image.jpeg image.jpeg Hey everyone, looked at all the other pics of what this could be and I'm still not sure. Some of the tips look yellow, or burned. Some look like they have holes in them. It's not all the leaves just some . I'm using a mix of black gold moisture supreme, perlite, Promixbx, chicken manure. Is my medium to hot ? This just started a week ago after feeding them for the first time FF grow big or whatever it's called . I used the recommended amount. So is this nute burn? Bugs ? Cal-mag deficiency? The last water which was two days ago I just used water . The ph on the water I used was 6.5. so should I just use water from now on for a little while ? Or add cal-mag on next watering . And not add any ffgb anymore at all? They are a month old and are about 2 feet tall. Other than this they look good I think . Any suggestions from some pros.

It looks like a nute deficiency or burn of some sort, im thinking nitrogen if it's a def. I had leaves look light green like that and look like they have bite marks from bugs on the left and right tips of new growth. It stopped after I corrected. It was an easy fix.

I say dont ever use the nutes at full dose that the directions call for, the manufacturer wants you to burn thru their product, I start with 1/4 the nute recipee, and when I use promix I dont give them anything but water for the first month, than let the plant tell you what it needs!

Peace

I would say do that with all store bought soil! I love to use pro mix because it is easy to flush out if you wind up with to many ppm's or to low or high ph level, I dont know what it is but my clones seem to suffer when I put them in the promix with nutes imediatly! some of the lady's will tell you quicker than others that they are missing some thing!

I water with a pitchure, I keep a 30 gallon tank mixed up with a couple of air stones in it, my well water tends to jump up and down on the ph for at least a week in my res, so I always make sure I have a full res and check it every day, I have to ph up and down for at least a wk and then it steady's out! never over water, the way I check if I need water is by lifting the pot untill it gets light and then I water, I usualy give it enough so I can take a reading of it coming out, the closer you get to crop time the more water they will need!

Im going to be using the kiss method next time around, you can get every thing you need from most home and garden stores, kiss = keep it simple stupid!

Best of Luck!

Peace
