Deficiencies? Help!

Yellow leaves WITHOUT spots is OK, yellow leaves WITH spots (necrosis) is not a good sign.

First thing I'd do is check your water PH your water in with. Should be in the 6-7 range. Be sure you're watering enough. This is the time they like a lot of water. But the spots aren't good. Yellow OK ... not all your plants have it so just take er easy don't over react! Easy to do for sure.

Check you water PH if its good then its just small pots and they are root bound. Won't be able to do anything about root bound now. Maybe water in some earth worm casting slurry.. basically EWC say a cup to 2-3 gal filtered water and water in.

You won't see a huge change, it takes a little time, a few days they should stabilize but its getting time for senescence to happen. We wanna see the flowers get bigger. Eyes on the prize as they say. Don't matter how you get there.

Ph top ~7 going down 6ph it is soil. I am giving about 1.5l for each girl every 2-3 days, i check the weigh of pot also and add feeding till it’s about 10-20% heavier. Gave my girls not phd water today, but as you say they drink i will give 1.5l for each phd tomorrow let’s hope for best!

Oh and by the way, this rose was slow grower from begining and maturing very slowly, I am amazed how she did till this day. I wasn’t expecting anything much from her, but now she looks phat. Just those leaves... we’ll see.

Just let em grow, probably root bound. The plants are short so not enough soil likely culprit. I VEG my plants in 12L of soil or # 3 nursery pots. They will get leaves looking like yours after they get root bound. I keep mother plants around for cloning. They outgrow the pots all the time. But that's VEG, when I flip them I up-pot to 28L pots. Plants get large. Can still do an EWC slurry. That will perk them up for the run down to the end.

I do grow like you do on a table with 21L pots and keep plants small run AUTOs in them. A lot of small plants can get a good yield. You should see that when done with this round.

Rose looks worse today, two dying leaves with spots on diesel drift (doesn’t look very bad though) and bomb with simmillar sympthoms. Roses ph was very bad, bomb’s not too good too. What I did. I flushed with tap water about 15l each then after doing this gave tap water with less than 1/2 nutes 4l. And gave normal feeding to others. We’ll see, willing to get better with my girls. :x i think it is not a full flush??? And I wanted to raise my ph a little, runoff showed something to my side, Iteied to test with that thing I have and it showed a little better results too. Waiting for ph test pen, now only have test paper and that thing which i dont trust anymore...

Day 38 when 12/12:

 

[spliffas]

Diesel Drift’s affected leaves, only one branch:

To be honest don’t know what to expect now. I may be worrying too mich, but still , they are my babies. :/
I gave them lots of water and tried to test runoff, it looked like 6-7 range. Now will give feeding after 4 days at least and will check runoff’s ph then. Probably better not to mess with that ph downer. :/

When I see leaf necrosis in soil its usually water related. Too much usually but "overall" they look like they are chugging along. How's the humidity in the room there?? A few funky leaves I dont stress over it. Maybe add some more wind down low at soil/pot line. Just note how they are growing/buds fattening.

 

[spliffas]

Temps gets max to ~31. Humidity 40-50% just added few dehumidifiers and will add few more when they start wk 7. Willing for the best now and waiting for tomorrow. Pots should be completely dry in 3-5 days I’d say.

 

[bobrown14]

I wouldn't worry about humidity - that's perfect really. I get happy when it's in the 40-50% range. I'm happy with 55-70% here this time of year even with AC.

If you are waiting 3 days between waterings at this stage they are getting dry. Lift the pots a little and feel how heavy they are then water good and lift again. That will give you a good idea when they are dry and need watering. I'm inclined to water every day at this point. Not drenching water but keep the soil moist.

Watch the flowers and be sure they are growing fatter. Those leaves are going in the compost. Your plants look ok.

 

[spliffas]

Ok not to mess with ph lesson learned. They started to smell more!!!

Rose after flush today looked like:

And front flushed THC BOMB front which was showing same signs as that dying rose in the back. When they wake up they’ll start their day 40 when 12/12. let’s hope tap water will recover my ladies:

Pots are very heavy, will let them dry, probably monday or tuesday will give tap water with nutes and check runoff ph, there is a little chance that I will recieve my ph testing pen till that time. :3

They look good... I don't PH never did. Let the tap water sit out over night before you put it on the plants.

 

[spliffas]

At least they stopped doing their strange thing I think.

My Beautiful SBR (not that one with crazy leaves):

And Black Russian which was showing some signs earlier, but now looks nicely budding lady:

 

[bobrown14]

Yes indeed that looks pretty good. Don't worry about the yellowing leaves. Looks like shes root bound just keep giving her enough water (let it sit out or bubble it for a few hours). Eventually all the green on the leaves will turn. The buds with retain color or may even change to purple or something like that.

Gonna be some big fatty nugs. Be sure you have good air movement. Those tight bud sites can get problematic if the RH is too high. Try and keep the Rh down below 70% even after lights out if possible.

 

[spliffas]

RH 40-50 will try to lower to 30% after a week or so. Those looks good. I messed up bomb a little and other rose, but looks like that yellowing stopped so now just waiting. Dunno when to expect harvest from earliest ones. 2-3 wks maybe?

 

[bobrown14]

You gotta ways to go yet..... maybe 21 or so more days. I'm guessing at least.

Just getting going. Keep the water pail handy. You running HPS?? How far away from the canopy are they??

Teah with cooltube 44-50cm about. Doesn’t feel hot though. 31 max at tops. But now lower as cold outside..

 

[bobrown14]

31C is warm. You in the southern hemisphere? Summer time there yet??

South west uk it is autumn, but we still having one another day of summer. But ir’s getting colder at days and nights checked em today, looks good. Yellowing stopped i think, need to look @ diesel drift which is in the corner, she may need a flush too, but bot sure now, got to wait. Will post some pics later today.

 

[spliffas]

And by the way, diesel some leaves are yellowing but I clearly can see purple appearing is this a good sign? Looks beautiful to be honest

 

[bobrown14]

Yup purple sign of things to come. Let the leaves "fall" off. More colors to come.

 

[spliffas]

Diesel drift probably root bound, checked today, ph looks good, no other critical signs. THC BOMB stopped yellowing, at least irt looks like that...

Green Ninja. Bud rot??? Some brown spot on bud and crispy black sugar leaf??
