Maybe cut back on the nitrogen for awhile? I'm not a dirt farmer so I'm just spittin' in the wind.

Some areas look like N tox. Some look like N deficiency. And some look like calcium deficiency.
So we either killed it by locking it out further or it will start it's recovery tomorrow.
We did the exact opposite of your suggestion. First time since the flush we gave her full strength nutes and added the CalMag+ and B-52 back into the mix... it's a make or break situation unfortunately.
But I got the Mimosa we're going to pop, and we have more seeds were gonna start with it soon..
SkunkOG has been a problem child since day 1. I wouldn't even consider it a loss if we chop it down. It's been quite stressful to attempt to keep it healthy when everything else is doing just fine.
Stay tuned update on everything except the skunk incoming.

I remember back when I was a dirt farmer. I felt safe then as Matt Dillon was marshal of my town. That’s right…I am from Dodge City but sometimes I am from this confusing town called Mayberry where the town drunk locks himself up.
No…no I am sure of it this time. Green acres is the place to be if you are the level of dirt farmer I am.

All the burn shown on these was from the IPM oils not drying enough before the lights came back on. Nothing on new growth and no further signs of issues with anything else.

SkunkOG clones. I took an even dozen. If their mother doesn't make it, at least we have these.
Picked up and old 4 bulb T5HO for $20 on Facebook. Love these lights for cloning.
Cheap knockoff brand cloning trays came with short tops. So we cut one roof off and taped a second on to raise it 2".

Everything got hit full strength today. We should start to see results tomorrow. Trial and error hobbies are fun.
I clone my problem children too. If I loose the main I'll have backup...good move.

Don’t make me send Hazel to straighten you outI'm oldish.... but my mom had to help me with these references
I'm so sick of calmag. If I have to start drowning my plants with the stuff I'm going to stop growing.

Me too that’s why I no longer use it
Don't use it,,,I was just trying to be helpful. I don't drown my plants with anything. I feed them what they are asking for. If they need CalMag that's what they get.
I don't have those brown spots in my garden on my veggies, fruits or weed.
I have a huge garden. Anyway. It was a suggestion. You do you.
The first signs of a CalMag deficiency can be spotted in the new growth coming from the plant. If new leaves show signs of yellowing between the leaf veins with brown spots, curling (or parachuting) of the leaf tips, and stunted growth, you should suspect a CalMag deficiency.

I don’t use calmag because I understand the past. Calmag only came into its own because people look to the future and nobody understand the past.
The reason they didn’t need Calmag for tomatoes in the past is because they used fast acting lime. Now it’s almost forgotton
I don't live in or worry about the past. Times change and science of Botany gets better as do fertilizers, light's,and many other things.
This is a community that tries to help each other. It was a suggestion.
As I said,,you do you. If it works that's great. I'm happy for you.
Judging by those pictures,,,those plants need help,,so I made a suggestion.

I am not talking about this in a derogatory way. I am sorry if it came off like that.
What I am saying is new isn’t necessarily better. While I don’t use calmag anymore I do use something that adds calcium and magnesium that people used before calmag was ever invented. Thats all I am saying

I don't use calmag, either. My well water has lots of calcium, and I add Epson's salt for the magnizem.
Both of my grandfathers were county and state fair champs with there tomatoes. And they swore by calmag just for their tomatoes. Nothing else got calmag. And the tomato grows were separated from there other veggies and ornamental grows. One was a cotton farmer most of his life and owned a gin. The other was raised on a farm and left to make his mark in the industrial world. But in retirement they took gardening very serious. But in recent years I've seen a major explosion of calmag use. Most seem to blame the calmag use on LED lighting. But I can't find the correlation between the two. And I'm never said there is not a use for it. But it seems to be the goto problem solver now days. The commercial growers here just drown there plants with the stuff. Walk into a weed shop and all you smell is calmag. It's awful! My gut is telling me the breeders have all but ruined weed and it's becoming more problematic to grow. Seems like the more they mess with it the worse it gets as a plant.
