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.

Wilting leaves and copper spots? Save Me!
These copper spots started appearing around 2021-01-28, and the wilting leaves started 2021-01-29. The newest additions to the environment were the much stronger MarsHydro 300w light. I've had to water more often because it dries out pretty quick with the rampant heat. what next?

Calcium or Phosphorus Deficiency?
One of my 3 Cream & Cheese has upper leaves on 3 stems/colas per the pic. The lower leaves are OK, the other 2 plants are fine. Thought calcium at first as phosphorus is more lower leaves? Maybe just add CalMag? Thank you so much!!

What's wrong?!
Can anyone tell me what's going on with this? Leaves are getting white markings and are fairly limp to the touch (although they are not drooping). I've checked underneath and there are no signs of any bugs... nothing flying through the air... All other plants are ok!

Brown spots followed by necrosis on Mandarin Sunset.
Any idea what could be causing this necrosis on my leaves? Starts with the spots and grows to crisp up the leaf. My soil should have plenty of calcium and magnesium. Happened once before on Gelato and never deciphered it.

Calcium issues?
Is this the start of a calcium deficiency? Aside from these couple of spots the plant looks healthy, but I really don't want this to progress. I can't measure my PH for a couple of days, sadly, until I get the equip through the post to do so.

Ok so this has been living on Oceans FF soil and 6.0 ph'd water with hydrogaurd. Last week I added a little Beastie Buds and a very little calmag b/c i thought i saw some red stems. Deficency or excess? Has the soil ran out of food?

Nutrient deficiency or surplus?
Hi Guys will post a pic shortly. Have to update the grow as we are actually heading into week 6. One of the white widows is a fair bit smaller than the other. And is showing some form of difficiency or nutrient burn. I think it may be due to to little phosphorus. Opinions?

Calcium deficiency?
So, 2 out of 6 are showing this, it looks like a nutrient deficiency, Calcium I'd say. It's only present in one leaf on each plant, in the bottom. I've got here CalMag ready to apply, just wondering if you guys agree with me :D Thank you, and keep it green :D

Leaf problem, insects ?
Plant is approx 60 days old. I have found and washed off what look like insect eggs under some of the leaves but have not seen any webs or moving creatures. Is it insect damage or could it be fungus. I have 2nd plant that seems unaffected. Mainly lower older leaves affected.

Can anyone help me identify the cause of the rust-colored spots on a couple of these lower leaves? I am guessing some kind of nutrient burn.

What are these on my leaves?
I was told perfect leaves are impossible to get, but this has to be something right? I had some nutrient burn from one week that was quickly stopped at least as far as the tips of leaves. Is this nutrient burn? a nutrient lockout of is it normal for flower? Im hoping this is norm

I'll just leave this here.
Only a few leaves, but should I be worried? Last few waters have only had calmag to see if that helps.

Is it infected?
Is it infected, like mildew, or has it just some nutrient problems in the beginning? And the leaves form is just the genetic i guess?

Little browinish/beige dots near leaf veins
I noticed some weird little browinish/beige dots near the veins of some leaves, mostly the upper/center ones, those exposed to the light. I checked for bugs everywhere, even with the jewel loupe, and I haven't see one. What can it be? Maybe heat/light stress?

Can someone look at my newest pics? 1 of 4 plants (shortest of the 4, so its not light burn) has about 6-8 fan leaves like pics. Happened 36hrs after i did a big flush, that brought my ph down around 6.7. I think its either too much nutes, or lacking phosphorus. Help!
