so maybe im hoping that fixes this.

well here is a fix for you your growing organic and to me leafs seem very early signs of phos issues

Bone meal, animal manure or rock phosphate start adding some more your going to need it to complete your grow

 

[Ruffy]

followed the mix, its very strong
i shouldnt have to add more


18cf organic soil or Pro mix or the like
2cf rice hulls
1tb per gal of medium or 12c, soybean meal
1tb per gal of medium or 12c, alfalfa meal
10lb's bone meal
18 cups Dolomite lime
4lb's epsom
6lb's rock phosphate
5lb's Azomite
1c humic acid
6lb's kelp meal
6lb's green sand
8lb's Bio-tone/Plant-tone(depot)

What is your Ph?
It looks like Mg deficency, But that mix seems to have plenty, again whats your PH at?

Here is Magnesium deficiency.

shouldn't have to worry about ph much with that mix, the lime should buffer?

It should, but its the first thing to check when try to diagnose. you run a big risk of making things worse if you just add more without knowing.

I agree it apears to have plenty with that epson salt in there, thats why I want to know the PH.

It looks like my soil recipe, lol. Some limes are slow to start working. It looks like cal/mag to me, but could very easily be nute lock out.

magnesium deficiency was my first thought, but given that you are using super soil That shouldn't be an issue. My question would be how good is your microbe herd. If you added plenty of microbes to the soil early on and allowed it to "cook" for a month or more with good moisture then they should have the soil right, but if you didn't get enough microbe activity(allowing the soil to dry out, or not feeding the microbes well enough) it could be that they haven't chelated the magnesium enough to keep up with the plants' needs. I would water it with some organic tea, with some molasses and even a boost of microbes and see if that helps them catch up.

Bet ya a dollar to a doughnut its soil gnats. Organic soils and ALFALFA are prime sources for housing fungus (soil) gnats. The white leaf bleching only gets worse as the larvae begin to eat the roots and not the organic matter.

 

[Ruffy]

its a potassium def, till gets going, then shes fine, mollasses foiler spray fixes the issue
its not gnats! i dont have bugs

 

[johnnylongjohns]

How do you correct a potassium deficiency?

 

[Ruffy]

i used 2 tbl spoon of mollasses in foiler container & foiler feeed the plants, it seemd to work very well, takes about 2-3 weks to show up & the leaves that were showing signs will never get better!~
