My leaves are discolored! Stickies not helping

What is the runoff PH? If your PH is too low or high you will definitely have nutrient disorders, including the uptake of calcium. That might be the case here. If your tap water has a neutral PH (7), start using it and adjust to app. 6.2. I would add some Calmag to your feed water in case your aren't now. Start with the PH though. Another thing to consider getting is a soil test kit. I have found them very handy, and they are not that expensive on Amazon. Your plants look good though except for those leaves. Good luck.:peace:
 
I had this exact problem a few weeks ago. You need to go ahead and flush them good while I never figured out the root cause of the issue, I think it's one of three things... 1. Ph is low 2. Salt buildup or 3. Calcium deficiency. The flush seemed to help all but one of my girls, and if left unattended they will get much worse, working their way up the plant. Go ahead and flush it good and add half strength nutrients with a cal mag supplement and see how it goes. If you do find out the cause I would love to know because I had a big problem with this. Check your ph run off and I would almost guarantee its going to be low. Report back with your findings.

Nutes : Advanced Nutrients, most of their Bigger Yields system, Sensi Bloom A,B ; Big Bud, Bud Candy, Nirvana, B-52, Voodoo Juice, Piranha, Rhino Skin (was free sample) - I have kept most of my feedings light, around 300ppm, with a max of 575ppm yesterday. I do feed, water, feed every other day, they are drinking a lot of water lately

and so far no one has guessed ive only been followed with more questions
This thread had me laughin' from the beggining :mrgreen: ....So now that you've been trolled, and someone had an estrogen dump on you, and they all made you jump through hoops (lucky they weren't on fire) it seems to me you have a salinity build up...I would flush and follow the directions on your nutrients cause damn a teaspoon of the nutes I used to use was a full dose, if I had of dumped a tablespoon on them they would be dead...

been feeding fox farms trio, only did 2 feedings so far.

3 tsp of big bloom
3 tsp of Grow big (alternating feeds)
2 tsp of tigerbloom

i switched to tblspns yesterday because i believed i wasnt feeding enough
I am with RIKNSTEIN, You need to flush that medium with distilled water if possible something that is around 7 ph, like spring water and low ppm. You need a run off close to 7 than not. excess salts from grow big and tiger bloom, use big bloom once stable but only 1 tbs per gallon every other watering.

What probably occurred here is you overfed in reaction to a deficiency which must of been the lighter colored green / white leaves. Possibly Cal Mg. Cause undetermined. This exasperated the original issues causing severe burn and lock out of nutrients.. PH lock and Salt build up. But hey that is what most rooks do over react and think gagging their plants roots with nutes will fix the problem. No worries flush well and give her a break for a week or so, if you can and are using soil introduce healthy microbes back into the soil then add Big Bloom as prescribed... best wishes... make sure you check out my bitches...

how are you doing that?.....looks pretty good
I invested in 6-1,000w MH/HPS Raptors, and it's all solar and wind powered...no elec bill...:mrgreen:....getting ready to take the whole house off the grid, 6 more panels and 1 more windmill and I'll be set...
Here's my last grow (a little sloppy) showin' off my raptors...and the grow I just cured...My flower room.jpgweek 9 of flower.JPG

EDIT: My new set-up is better...I have thick mylar on the walls...only up about 5 feet though...I don't think I need it higher..lol

Thank God I have a smaller house :mrgreen: only around 4,000 sq ft....but it cost 8,500 (rounded off) so it'll pay for itself in about 4-5 years, but I'm bill free and everything is paid for so any cashflo goes straight to the bank :hump:....all I have now is property tax and insurance, which ain't really shit living in a rural area like I do....all I have to do is finish it...:roll:
