Nute Burn or Light Burn? Advice?

SpiderJar
SpiderJarstarted grow question 5 years ago
Growers have said my plants are burnt/curling due to nute burn, but I noticed that they are only particularly bad on the upper leaves and the sides of the plants that are more directly under the lamp. Is this light burn? What do I do? Ive been flushing but the burn continues.

Leaves. Edges burnt
Leaves. Curl down

Hello buddy.. Hope u are well.. As we av all been trying to resolve with u.. Yes its both.. But a combination of both is why ur middle plants wer effected mostly.. Obviously its a wee bit cooler on the outsides of tent wer air flow is easiest.. But leaves are still burning at tips.. Once problems arise with cannabis it csn b very difficult to resolve these by time of harvest unless in veg stages.. Flowering problems are harder to rectify because she's already on the path to finishing.. If possible on ur mxt grow just b more cautious with heat.. Aim ur fans at slightly upwards bringing fresh cooler air from ur vents up thru ur canopy and another fan on lights to cool them down.. Maybe try to invest in either a big outtake fan or add a slightly smaller intake fan to help keep cooler air directly into room n not thru just being vacuuming by outtake fan.. All other factors seem great n uve just been unlucky tbh.. It happens to us all.. All u gota do now is think howcan u get round this problem n stop it happening again.. Wen all leaf is trimmed off n she in curing she will look alot better.. If u can fix these problems ur yeilds will definitely increase as ur plants will b healthier.. Stay safe n gud luck in future gardens.. 👍🍀

I would defenetly start flushing without additional nutes and correct PH. If you have short distance to lamp, I would anyway increase a little. Will suffer less heat as your temperature is on upper end anyway. How is your watering procedure? Water them till the full pot is good wet and then wait till the pots are amost dry. Check with pot weight. Most nute burns are results from wrong PH or wrong watering.

perfectly normal at end of flowering... in many contexts. Has development been ~normal? you are 8 or 9 weeks into flower? Looks a bit glossy if i zoom in, but can't be certain in picture. If that's the case, it's a little burned. Senescence is making it look worse than it is. Ther's probably little you can do. Bright side is that if you irrigate with water only, it'll have plenty stored... how long is the flower period? that'll need to be considered. You don't want the entire canopy to fade before it is done.

It's that Ph Perfect stuff.. It is terrible for hydroponics and even worse for Dirt.. like your plant looks awful and it's very much a case of nutrients. Not blaming you or saying you bad... But Advanced Nutrients is hot Garbage. Very expensive and actually really bad for growing Cannabis...

Try and get your vpd in check as close as you can anyways. I'd check runoff EC and PH next water. I always like to know what is coming out not only what's going in. Good luck and keep posting 🤟

Yep it’s a nute burn..if the stress came from the lights the leafs curl inwards from the sides Yours curl downwards,also known as a nitrogen claw The damaged leafs don’t restore try to take a picture every day so you have some good comparison if your flush is working..sometimes when you flush your ec reading is good but if you water with plain water you sometimes notice there still are some nutrients still left in the grow medium even if it’s flushed Happy growing and stay safe ✌️🌱
