Mottling shiny spots in leaves/ nitrogen claw
Jerseyfresh39
started grow question 6y ago
What is the cause of the mottling on these leaves is it some sort of toxicity? Please look at my last diary entry (week 4) for info on recent feeding.

Hi
@booberry39
it seems to me over-fertilization, just give water with PH adjusted to 6 for a good day and wait for your plant to recover before giving it feeds again. good luck mate 👍

It's over feeding. Just give it plain water and let the planta feed itself on the soil

Leaf browning, yellowing curl one day change.
Over night my plant went from looking good with maybe a calcium deficiency to curled leaves looking very soft and drooping. I sprayed with insecticidal soap, but in the past no harm. It is growing outdoors, 30c 60% humidity. Any help appreciated. I sprayed with kelp today.

Discolouration of some leaves
Is the colouration of these leaves someone to worry about? She’s a young, 2 week old Wedding Cheesecake auto and I’m new to growing and just want to make sure she’s ok! She’s growing in a 70/30 split of coco and soil and has only been fed water so far! Is it nute time?

Nutes too early?
The leaves of my northern lights look a little brittle and discoloured, maybe the small amount of nutes I gave were too early?

Cat piss? Not the strain....
So I've been having these brown spots, thinking bugs or aphids or.... but I spotted a neighborhood cat around our yard today, marking its territory elsewhere on the yard. Could this be cat piss sprayed on the leaves?? I wouldn't put it past this fella.... but not sure. Thoughts?

Normal or should I be careful?🤔
First time I see these little dots on the leaves, can anyone identify them or is it nothing to worry about, as I'm thinking? 🧐🤔

Some kind of deficiency?
World of Seeds Strawberry Blue. Pretty slow, uneventful life this far (on me). What seems to be wrong? Veg and a lot of light. FoxFarm soil. Half to full strength of the General Organics line. Bottom main fan leaves going first. Please refer to pictures. TY for any input!

Strange splotchiness has recently showed up in a few of my plants in different parts of the garden. I was thinking maybe CalMag deficiency? But I wanted to get an expert opinion. See latest photos.

Another question for a friend, hes suffering from a new change of colour to his Cookies Kush. A dark green marbling has occurred and he cant quite figure what the cause of it is as all his other plants on the same regime are fine. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Leaf Problem persists and develops, advice?
Ok, I've noticed the leaves now becoming mottled, and browning. It is on the sugar leaves now, and I'm concerned over botrytis! Last question on this, the consensus was foliar spray. Any ideas why it seems to have progressed?? What should I do?Thanks all, so much! 🙏💚☺️🌱✌️
