Seedling yellow spot and curl
Firstgrow1started grow question 3 years ago
I have a yellow spot on my seedling that appeared today. Seeing a slight curl in one of the leaves but can’t tell if it’s going up or down, more like sideways.

You will be ready for transplant soon. Seedlings can do weird things. Just don’t over water and don’t worry about it—- it will grow out of the weirdness

Looks like burning from splashing water on the leaves while the lights are on.
Roots need absolute darkness to develop properly, black plastic pots are best and clear or white coffee cups the worst.
Roots also need lots of room to grow, filling your pots to the top is logical.

The see through plastic cup is not the best choice to start in as the roots can be exposed to light, if you don't keep the cups cover so that light isn't hitting the roots reaching the sides of the cup. Red cups are a much better choice to start with. Problems early on is usually ph related. Cheers

I need advice on what to do with this plant. I flushed her a bit and I think nutrient burining is not showing on new growth, what ppm should i feed her?I watered only last week and mesaured runoff ppm and ph. Water was 350 ppm and 6 ph and runooff was 700ppm and 6.7 ph. Before when i fed her with 850 ppm runoff was 1500 ppm.
I would continue to water only but there was a lot of yellow and pale leaves so gave her light dosage.5 years ago

Leaf damage and flower analysisAsking for thoughts on leaf damage. I think there may be nutrient shock so I will be reducing PPM to 800 to see if that helps. I am confused by other problems seen on a few leaves. I also want to ask if I am getting close to harvest (check flower pics) since this is an autoflower5 years ago

Ongoing brown and yellow patches forming in week 6 of flowerI've also noticed today a couple leaves looked wet, so tried to wipe it off but that did nothing. I took 2 pictures of the same leaf at slightly different angles to see the shine. It's only the skunk effected (closed similar question prematurely in skunks diary)5 years ago

I'm already seeing yellowing and on the largest plant, #3. Is that due to growth or am I over watering? Approximately 2 gallons in the wick bucket every few days when it starts to feel dry, but I generally spray the top with water on a daily basis, not more than a 1/4 - 1/2 cup.5 years ago

If this was yours, how would you proceed?Going into week 6. I just clipped the bad leaves that show in the picture and will be switching to the growing stage. I plan to do the 36 hours of darkness first. Already changed the water and it has the bloom solution instead of the grow solution. What would you do now?5 years ago

Noticed these yellow spots this morning. Not sure if this is a nute deficiency, leaf septoria or too much light. My lights were pretty low as my tent isn't very tall. Have been watering at around 6.4 and recently started feeding a full dose of Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom.Week 6

Leaf damage/discolourationThe Skunk has been getting a lot of leaf issues. I have been trying to stay on top of picking them off as they appear in case it's rust or similar and can spread. It almost looks like cal mag deficiency, but I'm feeding cal mag each feed. This is the only one effected out of four5 years ago

What deficiency is this?Earlier, I added Epsom salts to fix purple stems, I’m pretty sure I over did it and I think this is a potassium deficiency but I’m not sure. I was being cheap and didn’t change res b4 moving over. Now that they moved tents, seems to be getting worse. How do I fix fast!? Pix in di5 years ago

Leaves yellowing 4 weeks into flower - a bit early?#1 Has started yellowing much sooner than expected. With 4 weeks to go, I'm not sure how much of a problem that is - what happens if I can't fix that? The other 2 are not affected and have same soil, sun and nutrient schedules. Bud production is going strong. Any remedy ideas?Week 15
