Hi people
Last couple of days some of the fan leaves have turned this sort of colour I am wondering if it could be lack of nutrient but I am following the feed guide to the letter. Any feed back would be great. Thanks in advance.

Does your guide include Calcium and Magnesium?

Hands up though I haven't been doing the beneficial adds as I have a real good soil so thought it would have enough in there. Do you think that could be the problem?

Yeh looks like your plants not uptaking calcium and or magnesium. Either pH or specific nutes is my guess.

how about a look at the whole plant,and give some more info.Problems are not usually isolated to just one leaf,its normally the result of a bigger issue,you could be feeding your plant with goat piss for all we know.

OK so the p.h is always around 5.5 Temps are 80-85 down to 70 when lights off. I have them in a quality soil (the name escapes me) with bat pellets. I have been using old Timers nutrients and not been adding anything else at this point as I naively pressured there would be enough goodness in the soil. Best pics I have of recent.

You might be seeing some salt buildup. I was assuming these were a little younger.

They come from cuttings 1 was a saliva plant but didn't have a name the rest where a Buddha cheese from seed. From what I have found I am looking at about 9 weeks flowering for the cheese.

They look like they are drying up. I *think* that might be salt doing that. Hows your humidity? Salt and low humidity dries 'em up quick. I have one now doing the same thing and I just flushed it. I'm at about week 7 too. Mine is only a 60 day strain so I am just about done.

you plants look generally healthy,you will see fan leaves dieing off in late flower no matter what you do,i wouldnt sweat that too much unless it starts advancing up the plant rapidly.Ph is too low for soil,you should be around 6.5 right now.I must have have missed that.Hopefully a typo

Looks like a mid to late cal issue to me also. I am experiencing the same thing. You need to add some form of cal and mag, its a must if using ro water.

5.5 is too low of ph for soil...although your plants still seem relatively happy....6.6-6.8 for soil....5.5 ph is for water culture.....
