So I have not been feeding nutes other than worm castings. Now that its in flowering, I know it will demand more nutrients. I did a slurry test and my pHs came back at 5.7-5.8 and the lower growth on my plants has a bit of these brown spots and some have burnt tips. Does this mean I have a deficiency or lockout? I have Fox farm pH up and cal-mag I am just not sure how to apply to remedy the situation. I also have AN Big Bud for flowering. Need advicethey flower when they build up enough of some hormone. inside we force that with darkness, and we figured that 12 hrs was plenty. outside the sun helps in more ways than light. so there is no exact switch. if indoors we gradually turned the light down some would flower before others too.
most important thing is to watch the plants and they will tell you whats what.
I am in Coastal Virginia. Not sure if you saw my earlier reply but I am experiencing what I believe to be nutrient issues and could use some advice.The strain your running decided to start to flower a good thing bc you still have at least a month and a half to go depending on were u live.
I'm not an expert but that appears to be calcium deficiency from my understanding. Hope somebody with more experience chimes in.So I have not been feeding nutes other than worm castings.

Seeds germinated in April been in veg since mid may. Fox farm ocean forest soil. 7 gallon fabric pots, watered when i would feel the top inch or so of soil get dry. No nutrients whatsoever except 2 dressings of worm castings. Slurry tested the soil yesterday and all came back in the 5.7-5.8 range, ppms were all in the 250 range. Noticed these spots about 2 weeks ago. Picked up cal mag and ph up for the soil but have not used them yet.are you in soil? which?
off the bat, and with no info, id guess chronic underwatering. but just because i saw a thread about a week ago and the leaf looked like this and Aquaman said that. so I could be totally off and not be seeing what he saw.
So are you saying overwatering is likely my problem? And yes lol I just wasnt clear on the distinction between seedling and vegYour soil not only doesnt need ph'd, it does nothing good for you and might be bad. The soil has stuff that makes the water somewhere between 6.3 and 6.8. no matter what you do (there are ways, but it won't grow pot). If you add stuff, you get stuff + stuff...
On watering, think gravity. The water goes down. In the easiest way it can. So it hangs out at the bottom. It won't take long for the top half to dry, but the bottom, not so much. So it sits there and you add. At some point you will say "it's not drying". You will have a pond down where the roots hang out and they drown. And even the top won't dry then.
If the seed germinated in April and was in veg in may... What were they between April and may? (Hint, they pop then they veg. At least here, otherwise this thread will be a whole different thing)
Yessuhh, preflower it isThis is a more recent pic of the most damaged leaf. Any thoughts?
