Hello everyone, how is growing? I noticed some leaves turning yellow on the last week, I'm not sure if I overfeed them or if it is some kind of reaction because I put a new fun in the grow. Does anyone have the same kind of situation? Because it happened only in one of the plant
Solved
Week 10
Leaves. Color - Yellow

High Captain, The cause of this dificiency could be pH issues or overfeeding. So to find out the problem here you need to measure the pH from your soil to make sure that this is not the cause. I will explain how to do this. And if the pH is in the right range then you need to flush the old nutrients out of your soil so you can start giving the right amount of nutrients again after doing this. I will explain you how to measure pH in soil first. And how to flush the nutrients out of your soil after. For measuring pH in soil just follow these steps. Your pH should be around 6.2. 1. Place soil sample about ¾ full in sample jar and add distilled water to cover soil. 2. Cap the jar and shake the soil vigorously a few times. 3. Let mixture stand 10 minutes to dissolve the salts in the soil. 4. Place the pH tester into the wet soil slurry. 5. Measure pH and record measurement. If the pH is in the right range then flush out the nutrients with a good flush of your soil and I will explain you how you can do that the best. You can do this flushing by slowly pour water pH 6.2 onto the top of the soil, allowing it to drain freely from the bottom of the pot. Pour slowly, so the water doesn't overflow from the top of the pot. Use approximately four times the pot's volume in water to flush the soil. For example, use 1 gallon of water for a 1 quart pot. After the flushing you need to let the soil (almost) dry out completely. From there you can start giving water with pH 6.2 and nutrients but do not exceed EC 1.8 to make sure that you don't overfeed them in their last weeks. Happy Growing! 😋

day 67 plant 1 picture looks like a sulfur deficiency... is it prgressing from tip of leaf down to petiole? (the chlorosis occurring -- this one how you discern a magnesium deficiency from sulfur) or, is it progressing from petiole/base of leaft to the ends? (sulfur deficiency) Senescence is a possibility too. Some nute mixes work better across a wider range of plants -- not saying it is "optimal" for each but will result in happy, healthy and symptom free plants. So, if you continue to run into plants that react differently to your mix (1 sample of 2 plants is not sufficient to know), then it prolly needs an adjustment in ratio of components and/or overall PPM. I've run 6-7 strain grows out of 1 reservoir before with no issues. It is possible. Was the mix perfect for any 1 strain? i have no idea, but i also cannot resolve that sort of difference with my eyes, so it's close enough. create some room for error -- if you use water tanks with wands, buy 2 so you can have 2 mixes at any one time... if you use a reservoir, have a 2nd one you can use etc etc... some alternative to mix up a 2nd batch for a trouble maker. (infers wrong thing, the only ppl making a mistake is the grower and never the plant, but is funny to say)

You've got a deficiency of some micronutrient - which one, I can't tell you - what I CAN tell you is that this is most often caused by a pH that is not in the proper range and has therefore locked out the micronutrient(s) your plant needs. I don't see that you're measuring your pH - if you don't have a pH pen, I would suggest you invest in one of them (Apera or Blue Lab are the best) as soon as possible so you can get this under control. Since it's a lockout situation, you're going to have to flush with pH'd water - growing in 3 gallon pots, this means you're going to have to run 9 gallons of pH'd water through each pot... in the LAST gallon of water, add your nutes at 1/2 strength and then wait for the pots to dry out before giving it any more water. The damaged leaves won't repair themselves but you shouldn't see further damage. Everything you give to your plant, water or nutes, needs to be pH balanced to 6.0-6.5 (preferably 6.2). And every time you water, you should be getting about 10-20% runoff to help avoid the build up of nutes/salts. This will help avoid excesses/deficiencies/lockouts ... Good luck!
