Looks pretty normal for flower stage, not sure about seed genetics. Check the pH of the soil and stop feeding nutes if you are. Give a flush for the plants sake and have a pH around 6 👍👊

Problem with plants in the 3rd week of vegetation.
I'm posting again because I accidentally marked it as resolved. I was using BioBizz CalMag from the beginning, but when I switched to Advanced Nutrients, I stopped because Ph Perfect Sensi Coco Grow A and B already contain CalMag.

Listless plant
What would cause this specific plant to look so droopy and sad? Had to cut out some totally dead growth. I’m at week 7, is it too late to help it?

Black discolouration on leaves
Okay so the problems with the black spots continue only on one plant. I tried reducing nitrogen and increased calmag to 4ml/g. I defoliated the affected leaves and sprayed with baking soda mix. 3 days later they're appearing again. If I don't get this fixed soon im gonna lose her

Black spots spreading // Need your help!
Anyone got a clue what this dark spots could be? It started in a corner of the tent with 1 plant a few weeks ago and now it has spread to another. I suspect pH issues and a nutrient lockout bc of that. Not sure if its the same issue though..Could be an infection as well...

Hello, i have a weird dark spot on my seedlings idk what it is and if i should be worried. I know on these genetics the leaves can turn dark purple but I don't think it would be happening this early. I fed them nutes for the first time yesterday and today this dark spot appeared.

Flower development
I'm starting my week 3 of flower I'm starting to notice inside of my canopy some of my leaves in Bud sites are getting very wilted and going black could this be the start of a mold or is this a natural thing should I remove anything that looks like this ? Also my humidity is 70

Please see the 2 photos marked in the diary. Is this a classic PK burn? Did a feed with no MegaCrop, no cal-mag, just PK boost at diluted dosage. The coppering and yellowing has come sudden. Leaves are crispy where burnt. I hear its easy to burn with PK boost. Did I do that?

LEAFS DYING
The edges of the leaves are dry and black. Every single point of the leaf is burnt(black) or yellow...even some edges on the leafs of the coal are burnt. I guess it’s overfert...but I just flushed. Is it Ph? I haven’t checked in awhile. Is it they ready to be cut down?
