Browning Sugar Leaf Tips.
Sox21started grow question 6y ago
I've tried to help the plant, but I have NO IDEA what to do to stop these leaves from dying out and browning at the tips so fast. At first I thought it was just the lower leaves, but even some of the new sugar leaves are browning and occasionally dying completely off.

This is classic phosphorus deficiency. It happens especially if you have had cold nights in the mid 50s (F). Add some phosphorus rich ferts to fix it. The colors wont change but the spread should stop. You got this!

Hey guys had a quick question for you. I’m giving my plants about 500mls of water every 2-3 days and water when dry. I am currently growing in promix and I’m already seeing a few roots near the base of the plant. Is 500mls of water enough for a 1 gallon pot?Week 3

What should I do about the old leaves? likely ph imbalance and/or nute deficiency (Phosphorus -redding older stems + browning of dry leaves) and Nitrogen- slow light green new growth) - the issues seem to be resolved, but the leaves are flaking almost. mostly referring to plant 2Week 6
