odd problems

ok. hypetheticle question.
first off....
soil, MG potting soil
soil ph.. was 7 is now 5.8
ferts. mg blom booster at 1/2 strength.. 15,30,15 plus mallasses for Mo.
1000 watt hps
7 weeks old
2nd week of flower.

the bottom leaves are turning yellow while the veins are still green.
the midle leaves are singing at the tips and turning white. the also have brown necrotic spots on them. after a while the brown spots get larger and the leaf cracks in that spot.
The stalks on the tops of the plants are red
and the new growth looks perfect.

I was under the impression that i had a ph lokout and severe Mg deficiency... but... ive corrected my ph and have uped the ferts and given 3 foliar feedinds of 1 quart water to 1/4 tsp od epsom salt... AND IT IS NOT GETTING BETTER. INFACRT THE PROBLEMS ARE PROGRESSING........PLEASE HELP.



i do Not grow or condone the growth of marijuana and i use this website for informational scientific research only.

You overfertilized and now continue to shove even more nutrients down the throat of that plant.

How old is it total? If you say less than 3 months you shouldn't have added any ferts yet at all whatsoever, and certainly no foliar feeding. MG soil is saturated with nutrients and you should never add a thing unless after 3 months it starts to ask for it and you never use molasses until the last two weeks of flowering.

You might as well take all the ferts you have and lock them in a safe you don't know the combination too, so you don't do this again.

mg soil and water are all you needed all along.

Also, unfortunately, there's not a thing you can do to fix it. If you try to flush you will cause the soil to release even more fertilizer. Only time and crossing your fingers might let things work themselves out.

i do understand what u r saying but the plants are huge... and havent shown signs of problems and they have been getting nutes fo over a month. they are about 80 days old. they are between 1.5 to 2.2 feet tall and bushy because they were fim'ed. plus.. red stems and necrotic spots in the center of the leaves is not a sign of burne but deficiency. thank yu for your asvice though

uh, ur ph may be a bit low. like 1.00 too low

i was under th impression that optimal ph was 5.5 to 6.5. was i wrong? as u can tell i am studied but VERY new to this.

and if it is to low, what should i expect?

but but but

You aren't listening...

Overfert and using MOLASSES like i said are things you did wrong. If you have a ph problem, that is why,

Had you used just mg soil and water you would have a healthy plant now, bigger than it is now.

bro soil should be at 6.8 to 7 at all times. the 5.8 and what not are for hydro systems.

dang bro your all edgy.. lol just a ? are you telling him not to use molasses because of how hott is soil is alwready? go ducks!

i adjusted the ph myself. it was not soley my nutes. and i just looked at my origial post and realized i accidentally hit the 5 button insted of the 6. my ph now 6.8. Please do me a favor and stop pushing nut burn down my throught without giving me reason to believe it. what symtoms of the plant would u attribute to nute burne. because All the reaserch i did points to defficiencies of Mg, K, P, Ca, and Mo. Plus mollasses has a nutral ph and is only used to increase micro nutes and minerals.

thanks 4 the ph correction titan. i feel like an A$$. i didnt know that was 4 hydro. but my ph has never been more acidic than 6.4 ish. and that was weeks ago

all good bro, hope you can pull thru, ive been fighting somethin like this my self with some wrhinos, i flushed the heck out of them when someone kept telling me nute burn... end result was a bunch of def plants. do the reading and make up your own mind bro, bless up.

Sorry, I am edgy but not meaning to be rude I am trying to help

I don't know what to tell you. I've grown with mg soil for the last year now. I hated it at first because I tried to use it like normal soil, sorta like you are. I had every problem under the sun like you are. Tried flushing, made things worse. Tried fixing ph, made things worse. And nobody will agree to using molasses more than the last two weeks of flowering.

I'm not some scientist who can pick this all apart and explain why it doesn't work. I only know it doesn't from experience.

You won't be able to do anything to fix it, other than give only water from now on and give it time to work out.

I'm edgy cause I have no weed. I ignored my last crop and spider mites got it.

Sorry again.

no problem bud. no big deal. thanks for the advice. my

course of action will be onl water for the next few weeks and if it is nute burne things should clear up rite? and if it gets much worse its probably deficient. thanks again for the help guyz.
