Why are these leaves browning?

Piffersonstarted grow question 3 years ago
What is the cause of the leaves browning on the shorter GG4 plants? They are closest to the fan but it’s pointed away and set to the lower setting. PPFD over those leaves ranges from 800-1100, while the ppfd over the unaffected Lime OG is 1300.

If you don't know its PPM or EC I still think its a bit of over feeding. You should try and get a TDS pen 20$ not to bad. the PH is ok. I think its to be a small amount higher in flower vs veg for hydroponics, but not 100% sure. The max u want is 6.2 min 5.5

I don't really see anything wrong here? If there's a few rusty spots it's mist likely a mild calcium defeciency. The orange leaf tips is a slight over feed at some point (which is very common) some growers prefer to see this.... Light burn is a bit more obvious, and you would see it in and around the highest points of the plant only at first,

I’m using autopots but the ph going in is 6.3 and the ph in the tray is 6.1, not sure if the EC value. I think the issue is that my recirculating fan deposits about two feet in front of the fan blowing on the plants so those plants weren’t getting enough c02. I moved it right behind the other fan so hopefully that helps!

Looks to be a bit of light burn to me. but I also see more tip burn below the highest set of leaves. that's points me to think its an over feeding issues with just this plant. Are you monitoring your EC and runoff? Best Of Luck and Happy Growing.

With PPFD on 1100 1300 you need to add CO2 Without CO2 PPFD on 900 Is safe zone, PPFD 1000 is higher range Too much photons Is not always the best choice Have a good one buddy!
