Something is going on here, just not sure what... plenty of healthy growth, but theres a few of these in the mix...IMG_3758.jpg and new growth seems to have come to a halt for about the past 5 days or so... If you know please inform me thanks...

Plant is in FF OF with Perlite in a 3 gal. pot... fed grow big for a while at 1/4 strength. and happy frog fruit and flower 5-8-4. 24in tall 12/12 under 156 watt cfl bongsmilie Planted in Feb.

No nutes left in soil, not feeding enough when watering. Up your feeding to at least 2 ts's per gallon, 1 ts of gb is only around 200-250 ppm and if your doing 1/4 that then your way underfeeding. That plant is eating stored N from the leaf and that is why it looks like that

Did this happen right after feeding/watering? Is this a mother plant or why are you vegging for 5 months? It's in some type of shock weather it's your ph is off or you fed to many ppms at one time either one could of done it!

And another FF tip, keep grow big in you feeding schedule the first 2-3 weeks into flowering. FF's schedule isn't right, their bloomers don't have enough nitrogen in them to support how much nitrogen the plant requires at that stage in its life

Awesome thanks guys... and no the plant flowered on april 9 originally and re vegged and now is back in flower... I'm just keeping it alive for experimentation I will up the grow big and maybe get another high N nute (suggestions?)... Thanks for the fast replies...

Grow big is all you need, I like to foliar feed with it too. 1/2 ts per gallon spray both sides of leaves and that lady will love ya for it. You should try cloning her. Here is something crazy for ya, one of my strains like N so much during flowering that I use an extra 2-3 ts's every watering along with my regular feeding of sensi bloom. You would think that it would burn them but they eat it up like there's no tomorrow

this looks like heat stress thats turning the leaves brown and drying them out.

possible problems:

pH fluxuation
lights to close to that side of the plant
stagnant air inside the grow space
fans pointed directly at the plants drying them out

its definitely not a nutrient defficiency. unless the leaves began yellow and were neglected.

Actually I have been cloning her.. even in flower roots in like 7-10 days beautifully... I water about 1/4 gallon every 2nd-3rd day and go off my moisture meter... I just gave her 2 tsp in a 1/4 gal of distilled water(think that's enough water?), so hopefully that helps. I've thought about foliar spraying with grow big but wasn't sure if it was a good idea, thanks for clearing that up...

Not the lights, it's one light fixture above the plant and this is seen in random leaves from the bottom to the top..
How would stagnant air only effect a few of the leaves?...
Using one 4'' fan which is directed at the light/canopy, no signs of this on canopy...
