Brown spots on leaves
Kenderbetyar
started grow question 4 years ago
I've noticed a few brown spots on the main cola's leaves. The rest of the leaves are looking normal. What could cause that?

Sorry it may be Calcium and or Magnesium. Supplement with CalMag 1 ml per litre of water add before base Nutrients

Calcium deficiency use calcium magnesium. Could be boron but that usually has twisted leaves and starts at the tips and is rare

Leaves keep turning brown and yellow
It all begann with what I thought was light burn. I then considered it CalMag deficiency. Giving it CalMag did not stop it. My current guess is too low pH due to strip inaccuracies, so I gave it around 8 today instead. What do you recon, why could it keep getting worse?

Black tips and spots on the leaves
I'm having problems with the leaves. I estimate that the plant has about two or three weeks left to live, and I don't want to have issues now. Some tips are darkening, and spots are appearing on the leaves

Braune Flecken an den Blättern
Hallo zusammen, Ich habe seit ein paar Tagen diese braunen Flecken auf den alten Blättern meiner Pflänzchen. Die Wochen zuvor habe ich gedüngt, allerdings nur mit 1 ml BioGrow, 1 ml BioBloom & 2 ml CalMag von BioBizz — denke eher es ist ein Mangel. Vielen Dank für eure tips!

New grower with questions about burnt tips, browning/scrunching leaves and some pale/yellow spots!
I noticed Quick One had issues with burnt tips and discoloration by the end of week 1 and 2, what could've been the issue? Apple Fritter is looking sick, brown spots, what is that? Easy Bud and Quick on have slight yellow/paled spots on their leaves, only 1-2, is that normal?

I wanted to ask if you think this plant has mold or if it's just a major deficiency due to a blockage. I have an indoor plant next door with some plants growing with dark spots, it's in my previous question. Sorry for giving more information, I don't know what would help.

Verfärbte Blätter

First time DWC, day 70, 3 weeks in flower. Nasty rusty spots appear on lower leaves. Is this CalMag or else? Please help understand and fix, thank you :)
I'm using TA Tripart, current EC is 1.6 - ph 5.5-6.5. Everything was smooth until week 10. Two weeks ago I started adding Plagron Power Buds and Green Sensation. Yesterday added CalMag to see if it helps, but it doesnt seem to... She drinks a lot, ph mostly goes down, EC static

Nitrogen Deficiency or Nutrient Lockout?
My plants are showing red / purple stems as well as some rust spots in some of the older leaves. Nitrogen deficiency? Or lockout due to too much fertilizer?
