right now im only giving her watter and molasses at ph6.0-6.4, and was wondering opinins on the nutes im going to order

Early Mg def
Since you are already feeding calmag, I'm going to go with lockout.
Check your soil pH..

I thought magnesium deficiencies began near the edge of the leaves? These plants just seem to have a little striping between veins. I am interested, because I have two plants that look a lot like this, but I haven't done anything, and they're coming along just fine. Personally I thought it was just a mild stress reaction to either transplanting or changing the color of the light.
For the time being, I'm doing nothing unless the plants start showing evidence of a real problem.

No, that's a classic mild Mg def. It is often confused with N def by nOObs because they both fit the description of intraveinal chlorosis, but Mg def is more even and regular stripes.

After you check the soil ph, I would recommend checking the temperatures. My leaves looked just like that, I too thought it was a Mg deficiency, but it ended up being high heat/intense light from a 400w HPS literally 8-9'' away.
Also, I don't know about lockout; he said that he was going to order calmag, he is only using h2o & molasses as of now....correct acidboy? And Khronik, possibly changing of the light?

Well, there's a very good chance that in my case the problem is heat. My plants are in my attic, and even though I have a vent fan going, it sometimes gets 90 degrees outside, and it'll only be hotter inside. But I figure, if they can grow great weed in countries like Thailand, a little heat isn't going to do too much damage.
I know plants turn lighter green under HPS, I thought maybe the leaves were turning lighter unevenly. I have my dark cycle timed to occur during the hot part of the day, so the light actually isn't contributing much to the heat problem, it's just a matter of not having AC.
I found a picture of a plant with a slight magnesium deficiency, but it doesn't look like mine. I attached it, if anyone's interested.

ok so my fathers friend came over today, and bening an oldschool grower, took a look at my plant and told me to trim the upper fan leves to "increas" yeald mind you my girl has been flowering for a little under 2 weeks nowand he jsut clipped the majority of the upper fan leves, jsut leaving the major nodes they where "blooming", did he jsut kill my girl?
getting my pureblend pro bloom, and cal-mag plus any recomandations on feeding, ive been giving her molasses and water at a 6.0-6.5 ph

just finished a 3 gallon flush, checked the ph of the run off, and last flush was at ph 6.4 from 8.5 on the soil, and its was 7.9 on the first flush
added some pics, so you guys can give me some comments,

I've always heard not to trim the fan leaves because they're used for nutrient storage, but if this guy does it regularly, it can't be that detrimental to your plant's growth.

wrong ... don't trim your fan leaves ... the fan leaves are like solar panels for your plant, your friend should go home and trim his own plants, and leave yours alone :jointsmile:

Well, my point was that it's not going to kill his plant, but it's still a bad idea. I'd say that's a fair assessment.

first grow, and cone was given to me, its a learning exp, next time around ima try from seed, and some composted cow manure, cuz this ph fluxiation crap is pissing me off, should have listend to stinkyattic, wait it did, but there was not composted cow poo where i went, oh well, strike one up for learning, and he didnt prune all the fan leves, i think thers still some there
