Stalk and Petiole coloring
InstantT33started grow question 5y ago
The majority of my BB’s stalk and petioles are a bluish color. Toward the base of the stalk there’s an area that looks like it’s been skinned, or burnt. Any ideas?

ensure substrate pH is correct. possibly a trace element symptom, but those are rare in soil. (rust colored stalk)
Blueish petiolse possibly P-def. But, could also be related to pH
6.8-ish is best in soil. Slightly acidic is the goal. Do this first... then move on to possibly changing nutrients.. . if this is off.. give it a week to see how it reacts to change. Nosedive should not be ignored, but be patient. Takes time for changes to impact plant.
watering habits? stick to a wet-dry cycle. allow 1" to dry before irrigating or fertilizing.
Try not to leave standing water on the leaves. You'll grow mildew or worse.

Deficiency or lockoutIs this a simple N deficiency or a lockout? I gave her more N last feeding but nothing seems to have changed. still stunted and still bottom yellow leaves. Should I feed her a micro/bloom mix or flush her??! Her soil ph seems to be correct and ppm so idk if its a build up of salt

Calcium deficiency or overfed?Hi.
This is about my Apricot Auto which already suffered the yellow tips/edges. I took that as the result of heat/light stress.
Now she also developed discoloration and brown spots on some of the leaves. It looks like a Calcium deficiency to me, but I am quite uncertain.
Thanks!

Soil PH needs to be increased. What do I do?Hey everyone. I've noticed my plants are getting purple stems and not really growing as much as other plants. I checked the soil PH of them and the big plants have a PH of 6.1 and the small ones have a PH of 5.7. What's the best and easiest way to increase my soil PH to 6.5?

Big problem: burn tips and spot on LeavesHi dear friends!
Leaves from this VANILLA KUSH are crispy and they aren't "smooth." since last week I didn't gave any nutrients but only ph water.

Hopefully I get back lots of "Don't worry! it will be fine" replies!There is a brown resin coming from where the cotyledon leaves are/were.
Is this something I should be worried about?
It's no. 2, so she is the last one I should be worried about 🤨

Leaf colorWhat you think about it? Is she getting too much? I’m not giving her too much in my opinion. Her stems are purple and the leaves are yellowing a bit. Watering always with ph 6,3-6,5 growing in soil. I have a diary from her too. She’s like 47days old. Happy growing!

Purple stems on some seedlings?Why would the plants on that edge of the tray have purple stems? Nutrient deficiency? I noticed the one I checked with a purple stem had more roots showing from the rockwool cube than any others... think they're trying harder to get to the juice cause they got shorted?
