can anyone tell by looking at this leaf what the fuck is going on?

I phrase the subject that way b\c my rooms are a hodgepdge of different shit, but they all have in common that they are soil (well, a mix of happy frog and pro mix with some rock dust thrown in) and I am using the fox farm 3 part schedule.

This problem seems to start as brown or light brown patches, then turns to this, then eventually, the whole leaf is crispy and dark brown.


this problem seems to start really really small, sometimes in veg, but doesn't get bad until mid flowering, then I am racing it to harvest every fuckin time.


any ideas? 100_2606.jpg100_2603.jpg100_2604.jpg100_2605.jpg


I have a not too large budget for gear, but there is something to work with. I have not been Phing my nutes, the test kit I have becomes useless when I add some of the things I add, and the cheap Ph meter I bought is garbage.

Please help a brother out, and thanks

despite the fact, that even i (still) worry about leaf drop during flower. those look over watered. or could be over fert. but mine look like that when they are getting ready to fall off during flower. i was using foxfarm also. with the three supps included. (6). now, i went to cannas canna vega, and gp's flora nova; both one partrers. you neeed to get a good ph meter. i had the probe. what a joke. now i have the canna ph and ppm meteres. digital. u callibrate em time to time, with the 7.01 and 4.1 solutions. most ph soils are cool. normally, with the use of good soil, and water, ph in soil is usually not an big issue.

This is what happens when chemicals don't like each other, ph starts to jump everytime you add liquid. Do the leafs feel leathery? Do you live in a metropolitan area? If you use tap water and live somewhere that has reclaimed water then, what YOU give your plants is not all they are recieving, some types of nutes respond in ugly ways to the FREE CLORIMINES in tap water. And are responsible for probably half the mysterious unexplained plant problems we experience. Sometimes it's the little hidden things we "don't" think about, that causes the problems.
 
It sounds like a cal-mag-pot problem. Something similiar happened to me, but in hydro not soil. I dunno how to fix it in soil.

My town uses chlorine, but I have not been letting the water sit, so there is definitely still chlorine in the water I have been giving. I don't think the leaves would qualify as leathery so much.


I am not sure what you mean by reclaimed water. (?)
