you’re locked out bad - possible overfeeding too or salt build up. But main issue is a pH of 7 in coco is wayyy outta range

Do you have an ec/ppm pen? Testing the value of your nutrient mix can give us an idea if your over feeding. You can also test the runoff water to see if you have a buildup.

It seems to have started after addition of "chi ching" nutes . Coco loco medium. Similar thing happened last grow. I thought was light burn but raised them weeks ago & it's gets worse.

looks like light burn but could also be food related. Especially with a PH of 7 which is max for soil and to high for coco/hydro. Need more info to have a better guess.

Leaves curling upwardsWhat could this be?
I consider too intense lighting, could that be possible.
Just transplanted a few days ago into these 1,7l pot's. Since it is the first time i use the The Mars Hydro TS 1000 for flowering i think i might have given the plants too much light.Leaves. Curl up

Has anyone else heard of using epsom salt with gallon of water for magnesium and sulfur issues? I'm told you can water them or spray them during lights out. I've had some issues before with magnesium due to soil pH recommended by maker didn't follow it I later corrected it pH4y ago

Is this Potassium deficiency? If not, which deficiency is it? Day 99, 39F. Leaves getting a bit yellow, while having browning on the tips.I know that it is not overfeeding, and I also know that it is not lockout. PH could be off, but I do not think so. So, what deficiency is this?3y ago

Upward curling leavesYesterday applied heating mat bcs temp was dropping to 14C nights. Now it stays 30C allday with RH 30%. I have found my seedlings looking like this morning. Leaves look dry. Could this be the excessive heat shock? Or soil dried up quick? What should I do? Water? Raise RH? How?Leaves. Curl up

Some leaves are showing small burnt spots and slight curling. what could be? I'm currently dealing with Fungus Gnats in the grow. I applied Beauveria and covered the soil with burnt rice husk. I’ll wait for the soil to dry and then use hydrogen peroxide to try eliminate the eggs.Leaves. Tips - Burnt
