Copper spots
MrFinkstarted grow question 4 years ago
I noticed these copper spots and leaf tips about a week ago, it doesn’t seem to be progressing too fast. The plants otherwise seem to be healthy but what is the issue? Magnesium Def?

What I see is too much nitrogen in flowering. The glossy dark green is a good sign. Should take pictures in white light, very hard to diagnose when it is not under white light. Too much nitrogen in flowering can hinder bud development. Next is potassium deficiency is causing the spots. Potassium is the most needed nutrition in flowering. For potency, and some of density. Plus strong growth. So basically a nutrition inbalance is the issue. Ph can cause problems lower ph in substrate acceptable range is good at absorbing nitrogen. Higher ph in range is better for potassium absorption.

Could someone help me to identify the issue my plant has?This girl isn't looking healthy anymore and I need to figure out why. What I did: I topped her pretty early but she recovered well (you can see it in my grow diary). A week later I transplanted her from 0.5L pot to her final autopot 14L. After that she had a hard time recovering.Leaves. Color - Yellow

Dark purple areas on leaves — genes or environment/feeding problem?What the heck is this? Is it just purple genes or a stress/deficiency or a combination of multiple factors?
I have checked three visual cannabis plant health guides, and did not find a single issue which looks like this. Maybe a combination of 2 factors, but I'm not convinced 😐2 months ago

help in Hydro RDWC/DWCHello, my plants are now about 4 weeks old. The leaves droop and curl. The spots on the leaves are increasing. Is the PPM value too high? It's 1000ppm tds
They grow in an RDWC system with top feed. The top feed is permanently switched on. Can that lead to problems?Leaves. Curl down
