Some new leaves are getting yellow/weird. Do I need to worry?
DeepWaterGrowerstarted grow question 3 years ago
Hi guys, from today some of new leaves are growing like this. Is everything regular or is it a sign of something wrong? Given my inexperience I don't understand the symptoms from the leaves.
Info: DWC - 42 days from germination - PH 6.0-6.4 - EC 1.5 - Temp: 29 - RH 60%

I would say she is hungry or your NPK ratio is incorrect.
Test your EC after she has drank some of your bucket.
If the EC is lower then increase the feed, If it is the same then your NPK ratio is incorrect. I don't think its calcium as your adding a lot to your feed. I would say more P or K .
If it is higher then your in lockout and need to reduce your feed.
Also note your humidity is fairly high. You want to reduce it during flower to avoid bud rot. Shoot for around 40-50.

She need more potassium and phosphorus in her diet. At ph 6.3 and up you will get lock out signs as well. If your ph in your bucket is changing fast is a sign that more nutrition is needed as well.

Right up front, I know nothing about DWC so I can't give you any specifics for how to correct the problem - but what I see in the leaves is two-fold... too much nitrogen (very dark green leaves) and a calcium deficiency (yellowing leaves, veins green). The ONLY thing I know about DWC is that the ideal pH is around 5.8...
I'll let other chime in here for more specifics.
Good luck!

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?Week 3

Slight Yellowing on tips of new-growth? (VEG)Why am I getting slight yellowing on the ends of new-growth leaves? It's affecting every plant. The only clue I have is that it might(?) be related to very cold nights because of my re-vegged photoperiod showing purpling on the edges of its leaves. Any ideas?Week 5

To solve the problem of leaves, we did not notice any difference with an ec of 0.8 and 1.4. (group separated 2 weeks ago) :/ Any propositions?
In hydroponics is it common for you to use power roots, green sensation, cannazym or the hydro A&B product really enough? Thank'sWeek 5
