Black spots on leaves
Trickotreat47
started grow question 2y ago
So I have those black spots on leaves on top of the canopy of my plants. Can someone please explain what are those and how can I treat it? Also the edges of the leaves on top of the canopy are brown and crispy.

The burnt tips are a nutrition/pH issue. The black blotches could be a fungal problem due to poor air exchange/high humidity.

What's causing my brown crispy leaves!?
Over the past week my plants have taken a turn for the worse. Many leaves went from yellowing to browning to completely crispy! Other leaves have brown spots on them and some of the stems are purple.

Flecken auf Blatt und Halm oder Helikopter-Mutter
Die 2 Flecken auf dem vorderen Blatt und die dunklen Stellen am Halm beschäftigen mich ein bisschen. Glaubt ihr, die Pflanze hat ein Problem oder mache ich mir mal wieder zu viele Sorgen? VP 10. Steht im 11l BB AllMix und wurde einmal am Anfang der VP mit 3l gewässert.

Are those nutrient defficiencies? Which ones?
A plant had interveinal chlorosis on new leaves and then proceeded to show brown patches between veins on middle leaves. Another has coppery brown spots on leaf edges on the middle of the plant. Both were rootbound in living soil (peat/perlite/hummus + ammendments).

What kind of deficiency? What should I do? By the way, they're autos.
What kind of deficiency do I have going on here? I gave a good dose of calmag last night. The first signs were the dark spots on the leaves. Been feeding ff bloom nutes every other day, 1/4 to 1/2 strength. started from the bottom. Leaves turn yellow and then dry up.

Stickstoffüberschuss?
Habe bei meiner Auto das Problem das sie kaum in die Höhe wächst, dazu die Flecken auf einem Blatt. Ich habe aber das Gefühl das die anderen Blätter auch zu dunkel sind? Vielleicht wächst sie wegen einem Stickstoffüberschuss nicht mehr?Sollte ich erstmal ohne Dünger gießen?

Leaf issues with 3 Pineapple Express Autos - is it burn or deficiency?
All 3 plants are having issues to the lower leaves. They are dried and brown blotches, brown edges of the leaves, leaves drooping off and curling down and brown. They switched to Canna Terra Flora two weeks ago - is this a over feed or deficiency?

Leaves brown down the length of half the leaf
I have some leaves that have gone a bit brown down one half, but along the length. See them in Day 40 pics (I have added a extra comment there). Does anyone know what that is? I was thinking maybe it is just the bits that have been sitting under other leaves, but I am not so sure
