Deficiency discoloration?
GrowBrosInc
started grow question 5y ago
I noticed some light de-coloration on the tips of one of the tops. Is it just because its new growth or do I have a deficiency? Thanks for the feed back.

Looks like the start of a cal mag deficiency or a ph problem makes sure those 2 are in line and you should be fine.

Not normal, maybe a magnesium deficit

That’s not normal, could be magnesium deficiency but I can’t be sure. How much Mg are you giving to the plant? It should be between 50 and 80 ppm

Name the deficiency.
Problem is mainly occurring on leaves near the top, but not the newest growth. Initially are less green, then start to yellow followed with brown spots. The oldest leaves near the bottom are seeing some effects, but as acute as the mid-upper leaves. Curl likely due to warm temp

I need some help guys to understand what is this? My plant leaves seem to be showing since today some yellow spots which I believe is an early cal mag defficiency sign (as I use tap water which is kind of soft apparently). Any help? Thanks in advance, my furst grow.

Light burn?
I noticed the tips of the top leaves are becoming paler, even slightly yellow. Could this be light stress/burn? My LEDs were approx. 30 cm from the canopy, now moved them up 15 cm.

Halb gelb, halb grün
Meine Pflanze zeigt aktuell leichten Kalium Mangel. Aber irgendwie nur auf eine Hälfte der Pflanze. Die andere Hälfte sieht gut gefüttert aus. Kann mir das jemand erklären? Also warum betrifft der Mangel nicht die komplette Pflanze?

New growth yellowing? Or am I paranoid
I'm really unsure if she's getting what she needs, New growth kind of shows a deficiency maybe? Using 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 Organic mix in the soil. I'm about to buy stuff to make a compost tea for them. She was healthy up to week 3, now showing this yellowing 🤷♂️ Thanks for help

Thoughts on my babies? Nute deficiency? Light burn? Over watering? pH off? What are your reflections on how they are looking now?

Yellowing leaves
Hi Growmies, im in week 7 of my flowering cycle, my leaves have started yellowing between the veins before turning brown and dying from the tip inwards. Is this a calcium deficiency? Or is it natural dying from the end of flowering cycle or something else? Please advise thanks ✌️

Many of my plant's fan leaves, especially lower down in the plant are turning yellow. Is this normal? I think I'm on my last couple of weeks for flowering, so I'm not sure if it's just part of the process towards the end. Should I remove them, or just leave them there?
