Brown spots on leaves! To Flush or not to Flush? That is the Question.
ColonelForbin1990started grow question 3y ago
Hello,
Seeing lots of brown spots developing around middle tier leaves. Reddit is telling me I should flush with 15 gallons of water to get rid of salts around the roots. That seems extreme but if that’s the cure I’d like to know more and can I use my tap water (7.1pH 133ppm)?

Looks like they need calcium. I would up the bloom nutes and feed some cal mag. Best of luck the rest of the way.

PH should be around 6.4— that high you can’t absorb all the nutrients—- hence what you are seeing. I never flush, but you can….
Do a couple of water feeds 6.4, a tea feed 6.4, and go back to nutrients at 6.4

Really! a flush?!
To flush what? your feeding is so low, and it is the first week you are giving some.
Your fox farm soil is depleted, and you auto is at peek demand for nutrients, you need to up your feeding.

Purple stems-curling tips leaves point downGuys the sides stems seem really purple!even the central stem..
Why? magnesium deficiency?or genetics?
And that leaves tip pointed down; they are a problem..
Maybe N deficiency?(due the early preflowering for the wrong light cycle) Thanks :)

Leaf issues. More specific questionAsking again but I'll be more specific: I was looking at a closeup view of an overhead pic I took yesterday and noticed some slight tan/brown color along the sides of 1 of the true leaves leaves. I'm wondering why. Nutrient burn? Sulphur deficiency? Damping off? Thoughts?

What to do? Leaves are getting worse.Had some light strain earlier on, but now im leaning toward a deficiency. Been feeding on a low-dose flora series schedule with clean ph water for every other feed. Just had clean water yesterday and nutes 3 days before. Dry out between feeds. Nitrogen? Calmag? Other?

Canna flushThank you so much for the information. I have been using Plagron nutrients for a long time and have never had any major problems. OG is my first to be very sensitive. She went to sleep in the vegetation. It's not working now. Can I do a flush with Canna flush? How I use this? ThxWeek 3

PHI messed up & forgot to PH balance my water before using it. It was 9.4 before I mixed in molasses & formulex. I put 1 gallon in each pot. I realized right after I did that, that I forgot. I tried to fix it by adding a 1/2 gal. To each of just plain 6.1 ph water. What now tho ??

Add CalMag or Manganese? Still slightly discolored and veiny leaves on week 6Calcium or Manganese deficiency? Last week had what I thought was early calcium deficiency. Gave it a dose of CalMag but now not sure if it’s still Calcium or possibly Manganese.
I do mean manganese but I realize it could be a CalMag or Manganese deficiency as well.
