For what its worth newbie perspective, right one looks more eager!
But after looking at this I think my girl must be a dwarf yum yum.

to be honest if he was to take your course of action there are gonna be 2 outcomes

1. he will spray his plants with the lights on and cause even more problems as the high penertraion from the l.e.d will burn his leaves making the situation 10 times as worse

2. by spraying his leaves he is only masking over the problem and not getting to the root cause of why he has got a magnesium defeciency so its only gonna be a temporay fix

my soloution

1. test auto #5 was pulled for a reason so it might not even be anything your doing wrong

2. your using r/o water with canna aqua nutrients which are designed for hard water this will mean it has less cal/mag in the bottles than if you were was using soft water nutrients, the only reason i know this is becasue 90% of re-sellers in the uk only stock canna aqua in hard water format cause of our tap water unless of course you did buy canna aqua soft water nutrients in which case go to the next option lol

3. your only feeding her on 1.0ec where if you was to follow the canna aqua grow guide by week 3-4 you should be on 1.1 -1.4, this is the recommened dosage for just normal feeding, i have no idea if your plant is an agressive feeder or a light feeder but sticking in the normal range is good , if you are under feeding then their will still not be enough cal/mag in the base feed to sustain growth hence the defeciency
r/o water is like starting with nothing so you have the opertunity to make up what ever ratios you want but id also look into getting soft water nutrients

4.i always warm my calibration fluid to 75 degress before doing a calibration check and its always stored in a glass of water at the end of every use because the probe is ALWAYS meant to be kept moist for accuracy purposes, IF IT DRIES IT DIES, ph wants to be 5.6-5.7 in veg and 5.8 - 6.0 flower

5. if your gonna take kush-t's advice then spray your plants after lights out so it gives them time to absorb what they need and the rest to evapourate

good luck

Thanks for the input mate. I had actually thought about soft water nutes but isn't adding the cal mag to make a starting point of .4 essentially making the water about right? Mind you I'm sure it can't hurt to try the extra elements in the water might be enough to stop this problem! I'll look in to getting some.

I'd go for the one on the right by the way. Looks like it will be a bigger plant with more bud sites.

Cheers

Right one :howdy:

Girl on the right for me dude.

I agree the one on the right!

no there is more to it than that, click this link for indepth topic mate and it will probably help you get a better understanding of whats going on with hard water vs soft

click me

cheers for the votes peeps

im guessing there is an overwhelming majority for the plant on the right then lol and i was leaning towards the 1 in the middle because of her colour and how well she is stacked not to mention my growers instinct

 

[TaNg]

Go with your instinct dude,it's not let u down before. I imagine they would both end up being epic with the environment you give them.

I was thinking the middle/left one but thought I'll say nothing... Coz I'll prob be wrong again... If I'm judging this correctly the one in the middle/left has the tornado of a root system... I'd go with her... The one on the right as fine as she looks... That bitch is gonna stretch into a gangly looking thing.. The size of the buds you grow I see another tiaga episode..

TIMBER!! :ama:

Where as the one in the middle/left looks more squat & compact with tighter mode spacing... & more budsites.. That's what I'd be looking for in a MJ lady...

My

For what it's worth...

That was an interesting read! I actually did some more research last night and what is said in that post confirms something I read on another forum. I've been maintaining ph of 5.8 but it's been rising every day and I've been manually bringing it back down. What I've read is that the softness of the ro water stops the ph buffers in the canna nutes working and it's especially bad if you're pumping O2 in to water. So my new solution is to have a mix of ro water and tap water to get a starting ec of .4 this should help with the cal mag deficiencies and shortly eh buffers out.

You still used some sensical on top of thisdidn't you? How much did you add?

Cheers
