from what i have found from looking around it appears to me as calcium deficiency since the little brown spots and the tips of the leaves curling. im not forsure since others have told me that its nitrogen which i know it is not and some say its no deficiency so please some one tell me know if i am correct or not thank you

they are in some sta-green potting mix. just what i had around when she needed to be transplanted. i took all the time release balls out. she was looking perfect untill she got to the 5th node then this started to appear. i have fed her maricle grow all purpose once then a couple waters later i fed her ome tiger bloom. and that is it i have watered her once since the tiger bloom and she needs another water today . shes an auto.

Usually mag deficiency looks pretty uniformly. It tends to stick between the veins of your leaves. Same coloration, just a different pattern. I don't think mag deficiency affects leaf edges like in your photo. Looks more like nute burn to me but then again, I'm no expert on diagnosing plant problems.

hm alright do you know what it could be? does it look like burnt like said above? i dont think its nute burn since i dont use alot and ive never had brown spots from nute burn. some one else said it might be the soil. could it be a ph problem? i dont have a ph reader for soil right now

It could be the soil and ph. I'm no expert like I said, but MG and Tiger Bloom are pretty damn hot feeds. Usually when someone is asking what their problem is and they mention miracle grow, I tend to err to the side of burn. Someone else would probably be better to help you. I'm pretty sure it is not a mag def.

ive had that same problem once, it started from the oldest bottom leaves with dead patches with yellow spreading just like yours what were ur temps when this happened for my situation at the time temps were to cold and caused a nute lockout, read up on pottassium def and nitrogen def even if u kno ur its not ur nitrogen, cause you got the eagle claw going which can be a nitrogen def but thats just my personal opinoin good luck on ur grow dont give up

make sure your Ph is near neutral. water heavily and let it dry out each time you water. that might help clear out those extra salts. i personally start with a mix that's rich in organic matter so i don't have to feed for about 4-6 weeks. only epsom salts. a lime drench to adjust Ph and some molasses. plants are nice and dense.
