Middle fan leaves fading yellow - Week 8

That looks like nitrogen deficiency, I would say to transplant into some fresh soil if it was not flowering yet. Try feeding it with something that has a higher N-value than what you are using.
 
Don't add micro again nutes need balance so for me I would add grow and your bloom nutes but don't go to crazy
 
You were feeding 50% of the time at 50% strength = feeding just 1/4 the reference/recommended dose. At over 56 days, you should generally be feeding at at least 1/2 that amount with most base nutes. And despite it seemingly being very common practice, just feeding pure water, particularly half the time, seems like it could add a lot of osmotic shock/stress. I think it better to give dilute feed (could vary from weak to strong) each time.

Keep in mind, yellow leaves do not turn green, do not repair themselves. What's happening with new growth is what really matters.

Hey so on the GH feed schedule I've been doing 11ml/L Micro, 2.5ml/L Grow, 17ml/L Bloom (50% of schedule). Do you have any recommended bumps/adjustments? I have Advanced Nutrients Cali Magic on hand as well but I've never had a use for it.

*seeing some fading progress to upwards part of plant, not aggressive but gradual.

Hey Bill yeah i'll admit I did run into a nutrient issues but only realized late in the grow so at this point im trying to stabilize what I can. I've been told because I have a mainly peat/coco base that I need to flush with tap water after every nutrient feeding. But since I am growing in low nutrient soil I could see adding nutrients every feed as a possibility. Not sure tho.

I would stop using as much micro it's just not needed and could be contributing to ur problems I would lower micro up grow a bit 1ml or so see how she reacts I've noticed that autos tend to need a higher amount of nitrogen in flower compared to a photo so that's wat I would do. A good rule of thumb is a max of 200ppm nitrogen and 125ppm for p and k that's wats been found to be ideal now many things can affect overall how a plant grows input wise never mind genetics.

Does 200 ppm N, 125 ppm P, and 125 ppm K translate to 8-5-5 in base nute terms?

To be 100% I'm not sure as this is something I'm starting to really get into and understand better so I don't want to give you the wrong info there I can look into that

That does seem pretty close though and probably good enuff but will see if I can't find info on it.

CALiMAGic is made by Gen. Hydroponics (GH), not Adv. Nutr. (AN). CALiMAGic is 1-0-0, while the AN product I recall is 4-0-0 (a good dose of nitrogen, which you may not want). I only use the AN product for foliar feeding where I want that much nitrogen besides the Ca and Mg. CALiMAGic is used as needed in regular feeding.
