Dying leaves?? - Brown spots lower leaves
MrGreenManstarted grow question 6y ago
The cotyledon leaves are dying on one of my plants, but these brown spots have spread across lower leaves that were damaged by the shell. Is this natural or is it a problem I’m unaware of? Not over-watering and pH is fine. Brown spots have appeared on tips of next leaves up now!

Yeah I thought that too, but I got these brown spots starting when pH was around 5.8 several days ago :(

If its hitting 6.2 then that can create spots. Cheers

Water can channel like a river with fabric planters, so you may have some dry areas you dont realize. Maybe when you water let it sit in its runoff water until it wicks up some. Ph is the only other thing, so your runoff ph comes out properly?

@gmslave yeah see I'm watering the soil thoroughly every time making sure there's at least 20-30% run off every time. I've just checked the soil carefully and there's no dry patches at all I've been very careful with that so not sure the watering is the issue??

Overwatering is always keeping your medium wet not putting enough water through to wet the entire medium. Dry spots in your root zone, brown spots in your leaves. Make sure when you water/feed you get the water through to all the roots. More water to runoff. Cheers

Minor damage to a few leaves found today - what is it?I am trying to determine the cause of damage to a few leaves that was observed this week. It may be two different problems. On a few leaves, I see brown spots which may have originally been white. On another 2 leaves, I see a burn hole through the leaves with brown edges.

[Athens Growers - tap water and salts]Hello fellow growers!
First timer here. Noticed salt residues on top of leafs (D19 pics).
They come from the mist maker who controls humidity levels
1) How to treat their leafs?
2) a tap water filter will improve the situation or salts are normal?
Peace! 👊
