Is this nutrient burn and should I be LST’ing or just let it veg freely?
HappyGrowMorestarted grow question 6y ago
Wondering if the yellow burn and brown burn are from nutrients or from lighting? Plants seems to be doing fine. Is the smaller of the two.
Left plant , I LSTd. Just wondered if it is too much?

Hello
So usually with nutrient burns you'll see tip burn, the claw, and then it progresses. I don't see tip burn, but i do see some clawed leaves. So maybe Do a small flush, and then come in with less nutrients...especially your nitrogen.
Your brown spots could be the beginning of a calcium need...personally i saw a huge improvement in my leaves when I actively use a calmag supplement.
As for your lst...it looks good. Just keep it slightly loose so no branches break and keep on tying.👍

Don't worry, slightly discolored spots on leaves are totally normal.
If you have the time to manage the LST I would definitely advise it :)

If this was yours, how would you proceed?Going into week 6. I just clipped the bad leaves that show in the picture and will be switching to the growing stage. I plan to do the 36 hours of darkness first. Already changed the water and it has the bloom solution instead of the grow solution. What would you do now?6y ago

Brown/yellowy Spots and StripesAlright, last night I did a reservoir change. I added a fraction more nutrients to the water (.25ml per gallon). I also topped the plants. This morning I woke up and there were these brown/yellow spots and stripes on the leaves. Any idea what it’s from?
Thanks!Week 3

lower leaves yellowing in 3 days?Over the past 3 days my 2nd plant lower leaves started to yellow. Both are fed the same amount and the same rates. I noticed the one that is yellowing the leaves are upwards and that is a good sign, but the lower leaves are yellowing too fast. I am unsure what could cause this.Week 2

Nutrient imbalance or healthy development?Are the colors of the leaves a sign of healthy development in the flowering stage, or a sign of nutrient deficiency/excess? After struggling a lot with the nutrition of this plant, I am not sure anymore whether I'm doing it right. Some of the leaves become yellow and fall off.4y ago

Yellow leaves - new growth dark green. As health improves, can I expect yellow leaves to turn green?Once a leaf starts showing signs of ill health (yellowing, etc), what is the point of no return? I have been working with this plant for a couple weeks and can't seem to get the yellow leaves to "heal" - new growth seems healthy to me however. Any thoughts?Week 8

Dried Leaves, Lockout or Stress. Week 5 of FlowerPlants suddenly wilting & looking crispy like they're dry, but pots are HEAVY! Suspecting root suffocation/rot ("wet feet"). Hard soil crust might be blocking oxygen. Roots are drowning & can't drink. It just happened yesterday since they look dried. Temp is 25C and Air 50%Leaves. Curl down
