~4 gallons of soil. The plant was in the same pot for the entire veg/bloom cycle, grew to just under 3 feet tall.
Is this what root bound looks like?
:thanks:
@fanleaf, I didn't notice any problems in veg or for the first few weeks of flower. I've heard a gallon of soil for each foot of growth, is 3.5 gallons of soil for a 2.5ft plant not enough? I don't see roots crowding the top or bottom of the soil, any other way I can tell for sure?
I've seen calculations for NPK done a few different ways and want to get the facts straight.
Nutrients:
Veg Nutrient: 9-3-6
Bloom Nutrients 3-12-6
Mag Pro - 2-15-4
Protekt 0-0-3
Where N = NH4 and NO3 , P = P205 , and K = K2O
Is it as simple as averaging the numbers off the bottle...
Thanks BruntFCA, I agree that is likely the problem. I created an N deficiency and didn't catch it fast enough. The plants grow beautifully through veg, no problems whatsoever. After flushing before bloom, I only used 1/2tsp of DG Bloom with an NPK ratio of 1-4-2 (3-12-6). I'm going to change my...

Leaves are yellowing, getting brown spots, wilting, and then falling off, all in that order. This is only about 3 weeks into flower.
My pennywise had the same problem and I never solved it. Now my other three plants are having the same symptoms. The most recent watering I reformulated my...
