Nutrient burnt leave removal question.
BackyardGardnerstarted grow question 4y ago
Should I remove all the burnt leaves? Worst ones are 25% burnt. Some just speckled throughout.
Do the flowers still need exposure to the sun? Or will the leaves exposed to sunlight keep the buds growing? Can cutting the burnt leaves cause enough stress to hermie or stunt growth?

Yeah go for it! That plant could use some defoliation this stage of flower anyway

dark, curled downwards and brown fan leavesWhy are the fan leaves dark, curled downwards and showing brown marks originating from the edges? Had an issue of dark and curled leaves for a week or 2, did think it was getting better (N2 deficiency) but now suddenly after not watering for a day the leaves are going brown.5y ago

Yellowing of leavesI usually grow Outdoor, easier
I don't add any nutrients to the plants. Only organic things during the grow, if something is missing.
The soil is a mix of compost and earth with nutrients (stuff you buy for vegetables).
When you are talking of ppm, what is it about ? Nitrogen ?Week 1

[Athens Growers - tap water and salts]Hello fellow growers!
First timer here. Noticed salt residues on top of leafs (D19 pics).
They come from the mist maker who controls humidity levels
1) How to treat their leafs?
2) a tap water filter will improve the situation or salts are normal?
Peace! 👊Week 3

Leaves pointing upHello,
One plant has most of its leaves pointing up. Plant look healthy otherwise. PPFD is around 650/700 and light pattern is 20/4
What could be the root cause? I read mixed answers. Some say healthy plants and or strain specific other that light stress.
Regards,
JeannoWeek 6
