Nutrient imbalance

Green2Goldstarted grow question 5 years ago

Leaves burning from tips to the older leaves. Transplantei em outro solo com ec 0.7 Carolina soil que aqui no Brasil é considerado bom. As folhas continuam queimando. Eu regulo meu ph toda rega, não uso muito fertilizante. Me parece deficiência de magnésio segundo material online

Unless your water EC is below 0.4 or 0.5 EC then it's almost impossible to get mg deficiency. You've been having an ongoing overfeeding problem. With those pots you do not need any additional nutes for quite some time. Stop feeding, give it plain water and let them recover, add nutes once the plant depletes the nutes in the soil, you will notice.

Nitrogen toxicity and tip burn Smallest plant (1st pic) was showing nitrogen toxicity and I just fed distilled water at 6.3ph to try and help. Bigger plants had some tip burn and curling up. Thought this would help them. Any tips on how you would treat this please?

Is this nutrient burn?I'm pretty sure this is nutrient burn. Using hot soil with a bit of extra worm castings on the top layer. The pH was also too high (approximately 8) but has since been corrected (now 6). Next layer on top came in nice and healthy. Can someone confirm there's nothing to do here?

Rust/dead spots This girl, was overall stressed out from the beginning. Lights, overwatering, ph , wind burn, you name it. Either way all of the plants have long recovered. Still stunted tho. Plants have only received one 1/4 dose of veg nutes. Are the spots from lack of P and K?
