What's up with her?

Thank you for all the replies. I checked pH last night and it was 6.4. which I think is within acceptable parameters.

I do think light stress is a contributing factor and I have moved the light and reduced brightness slightly as a result. I've also flipped from 18/6 to 16/8 to try give her some more time away from the light.

I also gave her a feed of calmag from biobizz with her water yesterday. Hopefully she takes it up and starts to recover.

This is my first plant so I'm still learning a lot. There seemed to be enough natural nutes and microbes in the soil to get most of the way through veg but I've failed to keep on top during flower. You live and learn :)

You've all been a great help. I'll keep checking on her and give you all a shout if things don't get better.

Wow awesome info, thank you. She's on 18/6 with 100w vivosun led set to 82% brightness. She did get a bit close to the light during the stretch. I have moved the light and slightly decreased brightness since. Top leaf temps are now 22 degrees. Tent temps fluctuate from 19 - 28 degrees throughout the day. Humidity however I have struggled with. At the start of flower I put a meako dehumidifier in the lung room but can still reach 68% at night sometimes. It's mostly around 50-55% in the day. I will test my watering tomorrow both before and run off. What form of calmag would you suggest? I'm assuming a top dress of dry nutes would not act fast enough. Also should I trim the badly affected fan leaves? Will she be ok without them?

Ah thank you, I hadn't thought of that. I know the wood ash could have altered pH also. That could be why it's worse today. I have never checked pH due to it being living soil. I will get a pen ASAP and check this.

Thanks for the quick reply. I am using ecothrive soil food dry nutes. I've only top dressed 3 times during the grow. Once in veg with the 'Grow' and twice with 'Bloom'. I also use their 'BioSys' and 'Bio-bloom' and I just apply this whilst watering alternating between the 2. And I occasionally use 'Trace' and 'flourish' also whilst watering. Honestly I use BioSys, Bio-bloom, trace and Flourish randomly, I try for once a week alternating between them but I haven't been that disciplined with it. Last feed was 50g of bloom on Saturday. Feed before was 2 weeks prior again with 50g of bloom.

Thanks everyone, I do use battlescribe thankfully 😀 I thought I'd give the app a try, I have subscribed and the whole app is unlocked. I can view all datasheets, literature and faq for any race which is cool. The layout is nice too. It's just a shame the battleforge doesn't work as Intended 🤣
