    Morning DGC! Doing my morning routine before work and I noticed these 2 in the back, 1 with spots forming on a few leaves (golden goat) and the other showing yellowing to her and leaves with some copper coloring (ice cream). The 2 Raspberry kush up front look good, can’t see anything. The tent is sitting at day 16 of flower. Just wanted to ask to see where I can start and not go OVER board like I tend to? Thanks 🙏

    -Build A Soil 3.0 w/ build a flower mixed

    -Worm castings

    -Cover layer- Red fir mulch

    -Weekly feedings of Build a Bloom and big6

    -RO water

    -Real buckets

    I think that’s it. A lot of shit to remember that I probably forgot 🤣

    They all look good but a little hungry to me. I stopped getting spots like that when I added a little bit of epsom. Are you using any cal-mag with the RO water?

      I have not. My res is straight water, then top water with microbes once a week

        I googled your soil and I know nothing about growing in organic soil. I think you’ll get much better advice from people that use the same. I grow in coco and my observations were based only on that.

    Check the PH in your res, if it is good i would slowly increase nitrogen.

    RO water has no mineral or pH buffer. I’d bet your soil pH is slowly going out of range, limiting mineral availability.

    Golden goat is known to suck up the nitrogen in late veg and early flower. I heard many keep giving it till week 5. Its a heavy feeder of it.

    I will take a look at my soil ph tomorrow morning. This is my first run with RO water in the res. All the other grows I used my well water and the plants thrived. I was trying to go for a hands off approach this run with the water so I hooked up a float valve to the res
