It means a slight excess of p and k, nothing much tow worry about, just don't up the flower nutes quite yet and make sure you use just plain water every now n then🌱👍

Bei der Pflanze sterben die Blätter
Was kann die Ursache sein? Wir haben EC und PH wert kontrolliert und alles ist in Ordnung. Außer das mit dem Sand haben wir nichts anderst gemacht. Hat jemand eine Idee? Es hat so in der Woche 6 angefangen und wird schlimmer

Is this sight yellowing normal or cause for light concern? No nutrients
Does it look like the new leaves on my 7 day pictures are slightly yellow? Or is that relatively normal with new growth? 20% perlite, 30% coco, 50% organic potting mix. Been really light handed on the water. waiting until soil is completely dry before watering more (1-2 days)

Strange yellow patches
This is a new one for me, sont think I've ever seen discolouration like this before. My first thought was having left some nute solution on her leaves after feeding but pretty sure I've ruled that out and more leaves have begun to show the same discoloring. Any advice appreciated

Yellow spots on leaves
Am I correct in assuming that the spots on leaves were probably caused by ph fluctuation? If so, is there anything I can do besides flushing with proper ph water?
