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

Any help identifying this leaf issue?
Hi everyone, I have a couple of issues popping up on Medea's leaves, and I'm not sure what they are. She's in week three now, and otherwise looks healthy (if growing a little slower than usual). Her last feed (3 days ago) was her first one with a 1/2 dose of the GH trio (0.3ml/L)

Any ideas on what's going on with NL-2? Fan leaves are discoloring, interesting pattern. From Websites, I'm thinking a potassium problem, but am not sure. And am not sure how to correct this close to harvest (3 weeks give or take). Thoughts?

On my NLxBB there appears to be rust spots developing on both sets of the first true leaves, i've only fed nutrients once on Day 10 and that was at quarter strength. Not sure if this is a sign of overwatering or if I need to start feeding with Cal-Mag more regularly.

Hello, I just noticed that some of my leaves are starting to have slight discoloration and some holes. See images in week 6. I don't see evidence of bugs or mildew and my fan may have been too close for the leaf with holes. I feed once a week and have switched to a high K feed.

It's day 17(Dec9) and my leaves have a strange discoloration. I can't seem to find out the problem. I have uploaded a picture of how it looks in detail Under week3. Only the older leaves have it with the oldest having the most discoloration.

Deficiency?
I noticed this spot on one of the fan leaves. It only appeared in the last couple of days. I have been feeding small amounts of calmag and biobloom. I looked at deficiency charts but I’m unsure. What could it be?

The rust spots on the leaves are getting worse. I flushed twice and fed with a bit of extra runoff, but a day later and the curling burnt ends look like nute burn. Any thoughts would be great!

Hi Growing-Community! Today I detected small brown, rusty spots at the top on new leafes (see pictures at week 4). Anybody any idea what could be missing my Nothern Light-Girl? I transplanted her to 11l-pots with BioBizz-Allmix last week and gave her just water (PH 6.5)?

Bugs, spiders or fungus?
Hi everyone, what should i do with this in floration? Neem oil? Soap? Im starting the 9 week and i think that if i use neem oil now, it will leave some taste on the buds. I touched some leaves and the white marks stay, it isn't powder, but is white. Thank you 💚

Why do my plants only have that light greenish yellowish look at the top and why is one of my plants also having those sick leaves at the bottom?
2 of my 3 plants are a bit yellow-ish at the top since about a week. Plant 1 also had a couple of sick leaves at the bottom that I did remove. Those leaves had brown/dark spots, felt dry like paper, had very purple stems and did smell more like hay. More info in my report.

Help, I'm getting yellow brown patches on the leaves! This has only occured over the last few days and up to then the plant was really healthy apart from slug trouble. It's getting 1.5ml of both bio bloom and grow per litre.

Copper colour, brittle dry patches, any idea what this is caused by?
Does anyone know what this is caused by? I've had it on several plants in the past, as well. I've looked it up, but nothing seems to fit. I'd appreciate your opinion. It's on a few leaves, which is why I'd like to know. Thanks, I appreciate your help!! 💚

Noticed small brown spots kind of center of leaves, noticing some kind of chewed up deformed leaves now. From what I've read it sounds like leaf hoppers? Has anyone else had a similar experience?
