Not sure whats wrong... magnesium??

Hello everyone-

I have 4-ak47s growing everything seems to be going well. It will be 2 weeks flowering on saturday and I have noticed two leaves on one of the plants and am unsure what could be wrong. I just top feed some peace of mind fruit and flower two days ago and am using the moonshine mix. Ph is good, temps are good, i'm thinking its magnesium but wanted to get a second opinion.

 
It may be magnesium but IME Mg deficiency more gradually yellows starting from the outside of the leaf.

What you are seeing (the yellow) are the beginning of necrotic patches. Soon they will turn brown.

I would re-check your PH, that looks like the start of Mag/Cal def from low/high PH, you too rocket'. If PH is OK then just give Cal/Mag .

You are very welcome Rocket. I think Boost very very slightly lowers PH as most nute's do but not so much you need to add PH up or anything, it's a tiny amount of Boost per gallon.

If you want them to have shiny leaves - naturally - cure the Mag problem, some tap water has enough Cal in for certain strains but the rest need extra.
