indianqueensstarted grow question 5y ago
After 2/3 weeks of flowering the leaves on one of my plants are turning brown/black on the edges. Should I be worried, how can I fix?

Hi!
There is definitely something wrong there but I have not seen this before.
Is the soil too wet/soggy? Do you know the pH lf the soil?

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

Does she need more calmag?

Brown spots watering in coco multiple times a daySeeing brown spots on the leaves. Assuming it's a calcium deficiency. Added another ml/gal of Cal-Mag for the daily feeding. Besides that, what else could it be? Also, at what point do you water plants in coco twice a day?Week 7

Brown Rusty DotsWhat are these brown dots on my plants? They are only on one of the plants, they have gotten a spray with Dr. Zymes Eliminator and had no effect, also did a mL of Cal Mag in its last water with no effect and getting worse. I’m not sure what this is and I can’t get it to go away!Leaves. Color - Dark-brown

Brown spots and yellowing pictured above. My best guess is a Cal/Mag deficiency. Was feeding Botanicare Cal-Mag Plus at 1 ml/l up until ~2 weeks ago (friend has been watering while I was out of town). Before I feed her, any advice on what the problem is and how to correct it?6y ago
