Definitely get the right equipment- a ph pen, or ph strips ( which are constantly reliable and much easier to find locally ). But until then try to buy a few gallons commercially available water- most manufacturers list the waters ph either on the label or their company website. This will give you confidence knowing you are feeding them closer to the right range

It's a PH imbalance problem leading to nutrient lockout causing your plant to starve. PH pens are essential grow tools.

Can anyone tell what is causing these yellow tips on new growth on this plant?I noticed my DLI was around 42 at the top of this plant so the light may have been too strong, or it could be a nutrient issue? Using CoM Stonington soil, plant is 26 days old. Haven't added any nutrients to the soil yet.Leaves. Tips - Burnt

Strange yellow patchesThis is a new one for me, sont think I've ever seen discolouration like this before. My first thought was having left some nute solution on her leaves after feeding but pretty sure I've ruled that out and more leaves have begun to show the same discoloring. Any advice appreciatedWeek 12

Yellow leafs purple stem (not genetics)Three of the older leafs are turning yellow with purple/brown stains in them, also their stems turned purple with no other stems being purple in the plant. Is this phosphorus deficiency or nitrogen deficiency? Already top dressed with worm castings and bat guano high on P and k.Week 7

Weak yellowing leavesNot every single time but quite often my plants are turning yellow in the middle of flowering. It starts from bottom and follows to top. I can basically “take off” leaves off stem and the upper ones getting dry and brittle. I’m also quite sure the ph level is correct. Any guess?3y ago

Calcium deficiency or overfed?Hi.
This is about my Apricot Auto which already suffered the yellow tips/edges. I took that as the result of heat/light stress.
Now she also developed discoloration and brown spots on some of the leaves. It looks like a Calcium deficiency to me, but I am quite uncertain.
Thanks!7mo ago

Yellow leaf edgesI have a couple plants that are about 5 weeks old, and one has started getting yellow edges around the leaves. I feed them with worm tea, kelp, and calmag every other week, but it's a light dose so I think this is a deficiency and not a toxicity.Leaves. Edges burnt
