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 ! 🚀

Leaf issue Got an issue with some leaves turning this colour. Anyone got any input? We are nearly 7 weeks in, growing in compost and only feeding 1ml/ltr. I’ve also attached a picture of the whole plant. Leafs at the bottom seem to be turning, the ones up top all seem a good colour.

Brown dots White Widow Auto RQS 9 weeks old Third grow. My plant started making brown spots one week ago. Today, the problem continues. I feed my plant with Pelargon Terra Bloom, sometimes add Pelargon PK13-14. I don't control ph level, but previous two plants don't have this problem.

Does this look like minor leaf burn, too many nutrients or something else?I believe two of the plants developed minor leaf burn. One has white streaks on the middle and outer portions of several leaves, and the other has a rust, reddish stripe parallel to the center of several leaves. I’ve attached pictures above. Thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Slight discoloration in the leaves The leaves are starting to get slightly discolored on the edges, what could be causing this? Could it be the white flies? Or could it be too many nutrients? I am giving the plant a bit of Canna A and B, although it's meant for hydroponic, it's all I have at the moment.

Leaves fading and dying, started from bottom but spreading I’m starting to be at a loss with this. Calmag issues earlier in veg, seemed to improve for a while but now bottom leaves started to die - I thought this was just due to beginning of flower but it’s getting worse and spreading even to healthier new growth. PH (should be) fine.

Light green "splotches" on leaves Hi, I've noticed light green "splotches" on my leaves which I'm having trouble matching with images of leave problems. Doesn't appear to be impacting on growth and the issue is only visible on close-up so it might just be me being over concerned, but I'd be grateful for advice!

Bruising or nute problem?I do not have enough characters here, please check diary for details. Some tops are showing some problems. The thing is, only a few and it does not seem related to light distance. My first thoughts is this is bruising, but I would like some more expert opinions.

Deficiency or Pigment?I have strange brown spots appearing all over my top fan leaves at week 7 of Flower. I thought this could be genetic coloring starting to fill in, but now I think it's something more. https://media.growdiaries.com/static/post/photo/31218/4085521_grow-journal-by-livewire99.jpg

What went on here??This is an Orange Sherbet I grew in Happy Frog with the FloraGrow series. I harvested early because I thought the plant was dying, and couldnt seem to stop it by flushing. Does this look normal for a plant being flushed out? Should I have waited?
