I need the experts opinions

Whats going on. I noticed these discolorations on the lowest set of fan leaves. I assume it is a nutrient deficiancy but the discoloration isnt on any other part of the plant. Can someone let me know whats going on with her. btw I am using Pure Blend Pro Grow nutes. Thanks

Kind of looks like a N defficiency. Hard to tell from pic's alone. How often have you been watering it?

 

[mean mr.mustard]

It isn't a nitrogen deficiency, it's a potassium deficiency. What is your pH?

 

[GlaZed420]

ok so if its a potassium def. then what can i do for it organiclly

You've got nute burn, I'll betchya.......
What's your feeding schedule with the PBPG been like & what kind of soil are you using?
Most likely you can straighten things out by giving plain water the next few waterings.............though it may seem to get a bit worse before it abates.
Eventually, the plants will use up the extra nutes & also water them real good each time so that it comes out the bottom (that'll remove some).
Doesn't look real, real bad right at the moment.

Burn

Burn

nuet burn or impropper chemistry leaving some nuets to active and others locked up Pax

....lots of different "opinions"....ha ha

and here's mine........most deficiencies are not solitary, esp with soil grows....more often than not it is a combination of several minor and major nutrients that are either locked out or in short supply

providing the solution you are watering is in the range of low to mid sixes on the pH scale...it's most probable ( from the limited info you gave us, that is) that it's time to feed them

I'd suggest you top dress with a half inch loose mulch of organic nutrients in each pot and water it in.....use 4 or 5 different types (mostly compost & worm castings, a small amount of several types of aged manures, blood and bone etc and a pinch of dolimite lime) ..this will naturally supply all the nutrients your plants are beginning to lack right now and you should see a marked improvement within several days.

another way is to make a tea from the above ingredients, dilute, pH adjust and water in

and another way is to buy a bottle of grow ferts with high to medium levels of N, and low to medium levels of P and K that also includes the minor nutrients esp Mg.

let us know how whe they green up and "take off"...happy growing!

If it was burn then why is it so pale?

 

[marimbas]

its not a burn, the leafs would twist a bit, thats always.

This is a defficiency. You need to add some nutes in that pot. also burns dosnt look whot those pale colors, a nute burn looks greyish, and you can see the plant really hurt. Also the colour of the whole plant is much greener. And the leafes twist.

This looks like the very beginnings of a nutrient deficiency, probably caused by lockout. This has happened to me twice--one time it was a magnesium deficiency (and that's what your plants appear to be deficient in) and another time it was a lack of iron. Both times, I corrected it by watering with pH-adjusted water--it should be 6.0-6.5. This corrected the problem within a few days.

FLUSH FLUSH FLUSH with three times the soil and lets try to get whats locking up out!!
i agree its not nute burn it does not look like that. (Noobs)
whats the ph? temps in room?
And lets Get more info on your routen nextime. godluck

There ya go!! Here's your solution..........probably over fert'ed (nute burn, whatever ya want to call it). Gotta get the excess out. Then take it easy & careful.

The temps in the room are 78-80F and 45-51% RH, i broke my pH so im not sure what my pH is. Would flushing for sure do the trick?

its pretty much just as stated above. It will go away quicker than you think if you just take it easy.
Try adding small amounts of regular water, if it worsens its ph, adjust and
It will go away. You may also have added too much water/nutrients at one time and caused the plant to overfeed or underfeed due to the wrong ph. Plants are easy tp grow and in vegatative stage and do need suppliments, but a new grower always wants to add everything Blood meal, bone meal, Lime, dolimite, Pureblend overdoing all these things that are more for the flower production time. A plant that small Id start with maybe a tblsp per gal of High 5 low 6 ph balanced water in some cheap Potting Soil Label Potting Soil, Plain, but usually more effective in vegetative/growth stages and not necissarily use the whole gallon of nutes everytime you water. Adjust nute levels to what you think your plant can take. I dont go by defficiences usually but then again I get them rarely. Not all plants can take ph jumps and drops and massive amounts of nutrients esp at that size. Not saying all cant, but a lot of strains are nute finicky.mm Let your plant tell you when its hungry and good way I usually tell is let the soil get almost dry and wait till your leaves start to droop almost , this is a short time window maybe 3-6 hours, water them, within a 5-30 mins you should see your leaves pop back up again. this will let you know your roots are taking in nutes. Ph is usually the precursor to nute burns, since the plant takes up different nutes at different phs and stops absorbing nutes at certain phs, so if your ph is too high then a lot of nutes wont be absorbed in to the plant cause nute/ph defficiences, and the same goes for if the ph is too low.

Hope that helps some and good growing, atleast its in veg stage and not flowering stage.
