from the same table, so a few days ago they got a clean water flush, and yesterday their first bloom feed.

How do we decide what stays and what goes?
I don't want them in therapy, blaming all of life's problems on poor parenting.

Thanks ahead for your opinions.
 
The girls are coming along!! Veery nice, indeed! They make my plant look like a short n fat midget!
 
Awesome looking ladies man. And thanks for the friend request :)
 
Morning Tom,

Your plants look great, happy o hear your figured out your issue. Most autos are cal/mag hogs. Using your water filter was making things worse since it was removing minerals from your water.

Here is another symptom chart that I like for future reference.

Looks like you have things dialed in pretty well at this point, good luck
 
Looking fantastic! Great density, size and structure...those are going to pack it on....hang tough :)
 
Awesome looking! Fantastic grow so far! Patience, my friend ...
 
HELP! Suggestions needed. PLEASE!
Still having cal-mag/nute problems, pale leaves, spotting, ect.
I received my control wizard accurate 8 in the mail today.
I almost wish I hadn't. Ignorance was bliss.
My soil pH is in the tank. All are low.
The worst two are the Criticals.
4.6 and 5.2. I'm surprised they are still alive at all, and I'm worried they won't be for long.
Is there anything that can be done this late in the game to raise it? I think I'm on day 53. If I scratch the soil away, I can see root fibers about 1/2" below the surface, and I've filled the pots to the top, so I don't really have any space in them to add amendments.
I'm open to any ideas or suggestions, short of chucking them in the bin, and starting over.
C'mon ganga gurus, show me some magic!
Please and Thank You.
 
Talk to Waira about a hydrated lime treatment (gotta be careful, that stuff is heavy duty from what I understand) and look into a foliar feed of cal/mag...I don't know if it can be done so close to harvest but you may be able to carefully spray just the fan leaves...

And certainly post up in AFNs Live Help forum...
 
Thanks Trapper, I'm no where near harvest. I'll go to live help now...
