New Grower My First Grow. Finally. Feedback appreciated!

Your first girl looks hungry. The other two are going to be stand outs. Should be a fun grow.

I think you're right and that's she's hungry.

Thanks! Yeah, the Fastbuds Northern Lights were germinated ten days after the Seedsman purple punch freebie. They're probably better genetics, but also I've had the benefit of correcting mistakes I've made on their poor older sister. Oh well, I'll get Violet across the finish line one way or the other. :smoking:

Ive seen big things from those Northern Lights and I expect no less from this grow.

Great job bro! Even if you had troubles at the first time, it seems like the first one will end up with a nice size. The other two have already started very well.

Thanks! What a pleasure and a joy it is to grow.

So yesterday I fed Violet again. Because I'd fed her 600ppm of Jack's 1-2-3 the previous watering (she was already moist so she didn't take a lot of it), I was afraid to feed her too much, so I gave her 400ppm. This time she was ready for water so I just slowly watered until she was saturated.

I feel like I'm seeing a very clear phosphorous deficiency:

Probably deficient of calcium too, and who knows what else. Assume she wants something that is causing her to be too yellow too. I don't think it's necessarily nitrogen, as it's not happening on mostly older leaves, but also brand new leaves. Not sure though. I don't think it's light stress, because it's not just happening on the top, and I'm keeping an eye on PPMD. It could be from under-watering, but hopefully I'm not doing that at this point. Definitely not overwatering.

I'm working on figuring out how aggressively I should feed her given her deficiencies. Like, should I be more aggressive with food until she's looking better? Should I just feed her once a week? Less? Not sure, but I'm gonna try to figure it out by the next time she takes water, which will be tomorrow I think.

Does this look like a phosphorus deficiency to you, @Mañ'O'Green? Any advice based in the images above?

She was deficient in several nutrients and that damage was done days to weeks ago. It just does not show up right away and it does not go away. You should fertigate, water, water, repeat. Do not fertilize every time the pot needs water. Do not use any bio-stimulants (fishshit) except kelp and humic acid.

The new growth looks better but not great yet. Don't go crazy - steady as she goes.

Got it, very helpful. Thanks. I don’t have kelp or humid acid and have never considered using them before. Are you saying you think I should be, or are you just saying it would be okay to do so if I chose?

I consider kelp and Humic Acid as standard additions and use them regularly. This is a big part of the secret sauce in a lot of nutrient lines. They have lots of secret stuff.

Just a little update on Johanna and Klara, who I think are doing great in Day 29 from sprout. I’ve opened them some with LST but I haven’t been able to do a lot because they’re just so bushy. Gonna try to keep them happy as they move into flower.
