answered grow question 3y ago
It’s hard to tell from the pictures. But I’d start by checking (and double checking) your PH. I’d check the PH of the runoff and go from there. If it’s not a PH issue you’ll know it’s a deficiency and can make a better diagnosis.

To remove or not to remove
Sooo, 10wks she is looking strong. Do I remove some of the bigger leaves that are almost 6-7 inches long or do i wait. Should I switch to other nutrients now or I have tiger bloom, open sesame, beastie bloomz and cha ching. I don't understand the feeding cycle it confuses me.

There are some really big upper leaves, which are blocking the light and airflow for some of the grow nodes? Is it safe to get rid of all of them? Should I leave them where they are?

Spots on leaves after spraying with Plagron Vita Race
On the 4th of March during lights ON I sprayed my plants with distilled water with Vita Race (3ml/L). I noticed that after it dried up there are some weird spots on the leaves that were left behind (see picture). Any idea if that can lead to problems later?😅

C02 exhaust bag
Hi. I wanted to know if adding a CO2 exhaust bag in a small grow tent (60x60cm) is effective for overall growth? I'm European and most off my pairs said it was useless but the topics dated from 2010s and I couldn't find current definitive argument so... here I am.

Inside of seed stuck on cotyledon leaves keeping them together
Has anyone ever had the inside of the seed stay on and keep the two cotyledon leaves together? The outer hard shell has come off. I've been spraying it to try and soak it off but it's quite hard. Anyone ever successfully deal with this or will it just pop off on its own?

Dark spots on leaves forming
So this is two separate plants I've got brown spots forming at the top. They're both about 4 weeks into flower. Watering every 3/4 days (4/5 litres each) with nutes. Humidity around 50% 26 degrees day time around 20 at night. Any ideas?

Deficiency on Leaves
What kind of deficiency causes small white spots on the leaves like this? Also on the lower leaf it's a bit mottled and yellow. I think it is two distinct problems.
