Possible Light Burn?

What do you guys think this is?

She was a little close to my 85w CFL in my veg area but I am not sure if this is light burn or...?

Light burn from cfl? Noo, nooo...

only time iv gotten light burn from cfl was when the bulb was touching the leaves. if your more then a couple inches away, then its deff not light burn.

Soooo.....

Any other suggestions on what it might be?

give more details on your watering, (frequency, nutes, ect..) looks like it could be a calcium deficiency.

100% for sure not light burn, could be lack of cal/mag. tell us what type of soil, nutes, etc. like OneSickGrow said.

Thanks for the replies guys.

My base is an organic potting soil from Sri Lanka that is mainly bark, leaf mulch and peat moss. I add dolomite lime, chicken manure and worm casting. I also feed with fish emulsion and molasses every 10-15 days. I mix in my dehydrated egg shell and banana peel dust as well.

looks like the same issue i was having...i would check your ph mine was to "high" (lol no pun intended)

whats ur water source? If its RO the Ph will need adjusting, and it will need calmag just buffer the nutes the filter pulls out with the nasties... (my RO filter gives me 30ppm water @ 8+ Ph.... so I add calmag+ to 150ppm and drop Ph to 6.5 for my dirt, and 5.8 for my hydro)

My R/O water is 7.

Dolomite Lime should buffer it a bit?

I am all for the organic route... but that just sounds like a clusterfuck waiting to happen...

Happy Frog and Botanicare PBP if you wanna stay mainly organic... no need for the chicken shit, banana peel dust, and the Dalai Lama's secret soil sauce...

Have you used this soil and feed regiment you are on before?

The red letters..... Missing calcium........ My guess!!

That's what I was thinking as well but I use dolomite lime in my mix.

TheYokel, My "Dalai Lama's secret soil sauce" is doing great with my other two strains I am growing. Is why I am confused.

I know but using ingredients that you don't know the ratios or strengths of can lead to confusion.

Different strains like different things, and when you know how much of an ingredient you are giving it, it's much easier to adjust.

Thanks again everyone for your replies.

My conclusion is that I used too much dolomite lime.
