Leaves turning yellow and burning - Nutrient burn or Nitrogen deficiency?
danielvt32started grow question 3y ago
Lower leaves burned and curling. I was convinced it was caused by overfertilization but someone brought to my attention that it could be a case of nitrogen deficiency. First time growing. How do I fix it? Do I cut all the burned leaves?

She also looks slightly stunted, but likely in a week or 2 she should recover

Looks like over watering, ph, and a deficiency or lock out

Cut the one's that are over 50% damage, and feed it only ph water till she recovers. Good luck 👍

Need to know more about your watering/feeding to narrow it down.
Ph and EC or ppm
Frequency of watering
What are you feeding them?

That is not a N deficiency. Your lower leaves would be fading from green to yellow. That is a burn of some sort.
Seeing that there isn't tip burn im guessing pH issue possibly? Could also be over watering. Lemme check some charts.

Light greenSome of the leaves have started to become yellow while the rest of the plant seems to be fine.
Feeding every other day to the biobizz schedule. Has anyone got an idea what the issue might be? One plant shows strong leave claw on two sets of leaves but new growth is not affected.

Yellow blemishes1 week old seedling is starting to develop yellow blemishes on initial leaves. Soil is biobizz lightmix, PH 6.2 from bottled water with no nutes, 150w led light is at 50% and 25-30cm distance. Is it a cal-mag deficiency, light burn, genetics, or just too soon to worry?

Is this light burn?Is this light burn? If not what is it?
It's under a Phillips 13w household led 2700k bulb, it's not the only affected area but it's the most affected and the closest to the bulb.
I plan to add more but don't want the issue to accelerate.
Thanks in advance!

She has preflowers and started the stretch period.
All new leaves have pale tips, just the new ones on each branch.
I'm using atami Terra leaves, 4ml/l 850 ppm pH 6.2
Is it too much? They don't look burned is more a deficiency maybe

I'm starting to notice yellowing of leaves almost daily now on a Critical XXL scrog grow.
She is 5 weeks into flower, had a rough (cold) start, and has always been a bit stunted.
I was worried I'd overfed (3ml / l biogrow) so scaled back for 2 weeks.
Is this normal?

Why is one leaf yellow AND shiny?Plant has one leaf that is yellow on one side, and shiny/dark and curling up on the other side? From what I've read those are 2 opposing issues (light burn or nitrogen deficiency/or toxicity) the others are pretty much uniform, Could this be from getting water droplets on leaves?
