Hello, all!
I'll start off saying I may be a first time grower, but I'm not a first time toker! :D
I've recently been having a few health issues and have now been diagnosed with Crohn's Disease. I have been toking a few years, roughly 6-7 I think. I always found that while I was high, I would feel much better. I would gain my appetite, the stomach cramps would ease, the acid reflux would settle and the general aching in my stomach would seem to cease for a considerable amount of time. I always assumed what I had was either IBS or something similar. Now I have been diagnosed, it all makes sense as to why Mary Jane provides me some actual medical benefits (in my eyes, anyway!)
So, since money is a tough thing to come by these days and I find it difficult to do pretty much anything without Bud due to pain/upset stomachs/vomiting, I have decided to start my own, small, personal grow up.
I'm 4 weeks from seed (planted on the 11th of October, 2 weeks into Veg) and growing good! (from what I can tell...)
Though, I've been having a few issues which is what lead me to this wonderful forum. 2 days ago I opened my growdrobe to give my single Northern Lights plant a feed before lights off (currently on 18-6.) I peeked my head in and something caught my eye. Weird yellow spots on the older fan leaves that are ringed with a thickish brown circle. I thought it could have been a nutrient problem so I lowered my Nute dosage from 1.5ml p/Litre of both Canna Coco A+B down to 1ml p/Litre of the both then pH'd the water with pH Down to 5.9, the pH I have been using through this entire grow so far. I have researched into it and from what I have read, I can only find this being linked to either Fungus Gnats, MG def/Some other Def(s), or Leaf Septoria, though the plant isn't showing any other symptoms apart from the spots and a couple tiny brown tips on the fan leaves, no more than about 2mm though. I am really lost for what to do, I am trying the potato test to see if there are Gnat larvae in my Coir but nothing so far... Perhaps I should increase my pH a little high to 6.2 or so now the plant is getting older? You can tell this is my first time.... *facepalm*
I think it could be a Gnat issue since I have seen a couple black gnats inside my growdrobe over the last few weeks, but only a couple.... 2? maybe 3 in 2-3 weeks?...
All answers are appreciated!
