Leaves are getting yellow and brownish spots
WietBioloogstarted grow question 4 years ago
Two plants, one is getting light green/yellow (more yellow at bottom, light green at top), other is getting brownish/greyish patches all over. I have started feeding over three days ago for the first time (very rich starting soil). Any input on what to do?

Those dark patches in the first picture screams oxygen starvation. The second picture points to calmag deficiency. You could have both. make extra sure of you ph and ec levels. Adding 3% hydrogen peroxide will add oxygen to your root zone. Other than that, the last pic showing your plant looks awesome. Keep up the green work...good luck and happy growing

There are holes in the pot ofcourse, I meant making some holes in the soil. But I checked and the drainage seems to be okay, proper run-off coming after watering. Maybe calcium/magnesium shortage...
I think I will wait for a couple of days to see if the nitrogen feeding does anysthing before trying something else.. Maybe calcium/magnesium addition...?

Are there no holes already in the pot? If so, definitely make some drainage holes. Thats probably the cause of the lack of oxygen, you're downing them.

Maybe to much water can be the problem then? Should I try to poke some holes for draination?

I add water from groundwater (around 15 celsius (60 fahrenheit). But regime is 12/12 with 600W lamp, around 30 celsius during light, 15-20 celsius during dark. pH of water was around 6.8 en run off water 6.5.

Hi mate, that looks like lack of oxygen in the root zone. Your substrate could be too warm or your water being added it too warm. When the water goes above 72'F it prevents the roots being able to absorb oxygen. Too low and she will be unable to absorb nutrients. I hope this helps, good luck and happy growing

Yellowing sugar leaves?Does this yellowing on the sugar leaves look problematic? I know the end is near so I don’t want to do any damage this close to harvest. Think another week will be long enough?

Yellow lower leavesHello,
This is my first grow and now I'm confronted with the first problem.
The lower leaves on my plants are turning bright and yellow. A few leaves have very small brown spots. Can someone help me and perhaps have an idea as to how I should proceed? Thanks.

Nitrogen deficiency but why?My Critical Auto is more and more wilting and yellowing. Most likely due to nitrogen deficiency. Some have red tips on . PH of soil was normal, how can I make sure that it's not nutrient lock anyway? Should I flush it nonetheless? Feed it more? More info in my diary.

Can I use magnesium sulfate foliarly?Hello, this plant is at the beginning of flowering and apparently has a magnesium deficiency, right? Can I use 100% Mag Sulfate from the pharmacy via foliar treatment? I'm using Calmag 2ml/L but it's not having any effect.
I should add Dolomite Limestone to the soil this week.

Living soil and rain water problemHas using rain water killed my living soil?
Has anyone got experience of using living soil with rain water? Apparently the ppm is too low (just like RO water) for the plant to take in nutrients.
So basically is my living soil now just soil or is the microbial life still there?

What can I do? Leafs starting to turn yellow. First growerYesterday, I noticed some leafs starting to turn yellow and also the tips of the top leafs to be a bit brown. So I watered (nutrition in the desc) and calmag 2 ml, because I thought it might be either lack of PK or cal mg. What else can I do? What about my watering schedule?
