Phosphorus deficiency? Week 5 of flowering
microgrowshowstarted grow question 4 years ago
Is this a phosphorus deficiency? I originally saw orange and brown spots form on other leaves, but now I'm seeing blackish/purple spots. I've been having soil pH issues with this one, so may need a proper flush. Temps have also been low the past few days (60-65 but as low as 56)

This could easily be a P deficiency, getting to mid flower P demand increases, not enough will cause purple petioles and stems, dark green older leaves, necrotic spots with leaves finally twisting, fading and falling off. P deficiency will also cause calcium problems due to how the 2 interact in the plant. I'd flush her good, and give her a feeding with some added P (at the proper ph of course), and see if the symptoms stop spreading. Happy growing.

Hello microgrowshow,
Brown spots usually tells that it is a magnesium deficiency. It could also be a Potassium overdose. Add some cal-mag and check the runoff with a nutrient ppm meter.
Good luck with your project, I wish you all the best! 👽

Leaf issues. Lockout? Need to Flush??Leaf issues started showing up in 2 of 3 plants, progressing fast.
Soil runoff tests have been v. high (2000ppm+) so we're assuming it's a lockout issue.
We watered 1 day ago, with 200ppm solution so pots are still very wet.
Better to let them dry out a bit or flush right away?

Yellowing Too Fast Or Natural?I'm roughly 2-3 weeks into flower. Over the last week, I've noticed more yellow leaves than normal. Majority are bigger, older fan leaves but some are moving up the plants. New growths are a nice green and buds look healthy. Am I under feeding or overreacting?

Drainage issueI'm not quite sure why this cup doesn't absorb its waterings when the other two solo cups are getting Watered every day. All 3 cups have no drainage. They are all grown in the same conditions.
My first instinct is lack of drainage, do I need to make some holes, bottom or side?

Looking for clarification on the Flush time required for a RDWC grow? I have read this can be as little as 2 days of just plain water but should this also include CalMag if I am RO water? I assume the standard root rot treatment continues? i.e. OxyPlus, HydroGuard, Phytoff?Thanks4 years ago

Growth looks like it's stopped, is it time to flush?2 of my plants look like they've stopped growing now and the calcium deficiency looks worse and worse.. should I just flush then with water for a couple of week and be done with them?
The late bloomer looks like it's got ages still, definitely not what I'd hoped for being autos
