Brown Spots on Leaves W. Pics
- Thread starter Illadelph
- Start date
Looks a lot like calcium...... need more information though can you fill this out please? Also take a picture of the plant that is affected and shows it on the plant, i know you said top... but sometimes there is miscommunication as to where it is affected.

What is the current Air Flow? 230 CFM In, unknown out (bathroom exhaust fan)
Is the fan blowing directly at plants? sort of
Is your water HARD or SOFT? dunno, 275ppms Maybe hard but not too hard. My house has a water softener from the previous occupants but its not hooked up.
What water are you using? Tap
Has plant been recently pruned, cloned off of or pinched NO, but it was pruned right before the syndrome occured
Have any pest chemicals been used? no
Are plant's infected with pest's no
the problem stopped progressing shortly after I started this thread, I thought it was nute burn because it happened shortly after I did a res change and removed some fan leaves to let light in to the lower buds. I'm using tap water so i thought that my Cal/mag/iron was taken care of, i have some of that calmag thought if its still nessisiary, let me know, because i'd like to have that info for my next cycle. Is cal mag still nessisary with tap water?

It won't make you feel ANY better but I am having the exact same problem, I think, Illadelph. In fact, I just started a thread tonight on what appears to be the same symptoms. My plants are also in a DWC system (14 hole tray on top of two reservoirs that continually circulate 25 gallons of nutes). I am also on city water and have been thinking calcium or magnesium but resisting because it's urban tap water and they should be covered. (There is a lot of salt in the water, due to road salt in the city reservoirs...I don't know if that can cause a lock out or not.
I'm using PBP Grow and Liquid Karma. My plants are only 2 1/2 weeks under 12/12 and I just switched the nute solution. I've been feeding them less than the recommended amount because I also thought it might have been nute burn. In part because the affected leaves are curling under and because the ppm seems to be rising (along with the pH...I don't let it get over 5.9, however). My lower and middle leaves are affected.
SO...I'll be following this carefully. Very carefully.

From here it sure looks and reads like its time to just chop this run illadelph.
You've been clearing them for a week & a half so at this point they're only going to decline, while being exposed to a high risk of developing bud rot in those chunky colas. It can happen overnight man.

I'm having same issues with this strain as is my buddy whom I got my original cuts from. In any one grow cycle its the only strain that develops this brown spot type symptom I think there might be a genetic issue at play here I to thought calcium or mag but my other 4 strains don't show this at all I seem to see quite a few people with similar prob with the ES . Anyone had a chance to Email DR green thumb to see if there is a known issue and possible solution to this . It does not really seem to affect growth budding or output/quality but it is annoying not being able to find what the cause is. I'm using EBB N flow system 2 1000,s HPS and GH nutes .
any new news would be great.
Thank all
one more thing I am starting with RO and using aggressive growth formula
also my Buddie up north is using well water and hes at 100 ppm to start before adding nutes we were thinking since we both are starting with almost perfect water this strain may like more cal/mag than other strains and the straight nute solution is not providing enough as I said before it's only happening to this strain . Ive been using GH for almost 20 years and never have had an issue like this.

10K, You really think so? Its been like 3 weeks since the syndrome stopped spreading. My humidity isn't that bad. I was gunna let em finish completely. Scary thought though about the bud rot.
Maybe it is cal mag like some of you suggested. Comforting to know i'm not the only one having this problem. Ya, I originally thought cal mag, or that this strain is very nute sensitive.
Zoom, in regards to contacting green thumb, i've done it before when an order of mine took like 6 weeks to arrive, he was a huge dick and hung up on me. Hope we can figure this out beause i plan on growing this strain more in the future.
