    Older leaves turning rusty/gold.

    Ok I have gotten most everything fixed. Re-mixed my feed and ph'ed appropriately at 5.8. Also, roots were coming out the drainage of the 6" pot and circling UNDER my pot so I transplanted to a 2g smart pot. Everything is going better now. Thank you Lord Dangly Bits and TheLastWood.

    No it is 100% coco. I am using the Nutrifield brand. So in my 6" pot you are saying I should be having 4 cups worth of runoff normally? Also when doing this ph'ed flush, can you elaborate on mixing the runoff, I am confused at the moment. Do you mean allow for 1/2 gallon runoff and then mix this...

    Took the fan out put in a smaller fan. Not blowing around as bad by far. Also, I measured the amount I water with. 1 cup with 15-20% runoff.

    So, TheLastWood, do you think I should do anything besides a different fan and fixing the ph?

    Older leaves turning rusty/gold.

    Well to clear things up I am only running this single plant. I do understand where you are coming from with the "enough runoff" comment. I am sorry. I will start measuring out how much I give it per watering. I can not say at this time for certain how much runoff it is getting but the tray i am...

    Older leaves turning rusty/gold.

    Well this is my first coco crop (first crop ever actually). Imix my nutrients in a 1gallon jar and feed from said jar. I do not measure the amount of water they get but do allow for a good runoff. The pot this plant is in is a 6" pot. The plant is 20 days old from seed. This was the plant about...

    I would be willing to bet you are right on the money with ph issue AND windburn. I never knew of windburn and pictures of it do look very similar to parts of the plant.

    Older leaves turning rusty/gold.

    I have been using ph drops and shooting for 6.0 range. PPM for the nutes was at 890. Temps are now at a steady 82degrees with 36-40% Humidity. Three 26w daylight cfl's and one 23w soft white cfl. I do have a fan blowing on them that I need to replace. The lowest speed is awfully fast...

    The pics are bad (phone) but those spots are gold to the look and under light they give off a shine. This is on about 4 or 5 of them.

    Older leaves turning rusty/gold.

    I cannot get pictures right now b/c I cannot find my camera charger. Just yesterday I upped my nutrients (CNS17 grow) up to 20ml/1gal. 3 to 4 hours after feeding I noticed the some leaves with a problem. They look as if somebody to a gold sharpie and marked on them. I thought it was nute...

    Building a new grow box for my first grow, pics and descriptions.

    I need to do the same as you as far as exhaust and intake. I am using the same fans on the sides(except theyre target branded) as well as the same thermometer from WalMart haha. My temps/Humidity is exactly the same too (with some fluctuations depending on time of day.) I love the box size...

    Reconstructing grow box. Prototype ( i own 2 of the same display cases).

    I am using CFL bulbs in this grow. Everything is fine (for me anyways) until it is lights out with the door on thats when things heat up. Unfortunately I don't see changing the light regiment helping. From midnight-6m it should have time to cool but doesn't do that.

    Reconstructing grow box. Prototype ( i own 2 of the same display cases).

    Ok as of right now my grow box is 2'x2'x3'. Painted flat white with a latex undercoat for mold resistance. I have 3 26w daylight cfl's with coke can reflectors wrapped in mylar and 1 23w soft white. For my exhaust I am using a xbox 360 fan (stock 2x fan). Apparently this runs at 29cfm per...

    Heat stress, Mag deficiency, or underwatering. Help please.

    Plant looks better but still curling some. Temps at 82 sometimes but 84-86 steady. Humidity is 35%-38%. Genetic mutation? Notice one leaf is funky. Has the middle and right part only. .....Can't see it in that one. Here it is smaller, on the right.

    First Coco Grow, seedlings need help plz!

    I'm no expert, I too just started a seed in coco 2 weeks ago. One thing I have read numerous times is that coco requires nutes from the beginning because it lacks it in the medium, unlike soils. I started mine out with 1/4 strength CNS17 Coco Grow and 2.5ml CalMag+. It's doing great now.

    Heat stress, Mag deficiency, or underwatering. Help please.

    Thanks so much EvlMunkee. Went and got myself some CalMag Plus today. Mixed 2.5ml/1gal. When should I up the CNS17 Grow amount from 2.5ml? Also, raised the lights about 1-2 inchs and the leaves aren't as curled up.

    Heat stress, Mag deficiency, or underwatering. Help please.

    I appreciate the replies. So should I be adding calmag and grow for every watering?

    Heat stress, Mag deficiency, or underwatering. Help please.

    Thank you all for the help. Is Cal-Mag necessary when using CNS17 Grow? I plan on skipping bloom and using Ripe for flowering. I also make sure I get 25%-30% runoff each time. Here is an updated shot. I got the temps down to 82 with the door off the box :/.

    Heat stress, Mag deficiency, or underwatering. Help please.

    Today is officially 2 weeks from sprout. Should I up the CNS17 to full strength slowly?

    Heat stress, Mag deficiency, or underwatering. Help please.

    It's Coco Coir. The plant is still growing good at 14 days now it's just folding up on most of the foliage. I think it's heat stress. Temps keep rising to about 91.
