Weird defficiency?

WindblownSquash · Mar 9, 2020

Hey. I watered my plants yesterday and today I saw that my young plant has this weird pattern on some of its leaves. I don’t wanna have to give her a haircut but I might need to prune the leaves.
it’s difficult to see and is actually more visible under blurple light but you guys kinda get butthurt over that so I’ll leave it like that. Please give advice.

Soil, soiless and what nutrients are you running?

Lol, soil. I’m not tryna be a dickhead but I feel like that question was answered with the pic. im just doing the fox farm nutes and I add CalMag and molasses.

Bro definitely sounds like it’s the first time growing Google soilless potting mix and tell me the difference.
Anyways jackass you’ll be fine haha these plants look wonderful and those leafs you’re concerned about will be under your canopy by the time you flower.
Doesn’t look like a Deficiency or toxicity..
Doesn’t seems root bounds, those pots prune to some degree.

give it time cheers

lol I will have to concede. I did look up soilless and it looks similar. Sorry. More specifically. I’m using pretty much a 50/50 mix of FFOF and FFHF with about 30% perlite.

Kind of looks like a pH problem, do you pH your water, and what to?

Ahhhhhh.....All you had to say was you were using fox farms......found your problem

Nah I don’t pH. i can’t really tell which colors are which or whatever. I have trouble reading the results It always seems between 6.5 and 7.5 to me.

Also I have 3 other plants growing under same conditions with minor problems and the ones they do have are not this one

Powertech · Mar 9, 2020

I'm seriously getting a bag a growing one of my next plants in that stuff so I can honestly rag on people that use it lol. Sorry, just hear too many people having problems that use FF

Kidding about fox farms aside, pH is probably your problem. I'd suggest getting a $20 ph digital tester and some calibration solution.

This is a pic of my pH test. If this helps, I recently added kelp to this plant specifically. Could this have caused it?

I’ve ran some many grows with Fox Farm.. I only used OF with a mix of perlite and clay pebbles.
That being said it’s a really refined and reliable soil.. only thing I would suggest you add to your regiment is enzymes.. enzymes helps breaks down the decaying organic materials and debris and turns it into food for your plants and microbes/fungi in the soil.
this will also reduce the likelihood of root diseases..
Watch out for nats when introducing fungi and carbs.. they love that shit.

cheers bro’s

For you ^^^^

next time you water, get a pic of the strip right after you take it, and under regular light. But if that strip was just taken it almost looks like you are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyy low on ph, bit i'm not willing to say that without a pic under normal light

lol nah that strip was fresh. I just pulled it out so you could infer the process. I got the green thumb to make it work under those conditions.

Unless his tap is insanely alkaline the soil should buffer it.

Take a closer look at the lower leaves.
Not easy to see without a large screen for pictures but there is what appears to be a mag issue.
My 1st guess is it needed epsom salt a while ago.

Thank goodness lmfao! Well, if it is hard to tell I would say get a digital tester. Might just grow out of it, i hear that happens a lot with FF as well
