Hola Amigos,

Lady is growing in 5 gallon fabric pots outdoors. Organic. Medium is cocopeat, perlite, vermicompost and cow manure 50:30:10:10. She was doing fine till yesterday, suddenly this morning this happened.

Can anyone help with what this is. Only at the top of the plant mostly. Is it light burn. Weather has started growing hotter last couple of days.

TIA

Please help friends. Any suggestions are welcome
Doesn't look like light burn to me, there aren't any signs of light bleaching which would occur long before you get necrosis like this. The fact that it's toward the top would indicate that it's new growth being affected, so the problem must have started in the last week or two and is coming from the roots below rather than climate above. I would look at the ph and pests/viruses first. The overwhelming majority of strains thrive in hot, sunny weather. Could also be shock but I'd expect to see twisted tips and slumping. When asking for help it's also important to specify the strain you're running, from seed or clone, etc. Best of luck and given you still have 2/3 of the plant healthy, there may still be time and hopefully others can help as well.

Looking at it again I'm leaning towards bugs. Grab a loupe or scope and check the leaves, pics if you can get them of the leaf surface will help us identify

Running reg bag seeds. I did transplant this plant about 3 weeks back. But it was looking fine always. Suddenly this happened when I woke up this morning

Should I just let it grow out of it or leech it? They look overwatered because they were just foilar sprayed with molasses and water. Today was hotter.

I have been feeding water once 3 days. Thats alright considering it is 35 degree Celsius where I live. I usually let the top remain a little dry. If my medium is dry 2 inch deep, then I rewater till about 20% drips out of the pots. I assume fabric pots should have less over watering problems. My medium and pot have excellent drainage.

I did spray spider mite organic medicine on it yesterday. I think I used too much. Could that be the reason?? The leaves look and feel more burnt than anything else.

I think you nailed it with the organic pesticide. I had that happen once when I mixed Dr. Zymes too concentrated and everywhere it sprayed, I had necrosis.

I think that's what happened. They have no further necrosis today on any more new places, though I kept it at the exact same place as yesterday. Lol, I will let it grow out of it. I don't wanna disturb the plant unless absolutely necessary

Right on hermano, they should be just fine, I'd just delay flowering by a week to let them catch up. Stay high
I'd go 2 weeks. Anyways planning on letting them flower naturally. They are growing outdoors. Considering it's still 5 months before days start getting shorter, it should have enough time to recover. Planning to making this a huge mf with SCROG
