Rusty leaves late flower

I have noticed rusting on the autoflower leaves, it is within its last 2 weeks of cycle, but looking into, it looks like a cal mag deficiency. Is she just hungry? Do calmag every feed and water? I'm trying the latter to combat the problem, any advice for future ref is appreciated

It looks like a cal/mag deficiency but I would not worry about it this late into the game. You’re nearly to the finish line by the looks of things. I would just water with pure pH balanced water from here on out. Let the plant use up as much of the stored energy as it can, in my opinion it really helps the cure process. For future grows, I would boost your cal/mag up slightly during flowering, especially the first 3-4 weeks. If you wish to run cal/mag during your whole grow it would be best to find a nitrate free source of CalMag to do that. I hope this helps.

Nothing you do now will fix anything before harvest. Remember......what is showing in the leaves now, is a direct reflection of what was happening in the root zone 2-3 weeks ago. It is not a cal/mag deficiency, but most likely burning from feeding 10 different fertilerzers and a build up of nutrient salts in the substrate due to not getting adequate run off each time you irrigate. Plants look generally good though and I would not worry too much.

what the other said minus the root washing or flushing advice. Just give water let it use up what its got. End of life its gonna change colours regardless of feed. Good Luck!

No more feeding needed mate let the plant take what it needs from the leaf energy which will make those leaves fade and change colour So just water from now on until harvest PS those are beautiful looking buds mate 👌

Si son las últimas 2 semanas no hay de que preocuparse es normal. Puede seguir agregando fertilizantes una semana más y la última semana hacer lavado de raíces. Su planta se ve genial.

This is the Ripening phase. Your buds look nice & big & what's been developed trichomes (strength wise) isn't gonna go anywhere. Once ripening is over. If you see a rapid drop in water intake she's had her fill completely. Most times tats pushing a plant to the max. The rust spots are signs there's too much N left in the Ripening process. If you've much in flowering there's many pk booster just for this phase A perfect grow would show a tiny amount of N taken in from the plant in Ripening while pushing pk. This is called crop steering. Drought to flowers for a short time during Ripening can also force the plant to dig deep pushing her bud strength. This is maximising what's sugars/nutes are left in the plant and a new phase for the plant of intake pushing the plant more as it starts to slow down on N intake slowly you can crop steer. As she is. Just keep feeding. Check with a loop 90-95% cloudy few Amber but don't wait for them if its mostly cloudy

Hey there, Rustic leaves refer to those with rust-like spots or discoloration. They can be a sign of various issues, including nutrient deficiencies, fungal infections, environmental stress, or pest damage. When you notice rusting on your plant leaves, it's essential to investigate the root cause. Check your nutrient levels, growing conditions, and for any signs of pests or diseases. Once you've identified the issue, take appropriate action to address it. This might involve adjusting your nutrient regimen, improving growing conditions, or treating for pests or diseases. By addressing the problem promptly, you can help ensure your plants stay healthy and continue to thrive. Let me know if you need further assistance! Happy growing! 🌿
