answered grow question 5y ago
certainly check the ph to make sure but with the plant being so bushy it could be from not receiving enough light.

Hey guys, I've been growing for a few years now and something like this has never happened to me. Long story short, as soon as I move my plants from the veggie box into the flower box, they slowly start showing these symptoms (see pictures). The box worked fine for several grows

Look like Zinc and Calcium deficiency? Watering with 5.8/5.9pH, 2.06 EC (Runoff 5.8pH, 0.78 EC) Few leaves had small nutrient burn on the tips earlier this week. Nutrient burn appears to have tapered off.

What to do? → BF Runtz Auto - Day 42 - RH70, 80F in BioBizz Light Soil
On my last post, I was advised I have N tox, so I watered w/o BioGrow, just BioBloom and it's gotten much worse. The runoff EC was 1.5 (watered with 0.8, runoff pH was okay), so I’m guessing it's salt buildup. I plan to flush when this watering dries out—any thoughts?

First grow yellowing seedlings :( nute problem?
I seem to be following all the instructions on grow temperature range, light distance, and watering schedule(only watering hen the medium is drying); I've hardly used any nutes until day 22 as advised and I personally think this has caused me some issues although I may be wrong.

Noticed two leaves where the are damaged on the end, a different color, and a little dryer than the rest of the leaves.

Leaves keep turning brown and yellow
It all begann with what I thought was light burn. I then considered it CalMag deficiency. Giving it CalMag did not stop it. My current guess is too low pH due to strip inaccuracies, so I gave it around 8 today instead. What do you recon, why could it keep getting worse?

Bottom leaves yellowish - why? And can I top?
On both of my plants (C99 & S.A.D.) the bottom leaves are turning yellowish and I can't figure out why. I'd also like to top them this week (above 3rd node), but I'm hesitant because of the leaves. Any advice on what they may be missing, and whether I should wait with topping?
