burnt leaves
notyourneighborstarted grow question 5y ago
my green gelato auto got a few burns, I changed my grow to a new tent and because of lack of airflow she got this burns, problem is solved and she looks well after that. I always heard that burn leaves should be cut off, but in this stage she is really young, when should I cut?

General rule of thumb for me is if over 50% of the leaf is dead/dying, i'll take the entire leaf. There is nothing stopping you from just cutting off the dead parts. I'd personally let it grow out a few more internodes before I trimmed anything.

thanks! That was my intuition, let her become more robust and then cut the dead parts and hopefully she won't get stunt

Potassium and Calcium deficiency?Both plants are autos on day 49 after sprouting.
Plants didn't get any fertilizer during veg. I noticed deficiencies about 2 weeks ago, and added BioBizz Bio-Bloom, Top-Max and CalMag to next waterings.
Planning to alternate water and feeding for the rest of the grow.

Brown burnt tips on smallest leavesToday I noticed that smallest leaves are getting brown tips. Yesterday I sprayed her with diy insecticide against thrips(soap, alcohol and h2o2). Could it be light burn or nutrient burn? She grows in bio bizz all mix which is heavy fertilized, and gets no extra nutrients.Week 3

Leave tips brighteningHi, I noticed the tips of leaves on younger parts are turning brighter, one tip already turned brownish. Is it because of nutrient burn?
Issue can be seen in the video in my diary "26 Day - 22.1.2023":
