Hi all, this is my SFV blue chem grow week 5 of flowering that is struggling from some nutrient imbalance.

Some leaves are turning reddish and lower fan leaves are getting paler.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Is it getting cold where the plant is when the lights are off?(like below 65f) That's the first thing I thought when I saw it. Reminded me of outdoor plants after the first few cold fall nights.

Good call, the minimum temp reading that i have is 60F. Is this too cold?

It may slow things down some, and affect bud size a little. But that's only if other conditions are out of whack. What's the high temp when the lights are on? What's the humidity % during lights on?

If your lights on temps are around 70f, 50%-60% humidity will serve you well, and the plants should perform as normal. Even with temps swinging down to 60f during lights out.

hello,

it's drawing nutrients out of the leaves, leaving the natural pigmentation,

although it looks probably too early in flower for it to be running out of nutrients, so i would consider upping what you are giving it.

> pretty though !

During the day max temp reaches about 80F and humidity near the top of canopy is around 10% and ~40% near the top of the pot.

I've also switched to MarsHydro LEDs from HPS recently and i've read that they can cause the leafs to take on a red pigmentation.
