Looks like there’s yellowing in between the veins of the leaf to me. That or the lights making it look that way. Anyhow that’d be magnesium deficien

Nitrogen deficiency??
Looking like I have a nitrogen deficiency. Thoughts and what do I do to correct other than what I've done already with a top dressing off earth worm castings and blood meal?

Brown spots on top leaves - nutrients, light or something else?
She went into flower, now stretching. Set light to 100%, added Bio-Bizz Top-Max and Bio-Bloom (1ml/L each). 3 days later brown spots appeared on top fan leaves, very few also on lower fan leaves. I suspect this could be light burn or nutrient related. Any ideas? Pls help

Is this a Deficiency or Normal Flowering.
Flower 4 weeks. I have noticed thru flower approx 5 - 10 leaves/week which eventually brown, shrivel up, and fall off. Leaves seem dark and the stems are slightly reddish purple but potassium test on soil shows high potassium. Some burnt tips and claw down on upper leaves. PH6.0

Is it light burn?
Could this be from light burn or is it something else? Moved my light 15 cm higher for now. Some of the branches are showing purple color. That means stress for the plant right?!

One of my plants fans are yellowing, spotting, pretty badly. The medium PH is 6.5, same as my other plants, but she just doesn’t seem to be liking it. I’m using nutrients, but not heavily. About a quarter teaspoon per gallon of the flora trio. It’s the mid fans not bottom or new.

Nutrient deficiency? Or just getting ready for harvest? Sister plant is very green (different strain, strawBerry cheesecake, last pic)
Plant is Raspberry Kush, I’m assuming it’s because she is close to harvest and it’s sucking all the nutrients out. Also, looking up other raspberry kush diaries i’ve noticed they tend to end up pretty yellow. Was fed bloom nutes yesterday but noticed lots of yellowing today.

Is it normal for new growth 10 days into flowering to be lightening in colour? I am new and noticing that it is fairly lighter than previous veg growth before as my nutrient needs and feed has changed. Just want to be safe! Thx 😄

Is this nutrient burn? Had what looked like a lack of nitrogen early on, lowest leaves were healthy then quickly went yellow and worked up. Now have fed nutes at 0.7EC (tap water left for 24hrs to 0.28EC) so fed under 0.5. Bio-grow 0.5ml/l bio-heaven 1ml calmag 0.25. Thanks
