Is this iron deficiency? Or albino plant?
I have 12 plants growing in a sea of green. All of them are growing in 3 gallon bags in the same medium (peat moss, perlite, plus lime to adjust the pH to 6.5)
All of them are perfect except this one. Imagine if you cut a lime in half. The entire plant is the color of the inside of a lime. None of the leaves are droopy or have any imperfections. The plant would be perfect if not for the pale color. I've tried giving her some more fertilizer at 6.6pH. (I use pureblend pro grow by bonicare). When that didn't work, I foliar fed her. That did not work. The pH run off is 6.5.
It has been this color since it sprouted from seed. I noticed that the new growth
on top is a light yellow/white color. So I am guessing maybe iron deficiency? I'm posting pics of her next to one of my other plants and another pic of her new growth on top. All 11 girls are the same color green except this one.stinkbudd Reviewed by stinkbudd on . Is this iron deficiency? Or albino plant? I have 12 plants growing in a sea of green.

What generation are your beans & what strain?
Looks to be totally genetic to me, just an oddball. Would not be uncommon out of 12 if the strain has not been bred to stabilization.

Shoot, looks healthy to me, except that it is really, really pale!
Are you going to try to grow it out? I'd be curious as to what your results are!

Is this iron deficiency? Or albino plant?
Last year I had a few skunkberry plants and bred one of the females with the only male. She produced over 200 good seeds for me and these plants came from those seeds. I don't see any harm in keeping her so I'll see what happens. Today I gave her some iron anyway. If she doesn't green up then I won't give her any more nutes. I noticed today that the new growth on the top is now totally white. I've never heard of any albino cannabis plant in all my research. Only claims without proof. It will be interesting to see what happens though.

Try teaspoon of miracid in a gallon of water. You canget it at almost any hardware store or nursery. Within 2 weeks it should be nice and dark green.

What is miracid? I asked my husband and he's never heard of it. Is it specifically for plants?
