Phosphorus deficiency???
TopDrippinPimpstarted grow question 4 years ago
Im having a deficiency....i dont think its cal mag issue. Plants are in mid flower and taking in large amounts of nutrients and water. They are also growing pretty fast. Im leaning towards phosphorus deficiency but thought i would ask the fine people of grow diaries!

You are indeed correct!! this is a Phosphorous (P) deficiency which is normal during the flowering stage *This doesn't mean you can ignore it*. Try increasing the flowering fertilizer (usually contains PK) by around 20-30% and see if it makes any difference, if it does help but not completely then increase it a bit more. If nothing changes then check the pH levels of your irrigation solution if its acidic (low), ideally you'd want 6.0-6.5 when growing in soil.
Other than the deficiency grow looks amazing! keep it up!
Happy growing :)

Should I remove foliage affected by deficiency, or just let it ride?Autoflower started showing sign of deficiency at week 8. Assuming CalMag, as I filter my water and affected area is new growth at top of plant (see pic).
1) Can someone confirm CalMag deficiency or something else?
2) Should I remove affected leaves or leave them be?
Thanks

MottlingFrom the moment the first leaves started growing they've had this weird mottling. Only environmental prob is my temps occasionally hit 84f, mostly it's around 78f. Every leaf grows in like this. I had 1 other plant do this, turned out mostly male herm from a fem seed.

Nutrient issueWondering if anyone knows what deficiency or excess this could be? Thinking phosphorus deficiency and if so, should we top the main kola here? Or will it fix itself if we fix the nutrient issue? Any advice or entail would be appreciated.
Leaves are not dry, soft to touch.

Help with weird deficiencyBCN is starting to show some form of deficiency. Given that it's in its 9th week, we are debating whether we should finish with a flush and harvest or try to fix this. Can someone please give their advice and opinion. Have attached a picture of the trichomes, not perfect though.

Leaf problem, insects ?Plant is approx 60 days old.
I have found and washed off what look like insect eggs under some of the leaves but have not seen any webs or moving creatures.
Is it insect damage or could it be fungus.
I have 2nd plant that seems unaffected.
Mainly lower older leaves affected.
