hi there Habosabin, that's micronutrient deficiency, you're adding silica which is basically optional but you're forgetting calmag which is absolutely necessary in soiless grows. Just add calmag asap . Hope this helps ! 🚀

Hi there.I’m almost sure it’s a female (pic). I got my first bugs. By the look of it I guess it’s spider mites. What I did so far is spray top and bottom leafs with a neen oil solution after lights out and since I saw it on only 2 of the bottom leafs (removed). Any other tip?

Look At This Pigmentation!
Lower fan leaf vs upper fan leaf in the canopy. The difference in pigmentation is wild! It almost looks like its bleeding. . , , , . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ?Why?

Please look at the leaves shown, orange and dried parts. I asked a similar question earlier but these look more damaged and I'm wondering if it's worsened due to my setup. Wind damage from fans? Water damage from humidifier? Light or heat damage? Managing VPD is tough. Thanks!

Just to confirm, this looks like nute burn, doesn't it?
Burnt edges, tips curled up, canoeing. I've been having trouble balancing airflow and heat in such a small tent, and as a result the tent is on average about 28 degrees celcius daytime and the plants still get a lot of wind. Looking for whatever advice you can give! :)

On lower leafs some brown patches started to appear and leafs are turning to a yellow color. Think is either Cal def by how it looks like or it is because of PH fluctuations as last week we changed our PH to 6.2 for 4-5 days and now it is back to 5.9 and under 24h spots appeared?

Nutrient Deficiency
Is this a PH issue showing or nutrient deficiencies (possibly caused by bad PH anyway, at 6.2 atm higher from earlier in week.)? Possibly magnesium deficiency, looking at pics. Anyone confident? Been hot in tents as well but water temps kept decent about 68-70.

Leaf Spots, weak color, and leaf ripple
Please help me identify possible causes of this: small spots on leaves, minor color fade (not burn) along edges, and strange 'ripple' effect. A user commented that he thought my plants looked deficient but hasn't elaborated further yet. What might this be? Multiple issues?

Leaf yellow dots, small holes and dry/degraded leaf
Hello guys. although some of the guys here said that my plant looks healthy (I just posted some pictures in another question and in my diary), I'm really wondering about some leaf (lower ones). I also found some "tiny" hole, you can check one in a picture. It's all right?

Is this Yellow spot septoria?
Hi gromies. Is this yellowing caused by septoria? Or just normal N deficiency during flower. I can see minor pest remains ob leaves and stuff but not affecting plant overall. Plant in good air flow and humidity around 50% so I question whether it's septoria. thx in adv.

Getting a few lighter patches on some of the leaves (in the last 2 shots) and not sure what is causing that... possibly the cold? Any help would be much appreciated!

Yellow leaf tips and edges
Hi I've got a problem that I've seen from the start of my grow and it's getting worse on older leaves now - zoom in edges and tips are turning yellow. I thought it was magnesium so I've dosed with Calmag but it's not improved - I'm Ph6.5 - any ideas?

Manchas en hoja
Hola! Aparecieron estas manchas en una hoja de una GG#4 de zamnesia en su quienta semana vegetativa. No es algo que me preocupe, ya que la planta tiene una apariencia sana y crece vigorosa. Pero nunca vi este tipo de manchas y me gustaría saber su posibles motivos. Un saludo!
