Hi Folks,

I am starting week 9 today and I have some concern for a change in one of my plants. The several of the leaves are showing some yellowing blotches as well as some dark areas. I'm not sure what's going on. I did lower the nutes a bit per the directions. Here are some other things that I log some of which I understand and some not so much.

Using Tap water with the following readings after standing 24 hours:
pH=8.7 - ppm=293 - us/cm=623

After nutes added and pH adjusted
pH=6.5 - ppm=406 - us/cm=863 - VPD=1.3 (average)

I would like to identify the issue but it seems there is more then one going on. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Have you been adding calcium? Just a wild guess! Some indoor grower that knows what he is talking about will come by eventually!

The only thing I add are pH Down and the nutes by Vivosun Part A 4-0-1 and Part B 1-4-2 premixed separately and then mixed in equal amounts. I should also add that I'm not seeing this effect on Plant 1 .

My first observation. It doesn't seem very bright.
I think my tent is like 3 times that bright. Unless it's a bad pick. What are you packing !?

It's in one of her posts. and your light is bright cause you have only one plant in it and it's looking down at the plant in your pics. This one has many plants and is a forward photo. It's a 200watt light in a 3x3x6 tent they have. No comparison to yours.

All my pictures have been taken with the grow light off. When on it tends to blur a bit and washout color detail. With the grow light on attached. Light is 200w.

I disagree. I've had more than 1 plant, and it's still bright. 200 watts wouldn't be enough for my plant. Not enough energy. Just my opinion. I'll shut up now !

You didn’t think you were gonna get through this grow with no bumps in the road did you! Not a chance! We’ll get some brilliant minds on it! Looks like you have probably three or four weeks To go! So I don’t think you’re close enough to the end to ignore it! Hang in there! Start looking at pictures of leaves on Google! L O L

To tell you the truth I didn't expect to get through the grow, period. I thought sure I would have killed them long ago. I am surprise and amazed at the progress, lots of reading but mostly I would say dumb luck, no doubt. The plants have been very forgiving.
