I have grown in waterfarms before with good success - but my situation changed and I can't keep the reservoirs cool enough so I decided to go Hempy. The first thing everyone will want is pics - sorry, I'll explain it the best I can and hopefully someone will be kind enough to try and help me. This is my third hempy grow and the same thing happens each time - when I move them to the flower room - within a week they show signs of what I believe to be a mag. def. - the lower and middle fan leaves begin to get lighter green between the veins -each day they get worse until week three they are totally yellow between the veins and starting to brown on edges. The veg room has fluorescents with a constant temp of around 78 degrees. The plants look great there until I move them. I use GH 3 part with Cal-Mag. pH is 5.8 (even in the run off - I check it everytime). PPM is 650 (even in the run off). I run 2 - 600w HPS - the temp at the tops of the plants is around 88 when the lights are on with a 48% humidity. Constant air flowing. I have tried foliar feeding with epsom salts, I have bought new nutes, I tried 6.2 pH like Hempy suggested, I tried 5.5 pH, I've basically tried everything I can think of and the problem keeps occuring. I'm sorry this is so long but I'm at my wits end - it seriously affects my yield. Any help from the experts would be greatly appreciated.
