Bottom Branches light green drying

jacklambert58 · #1 (**permalink**) 07-22-2009, 07:57 AM

Hydro Grow, Ph 5.8-6.2, lights on 85 degree rh 40%, lights off 67 degrees rh 70%, Gh nutes being used as directed. 16 days into flower.

Overall things are good but I noticed 2 days ago that 3 bottom branches leaves were yellowing and top of branches (buds) shriveled up and died. Does not seem to be sreading. I would just cut off branches but they a pretty thick and I dont want to put plant into shock.

I was thinking it might be a sulfur def but nutes have plenty of sufur. So can this be a root ailment or is it just the branches are not getting enough light and plant is using it for the extra Nitogen. Any help would be appreciated.

Picture shows shriveled and dead branch tops as well as light green pigment all along branches. 2nd pic is top of plants which seem to be good. I just dont want this to spread.

Looking for a little more help. These dying bottom branches are getting worse. Everything checks out. The only thing I cant see are the roots. I did see a water beetle in my hydroton pellets. Could that little bastard be eating my roots

. If you have any idea i would be greatful.

Never seen that b4. I would just cut off all the infected parts and throw them away and see if it spreads.
