Burn, deficiency or other?
jbirdsthewordstarted grow question 4 years ago
I’m completely stumped as to why my one plant is showing signs of deficiency or burn. Used the exact amount of fertilizer per plant. One plant is fine and the other looks terrible. I used a half dose of cal mag and it seems to have stopped but is not drinking or looking better.

I would say you probably have salt buildup. Looks like a lot of ferts your using there. If you havent got a tds reader, maybe a good idea to get one. Check your runoff ph and ec and feed by measuring your total ppm. I think you'll need to flush these and get ph and ec back in order. I would recommend switching back to veg until you get these girls healthy again. Your harvest will suffer greatly otherwise. Cheers

I flushed as soon as I noticed 3/4 days ago. I won’t apply fertilizer again until it shows better signs. I also will go purchase a tds meter and get back. My runoff was 6.5ph. I might have to move this one out into another tent as her sister is looking very good. All fertilizers used were organic and I used slightly less than recommended, but i think you are right. Thanks so much for your help and input.

Weed doctors to the rescueDay 44, fb auto, my happy girl developed those dark spots at the top... Is this a Calmag deficiency? Although I'm giving her calmag every feeding. I think there are also first burnt tips. I'm about to water her tonight, what should or should not give her? Thanks for your inputs🙏5 months ago

PH-Problems in SoilBefore repotting, the pH value in the soil has always fallen to below 5.5. The plants always have an iron deficiency. I then repotted the plants and that worked well for 14 days. Now they are showing PH deficits again. The soil has PH 5,4 -4,8. What could be the reason?Setup. Substrates

Clawing on Lemon Cherry Cookies Fast Buds Biobizz light mixDoes anyone know what this Lemon Cherry Cookie might have? I assume it's too much nutritiens because of the "clawing" of some leafs, but it also has brighter green newer leafs, it's in a biobizz light mix, so I thought she can get the dosage by biobizz plan from week 2-1/2 onLeaves.

Buon giorno weed doctors, did anyone have similar uniform chlorosis at the top or maybe knows what's up? What could be the reason and the solution? ThIs this some sort of immobile nutrient deficiency or excess? Could this be caused by heat and light stress? She is 80cm tall and almost touches the lights in the tent. I'm usually suffering from Calmag and Nitrogen issues and haven't yet experienced yellowing from the top. Thanks4 months ago

Advise to flush or feed in VegDoes this is look like a nute burn, deficiency, or ph problem? The two plants that are growing a tad taller have had yellowing tips some curling downward. Don’t want to overreact and cause it to worsen, they’re looking healthy otherwise. Any advise whether to flush or feed?Leaves. Curl down

Leaf-tips going droopy modeAfter my second to last watering the tips of all of the leaves started to droop a bit.

Maybe PH Lockout?Hello everyone, can you maybe help me? My Black Cherry Punch has some kind of problem. I suspect it’s a nutrient lockout caused by the pH value. I flushed it two days ago, and the drain had a PPM of 1000 and a pH of 7. The plants are at the beginning of the 2nd week of flowering.Leaves. Edges burnt

I keep loosing leaves to some sort of nasty necrosis. It affects leaves at all levels, small and big randomly. I had to remove a lot of dying foliageAt first it looks like a asymmetrical spot of leaf starting to thin out to lighter color then tissue dries and turn black. I have high runoff EC3.3 and I blame Easy boost pellets because I only add rootjuice 1ml/L and sugar royal 0.5ml/L to my water. What is it and how I fix it?4 months ago

This margin curl appears to have spread from one plant to 2 of the other 3. So I assumed not pH, not lockout, not nutrient based. Roots all great. I've culled the 3 and there is 1 survivor doing well but what was this? In the diary I mention using Temprid FX, Neem, Spinosad.4 months ago
