Deficiency of nitrogen
Lanchitastarted grow question 4 years ago
W.Gelato seems its taking too much nitrogen. Ive already made top dressing with worm castings and compost teas but still hungry. My question is: should i add some small dose of NPK mineral based (i have PLAGRON coco A+b) or it would do more bad than good since im doing organic

Hey Growmiga,
I agree to the deficiency in N.
Maybe you have some dry coffee ground around? Coffee would be a stable source of Nitro. I would prefer the coffee before I would take out the sledge hammers with Plagrons Coco A+B. But this is just my opinion.
Good luck and happy trails for the rest of the way 🤞
Servus,
OimRausch

PPM in week 2, nutrient lock?For plant 1 of my DWC, I had 410 PPM two days ago. My resevoir now is at 440. She is slightly yellow and a tad droopy. Is the rising of PPM by 30 an indication of nutrient lock? If its nute lock, does this require peroxide water to flush? How long do people flush? Thx in advanceWeek 2

Yellow leavesmy little GG2 is starting to lose many leaves (they turn yellow and fall even before drying) while the other is not having any problems (the only difference between the two is the "aggressiveness" used in the LST)
it could be due to the flushing done (but less than 5 days ago) 🤔5 years ago

Deficiency?Hey everybody,
I’ve never really dealt with deficiencies in autos as most of my experience is with growing photos outdoors.
Does this look like a magnesium deficiency? These just appeared over night on just two of my larger growing white widow autos.
Please let me know, thanks!Leaves. Edges burnt

Recurring Cal Mag issuesI’m already at the maximum recommended cal mag dose of 1ml/litre (with nutes at 1000ppm or E.C. 2.0) and I’m still facing issues.
It went away for a few days, but it’s now back.
Should increase the cal mag dose and cut back on the macro nutes to maintain 1000ppm?5 years ago

Nutrient Help possibly neededFor my first grow I have kept things fairly simple. I had issues with my soil PH which stopped nutrient uptake but seems to have now resolved that for the most part. Are there any other nutes that are recommended to help bud production or am I ok with what I have now? ThanksWeek 8

Why is this deficiency or toxicity spreading so fast!?Had a light case of what was believed to be calcium deficiency. Ph, EC and ppm all seemed normal for run off and I've halved my nutes but kept a higher dose of CalMag going. Didn't water them last night now it looks even worse, what should I do and will the end product be ruined?Week 9

Flushed plant for 36 hours out of fear of Nutrient lock. Not sure what to do now. Love to hear from the experienced folks!Plant has been slow to grow last 5 days. I thought I was over feeding (puffy dark green leaves, burnt tips) so the last 36 hours I have been feeding RO water and H2O2 to flush. Not sure what to do now as I am looking at her. Love and appreciation for any suggestions!Feeding. Deficiences

Bud growth in flushThis plant is due harvest very soon. I plan on harvesting my plant as soon as the weather conditions are better. Untill then I have her on a flush and either under the sun or the growlight. Lots and lots of potassium defficiencies. My question: Is the plant still producing bud?4 years ago

Is this definitely CalMag deficiency? Check diary for video.Before I go to over the top with the CalMag in a stupid attempt to nurse my plants back to health I just want to know for certain what it is.
The leaves are clawing, bronze spots everywhere but the smallest of the 3 doesn't seem to be suffering as much.. what is it?!Week 8
