LIVE SOIL. too much nutes or not enough?
flo_420started grow question 3 years ago
I think its toooo much nutrients from the live soil, and cold/dry conditions for too long. but someone else said it's lacking nutes?
(I was sick, and they were a bit neglected for a bit.. )
using live soil, like I said
more info in my diary
thanks so much for any input 😊

Hey Growmie,
She's certainly not lacking nutes, it seems as if she has nutrient burn, those tips being burnt is an immediate giveaway. The conditions are going to be the blame for that, a low humidity level causes plants to drink more resulting in “nutrient burn”, which gives the leaves tips a yellow or burnt color. Hopefully, this was helpful, and remember "Happy Growing" and "Free your mind one puff at a time".

too much, I notice this on younger plants with dry amendments.
best to cut the feeding down and spread it out over two weeks. vs monthly toppings.
Good Luck!

Yep-nute burn. You can up the humidity a bit for a while so she transpires less and sucks up less nutes, and just use straight water for a while too and she will recover just fine. But no more top dressing or nutes for a while ok. let her use up whats there first.

Seedling Light-burn or ToxicityHi growers!
Is this Light Burn, or nutrient toxicity from nutrient dense soil?
2 Mars Hydro TS600 lights at 27" from seedling.
PH 6.3 misting soil - RH is 75-80%. - Temp is 77F
No light meter, so I estimate PPFD is in acceptable range despite using 2 lights in 2x2 tent.Week 1

One plant (the one on the right) is going yellow, with brown mottling on the leaves. Both plants have been treated exactly the same.
I’m giving the plant some calmag and extra nutrition after flushing it (which had no effect). Any ideas to save this plant? Worried…Leaves. Color - Yellow

Strange discolorationThe plant is becoming less green, more yellow, dark green/blue, and the tip seems necrotic. She received a little more light intensity (TS1000 at 50cm, 25%dim to 50%dim) when she was repotted on the final DWC. T.A. (Growing on FeedChart) was used to create the nutrient solution.Leaves.
