Help!! Leaves getting worse

mastadj19 · May 18, 2021

Soil Mix: 3:1 Happy frog to Ocean Forest
Medium: 4:1 Soil mix to perlite
Strains: Girl Scout Cookies (Day 27) fem autos
Lights: SF2000 and SF1000 in 2x4 grow area
Temp Range: 74 - 68 lights on vs off
Humidity: 40-55%

The only added nutes were 1/4 strength Kangaroots the first and third watering after transplanting into 5 gal fabric pots.

GSC is showing some brown and yellow colors on the first nodes. Leaves going up have started to show this yellow pigment coming in.

Any ideas as to what’s going on?

I know the Led lights seem to need more Mg,more temp also like 80f.
Thats all I got.

You slopped some nutrient water on your leaves probably weeks ago

If it offends you remove the leaf
You aren't trying to make a celebrity video of your plant

The more I research the more I think it’s Mg deficiency. My plan is to flush with pHed water at 6.25-6.5 and see how she does in a few days. I may add some Alg-a-Mic to the next watering after to help reduce the stress if that’s a good idea or not idk

No dont flush! Not sure why you fed the new transplant dirt is full of food.You can add a little calmag or foiler spray some epsom

I fed the plant 1/4 strength Kangaroots Root Drench as I read that it will help as it adapts to its new home after transplanting. Could have been bad info. I’m worried I may have lockout due to pH problems so I was thinking to flush. Why do you suggest not flushing?

You are gonna love those plants to death
If you keep making changes it will be a mess in flower
The damage often done doesn't show up for awhile

Ok so just get a good myco powder for next time you transplant,just sprinkle in the new hole.Every gardener has some.
Your plant is fine,What is your water? Basic tap water around 7-8 ph is fine.You just need to ad a little Mg.Go from there.

Do some google plenty grow with that same soil.

I really think it's just leaf damage from any number of things. The plants look fine, if maybe slightly overfed. Keep on truckin'!

How can it be over fed when he hasnt fed yet?

OP your gonna get all sorts of crazy answers because people dont even read your post.Do some research then come back with better questions.

I wouldn't call that soil mix not feeding

Organic soil can be hot sometimes. Looking at those tips and the deep green of the leaves, there's plenty of N in there already. I was just trying to keep him from burning his plants. Live and learn.

I did not do that recently. I did that when transplanting a few weeks ago. I have not gave any nutrients (Kangaroots 1/4 strength once) since I transplanted. Only tap water that’s set out over night.

I will get some epsom salt for a foliar spray right before she goes to bed tonight.

Im thinking it has to be some sort of nutrient def (likely mg thanks to myke) as the bottoms leaves showed this coloring first. Got more yellow and then brown. And it’s now moving up he plant, albeit slowly.

I will do the foliar spray and see how she responds.

Not sure what happened overnight but the plant looked worse this morning. I will have to wait a few days to see if the foliar spray actually worked or not. I did 1/2 teaspoon to gal and misted the entire plant right before lights went out.
I wonder if I do have pH issues going on.
Hoping to save this girl! I moved her outside today for a little morning sun as it will be 77degF and sunny. Hopefully that’ll spark some good vibes into her too

Thats the thing with plants,try one thing see if it improves.If not try something else.Youll get it.

I spray my buds 1-2 times a week with epsom and afew drops of armour Si.Theres a fella in the organic section that led me onto this.Helps with flavor and bud development.Sure seems to work well.
Cant remember the ingredient in Si but its what I have and it was just sitting on the shelf anyway.

What’s your amount of Espom to water for your foliar spray? Also for the armour si?

Pinch per 500ml MG. And 4 drops Si. Careful with the Si. Strong shit burn the leaves. Less then what the bottle says for Si
