Red_i_jedistarted grow question 7y ago

I'm starting to have leaves showing deficiency on new leaves right at the top, rusty and spikey edges, fading to yellow. I thought phosphorous deficiency but after adding ashes, no luck. I have added pics. Hope someone can help. Cheers

38cm is too close for a light of that intensity.

Looks like a mix of nute burn and overwatering in your bad pictures. The leaves are drooping (overwatering).

Crispy leaves?Crispy leaves developing as it flowers. Seems to just be those that had some spots from what appeared to be a magnesium deficiency. I hit it with cal-mag and the spots stopped but recently the most affected leaves are shrivelled. Only maybe 4-6 leaves right now.

So, tiny rust spots on upper fan leaves (please see pic above-week 8). Is this a Calcium/Magnesium issue or something else? I’ve been weaning these ladies off the CalMag over the past 2 weeks and then this showed up. It’s also been very cold in my tent so I’m not sure. Anyone? 😱

1 out of 3 doesnt do as well as the others Im just wondering why one out of 3 plants, does not perfectly well while the others seem doing awesome. Can it really differ from a strain that it shows signs of light stress or nutrient burn while other plants seem to do well with it? I added 3 pics, 1st one showing the meh one
