Browning of leaves, heat burn or pests?
local____hoststarted grow question 4 years ago
Plants are showing signs of browning, and other weirds leaf markings, kind of grey-ish not too pronounced. It's been very hot and sunny here for 5 days, temps reaching above 37°. I left them in the sun during this period, is it heat stress? Otherwise growing nicely.

Try some Magnesium Sulphate(Epsom Salt), helps for Photosynthesis also, but will prevent your leaves from thinning up or yellowing. You might also be having a little nutrient burn(maybe). But Epsom Salt is a perfect remedy for yellowing (1 teaspoon per 3 litres. Or get an NPK solution that has more Nitrogen. But adhere to instructions for optimum results.
I hope this helps.
Good luck.

Strange Twisting LeavesI have a plant that's just over 3 weeks old, and since the first week or so, I noticed it has some leaves that grow with a "kink" or "twist." They all seem to have a small discolored spot on the edge of the leaf that eventually becomes the corner of the kink/twistLeaves. Edges burnt

A deficiency, a toxicity and a toxic-deficiency???Here's what I make of it (and PLEASE correct me where I am wrong!) :
The tips yellowing indicates, a nitrogen burn.
The burnt brown tip indicates, nitrogen burned to long 😂
The black spots indicate, a P or K issue (as the leaves are otherwise healthy green in color)18 days ago

Brown/yellow/purple leaves inThis started out as brown spots on big fan leaves and has turned into what you see on the pictures. I've been ignoring the discoloration until I was greeted by some wilted, dead leaves on plant #2 today.
I'm not worried at this point, just really want to know what's happening2 months ago

help in Hydro RDWC/DWCHello, my plants are now about 4 weeks old. The leaves droop and curl. The spots on the leaves are increasing. Is the PPM value too high? It's 1000ppm tds
They grow in an RDWC system with top feed. The top feed is permanently switched on. Can that lead to problems?Leaves. Curl down

today watered with PH 6.6 runoff was 6.1
Can the brown spots come from the wrong PH ?

Dark purple areas on leaves — genes or environment/feeding problem?What the heck is this? Is it just purple genes or a stress/deficiency or a combination of multiple factors?
I have checked three visual cannabis plant health guides, and did not find a single issue which looks like this. Maybe a combination of 2 factors, but I'm not convinced 😐2 months ago
