What Do You Think Is Wrong With These Plants?

Yeah I think so.... did it start with it only on the edges and then get worse? are the very tips burnt? I had this a week ago or something on one of my plants. I just flushed her and now shes back on the nutes. The affected leaves don't recover though... :( Its either this or Magnesium deficiancy maybe. If its that do the epsom salts with nutes. Hope i helped. I have been growing for a year now so im still new to it all... :)

I'm not too sure how it started, I've been away for a few days and came back to them like this. Do you think its from too much or not enough nutrients?

check your soil ph. How long have they grown in that pot? after a while fertilizer salts can build up in soil and cause ph lockout and all kinds of problems, like stopping the plant from absorbing nutrients, causing defeciencies and the fact it is not properly absorbing nutes the levels get higher and burn the plants root system when you add more nutes trying to fix the def.
I'm not sure if thats the case here, you didnt give enough info to tell that, it could just be from normal overfeeding.

So they have been in these soil pots for about 8 weeks and are about 7 weeks into flowering I started using new nutes and mistook one of them for a flowering nutrient so I added a small amount of the flowering nutrient I was normally using. Do you think I haven't been using enough of the flowing nutrient so they are deficient in phosphorus? The new nutes were voodoo juice, B-52, and pro-tek? I'm not sure on the name of the last one but thats the one I mistook (I have them in water bottles from a friend) and for the flowering nute I am using Canna Terra Flores. I've only been using about 4-5 ml of the Terra Flores for the past 2-3 weeks compared to the recommended 9 ml.

So do you guys think it is deficient in phosphorus or do you think I overloaded it with one of those other three nutes?

p.s. do any of you guys know when I should start using Overdrive?

i'm sorry to jump on your thread but i'm having the same problem.......bottom leaves are almost yellow and the top leaves have brown spot in the middle of them and the tips look reddish brown as well.... I'm using nova bloom, floralious, liquid kool bloom, and pineapple rush. The plants go through a gal of nutes in two days so i thought i was over feeding them bygiving them nutes that much so i flushed with nothing but ph bal. water and it seems to hav gotten worst. I'm 5 weeks into flowering and the buds are coming along nice. I dont want my plant to die this close to harvest. should i go back to feeding them every two days??? any info would be appreciated!!!!!
check my thread so you can follow please

First off, let me preface by saying it looks like Phos tie up to me, not neccesarily the only thing that could cause those symptoms..
That being said, alot of variables, there could be a nute lock due to ph, could be an over abundance of a micro stops the uptake of another nute. Bout all I can tell ya for sure is that at this point, IF I WERE YOU, I would probably flush the chit outta her and start off by just feeding her a basic bloom fert until she starts showing improvements, then maybe start adding the boosters and enhancers. Good Luck with it

Hey there antoine bender , I tried following your link but couldnt find these pics there I'm sure they probably are, but I couldnt find em. Your problem is different than B2k's, Yours are mostely browning of the tips and margins where his progressed through to a total necrosis of the leaf. Yours appears to me to be a magnesium defficiency. Its an easy one to tell because of the dark green veins with the lighter yellowing of the rest of the area and the burnt tips. Your 4th pic shows its classic.

Hope it helps

You overloaded the shit out of it. To me it looks like you overdid the ProTekt as a OD with that looks like salt water was dumped on the plant. I know.

OVERDRIVE???? Yeah, just what they need, more shit dumped on them.

Think maybe they could recover a bit first?
