According to your log your pH is a bit high.. this can cause a lockout of iron which it looks like what its doing.. shoot between 6.0 and 6.5 if possible! Cheers and happy growing!

Dry spots on Leaves
After repotting, my Serious 6 plants developed dry spots on the bottom leaves. What could be the issue here? Transferred to 15L Autopots with recycled substrate from my last grow (exchanged top layer)

Possible deficiency/humidity/pH problem
I've been struggling with same problem from beginning of grow - leaves having these dry yellow/white spots. The first week I used too high pH which later I replaced by rainwater - new leaves were healthy, but last night I left tent at 70% RH. Somehow it returned - still rainwater

The leaves started to turn yellow from the inside out. I don't know if it's a disability or an overdose. I'm using Biobizz. Someone solve? Is it in flowering with about 5 weeks to harvest, is it worth stirring or better leaving it like this?

Any ideas to what might be causing these leaves to yellow/die? Only reasons I can think of are nutrient lockout, having the lights too close (although I've heard with CFLs theres pretty much no such thing as too close) or possible having the heater running, or constant fan air

Leaves turning yellow
So my royal jack automatic started getting some yellow leaves on the bottom and they started going up. She is on the 6th week. Should I be worried or is it just normal cannibalizing?

Magnesium or Nutrient Burn or?
Magnesium deficiency, or nutrient burn or??? Only on the lower leaves so far, curling down was existing genetics - but the burnt tips are new and some have even curled up now. Probably 5+ weeks left so too early for natural dying off?

Leaves bright green
So I have ruled out the fact that this is not a ph problem, have been properly watering at a consistent ph of 6.5, tested the run off today and it's at a pH of 6.4, also there is purple stems and the main stock has purple running through it as well?!?! Is this lack of pk? ca/mg?

Calcium deficiency or overfed?
Hi. This is about my Apricot Auto which already suffered the yellow tips/edges. I took that as the result of heat/light stress. Now she also developed discoloration and brown spots on some of the leaves. It looks like a Calcium deficiency to me, but I am quite uncertain. Thanks!

We've had some really warm weather the past few days. This morning, just before the lights switched off, i saw it was 31.1 degrees C in the grow tent. Are the yellowing leaves a concern? The yellowest leaves are really brittle. I don't believe they're under-waterd.

1 plant going bright green
Not sure why the one plant is going bright green, would this be nutrient lockout or am I just under feeding the plant? I've been giving all 4 the same amount so I'm not sure as to why only the one is doing this
