White leaf tips and spots? Help :(
JustARegularEveryDayNormalMFstarted grow question 4 years ago
Im using spring water from a mountain near by,but it is pretty acid (~4.8 ph).
Could that be the reason my plants have white tips and a spot on the leaf? Or could it be the height of the light?
I will raise the ph to about 5.5-6.2 ,so hope for better results.
Thank you :)

You might've answered your own question...only thing you can do is try to raise the pH of your water, also your soil looks a little too moist👊👌

Yeah, you answered it yourself. PH UP is gonna help you with that acidic water.

Yellowing too soon?What do you think about the yellowing on the 6th week? The npk of the soil i use is 9-2-2. But its the king of yellowing when she needs more N. No dark spots, no burnt tips. This would be normal maybe on the 8/9 week i think.Week 6

Deficiency of nitrogenW.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 organicWeek 4

Yellowing of top fan leavesWhat is causing yellowing of the top fan leaves?
Started to happen to a plant that I broke by accident during LST. However around the same time I upped to 2ml/l and moved the light a little closer. My ph has also been high (fine now). No idea which one could be the culprit5 years ago
