Are CBD-Strains less nutrient-hungry?

Merulixstarted grow question 9 months ago

Hey Guys, i experienced that these strains like a lower EC/TDS. Every time i went over 1.2 EC (600ppm TDS) they showed signs of over-nutrition, like very dark green leaves and reddish brown leavetips. What are your thoughts on this? Are CBD-Strains less hungry on nutrients?

Each plant from seed is different. Some needs more food, some less. Autos tend to need less, but i had heavy feeders too. Just adjust, its your as growers duty to react to different conditions.

Normal trichomes or something bad?Dumb question, I started noticing this on my leaves. I recently battled with insane humidity which I was just recently able to fix, and was wondering if this is normal/my usual over worrying or if it's some sort of mold/mildew/fungus or something I should actually worry about.

1 out of 3 doesnt do as well as the others Im just wondering why one out of 3 plants, does not perfectly well while the others seem doing awesome. Can it really differ from a strain that it shows signs of light stress or nutrient burn while other plants seem to do well with it? I added 3 pics, 1st one showing the meh one

Spotted Leaves My ladies looked good until recently, it has been very warm the last few days. Then they began to let their leaves hang down (didn't get enough water) and gradually turned yellow, now they are getting spots. This is my first grow and I am not sure what it could be.

New growth looking strange and growth slowed down (wilting?)The new growth of my plants are looking a bit strange, and growth seems to be slowed down. Could this be that the light is too strong? Or can this happen if the humidity is too low? I already installed an humidifier but looks like its not helping. Whats going on? Info in week 10.

Tiny holes!?This morning while looking I noticed tiny little holes on some of the leaves on one of my plants. I didn't see any pests with my eye, and I tried to use my phone the best I could but couldn't see any. I've also heard this could be environmental/viral. Any thoughts or ideas?

Identify Issue: Brown Spots, Lower leaves first, from outer-tips Showing up on 2 out of the 5 in my soil bed. Front 2. Transplanted 10 days ago, went well enough. Watering with tap water, never tested but didn't have an issue last run. Same soil, but I did add 8 cu ft of new soil to the top. Gently amended with b6, Kashiblend, coconut powder.

4 times same genetic but one has hanging leaves The top right plant´s leaves are hanging down since ~10 days. Don´t think it´s because of over-/underwatering, since I water & feed every plant the same and the others are doing great. Was it maybe too stressfull to set the LED from 160W to 240W on 35cm distance when going 12/12?
