BongRipstarted grow question 5y ago
My plants are in day 7 and I noticed some problems with it. A new set of leaves is coming out yellow in one of my plants and also I am seeing some spots on 2 other plants. They are under 200cfl with the distance of 6 inches. Temperature goes up to 85'F sometimes. Help out pls!

cfl should get rather hot, even if only 200w. So I'd raise the lamp some more if I were you.
- Looking at your diary, you might be watering a bit too often.. Which can result in it not taking nutrients from the soil and give a lighter colour.. Let it go a bit longer in a large pot like that, before watering. It'll also help the seedling to spread roots further down, as it searches for more water.

I think that this is normal. I had the same thing happen because I didn’t feed them or pre amend my medium. fed some nutes(Dry organic) and cal mag. 💥 good to go. I’d definitely wait before doing that though as last resort because they may be doing perfectly fine and are very fragile at this stage. (Idk what u r feeding, etc.) Cheers and good luck! 🌱🎄✌️

Just keep watching it and watch for wilting... otherwise it looks fine for 7 days old, the neon to light green is normal for new rapid growth 👊👌

I'm on Day 11 from seed in Coco/perlite using dry Amendments. My girls are yellowing from centre out and have been stuned a few days now. I'm under the assumption it's over-watering. I've air rated, dropped humidity to 45-50%RH.
Am I on the right path?Week 1

Nutrient deficiencyWhat kind of deficiency these leaves are showing? Can this be lack of nitrogen? I am using a lower amount of BioBizz Grow these days (1ml/L), passing to BioBizz Bloom and Top Max as they are in the middle of the flowering stage. In case, should I integrate with more BioBizz Grow?Week 6

The most common yellow leave will be found on the terminal stage of flower because plant will power up for flower produce rather leave grown. Leaves are most of the time a reservoir of H2O nutrients and minerals.
Yellow leaves can apear on you plant at some point of grow?Week 10

Dead spots on leavesI've been struggling with same problem from beginning of grow, leaves having these dry yellow/white spots. The first week I used too high pH which later I replaced by rainwater - new leaves were healthy, but last night I left tent at 70% RH. Somehow it returned - details in diary6y ago

I am using 2x 1000w philzon LEDs in a 3.5'x3.5' Tent and I had them at 10/10 brightness. I just reduced to 8/10. Thanks in advanceLeaves. Color - Yellow

(Mimosa auto in coco) Yellowing tips on new growthThe top of the plant (new growth) is showing some unhealthy signs.
The tips of the leaves are yellow and there are lighter green stripes on the leaves themselves.
I googled and the signs match to a number of deficiencies, but i lack the experience to diagnose correctly. Plz help3y ago

Day 20 Flower. Leaves curlingLeaves curled over 12 hour light cycle. Ph 6.0. Ppm 950.
I have been battling ph drop for a week. Lowered Ppm to 900 from 1100. Seems to have stabilized the ph and now the leaves are doing this.
I’m looking to do the day 21 strip of most leaves tomorrow. Should I be concerned?Leaves. Curl up
