Potassium issue?

THraCian
THraCianstarted grow question 3 years ago
Noticed some brown spots on only one plant on the top leaves, it looks like potassium issue, but not sure if excess or deficiency. I gave it PK booster tea, but it had some undissolved residue from it exactly on that plant, so I am wondering if that caused it. Day 26 of flowering

Hi there Thracian, so basically it's still a magensium issue, you can see that from the discoloration on the serrated edges of the plant. Like i said above, a spray is much better. Uptake efficiency through the leafs is 80% and uptake efficiency through the roots is 20% so, it's a quicker way to fix deficiencies. Just make sure the water dropplets are quite dry after a while otherwise they can collect on the leafs and even make a burn like what you're seeing now because of the lights. otherwise just up the calmag a bit in the feed. Lack of cal mag is a very common problem in biotabs . That's because there is not enough regular chelation or something like that with biotabs. Everything else is fine growmie, just fix this and the problem should stop spreading immediately. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Hello THraCian in my opinion it is potassium deficience due to an EC too high in your soil. So rince your soil with water then give adapted dose of nutes. You can also add calmag like epsom salt in spray if you want a quick effect. Don't hesitate to use an additive like florakleen or enzym + to clean your soil and brake salts residues of nutrients. Good luck. Bye

I'm sure I just answered this question then it disappeared and appeared again. The brown markings on the side of the leaves are probably from a need for more potassium. Increase your PK a bit and see if this helps.
