possible deficiency?

Keytonstarted grow question 4 years ago

Please help. Noticed some yellow leaves, some misshaped, fallen off. Should I water to correct deficiency or wait for normal watering cycle? I watered 24hr ago but starved them for 4 days prior thinking i had fungus gnats. Temp dropped to 15c usually 25. Thanks

Check your pH and EC in and out. If those are good, then keep doing what you're doing. You said you starved them, they could be showing a deficiency that you already fixed by feeding them again.

I’ve been using dry nut from Root Organics, I’m curious if I still need to water to run off since I’m in coco. I want to make sure my dry nut don’t get flushed out. Is dry nuts optimal for coco? Do i water the same as others?

Any idea on what nutrient deficiency I'm having? plants are slowing starting to yellow at the tips of the older leaves as well as small yellowish/brownish spots. I think its either potassium or nitrogen. also whats the easiest way to fix? would manure and fertilizer work?

I have uploaded a few more pictures - getting worries as the yellowing is continuing. Any ideas? pH was 5.6 on Saturday when I first mixed the nutes), and then with the air stone has come up to 6.5 or so. I've added a small amount of pH down to temper this back down.

The lower leaves of some plants are yellow, then die. I'm very light with nutrients, there is no bugs into the grow room, what can it be ? pH between 6 and 7, lower it with few drops of lemon juice but bought a 3aciddown bottle. And are the buds supposed to be that big already ?

1/3 plants has leaves that are almost pointing straight up. I have read two opposing things. One being that the plant is actually “happy” soaking in the sun and directing it to the bud sites. The other being some sort of deficiency- either calcium or magnesium? Any thoughts?

Been feeding 10-10-2 bat guano (super grow) and now some 1-9-1 (super bloom) for 3 weeks, still getting brown dead spots on older fan leaves. Maybe still a phosphorous deficiency and plant taking awhile to intake the nutrients?
