Purple leaves getting worse!?

GracelessGardensstarted grow question 3y ago

So I started getting light purple/yellowing last week, after my last grow question, I landed on potassium deficiency. I gave a healthy dose (2 tbsp in a half gallon of spring water) of Fox farms big bloom (0-.05-.07), within the last 48 hrs and the purple looks worse? Any ideas?

It's your substrate ph. Which is causing the deficiency to show the roots can't absorb it. It's wanting the potassium. I will do you.

Leaves curling down, Claws I got claws on 1 of my plants, leaves are curling down. I think it's nitrogen toxicity but im not sure since they can handle a lot of nitrogen during veggie right? I already flushed to be sure. I would like to know what's your diagnose and how to handle it?

Leaf diagnosis: nutrient burn or deficiency (or both)?he leaves with the burnt tips appear to be more prominent at the top of the canopy, only affecting new leaves. A handful of these leaves look a little twisted. Meanwhile, the yellowing leaves are more prominent in the middle of the plant, just below the canopy

orange sherbet crispy leaves. Close to harvest Fastbuds Orange sherbet first grow. I already harvested this plant but I’m curious what the issue was. The leaves were yellow and crispy to the touch. Other leaves looked fine. 2.5oz harvest but it dried really fast(7 days) and now smokes harsh. Don’t want to repeat this mistake.

Yellow spots on leaves 🙏Greetings... I just transplanted this "Stoopid Fruits" from a Solo to a 2 gal cloth pot after the leaves started to droop and the roots were partially root bound. Starting to perk up but I have some yellow spots, should I clip this leaf off?
