Yellow leaves. Nitrogen deficiency?
MissMollystarted grow question 4 years ago
I just transplanted. They were started in soil but have switch to coco as the soil I usually buy is on back order. Coco with 10% worm casings. The yellowing started before transplant but seems to be getting worse. All others seem ok except this one strain.

I’m growing in coco and was under the understanding that they need a little water every day?
They looked very similar before transplant so I really suspect a deficiency of some sort? The others are now showing lower leaves yellowing. Could it be nitrogen??

Honestly it looks like Overwatering to me.
Just stop giving her few days until green come back and soil quite dry. The problem is that OW + Transplant will slow growth a lot for sure so minimize stress for recovery
Have a nice grow ! 😎

Spots on leavesI'm still dealing with some spots that seem like cal-mag lock-out/deficiency but my PH is at 6.2-6.5. I think the light was too powerful I moved it up from about 16" to 18". I hope to have a lux meter soon to confirm any light stress issue.
Still look like PH fluctuation?5 years ago

Leaves turning yellow from the bottom upMy older plants leaves are turning yellow from the bottom up. Its probably a nitrogen deficiency I think, I read that its common for plants in late flower but this one just shot its first pistils. What would be the smartest thing to do to combat this? Thx

Yellow spots nute difficiency? Light burn?I noticed spots on both LB and NL that seem look like nute deficiency, my best guess is cal. I will check pH of soil runoff at next watering to eliminate lockout as a possibility. I've heard FFOF soil runs out in about 4 weeks, maybe that? Light burn from water drops on leaves?Week 4

DeficiencySpotted a deficiency on my AK 420
Checked on growweedeasy charts and Imo it's a cal/mag deficiency.
I meticulously check Ph and runoff and she had the same treatment as my royal dwarf.
Probably more hungry than the others.
Just wanted to make sure, cal/mag deficiency right?Week 6

Leaves turning yellow with brown patchesI noticed the first real leaves on one of my plants turning yellow in FFOF. I transplanted them into bigger pots with ProMix M in hope that it would stop. Condition seems to continue worsening. I have started to notice the cotyledons on some of the plants turning yellow.5 years ago
