Discoloration and burnt edges on leaves

Bimbadabangstarted grow question 4 years ago

Can someone please help me diagnose this problem? At first I thought it was root dry spots from the drip watering system but it’s gotten worse. The bottom leaves are yellowing and the edges are burnt with a hole in one of the leaves. Anything helps, thanks!

Heya! That does not look like nute burn to me, looks like a magnesium deficiency. Early stages are represented by yellowing then browning into 'rust' like spots. (https://www.growweedeasy.com/cannabis-plant-problems/magnesium-deficiency) Make sure your pH is 5.5-6 for coco/hydro or 6-7 for soil. If you know your pH is good, add a little calmag next watering. Another option is to use epsom salts in your water. Cheers and goodluck!

you my friend have a nutrients burn. I recently went through that, what I did was gave them no feed, just ph water (6.0) and they bounced back within a week after the next feed. I hope my advice was helpful my fellow grower.

What is she telling me?Anyone know what she’s going through? Four weeks old, using tap water with hydroguard and GH FloraTrio nutrients. PH seems to go up from around 5.6 to 6.1 in a matter of hours. Ppm=635 EC=1.2 right now. Been going very easy on nutes, about half strength still. Could that be it?

Grey leaf tips Booth plants are showing some kinds of burn and I am not sure if it is nutrient burn or light burn or if there is something missing. Looks a bit like MG deficite but shouldn't the plant take that from the soil in that state and age?

Too much light or PH imbalance?I dont know, something strange about the color, the spots on the leaves maybe? suggestions accepted. Maybe I need to add a fan ASAP, or let more air into the tent? Dimmer is sset to 20% 25% , maybe I should give more light? or maybe less?

One plant (the one on the right) is going yellow, with brown mottling on the leaves. Both plants have been treated exactly the same. I’m giving the plant some calmag and extra nutrition after flushing it (which had no effect). Any ideas to save this plant? Worried…

Seedling Light-burn or Toxicity Hi growers! Is this Light Burn, or nutrient toxicity from nutrient dense soil? 2 Mars Hydro TS600 lights at 27" from seedling. PH 6.3 misting soil - RH is 75-80%. - Temp is 77F No light meter, so I estimate PPFD is in acceptable range despite using 2 lights in 2x2 tent.
