Soil grow in 50/50 light warrior and black gold organic

juat started adding nutes at about 200ish ppm / tds

also adding orca bennies and hygrozyme
 
Hi!
By the looks of it I'd say it could be iron deficieency or light burn. I'm just a student myself so you should wait for a teacher with more experience.
Good luck man!
 
What's the ph?
 
I've just raised lighting

Pyru-... This kind of yellowing, on new growth, usually means some immobile nute' is involved, but on a young plant, it's less certain,... initially, I though Fe or S, but the way it's yellowing-- tips/edges in, is backwards from what Fe and S do,... other, lower leaves look Mg defc., and with high demand on new growth in a younger plant like this, even a mobile nute like Mg might not be able to keep up,...lack of spotting/necrosis fits as well,... If the soil pH is 5.8, that's borderline, though not lockout range yet,...feed her more, and get that soil pH up to mid 6's,... and make your fert's fresh, no using hydro' res' leftovers! The pH requirements are very different, as is the whole chemistry,... BTW, what kind of water are you using?.. RO/DI, tap, a mix..?

I am am using tap water now, ph is at 6.5 and ppm around 30ish

Think I should water her with tap plus only cal-mag? Like 5ml per gallon?

i don't want to overwater, but at this point is it better to overwater to correct the deficiency or wait til she dries out more then water


whats weird is my hydro plants have the same deficiency discoloration
