Brown spreading spots

TheDoctorstarted grow question 5 years ago

Hi there! I found some strange brown spots on my tangerine dream, which are spreading. It looked like a burn, but the ,,burnt“ patches are not crunchy! Do you guys know what it could be?

Hey there, that looks like a "random" pH fluctuation , as i can see from the splotchiness of the spots and the burnt tips which is a sign of some kind of metal absorption problem probably due to a watering raising the pH temporarily . But if the leafs arent really drying out like if it was affected by nutrients maybe they're "variegated" leafs , but i've never seen it go like that . Hope this helps ! 🚀

This is caused when a ph fluctuates and also during sulphur deficiency. Try adjusting ph and give in some calcium magnisum and sulphur to correct this. Giving only sulphur wont help ; as it requires calcium and magnesium to synthesize it.

Heatlight stress?Can someone tell, are these brownish tips the sign of the heat stress or something else? And how bad is that for the plant's not so distant future? She grows indoors. Peak DLI was almost 60 but very briefly about one night. Now it's dimmed to 40dli/~600ppfd/ 20/4 schedule.

Maybe PH Lockout?Hello everyone, can you maybe help me? My Black Cherry Punch has some kind of problem. I suspect it’s a nutrient lockout caused by the pH value. I flushed it two days ago, and the drain had a PPM of 1000 and a pH of 7. The plants are at the beginning of the 2nd week of flowering.
