i know my camera sucks and you cant really see the spots but they are there.there is only 1 leaf that has brown spots on it but the rest of the plant looks fine.i woke up this morning and checked the plant and the spots got worse.but still the rest of the plant looks fine.im not giving any nutes yet just water and the ph is in the 5's.i am using the liquid ph testing kit so i cant get a accurate number.but it is in the 5's.also that 1 leaf is turning yellowish in color.does anyone have any clue what might be happening....i hope it doesnt spread through out the whole plant.
so i just read that it could be due to chlorine in the water.but could it also be due to over watering.i wouldnt think it would be due to nutes but at the time im not giving any yet.
If you plan to transfer to a bubble bucket or something, now would be the time to do that and start using 1/4 strength nutrients.
Agree....unless you set out your water for 24 hours, possible chlorine problems Please post again how your adjusting ph...using a ph pen? Calibrated? 5.8 get there......gotta get your water to 5.8 Once again posting from the phone
get it planted then start giving it 1/4 strength nutes. Wait till medium is dry before watering. If your going to soil get ph up to 6.5
ok in this pic you can see the leaf turned brown.but is it normal for the other leaves to be droopy like this i know its still early..
yeah its really early to tell... a little stretch but thats normal some times your camera takes good pictures... its just not focusing well put a sheet of white paper behind the plant and take a pic... make sure to focus on the plant... because i can see divots on the hydroten... i know you can take a better picture of the plant keep the updates coming
If that's tin foil, get rid of it. Tin foil will burn your plant. What type of lights are you using and how close are they? Have you added nutrients yet?
looks like a balloon... cheap mylar... if it is.. thats ok but like bullistic says.. if its tinfoil, get rid of it nice camera skills... nice improvement... your plant looks really good... some drooping is fine... your stressing your plant out moving it and stuff... so a watched clock does not move... check your baby twice a day... and all should be fine nice update
it was tin foil and i got rid of it asap.dont need anything else making her get worse.i appreciate all that you guys are telling me.
hydro stores sell a white plastic shield exactly like what you were trying to do... cover the hydroten
That works, however with something white you not only benefit from light not getting in your res, but also light will reflect back off it. You had the right concept with the tin foil, just wrong material.
i put nutes in it and just now had to dump it and replace it with just water cuase the tips were turning yellowish brown.which i assumed was nute burn
I started using nutrients when mine was smaller then that. Are you sure you didnt have too much nutrients? What I did was mix up 1 gal of nutrient solution as it said on the instructions, then poured it in my bubble bucket and added 3 more gals of pure water. Do you have a pic of what your seeing? Edit: How about give us a run down on what you all got now. Lights, temps, PH levels, etc...
what you think nute burn.it was at 1/4 strenth strain is super lemon haze using 2 100 watt cfl lights was just 1 til yesterday..am using the liquid ph tester til my digital one gets here.ph is in the 5's. in a big storage container
That almost looks like a nitrogen deficiency based on this link: Marijuana Plant Abuse Although if you mixed up your nutrients right then I cant imagine a plant in a hydro system having a nitrogen deficiency. What nutrients are you using? Are you sure you followed the exact recipe and correctly calculated the percentages? Remember, the recipe usually says what it calls for per gallon, if you want 1/4 of this you have to make sure you do the math right. It might be easier for you to do it like I did, figure out how many gals of water you have, divide by 4 and you have the number of gals of full nutrient solutions to add. Example: if res is 10 gal, divide by 4 is 2.5 gals. So you will need 2.5 gals of 100% nutrient solution and the rest (7.5 gals) will be pure water. Im wondering if you looked at the recipe and lets say it said add 4 ml of x, did you say "ok gotta do 1/4th so use 1 ml." not thinking that it means per gal?
here is what i did my container is filled with 1 and a half gallons.i took the number of nutes per gallonand split it into 4 and i took the half a gallon and split that into 4 also.
