Overall pale appearance, dropping leaves.
The leaf droop is probably from overwatering. It is a must to let oxygen to the root zone, and if you water every day, you are "flushing" out all the air that gets trapped as the soil dries. They may have even wilted in the past if you were watering daily then also. Try to let the soil dry out some, I use 5 gallon pots and water every 3rd or 4th day with approx a half gallon of water/nutrients depending on schedule. There is always some dry time in between waterings, and IMHO, the drier days I usually notice more growth.
Also, I hesitate to comment on your PH with MG soil, I have been scolded for commenting on MG because I have no experience with it. That being said, since no one else is here I feel I must, after all it's just another soil. Ideally, soil ph should fall in around the 6.5 mark. It is imperative that you do a runoff test (sticky in the plant problem forum I believe) to see how your water is interacting with your medium. You may not be seeing outright symptoms as of yet, but ph can get out of control rather quickly.
For example, if your medium began at 6.5ph out of the bag (hypothetical, I have no clue what MG is out of the bag) and you have been adding 7.2 to 7.4 water daily, it won't take long for the buffer in the soil to give and your ph will shoot up. Hopefully one of the MG gurus will rear their head and help you out, just thought I'd throw something at you in the meantime.irydyum Reviewed by irydyum on . Overall pale appearance, dropping leaves. Things were going so well.....sigh. Hello, newbie here. I'm looking for some input on my 'lil grow project. A friend showed me some pictures of a ScROG setup and I thought I'd give it a go. Started out with some bag-seed. Germination, and (for the most part) veg growth went ok. About a week before my planned switch from veg to flower, the newer leaves and growing tips took on a pale appearance. The problem came on rather suddenly. The oldest fan leaves yellowed, and some developed areas Rating: 5
