Not a deficiency, but nitrogen (over dose) burning.

That looks like PH problems coupled with over watering and a slight nitrogen toxicity! Feed your lady some light water feeding at the 6.4 range for a week! Good luck ✌️🏻💚🌿💨

Check your soil, plants will throw some crazy looking deficiencies if it's over watered. If you are sure you didn't overwater the plant check your pH.

Potassium or magnesium. Might be a touch of both actually. Is ph in substrate or Reservoir correct? Ph tool calibration done regularly?

Burnt? PH lock-out? too much Cal-mag??What do you think is wrong with this plant? All the other plants surrounding her are fine so I'm not sure what went wrong with this one. I thought it was cal-mag deficiency at first so I doubled cal-mag when feeding but it only proceeded to get worse. The buds look fine tho 👍😳

Small brownish spots forming on lower leaves. Need help with diagnoses!Hi all. Just migrated plants to new tent/fan. I have much better environmental conditions. Now I have these leaf spots. I've included recent measurements. I was going light on the CaliMagic using 1/2 tsp per gallon. Is that my issue? Roots look good. Thanks everyone!

Is this just genetics or deficiency/disease?Is this mottling some kind of deficiency or disease? or is it just a genetic variation? This Sour diesel had a two toned leaf at the 3rd node and had this mottling from the start.

Bruising or nute problem?I do not have enough characters here, please check diary for details. Some tops are showing some problems. The thing is, only a few and it does not seem related to light distance. My first thoughts is this is bruising, but I would like some more expert opinions.

Why have the leaves on my plant turned pale and crispy?4 weeks into veg with auto and all of the leaves (including new growth) have turned very pale and dry, starting at the tips and receding rapidly. I’ve used the same two part nutrient solution in the same quantities as I did with the previous same auto, so Disease maybe?

The yellow spots that were seen last week have multiplied and started to appear on newer leaves. I should mention my tap water E.C is 0.8 so quite high. I still however added calmag this at it seems to look like a calcium deficiency. Are they to young for one though? Thank you
