Do these burnt edges look like heat stress or a nutrient issue?

zacwazstarted grow question 2 years ago

I noticed this browning on the edges of two fan leaves this morning. The affected leaves were right next to the space heater that runs all night (cold basement!), so I *think* it’s probably heat burn/stress. But don’t want to ignore a potentially more serious issue. Thanks!

I'd keep my eye on them, tbh... it certainly COULD be from the heater but it might also be the beginnings of a phosphorus deficiency.... I don't see any pH information or nute information in your diary - but you need to keep the pH between 6.0 and 6.5 for a soil grow... Good luck! Nice looking jungle so far! :-D Did you decide to keep all of them going? Hope so!

Root rot or pH imbalance?This blueberry muffin (f) plant was doing well until last week when it started deteriorating. Its grown on a mix of cocopeat, vermicompost, perlite mix and fed on compost tea and cal-mag mix. I might put it down eventually but I checked the pH and it was 5!

Maybe PH Lockout?Hello everyone, can you maybe help me? My Black Cherry Punch has some kind of problem. I suspect it’s a nutrient lockout caused by the pH value. I flushed it two days ago, and the drain had a PPM of 1000 and a pH of 7. The plants are at the beginning of the 2nd week of flowering.
