Would I be right in stating that the rule of thumb for a deficiency is yellowing and necrosis, while toxicities normally cause dark green and other colors?

Its been awhile and my plant lost all its fan leaves but I now think this is normal for autos. I added 1/3 strength nutes a few times and it got greener. I mistook a deficiency for a toxicity. My plant is 1-2 weeks away and I estimate a 1oz yield.

I just read that Autoflowers aren't ideal for cloning so regardless I'll have to find a normal strain if I want a SOG. Apparently the clones keep the same age as the parent and die when the parent dies. I don't know but that's what I read.

This plant is 2 months old from a seed I found in a bag. Is it just me or is this an Autoflower variety? I've been keeping the lights on so I don't understand the bud growth and frosting. Please excuse the horrible nutrient burns.

Pruned off some damaged lower leaves..food pellets probably were a bad idea.

I flushed it prior to that picture so that could definitely be the problem, thanks a lot. I'm thinking just doing a quart of pure water every four days.

Background: some leaves became like this shortly after applying 4-4-4 pellets including calcium and magnesium, then soaking the soil. The plant is 6 weeks old, in veg under low light conditions. Also, why is this plant getting pistils that turn orange if I haven't initiated a bloom cycle yet?

That's pretty funny that you say that...because I read it immediately after flushing the pot! Note the N-tox talons. Wish me luck over the next 5 days.

I'm like, super poor right now. It'll survive. I'll just leave it alone for four or five days and use a more balanced nute in a few weeks with fresh water in between. I'll post a pic next week after its soaked up the soil.

Actually I've built my own fogponics machine before. This time around I'm too poor to get the right nutrients. I just double potted it into wet soil and gave it some Superthrive, I don't think it looks too bad. This is 5 weeks in from seed. I'm just going to leave it alone for a few days. It...

I was afraid to flush it because I've watered it too much. Which is worse...nitrogen toxicity or flooded soil in your opinion?

You're blowing my mind. I water every three days but I left this pot outside in the rain several times so its had more than its share of water. Also, my fish fert is 5-1-1 with no minor nutrients mentioned, need to change that. I saw a bottled water at the store advertising 8ph, maybe I can...

Perhaps...I've never taken a pH reading. I'm now watering with room temp purified fridge water and a light dose of Superthrive.

Cal/Mag deficiency shown with leaf cupping and brown spots. Using nutrients with no minor elements listed in the ingredients. If this looks like something other than a calcium, manganese or magnesium deficiency, please comment.

Dark green blades and sharply curved tips. If you think this is something else, please comment. This plant is on liquid fish fertilizer 5-1-1.
