More pics I’ve been seeing of clawing leads me to believe you may be right about nitrogen. I run the Medina line of products...Medina plus and hasta gro 6-12-6. All organic..Soil is fox farms ocean, happy frog (brown bag can’t recall), worm castings and an old stand by flower power by lady bug (4-6-4 dry fert), fox farm big bloom, kangaroot and fed the soil critters molasses. Next grow same setup but water only is my thought, for now.
@Mizzo81 and you...No coco for me right now. Determined to figure this out!! Outdoors is so much easier. Well kind of. Except for weather and bugs. [emoji41]

I used fox farm for awhile and my most common problem was way to much nitrogen. The plants thrived in veg. Then the problems came in flower. It sounds like you have alot of things going on in the soil and that makes it way harder to try and find what the cause is. I used 50/50 happy frog and ocean forest which gave me ideal soil ph. Then I'd give them a 1/4 recommended dose of calmag at the transistion and 1/4 dose tiger bloom midflower once a week up until last two weeks. But in my opinion autoflowers and soil don't mix well. I was the biggest soil advocate for the longest time and then I tried one plant in coco coir and couldent believe how much better the results were I moved all my plants to coco and never looked back. Plus I reuse my coco so in the end I save more money than in soil and hardly ever have any issues. But if soil is what you prefer stick with it the best lessons are from trying new things and seeing what works and what dosent. If you can design a super soil mixture better suited for autoflowers with lower nitrogen levels I think you will be better off than using fox farm.
