Skywalker Mother Plant Issue Week 5

Mother Skywalker 5 weeks into veg. I just started to take single clones from it. This seems to be the only part showing this withering and browning. The top nodes and leaves are not burned so I am not thinking it is heat stress.

I was reading that cold can cause Phosphorus lockout which this looks most comparable to in pictures I am seeing. There were about two nodes at the very bottom that did yellow and were removed. With no fan running the box it is in stays around 80 degrees and 50-60 humidity. At night the room it is in gets to about 60 and I could see with the intake fan blowing it could be a little colder in the box.

Let me know what you think. :weed:

I am using Happy Frog Soil and Humboldt Micro, Grow, Bloom nutes. I could see that being a possibility as well... I have not fed this week as much I have but was a little hesitant what to hit it with while I started to take the clones from it.

it seems like a combo of inadequate light and low temps. if i remember correctly night temps shoulndt go below 65. Not sure what Light u have but it looks like a single tube flouro. Past 3 weeks even for 1 plant that is not sufficient IMHO. Your plant loks stressed as hell man. Throw some more light on there...

There are 4 T5's on it. Seems to have worked just fine for previous plants. Purple D next to it is doing just fine.

Switched over another warm to cool light tube in the mother box. Purple D looks healthy as can be.... Mother Skywalker now seems to be showing beginning stages of this on other leaves now. So I am pretty confident I am not lacking light. The lights run during the night and I continued to check and never saw it drop below 75 tho the intake fan breeze was cooler. So temp I think is all set.

The more I read there is not any purple in the leaves so kind of leans more towards a Potassium deficiency. I am really hoping that taking two clones last week didn't overstress her or pass disease (tho work area was cleaned space)

Is it possible to cause an embolism in the plant itself from where the clone was taken???

whoa whoa not all at once... haha.

soil tester kit looks to show a deficiency with.......... phosphorus. Nitrogen and Potash looks good. I am going to work in a small amount of bat guano fertilizer in a watering here soon.
