Deficiency or light stress?

Rollex420started grow question 4 years ago
I start by saying that the light was not close enough to cause stress imo.. was about (30cm) of distance from this plant. it seems that it is more a deficiency in my opinion but I don't know exactly which one.. What do you think about that?

Hey there Rollex, it's hard to say because of no diary, but i'm seeing two potential issues (both quite minor at this point!) . The first issue is the burnt tips. This is not caused by a million different reasons : it's simple nutrient burn. What you want to do is decrease your NPK by a few points just to give the right amount. You dont need to flush, flushing causes stress most of the time so it will likely make things worse not better. Second issue is the discoloration on the sides of the leafs and between the veins of the leafs. This one you're right: the root cause is probably due to the light. if you have a high intensity either because of the power or in your case because of the proximity, the plant needs more micronutrients, so that's why you're seeing signs of magnesium deficiency. if you're already giving cal mag, dont change a thing, you already fixed it. There's going to be a bit of "inertia" so the problem will take a few days to stop spreading, but the plant should recover in 10 days or less. Hope this helps ! 🚀

This looks like a Magnesium deficiency. Magnesium deficiencies are relatively common, and can usually be corrected by adding magnesium sulfate or Epsom salts to your feed. To treat this problem for the long run though, the plants should be flushed with pH6 water, then fed supplements. Also, 30 cm is pretty close this could be playing a part too, try raising the lights to 45 cm this should be better.
