Hey everybody,
I'm here looking for some help about an ongoing issue I've had effect 3 of my plants now on a regular basis.
They develop rust/dark coloured spots on lower leaves and slowly fade to yellow starting at the tips. It also has ended up with some dried up tips of leaves that I ended up cutting off. I originally thought this was a calmag issue but I've been supplementing 6ml of calmag per gallon of RO water which to my understanding is more then adequate, this failed to allevate the symptoms.
I then thought perhaps it was a potassium excess because I had given my plants 1/2 ml - 1ml tiger bloom from the fox farm trio, but I've stopped giving that and the problem continues. I'm really at a loss as to what is causing this problem. Any help is really appreciated.
I'm considering increasing the ph of my next watering to 6.2 to help the absorption of calicium.
Please see the pictures for clearly idea.
Grow Details: They have been fed no higher then 600 ppm feedings. PH of water has been kept inbetween 5.8 and 6.0. The nutrients have been calmag, bio root, fox farm trio and molasses in small amounts 1ml per gallon. The plants are in 5 gallon pots with pro mix hp with approximately 15% extra perlite mixed in. Runoff of the plants ph has been between 6.0-6.2. They are being grown in a 4x4x6 tent with a 1000 watt bulb with 440 CFM and carbon filter. temperatures vary between 70F lights off and 84F lights on. The light is approximately 24 inches away from the plants.
Any information I've missed or you need please don't hesistate to ask.
Please help me fix my plants
Thanks in advance,
