Day 39
Not much news. A few single leaves here and there show a little Mag deficiency. Think this is due to low EC (and therefore to high water throughput) as I mixed last watering with more distilled water and less mineral water. So I think watering with tap/mineral water 50/50 tomorrow and slowing down a little will be right.

The deficiency on some leaves has worsened the last days. I watered them yesterday with 50% BioFlores (mostlý mineral water, some distilled added) until each had a runoff of roughly 250ml, which was roughly 3000ml for each plant. The runoff had a pH between 5.8 and 6.1. I think the leaves look a little healthier today than yesterday.
Generally the plants look still good, but are surely set back quite a bit. I hope the leaves improve further in the next days.
Maybe someone can hint me what went wrong. I gues they sucked the nutrients out of the pots more than I expected and were therefore simply out of nutes.
Some of the affected leaves:

Little bit lazy with updates, as I was unmotivated due to the leaves that have taken damage and look ugly. However, the deficiency has settled, no further leves have withered, and generally the plants still look nice. First brown pistils have appeared, but still plenty new pistil production.

The plants are still quite productive and some fox-tailing has started the last couple days, which I don't mind.
The bigger leaves are slowly coloring up, and trichomes grow even on the brow spots of the damaged leaves, which I thought were dead (can maybe seen on some of the closeups).
Also in the last couple of days they started with a very pleasant soft and fruity smell with a hint of sweetness.
I'm quite happy with them again.

Nice plants.
Im growing black cream now also, I noticed some leafs coming out from the cotyledons today, so it looks as theres suddenly one more node on my plant. I also had a seed that gave me two plants and one of the plants has 3 side branches per node. Seems to be some funky stuff going on with this strain.
