Deformed leaves, consistantly strange shaped leaves.

Discussion in 'Sick Plants and Problems' started by HumanShaman, Feb 17, 2023.

  1. Hey all, first time medial grower here.
    Iv had some strange shaped leaves recently. From what Iv read it seems to be due to low PH. Multiple strains all experiencing the same symptoms. Most seem to have recovered after adjusting the watering PH to ~6.2.
    Just wanted to get some additional input for future reference.
    Thanks yall, much love. Peace!

  2. I haven't grown soiless with synthetic nutrients in quite some time. But if I can remember correctly, if your run off is higher in ppm and lower in pH, that's an indication that you are over feeding and have some buildup going on. I'd flush, then back off to 600-800ppm for a while. Maybe alternate a plain water day with your feedings
