Yellow tips

Kickstand86started grow question 3 years ago

I noticed the tips of the leaves starting to yellow, mainly on the new growth.I haven’t noticed any other issues, being my first grow maybe I’m overlooking something. I raised my light up to 26-27 inches from 18 to see if that helps. Could this issue be from something else?

Leaves. Tips - Burnt

I'm not familiar with this strain but I am familiar with the Fox Farm nutes... Yellow tips are a sign of too many nutes - and from your diary, if you're using a soil with it's own nutes, you're WAY overfeeding! Since you're not even in pre-flower, I'd cut out the bloom nutes (or at least cut out ALL the Tiger Bloom and knock back the Big Bloom to 1 tsp per gallon) and increase the Grow Big to 1 tsp per gallon. I don't know what Open Sesame is but if it's a bloom nute, get rid of it. I'd also get rid of the CalMag (max I would use here would be 1/2tsp per gallon and only once a week). I noticed your humidity level is pretty low... this might also be a contributing factor although not a big one - but try to get it up into the 50-60% range until you get into bloom... then it can be knocked back to 40-50... I'm more concerned, to be honest, with why you're not at least in pre-flower by now... Autos do their own thing (they don't depend on you "telling" them when to go into flower the way photos do... I'm going to lay everything down to massive overfeeding... they don't need it and honestly don't like it... Good luck!

Burning from feeding too often or with too strong nutrients (or both). Autos usually do best with half strength nutrients. It is not from too strong lighting. In soil, a schedule of plain water/plain water/feed/plain water/plain water/feed, so that your plants are being fed every 10-12 days is about right. Most "feed charts" are way too generous with how much to give, but then they want to sell more products, don't they. With experience, you will "just know" when to feed and how much, and will eventually never need to use charts again. Hope this helps, Organoman.

Well excuse me if Im wrong here, but im not familiar with your nute line so im going off what it says when I click on your nutes and see what GD says. Based on that, why is the bulk of your nutes bloom nutes?? Grow big should be the main nute your using now, but you got Tiger bloom and Big bloom in there in the largest amounts. I dont know what the website is or the bottles say, but to me that seems all wrong. Your in veg, so the Grow big should be at least 1-2 mls per liter if not more, and stop using the bloom nutes for a few weeks til this is under control. The rest are fine thou. If im wrong-my bad but pretty sure someone else that knows that line can step in here and tell ya what ya mix should be if I am wrong.

i'd put your lights back to where you liked the resulting internode length. probably a bit more nutes than the plant can handle given products used. beware of FF feeding schedule.. it's way too strong of dose. it's been happening slowly, eh? rhetorical.. if so, can simply dial back and maintain existing irrigation-fertilizer dance or add another round of water-only irrigation between your fertilizations... something tht results in a small change... the first option may be better. continue to observe plant but you need to give the new change a while to show you which way it is headed, until you find that balance. small potatos.. kind of a good sign if that's as far as it goes - obviously progression is bad.. you know you are right on the edge.
