Check your runoff water for the ec level. Make sure your ph is also coming out at 6.3 for veg. This is how you diagnose your problems. Also fabric planters need more water as when they fill with roots they can become harder and harder to get the water/food to all the roots. Water channeling and leaving dry areas in your root zone. Dry roots can form brown spots on your plants, usually mid to near the top of the plant. Cheers

General healthAdvice please just on wether it's looking healthy. :)
I've been too careful with watering and some leaves turned yellow. Feeding 1 litre every other day but maybe that's too little? Stopped with the Biobiz fish and switch to growbloom. Leaves at the top look droopy still?4y ago

problems with clones!Friends, tell me what's wrong with the plant! I don't understand it's under-feeding or over-feeding! At first I thought it was a cal-mag deficiency, then I saw a purple stem and thought it was a phosphorus deficiency! Now I don't know what it is anymore! at the very beginning itLeaves.

Yellow and purple leavesI stopped feeding beginning of the week because I had yellow tops on one of my buds. I think it is causing yellow leaves. Does that sound correct? Also I am seeing sort of a purple colouring on some of the leaves. Is that okay?Leaves. Color - Yellow

Yellow bright new growthNew leaves on the Candy Kush plant #1 are bright green/yellow. This seems to have started when increased biogrow from 2ml/l to 3ml/l. Iron, zinc or sulphur deficiency? Only give calmag on next feed? Might have measured pH before adding nutrients so Faber wrong pH?Week 6

Starting to fade? Or nutrient deficiency?One of my plants has several fan leaves that are turning yellow/purple, and I can't tell if it's low on N or starting to fade. The plants are 2 days into week 5 of flower with a 9-10 week flower period, so it seems a little early for it to be turning colors like this.9mo ago
