yellow leaf, brown spots deficiency
Beans416answered grow question 3y ago
Hey it looks like nitrogen deficiency. Buds are taking nitrogen from the leaves and not the soil.
Hope this helps happy growing.

Another thing to look at is where/what. Where/What leaves are affected. Old/bottom or new/top. My guess is N, P, and K, unless you have re potted recently.

Slight Leaf Discoloration. Early zinc deficiency?Girl showing slight discoloration on newer leaves. Mostly interveinal + little on the tips. Guessing it's an early zinc def. but would like another opinion. Watering sparingly at ph 6.3 - 6.5. No runoff yet, so ph may be higher in soil. Lower ph and watering til runoff next time?Week 2

Early growth sick plants - photoperiodPurpling stem, yellowing leaves, droopy leaves - I’m thinking nitrogen deficiency, but I’m not sure if I should add more nutrients or not to my current solution or if I should flush completely. PPM is at 850, and the PH is 6.3. What are your thoughts?
Any GH nutrient schedules?Leaves. Curl down

General healthAdvice please just on wether it's looking healthy. :)
I've been too careful with watering and some leaves turned yellow. Feeding 1 litre every other day but maybe that's too little? Stopped with the Biobiz fish and switch to growbloom. Leaves at the top look droopy still?3y ago

Yellowing Too Fast Or Natural?I'm roughly 2-3 weeks into flower. Over the last week, I've noticed more yellow leaves than normal. Majority are bigger, older fan leaves but some are moving up the plants. New growths are a nice green and buds look healthy. Am I under feeding or overreacting?5y ago

Why are my plants leaves so bright green/yellow?Wondering if anyone knows why the plants might be looking as light green as they are? We are running a purely organic grow and have not added nutrients beyond the super soil mixture. Wondering if anyone has any tips or suggestions, thanks!Week 6
