Calcium deficiency?
TheGourmetWeed
started grow question 5y ago
I've been using calmag on the grow, so it shouldn't be that. Any ideas?

As always, check your pH levels before trying to fix any nute issues 👌

What stage are your plants in? If in mid to late flower, I would say you're using too many bloom nutes and locking out calcium that way. Seems to be a common problem.

Why do my plants only have that light greenish yellowish look at the top and why is one of my plants also having those sick leaves at the bottom?
2 of my 3 plants are a bit yellow-ish at the top since about a week. Plant 1 also had a couple of sick leaves at the bottom that I did remove. Those leaves had brown/dark spots, felt dry like paper, had very purple stems and did smell more like hay. More info in my report.

Their appears to be little brow spots/specs scattered on the fan leaves, I feel like I’ve seen it before but completely forgot what it was so if anyone knows if it’s a deficiency of any kind it would be appreciated. I ruled out nute burn because only one out of four has it.

One plant (the one on the right) is going yellow, with brown mottling on the leaves. Both plants have been treated exactly the same. I’m giving the plant some calmag and extra nutrition after flushing it (which had no effect). Any ideas to save this plant? Worried…

Possible rust on Auto orange sherbet?
First time with this strain, Auto orange sherbet from fastbuds... Soil pH is 6.5, soil test showed good amounts of NPK...we do have a natural magnesium surplus in our soil, but it never causes issue, sprayed with neem and Arber... Looks like rust?

Weird Leaf Color
Does anyone have any input on these leaves color and shape? There are 2 of these plants and this is the only one doing it. I have seen a few gnats around this plant in particular but not sure if that is the issue?

So this girl had a hard time when we moved her from a solo cup she flipped and we are worried maybe it’s from that but also wondering if it’s genetics...

Mottling shiny spots in leaves/ nitrogen claw
What is the cause of the mottling on these leaves is it some sort of toxicity? Please look at my last diary entry (week 4) for info on recent feeding.

Leaf browning, yellowing curl one day change.
Over night my plant went from looking good with maybe a calcium deficiency to curled leaves looking very soft and drooping. I sprayed with insecticidal soap, but in the past no harm. It is growing outdoors, 30c 60% humidity. Any help appreciated. I sprayed with kelp today.

I'm still guessing what caused the disease i noticed on a single plant the first weeks of grow. A disease that didn't spreaded at all, and that affected only 2 leaves. You can see it on (Week 2 - Photo 21), (Week 3 - Photos 7, 11 & 17) & (Week 4 - Photo 4).

Leaf Problem persists and develops, advice?
Ok, I've noticed the leaves now becoming mottled, and browning. It is on the sugar leaves now, and I'm concerned over botrytis! Last question on this, the consensus was foliar spray. Any ideas why it seems to have progressed?? What should I do?Thanks all, so much! 🙏💚☺️🌱✌️
