Leaf discoloration cause
Maggie_de_Blockstarted grow question 4 years ago
What would be causing this? Haven't been feeding that much, possible that pH was a bit on the high side but not extreme. I did just defoliate quite a bit. It seems it's only the newer growth that's affected

Hey Mate,
First thought was too much, or too close to the lights.
But then recognized pH 7 🤔
Quite high for coco. Just for your info, pH calculation is based on log10... so pH7 is ten times more alkaline than pH6. That's a big range. So, I would say lights or pH...
Hope this helps a bit, good luck and happy trails for the rest of the way 🤞

Ah, yes, deficiencies caused by bad pH. You should be trying for 5.8 or so. Certain nutrients can't be absorbed at a neutral pH. Looks like you're having micronutrient deficiency as a result.

Fade or deficiency? Day 62Day 62, starting to see some slight discoloration in some of the older large fan leaves. I’m worried they are either burning or it is just a natural fade and I should let her ride

Low PH runoff, dealing with deficiency due to low soil PH. Added lime and PH went from 5.4 to 5.0 after watering. How to raise it safely and quickly?I have been dealing with a nutrient deficiency so added nutrients.It looked ok but then got a bit worse and I took some runoff readings which were 5.4 and then 5.0 the next week after adding lime to raise soil PH. How can I best raise the soil Ph being that I added lime already.2 years ago

Losing colors :'(I watered only 2L of water without nutrients this week (pot 30 L)
You can see it on the diary photos, the plans have lost their colors (yellow).
I wanted to know what exactly it was due to, because I read on the net a lack of nitrogen but I would like the expert opinion
Thanks !2 years ago
