My purple trainwreck is having some issues. I'm not sure what is wrong. Some of the leaves are getting yellowish brown in some spots. Not sure if it's nute burn cal mag def or something else. Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm growing in soil with fox farm nutes. I haven't given this plant to much nutes because she had nute burn early in her life. I did give her half strength tiger bloom nutes about a week ago. I've given my blue cheese pretty much the same thing except a bit more nutes and she is doing really well so it must have something to do with the genetics. Here's some pics.

They look amazing. Looks like nute burn how often do you fertilize? http://forum.grasscity.com/outdoor-grow-journals/1330858-we-want-fire.html
The purple Trainwreck has only had nutes 4 times her entire life. The problem is the soil was hot as a seedling so I didn't need to add much and I think I still over did it. If it's nute burn I'll be happy. That's a real easy fix. I've been only giving her water. I have not tried to flush. Do you think I should? Blunts, Bitches and Banjos
The problem doesn't look to big just give it water let the plant tell you what it needs. I usually water twice then feed and repeat. If the problem doesn't go away and you see more brown rust then it's cal mag def. http://forum.grasscity.com/outdoor-grow-journals/1330858-we-want-fire.html
Awesome thanks for that chart! I've seen it before but couldn't find it again. I'll save it now. There is stuff called calmag I can use if it does get worse right? Blunts, Bitches and Banjos
It is calcium and a magnesium deficiency for sure. They are flowering and tend to be hungry for those elements. cal-mag is what you need. I always use it with my feed or hydro soup.
Do I use as directed on bottle or is there a standard I should adhere to? Sent from my iPad using Grasscity Forum
It could possibly be the lighting because the leaves are actually very light green. Much lighter than my blue cheese. They don't feel dry at all either. Sent from my iPad using Grasscity Forum Perfect thanks a lot snoop. Sent from my iPad using Grasscity Forum
See you can nuke a plant and still have the light green in the older leaves. Plants need magnesium to make chlorophyll so its possible to nuke a plant with too much nitrogen and other things and be deficient in magnesium. That is why I like hydro, I can control all that and if its bad fix it in 5 minutes. Just so much guesswork with soil.
no guessing at all.. add amendments to soil, add water every few days, harvest weed what's good snoop?
It all looks pretty normal for flowering. Could use some cal/mag Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
This is only the second one I've got to flower so I wasn't sure if that was it or if it needs something since it's only about 4 or 5 weeks in flower and still a ways to go. I ordered some calmag should be here in a couple days and hopefully that will sort things out. It smells sooooo good right about now too. Blunts, Bitches and Banjos
