Hi
I have had some issues with yellow leafe tips, I thought this was sorted out through some very helpful friend on my grow journal but apparently it is not.
Here is a quick breakdown of the setup:
Indoor hydro stealth closet
growing medium : Bottom half of the pot is Hydroton and the top half is Promix Organic, which is an organic medium mix of the following:
mix of perlite and coco peat
worm castings
bat guano
turbo grow
diatomaceous earth (not sure what that is)
Other than that I had initially been using a kelp based germ/transplant nute at the beginning and did for 3 weeks. I stopped when I was told this could have been burning the plant, I flushed her two days ago and the new growth seemed okay.
Unfortunately when I woke up this morning the new growth had discoloured tips, just a different green and now, say 5 hours later they have actually gone yellow/light brown. This is however only on a few tips of some of the segments, on the rest of the leaf it will be fine.
The shop I buy everything from said they think it would be a calcium magnesium deficiency, but I explained how old the plant was and she agreed I should give the plant nutes only after 4 weeks.
I also saw it could be an issue of the medium being too hot but I doubt it as it isn't soil. I had thought maybe it was just from left over nutes, but then the lady at the store also told me because I flushed the roots I have removed the nutes from the soil and I will now have to start feeding her, as the soil won't have enough left.
Please help! I really need some advice, as I don't want this to harm her any more than it has! She is growing exceptionally well and quickly, and is now 27 days old.
Thanks in advance!
