SHes in Hydrafiber/Soil mix supposed to feed for 4 months. I have a Mars Hydro FC-E 150 and a cheap reddish/purple light off eBay that I use every now and then at the end of light cycles. It is supposed to be 300 Watts but I don't think so because the ppfd is only in the 500 range. Light distance is about 24 inches. She is tied down for better air flow and light penetrationPlant needs food it will use up everything it has stored up just to survive
In flower less N more P K
What soil are they in ?
Light and distance from plant
She looks starved
I am thinking the 'mixture of a bunch of nutes' a month ago was too much for them (it will take a week to show up if you are in soil) i had a plant last year which was doing great into flower and i added 4ml of PK 14/15 over 2 waterings and it just stopped, locked out and the leaves did the same thing.I have a hulkberry going into late flowering . I noticed leaf tips yellowing and turning black and some dieing altogether. I have fed a mixture of a bunch of nutrients one time maybe a month ago. I am trying to use as less as possible but if this is happening due to lack of nutrients I would please like someone to tell me which ones are showing if any.
Yeah I think that is what is going on . Will flushing with correct PH do anything beneficial?Your soil already was packed with nutrients then you put a mix of stuff in on top
I’m no expert but I would say you probably messed up ph
Let get smart people on this

What do you think ?
How long did it take for signs to appear ? It has been well over a month since I did this.I am thinking the 'mixture of a bunch of nutes' a month ago was too much for them (it will take a week to show up if you are in soil) i had a plant last year which was doing great into flower and i added 4ml of PK 14/15 over 2 waterings and it just stopped, locked out and the leaves did the same thing.
Should I just harvest early hope for the best and start over before anything major sets in? I somewhat don't like the scent of this strand as it isOk ensure you understand the organic nature of that soil is compromised and after the flush you will need to balance remaining nutrients with what the plant needs. .
This will be tough without lots of experience in plant deficiencies and lockouts.
While I do see excess nutrient issues, I believe you should still run this grow out to maturity. For now, use water and water to run-off ... but lets not flush the plants. 10% - 15% run-off should be sufficientYour soil already was packed with nutrients then you put a mix of stuff in on top

I appreciate your input. I'll just let it go and see what happens. Do you think she needs anything at all just water ?

To answer your question about the color changes, some of it is normal as you approach senescence with your grow. The rest of it is your plants have been over-fed. Things don't look horrible though. Keep up the good work and run it out to the end. Next grow, leave out the hydrofiber. It holds moisture too long in soil in my opinional
Your plants would benefit from a more complete dry-back. I add 20% perlite to my soil mixes because I want quick dry-back and 3-4 day water cycles.I appreciate your input.

The Mars Hydro FC-E 150 is 150W, usually the watts are in the name of the models.SHes in Hydrafiber/Soil mix supposed to feed for 4 months.

Your PH is very very dangerously low. Get it to 6,5 asap.This is what my soil meter reads if this helps any
Heat gets up to 93 sometimes with the Mars Hydro on brightest setting. I have a air purifier right next to the plant blowing air under canopy and a big fan blowing at the lights and above canopy24 inches for that light is way too far away for my taste. I would be aiming for 1000+ umols in the middle for mid-late flower, 14" or 16" should be fine, its only a 150W light and I use them too, unless the heat is a problem.
The airflow helps but the high temps aren't ideal. I'm not sure how much control you have over those temps though using a closet as your grow space. Look for ways to lower the daytime temps without compromising the amount of light (if there is a way, you might be stuck with what you have).Heat gets up to 93 sometimes with the Mars Hydro on brightest setting.
