Organic grow, yellow leaves, autoflower

Dahliakingstarted grow question 3 years ago

First ever grow. I'm in my 5th week of autoflower, organic grow. Using the bomb paonia soil, raging kush light and boogie brew tea and filter to water. Temps are steady around 86. Started noticing yellowing on bottom leaves. I'm pretty sure it's from under watering? any feedback?

Well the tea has nutrients no? Anyhow than it’s probably just a bit light on N in the soil. Whether it’s organic or not it’s still providing it nutrients Worm casting tea or something else with a decent amount of N should help..

Pull those leaves off—- maybe do a top dress with a higher NPk. And get those temps lower. 81 is pushing it

Thanks for the response. We are not using any nutrients though. Trying to keep it simple/organic

Yellowing lower/older leaves like that is a telltale sign of nitrogen deficiency. I’m not familiar with your nutrients but autos do usually need a bit more nitrogen for the first weeks of flower compared to photoperiod plants so maybe you started bloom focused nutes too soon.

Triple-leaf Speedy Chile: what is growing there? Why becoming yellow?My triple-leaf Speedy Chile (see also week comment for more info): 1. The 3 cotyledons have become yellow. I also see on lower leaves slightly some yellow tips. Nutrient deficiency? Underwatering? 2. What are the small leaves coming out of soil. Another plant? Should I remove?

Should I worry?A couple days after flipping to 12/12… I see yellow edges to new leaves. Should I worry? Wait a bit and see? The other plant looks fine and they’re both getting same nutes.

Plant seems to be dying, should I flush? And if so, any tips?Yellowing & wilting, I suspect the problem is too much silica boost .5ml every other water, combined w/ hot soil (FFOC) & a few feedings, & maybe underwatering(?) as I never have runoff, watered a cup or so every ~48hrs, when soil had dried. LST, no wild temps/hum, great airflow.

Leaves of young plant are becoming yellow The leaves of my four week old Stress Killer are becoming yellow from the outside to the inside. I am a total beginner and I read that this may be overwatering, underwatering, overfeeding, underfeeding, so I am confused.

EC too high and leaf yellow EC 1.45 and some yellow leaf… I adjusted the soup by adding water to it and the new leaves seem to be pretty ok. Otherwise, all other parameters are good. It’s odd bc I followed instructions of the brand (Platinium Hydroponics) and the EC lvl is still kinda high. Suggestions?

Yellow/gold spots on top fan leaves in bloom phase I noticed a couple of the top fan leaves have got some small yellow/gold spots developing. I've been using the same Bloom feed for this plant as my 3 Bears Smile which is 8 days further along. I'm wondering if that might be causing the problem and how I fix it.
