Revegged Plants With Leaf Spots

[Monster762]

you can do your own testing if your supplier doesnt, go to any marine aquarium store or website and you can purchase a Lamottes or others test kit. But be warned they can get pricey. I used to do live reef aquariums and had to have these kits. To kiss it you can forgo that and use RO and supp your calmag as required.

Ok I don’t have a system for ro. But I think the Walmart sells ro purified water for like 50 cent a gallon but have to take bottles with me. It’s a machine. I’ll check into it. It may be purified some other way.

I'm just confused as hell...do you consider your mix soil or soiless because you're ph should ideally be 6.8 for soil. I float between 6.5-7 depending on what's going on where I'm testing.

I guess technically it’s soilless I think. It’s peat moss perelite desert sand and little worm castings.

According to your chart I should be ok. It’s at 6.8-7.0. But last run 6.2 was almost flawless. Last run few weeks in flower. Before the spotting showed everything looked so healthy. Then I flushed nute buildup n a day after flush spots everywhere.

 

[Monster762]

Then after I flushed in last flower. It really does seem like the tap water might be part of it. Cause it was perfect almost then I flushed once mid flower last grow. Afraid of nute buildup. They were eating every day like hogs. So I flushed. Then spots everywhere. And the leaves still never yellowed at pure amber trichs. I ran a 15 gal to 5 gal flush and fed clean water over 2 weeks. Leaves never died off. Miracle grow was feeding still. The time release. But the added tap water was right before signs last grow. This one it just slowly came the entire grow. At first I figured the changes of reveg maybe. And that plants wanted to bloom not veg. That’s why I gave the pk lightly. And went 12/12. But it’s worse now. Steady downhill. Only thing same now as last flower is the water. So maybe there’s something there. I’m going to get ro or purified water n try running it for a week. See what happens. Thanks

Ok this is exactly what I used for veg

 

[Monster762]

I used this twice at the beginning and once when I hit switch to 12/12 AN tarantula. Supposedly beneficial bacterias n microbes.

 

[Monster762]

Rhino skin (silica) was used with calimagic for a foliar 2-3 times and was also added to soil or peatmoss actually twice.

 

[Monster762]

And the pk boost I used 1/8 tsp instead of 1/2 tsp as directed. One time.

If any of these raise flags let me know. Other than that water has to be the problem.

While it's not broke, don't fix it. It looks like your flush has upset your plant a lot. I can't help you with all the other stuff your feeding your plants, because I have never used any of it, but if I were you, I would leave things to settle down, they more stuff you chuck at your plants when you have a problem, the more complicated you can make the problem. So go back to what your were doing before the flush, and see if the plants pick up, sounds like your were doing fine until the flush.

Ok thanks. I’m going to change water source. Today the leaves that looked bad fell off when touching them. Rest of leaves and new growth looks ok. And the flowers are starting.

Your plants look like they have around 3 weeks left to go, at this point I would wing it, stick to what got you this far, and just go steady with the additives or cut them out altogether, because if you change some thing now, it may take the rest of your flower period to sort it out, if you find the problem in time.

No the pics with buds are last grow. These plants are just now showing flowers. 8-9 weeks to go. The bud pics are when it started on the last grow. Which was about 5 weeks in flower. And flushing then made it worse too.

 

[Monster762]

I wish it was only 3 weeks left. I wouldn’t be as worried.

 

[Monster762]

Not 100% yet but I think I was starving the plants. I was running low numbers trying not to build up lots of nutes. Flushing made worse. I decided since I tried calmag n all with no luck Id just go with it. I gave them a full strength veg fertilizer with a full strength of bloom fertilizer. They are getting better color and perking up good. Flowers are showing clear now. All female. 4 were clones so no surprise there really. The damage isn’t going away I think those leaves are toast but everything else looking good. The green isn’t as pale anymore either. Waiting for stretch to start so I can start aiming these tops where I want em. Trying to beat my last grow which wasn’t too bad for a first run.

Feed me...

Kiss.

 

[Monster762]

Ok I think they are getting better. Damaged leaves aren’t going to fix but moving forward. I fed the boost n all stated above then molasses and microbes. One clone burned from the nutes but still hanging on. Rest are looking a lot better. Trying to keep an even canopy in the ghetto jungle believe it or not the sour d is stinking far more than the gc did last run. Barely in flower and it smacks me in the face when I open the room up. I guess I’m going to keep progress through flower on here instead of a new thread. Strip lights are ugly but it’s hard to get anything to stick to walls. I wipe down walls with neem oil regularly. No bugs. The strips are 660nm red 5-1 red to blue ratio with 3000k and 6400k t5s staggered 10 bulbs total (6 are 3000k 4 are 6400k) and 600w led with uv and ir. Lights are up a little high but should stretch soon. Once stretch slows I’ll move everything closer.
Just cramming all my old lighting in there. New lights won’t fit in that room. Thought of running vertical but then decided not to. Crammed enough.

 

[Monster762]

Ok possible issue. Hope someone sees it here so I don’t need to go start new thread. Today I checked soil moisture while doing it I noticed very tiny white bugs jumping around. I tried to take pic at 100x the bastards are too fast. I’ve googled n got springtails and thrips as result. Any ideas? Plants don’t look real bad but I’ve been consistently fighting leaf spots. Now a lower beach has the skin peeled off of it. Any input. Appreciated. Should I start the war? Starting week 2 of 12/12.

 

[Monster762]

I’ve been using neem on walls but trying not to put anything in soil or on buds. Ideas on what the big is and best options to rid it. Or is it beneficial. I fed microbes and sugars but I don’t think it’s microbes cause I couldn’t see them in the solution they came in. I can see these just barely. Look littl long like a pincher bug shape but real small n white. N jump all over. Can’t get one under the scope. Thanks again for any input.

 

[Monster762]

Looking at pics they look like springtails. Nothing flying. No gnats for sure. Supposedly springtails harmless??? I’m ready to wage war before it’s too late.
