Sick Plants

[Jackson]

@Waira hello old friend.

These autos are at 21 days from sprout and don’t look too good this morning.

Soil - Roots Organics
Lights - Platinum p300 and solar flare 220. Both at 18” above canopy.
Nutrients - AN Iguana Juice Grow and Cal Magic given at 3ml per gallon, then upped to 5ml and the plain ph to 6.0 tap water left out overnight.

This all happened overnight. The Beary white is dropping and Heisenberg special looks like paint was splashed on her leaves.

Thoughts?

This looks so much like what I used to experience with my autos in DWC around the same age. What helped me was to give lighter and more alkaline feed, pH 6.2 in hydroponics.

If you are giving pH 6.0 to soil, then thats definately too low pH. Rather try 6.5 or so and go easy with feed strength. That would be my 2 cents. Hope it helps.

It looks to me like some root hair damage from low pH, that causes the droop and the calcium spots. topdress some lime and up your pH of feed like megrower said.

Would just an increase of Cal magic and up ph work instead of lime? I also have Elemental from Roots Organic if you think that will work. I don’t have any lime.

Thanks @Rev. Green Genes @MedGrower

Simply getting the pH up some will help a lot. Keep in mind that those yellow spots will continue to look worse regardless but as long as you wont see any new leaves affected you should be fine.

She will grow out of it eventually so what ever you do, dont worry too much :smoking:

Thank you @MedGrower !!!!. Been using distilled water and then used tap left out overnight and that’s when she went nuts.

 

[MedGrower]

Is your tap water very hard or what? I use tap water left overnight all the time with no issues but I do have very soft water (0.14 ec / 70 ppm)

 

[Jackson]

Don’t really know but purchased distilled water and will use that when they dry out some. Would you start feeding them grow nutes again or wait and see what happens after watering with ph water at 6.5 and up cal mag?@MedGrower

 

[MedGrower]

Sounds like feeding a bit would be a ok but I feel hesitant to advice on this because my expertice is in hydro. Best wait for likes of Waira for a proper answer bro!

All.

Remember there are two plants I’m questioning. Appears all comments are about Heisenberg special. What about the drooping crazy looking Beary White?
