This is my 1st ever grow so I am doing autos as I thought it would be easier and I've got into week5 of flower and it was going ok till I noticed browning on my sugar leafs on most bud sites and I'm in the process of letting my soil dry completely incase I watered a bit too much! Really don't know what it is thats caused it, looked online and most info was saying that it could be rot root or a lack of calcium, not sure what to do if it is calcium as I don't have any organic calcium products.

You got some Sulphur deficiency going on Before adding supplements to a plant's root zone, check the pH level of both the soil and/or the water solution (especially hydroponics) for plants. If the pH is high then it can be helpful to buy and carefully use a sulfuric acid-based fertilizer to both re-introduce sulfur, as well as bring down pH levels. If pH is within a normal growing range (5.5 to 7.0) then using Epsom salts would be a good source of sulfur for watering/hydroponics. In soil-based grows or outdoor grows the use of gypsum is good for sulfur introduction, but you may also use sulfate-based fertilizers such as ammonium sulfate or calcium sulfate, among others. If you have access, manure could be a great organic option as well.

Its whatever you're giving is having a clash. I think you at the stage. Where you need to just v feed her water. And let her eat herself free by soft flushing. As I doubt it's lack of with what and the dose of what you're giving her. I personally think. Its from 2 many feeds and she's locked herself out. As if you are feeding more than twice a week and not following up with water feeds. Even with coco. I follow up with a water feed every day after her feed at the start of the day. As what's left behind is residue as that has PH makers in her.. also from leftover feed the EC is to high. Only reason I can think off. How often are do you feed

Very happy as this was part of my 1st ever grow and ive managed to get to this stage, going to give it 36-48 hours of darkness before I cut it down to start drying. 😁 so relieved to get to this stage and now I'm already popping my next 2 seeds to plant think I caught the gardening bug and am now only look to get a bit better every run that I do

Learned alot in one grow, the one thats still going I'm trying something different with the light as I think the lights height might have been to high or the lights power not set high enough not 100% sure but I will find out with the 1 I still have growing
