What could be causing these spots and burnt tips?
Lol_You_Looked
started grow question 3y ago
I noticed this starting this morning, the pH was 6.3 and 210 ppm. The water was about 7-10 days old. So I figure water change time?

No your pH is too high. 5.8 is for vegging. Your ppm is pretty low. I start around 500 ppm,I also run first solution 3 to 5 weeks.

I'd like to know what happened to my plant but I'm unsure how to properly describe it. The photos in my diary should be able to make it more clean (W18). Maybe it was botrytis but I caught it on time? Or maybe something else? The trichomes got dark orange where all this happened!

Nutrient deficiency which kind and/or light burn?
Do I have some nutrient deficiency or light burn or maybe both? Looks like maybe P or K? I changed my light to a HPS and the plants grew much closer to the light so could be too much PAR/heat so I raised the light. I also had started to add Cal-Mag to my feed just before.

Is my plant over fertilized or is it light burn? Any advice in general? Why is it taking "longer" to flower?

General concerns about the plant health and expectations from her.
Will nute burn have a big affect on my final yield? Are my buds likely to increase much in size? Leaves discolouring normal at this stage? Does she look likely to produce just popcorn bud at this point? Can I do anything about it? Also not many leaves on the plant?

Nute or heat issue??? Help plz
Is this a nute issue or pH or heat? The plant is just under 60 days. The makes on the leaves have moved to all the major fan leaves. pH usually between 6.0 and 6.8 only starting feeding nutes a few weeks ago. This plant is in the middle of my sp3000 at a distance of 18" or 45cm

Lime green mottling on leaves
Hi, Still seeing mottled green on leaves, more visible on the first set. She appears to be growing well but I'm eager to understand whats causing the green mottling so I can head off any problems. I've been comparing with various leaf issues but struggling to find a match?

Is this heat light burn? HPS 600w at 20cm
Is this light heat burn?? These are all buds at the top of the canopy and they are the ones nearer to the lights. I have 2x600w HPS, one with a cooltube and the other just with the wing. The possibly burnt buds are the ones under the wing (just 20 cm).

Do these random spots mean nutrient burn/deficiency, or is this normal?
I have been feeding my plants 1/2 strength FF once weekly since week 3. The plants seem to be doing well. One has twisted leaves but seems healthy. But the plants are displaying random spots of yellowing. Is this normal or indicative of some kind of nute issue?

Starting to have an issue with the Industrial plant. Lower leaves are showing a number of bronzey brown spots with edge burn. Any ideas? I think it might be a magnesium issue because it appeared as the plant started flowering. Picture of the leaf above. Fan leaf stems are purple.

Their appears to be little brow spots/specs scattered on the fan leaves, I feel like I’ve seen it before but completely forgot what it was so if anyone knows if it’s a deficiency of any kind it would be appreciated. I ruled out nute burn because only one out of four has it.

Strange spots in leaves, help PLEASE
Please, HELP. I don't know what's happening with these strange spots. Her growth is pretty good but I'm worried. Lights at 60cm. Nutrients, Temperature and RH are theoretically ok. I've even enriched it with worm humus a couple of times. Her sisters are really good all of them.

Mottling shiny spots in leaves/ nitrogen claw
What is the cause of the mottling on these leaves is it some sort of toxicity? Please look at my last diary entry (week 4) for info on recent feeding.
