OrganicCannabisConnoisseur
started grow question 5y ago
Why is my Ice Wreck Seedling browning? It is 2 feet from the light, in the same tent as 6 other plants and is the only one looking this way. 6.5 pH, planted in super soil, watered when soil is dry.

Bottom Leaves only looking worse for wear
Hi, does anyone know what's causing some of my very lowest leaves to become like this? They are still attached to the plant but fall off really easily and look like they've had the life sucked out of them. The rest of the plant looks relatively fine.

Rusty spots mid-top of plants. A couple on each plant. Thoughts?
(Check diary for more details) Thinking calcium deficiency, also maybe magnesium deficiency on a few low yellowed leaves. Thinking it could be nutrient lockout? Feeding them 6.25 pH always. Gonna try 7.0 once and 6.5 for awhile. Thoughts anyone? Im still fairly new and learning

Calcium / PH issues? Did I take the correct steps?
Am I on the right track to remedy my plant's issues? Seems like calcium deficiency to me. Soil test comes in at just under 6.5, my reservoir water going in is 7.3ph, in case its actually a lack of calcium and not the PH i've top dressed gypsum (and epsom salts).

Too much light or other deficiency
Too much light or some other deficiency? I’ve been having some issues with yellowing leaves and some other issues with browning and wilting/curling which I thought was initially nutrient lock but what I noticed is all four plants were not stunted and continued to grow normally.

Brown rust spots on oldest leaves
Brown rust spots on oldest biggest leaves with curling inward - the rest of the flower is fine, just some occasional small yellow spots. No sign of pests. Maintaining pH ~6.5 but have soft water. Suspect cal/mag deficiency or nitrogen toxicity. Thoughts?

Browning leaves
My leaves are showing some brown spots 5 days post transplant. I also increased my light from 30% intensity to 80% intensity. I have them 18” away currently. Am I showing signs of light burn? I have since turned the light back down to 50% and I am not on a 18/6 cycle

Cal-mag issue that won't go away
I keep getting a cal-mag deficiency. I have been using 1ml per liter of water - 4ml roughly per gallon. It is only 1 plant, the same which has had the same cal-mag issue since early veg. I include cal-mag every watering and nutrient feed day. You can see images for reference
