answered grow question 4y ago
It looks like a definite nitrogen deficiency... if you had linked this question with a diary, we would be in a better position to advise you but on the surface, you need to definitely add nitrogen!

Nutrient burn, Light burn, or Phos Def? red stems purple bruises,
Noticed red lines leaking red into the leaves with purple bruising, and the starter bottom leaves seem to be turning yellow, with the leaves above looking dark green with spots. Is this signs of light burn or nutrient toxicity? And is it lacking phosphorus or just the strain gen?

Purple tips
Hi! I'm finishing up flowering and I was wondering what happened that made her tips turn purple. Nutrient burn? Deficiency? Cold (she was exposed to 3 C for a few days)? Genetics?

Leaf diagnosis required
green love potion almost a full 5wks into flower and today I noticed some rusty spots on a few fan leaves as well as purpling at the tips. The only leaves affected so far are the one pictured and they are near the bottom of the main cola, is this anything to worry about?

Purple/dark under the seedling leaves
Is this normal about genetics that one of my Fem NL seedling has purple/dark under the leaves? Only one of them has this dark color under the leaves, rest of them looks like always before 🧐

Dark purple areas on leaves — genes or environment/feeding problem?
What the heck is this? Is it just purple genes or a stress/deficiency or a combination of multiple factors? I have checked three visual cannabis plant health guides, and did not find a single issue which looks like this. Maybe a combination of 2 factors, but I'm not convinced 😐

Another round of Name That Deficiency
5 weeks into flower and this plant seems to be the problem child but she’s also the one showing the most growth. PH is 6 on her, was originally 6.2 but was having a manganese deficiency so went down to 6.0. Gave 3/4 of recommended nutrients in last feeding. Not sure what to do.
