Nutrient burn and what else?
whoawhoastarted grow question 5 years ago
RQS Northern Light Auto, 8 week-old (3 weeks flowering), Coco+Perlite (70/30), GHE FloraSeries + Cal-Mag, TS1000 LED 150W, 15L pots. Lady suffered from nute burn last week, but I think I managed it by dropping EC to 1~1.2. Now there are brown spots on upper leaves, suggestions?

@Fruitgrower @Nobody01 I thought about it too, but I only see those spots on upper leaves! Ca deficiencies should start from bottom, right?

It's because of your nute burn issue it's locking out access to calcium and magnesium. 🌱👍Give her flush and look at reducing your feed.

Based on recent behaviour, it could be a Ca deficiency. (between Ca and Mg, it doesn't look like Mg... a K-def is less likely, but would have spots like tha tlower on plant with some fading and burnt tips.)

Not Nutrient BurnWell I'm stumped...ppm 600, pH 5.9...it certainly looks like nutrient burn but it can't be, tips yellow then darken and curl and get crispy. 3 days between pics in question and in diary. My only guess is that I upgraded from knockoff 100W LED to Mars Hydro 150W. Any ideas?2 years ago

Is it nutrient burn?Week 9 I noticed orange/brown spots on leaves and tips turning yellow. Is it because nutrient burn? Was feeding them with all the Biobizz nutrients by their schedule. Second day, 10 week I flushed the plant. Should I continue flushing 3 weeks before harvest?Leaves. Tips - Burnt

Slow flower development?Can you tell me if I'm overthinking the rate at which the buds are developing? Day 28 of flower but it looks like week 2. Strain may be a longer flowering strain and it's my first time growing this cultivar. This has been the healthiest plant I've grown so far, no signs of stressBuds. Not fattening

Forbidden runtz excess or deficiency problems autoflowerBAD WEEK! need some help here guys..
Brown / rust spots started to appear on the tips and slowly started yellowing leaves.
Im following the master advanced nutrients chart and watering 2 times a week.
Last week feed was
20 litres R/O water
80ml bloom A
80ml bloom B
40ml of every additive on the chart
20ml cal meg
30ml phup
PH adjusted 6.50
After i started noticing the brown spots / leaves curlin up and stunted growth i skipped a feed and flushed with plain R/O water used 30 litres for 4 auto plants.
Yesterday i watered again but cut the nutes in half.
20 litres R/O water
40ml bloom A
40ml bloom B
20ml of every additive on the chart
20ml cal meg
20ml phup
PH adjusted 6.50
I still don't know what the problem is, if it is a excess of something or a deficiency..Looks like a cal meg deficiency but ive beed using cal meg since the beginning. Maybe i have excess nutes in the soil and resulted in nutrients lockout of cal meg or something else?
since i water twice weekly should i water with nutes always ? The master advanced nutrients chart still sometimes confuses me.
Please any help will be appreciatedWeek 8
