Crispy leaves on some lower fan leaves (day after increasing light strength)

BiggBizzstarted grow question 5y ago

What do you think the crispy leaves were caused by? Too much light? Had the light at 200ish watts, (45%) and turned it up to 80% (also raised the light up 4 inches) a day ago.

Do you have a fan inside the grow space moving the air over the plants? Air movement is crucial in fighting off the intensity from your lights. Perhaps snag another fan if you already have one and getting the air really moving. It definitely looks like heat / light stress. 🤘😤

Have you consider nitrogen toxicity? Are you using growing in soil?

The plant that stays in the center is having some problems. Sugar leaves are curling down and have brown-yellow spots, they also seem very dry (see the photos) . Only this plant is having those problems, what could it be?

Is this some kind of deficiency or a genetics-thing?What do you think this light green comes from? From looking into several Special-Kush #1 grows, it appears it may could come from this strains genetics - although I'm absolutely not sure about that. For the sake of it i ordered a PH-pen - for now I'll stick to my PH stripes.

Dying plant / pale and twisting leaves in the middle of flowering (after heavy defoliation)Hi guys. My Dark Phoenix is in deep shit! It's dying and I don't know why. The ppm is rising (around 1800 now), ph is stable at around 5.7, humidity is 35%. The leaves are looking overall pale and some of them are twisting. I defoliated it quite heavily. Please help!

What’s going on with these little guys? Especially the coloring on day 13 for #3. They seem pretty stunted especially compared to the size of my other strain I started on the same day. These guys are getting full nutes like the others but look kinda yellow and the 3rd one blotchy

Sad Bruce Banner Why is my seedling so pale? It is cold in my grow space in the basement. She has been growing slowly and I figured the recent cold temps are the reason for that. She’s in the same soil mix as her dark green roommates. The pH meter shows a little on the acidic side.

Twisted Sisters There's been a bit of twisting in the leaves and I'm not sure why? pH was 6.1-6.3, 1.0 EC, feeding twice a day. Rolled back to once a day, new nutes with added cannazyme, new pH of 5.9 and EC slowly ramped to 1.4. Looking better but looking for any feedback. solo looks better
