New Grower New Grower Having Problems! Day 39

[Tim Miller]

My first grow spent most of its life waterlogged.heavy sandy soil.next grow wernt much better i added a load of vermiculite as i couldnt find perlite,waterlogged again.found perlite and now my soil is light and fluffy and can give the pot a good soaking almost everyday.20% added to soil can make a big difference.

Dude I have done sooooo much research before I started this grow it’s not even funny. Took me probably seven months to research and gather all the needed equipment and to finally get it all started! I was really hoping to not make too many mistakes which I think I’m on the right track.

I run my Autopots in layers. First layer is the filter( basically it's landscaping cloth), then clay pebbles about 4" worth, then I go half way with 60/40 coco/clay pebble mix, and the top half gets 70/30 coco/perlite. Seems to support plant better in all phases, especially during root development of weeks 2 to 4.
But, that's just me. There are so many ways that work.

Hmmm I’m gonna have to look into this kinda method a little bit more. This intrigues me!

So this morning I did an epsom salt folliar spray. I did pluck off all the very very bad leaves but left some of the slight yellowed ones because I wanna see if they progress or just stay the same. Today’s pics are of the leaves that I left alone that aren’t too gone yet.

I guess we’ll see if this mag treatment cures my baby girl!

So I did one kinda heavy epsom salt folliar spray and another light one about twelve hours later, this was two days ago. The one big fan leaf is definitely still getting a little worse. Should I do another spray? Or maybe a feed into the soil?
