Hello fellow growers
I have a bit of a problem going on it would seem. I have 2 white widow fems by Greenhouse Seeds but only 1 plant seems to have the issue.
Both plants are in 10 gal pots
Both plants are using BuildaSoil 3.0 as the medium
Both are at 5th week of flower
Grow space is a 4x4
Light is a Chilled Tech 600 watt
Temps are 75F - 80F, RH is 57% - fluxuation is depending on lights on/lights off.
I've looked over the plants and I haven't seen any unwanted guests.
I water every 3 days (keeping the soil moist)
BuildaSoil just like Earth Dust is on a water-only schedule. - I also feed her Recharge every 10 days and give her worm tea when my bubbler is working properly.
Also, buildasoil like Earth Dust has a "boost" concoction that you till in about 2 weeks before flower..
I may have put a little extra in .. so that's the nute burn in the pics. So here's a question, if the plant has nute burn should I cease and desist on the Recharge?
I was under the impression that most folks who use organic/living soil don't usually water until there is a runoff because you want to keep all the goodness in .. if I'm wrong on that, please let me know.
That being said, the pH in the soil has never been checked. Tomorrow is water day, I was going to go ahead and water until I get runoff and check the pH ..
I went ahead and gave 3ml of cal-mag last watering .. seems like things still have progressed.
Being living soil, it's not recommended to use synthetic nutes.
I am ass when it comes to remembering organic amendments and what they do - so once we figure out the issue .. maybe you kind folks could throw some recommendations my way.
Thank you for your time.
Oh and PS.
@Mr. Grow It I have 4 other beautiful ladies outside grown in Earth Dust, I can't say enough good things about it.
Pics: I pulled the infected plant out of the tent so I could take better pics. They look a little dark to me, if we need more pics, just let me know.
Infected leaves are found all over the plant, not just top or bottom.
Once again, thanks for your time.

Have you been keeping the top layer of soil moist the entire time? That was my mistake when I first started growing with organic inputs and top dressing. That top layer should be moist at all times so the amendments can be broken down by the microbes or else you'll see deficiencies. I had to also use a mulch layer and have used cover crops as well in order to help keep that top layer moist.
