How do we count days? From above ground? If that's the case this is Day 15 for Dx3 and Day 14 for CQ.

I don't think a flush is necessary. You just need to try raising the ph of your water the next time you water your plants. Filtered/RO/Distilled water lacks nutrients that tap water naturally has, including calcium. Your soil has a calcium source in it, so the filtered/non filtered water thing doesn't really matter right now. I'd focus more on the ph of the water you're using. If you have some epsom salt lying around or at a store close by, you could use 1 tsp per gallon of water as a cal/mag foliar spray. That will get the nutes directly to the plant through its leaves.

I sprayed them this morning with epsom salt at 7.2ph. They really perked up 12 hours later. Dx3 was really drooping again before I sprayed. Thanks! Do you think it's okay to use epsom salt again when it's time to water? I was looking into potassium silicate or calcium carbonate for increasing PH.

I'm still messing around with climate control and want to sort out active ventilation after that. I bought a controller for a radiant space heater. It does okay with 2 fans running in the tent. I have a 12W small fan I'd like to wire up to the cooling output on the controller as an exhaust fan as I will need to do something about the smell soon.

Looking speckled on new growth.

CQ with some spots, can't tell yet if it's on the new growth, but check out that set of 4 leaves...

Why don't you post a pic in the infirmary and have them give you an answer pretty fast if we cant answering for you. Waira is good at that stuff and can get it right. If you're getting this type of growth consistently you should ask waira to get at least an idea if theres a nutrient deficiency. I just want you getting a good grow

Thank you! I have a thread here: https://www.autoflower.org/threads/...cx3bog-and-purple-stems-on-cosmic-queen.74731

@Arthur gave a good explanation of soil PH and my water was at 5.9. I had left the runoff from the last watering in cups so I checked it and the runoff was 6.4 for CQ and 6.6 for Dx3. Hopefully the next watering fixes it. I will keep things updated here. I appreciate all the help!
