Hello. Nice grow. I was wondering, how big is your tent and how many plants can you grow in it? Thanks!

<span class="link_user">@SourDeez</span>, nah like i said input 6.0 but you want to measure 6.5 on the way out, this should be done by your soil naturally, but that&#039;s not happening. Adding silica in flower is going to cause more harm than good (pH issues with silica) . This problem seems like it&#039;s got worse and the pH has not fully stabilised. Instead of silica , try adding humic acid with your feeds. Humic acid will pH to 6.5 . The pH perfect nutrients are not exactly pH perfect sometimes - go figure ! :facepunch:

<span class="link_user">@CRiSPrGrow</span>, Thanks for the fast reply. What&#039;s weird is all of the plants are the same strain but each one seems to be showing different things. Like Number 6 on week 7 has just a single leaf that has a bunch of black and also one leaf with a huge yellow spot that I never noticed (Definitely wasn&#039;t like that last week). I still think I have pH problems or the soil is to Alkaline but it&#039;s really just a guess. I water in at about pH 6 and then the runoff comes out at 6.8ish. The silica blast is coming today, do you think I should pH my water up to like 6.5?:pray:
SourDeez
<span class="link_user">@SourDeez</span>, good news, best i can tell that&#039;s from the pH fluctuations from before and the problem seems to have &quot;stopped&quot; spreading, the affected leafs wont recover as in get better, and the damage done &quot;gets worse&quot; in the sense the necrosis completes, give it another week of monitoring if you can see the issue&#039;s not spreading or getting that much worse then you can pull it off lol . that&#039;s actually not that bad with the damage, think you managed to rectify the situation quick enough to avoid the worst :facepunch:

<span class="link_user">@CRiSPrGrow</span>, Sup dude. Hope all is well. Yo I was wondering if you could take a look at Week 6 pics and give me some feedback as to what might be going on with those brown spots developing. I&#039;m writing my entry for week 7 right now and will also add more photos there as well. Really appreciate the help. Thanks!

Dude I noticed you have a similar &quot;white patchiness&quot; in some of the leaves at week 3 that mine have in most all of the plants, but mostly in 1. I self-diagnosed it as TMV (Tobacco Mosaic Virus) and was convinced that it was that. However, since then, you&#039;re the 4th person with Seedsman Auto NL seeds that also exhibit this characteristic, but for yours it seems that it has mostly disappeared as it approached flowering. I also am in the 1st week of flower for most of my NL Autos from Seedsman (8 plants) and am showing those brown spots that I assumed was a calcium deficiency. Also, some of the lower leaves on many of the plants with the brown spots are yellowing and eventually crisping and dying. I am currently using 1/4th the recommended dosage of nutes out of fear of burning them. It&#039;s weird because the same plants that I assume are deficient and showing the brown spots and yellowing leaves at the bottom also have a slight burn on the tips of the leaves. I am growing in a 3:3:3 mix of compost, coir, and perlite however. Not sure how advanced of a grower you are, but do you have any advice?
SourDeez
You&#039;ve also got the same &quot;bleached&quot; looking portions of the leaves that I have as well! I thought it was TMV (Tobacco Mosaic Virus), but yours is the second case of Seedsman auto seeds with this trait that I&#039;ve seen and now I&#039;m convinced that it&#039;s genetics.
SourDeez
Dude, you&#039;ve got the same brown spots as I do. Same seeds as well. Seedsman Auto. Please let me know if you find out what&#039;s wrong.

Yo you got some crazy grows. By the way, what kinda light did you use that you can recommend to put in a 4x4 tent? I was looking at a Chinese one that kinda looks like yours and its 800w. Right now I&#039;m using HID like a caveman.

<span class="link_user">@CRiSPrGrow</span>, Hey dude thanks so much for taking the time to answer my questions on my first grow. I didn&#039;t even know this comments section existed as I&#039;m new to the site. It&#039;s weird because I wasn&#039;t sure if the gray/brown spots were spreading or if they were already there and I just didn&#039;t notice. They&#039;re hard to notice in the gray stage, but once they&#039;re brown it&#039;s very apparent. Now I kinda regret that I flushed it today. Anyway, I do have one more question. In my week 5 post that I just uploaded I took a picture of some &quot;soggy&quot; lower leaves that sag and eventually dry up. Is this just natural defoliation or a sign of something else? Thanks again!
SourDeez
The greyish spots look like residue from a splash during watering and the worsening splotchy burn patches could be from a pH fluctuation like last week or something , if it stopped spreading means the soil is buffering itself correctly again :+1::skin-tone-2:

hey SourDeez, hope i answered your question :man-shrugging:, anything else you need just let me know :rocket:
