Could be a Ph or a root issue.

 

[BBD32]

I've been checking the pH. But as for the roots, can I just pull it out of the pot to look at the roots. Or do I just have to guess?

 

[Ripples]

It appears to be on only a leaf or two which would imply a PH imbalance. I would think if it were a root problem the entire plant would be effected? IMO? If you are still in veg you may want to raise the RH a bit to 45-55ish. They look fine otherwise. Good luck!

 

[BBD32]

I am going to test my runoff tomorrow and see what that tells me. As for the RH, I have a small humidifier in the room but I have a hard time keeping the RH up when the lights are off. I also leave a couple cups of water scattered in the room, still not helping much.

 

[BBD32]

I checked the runoff and it was 5.9 so I watered them all with 6.7 to see if that helps. Didn't flush because I'm not sure if that would cause nute burn.

Sounds correct... Don't worry too much as long as they continue to look healthy... Most new growers end up worrying too much about the little things... Stick to the basics. Watering, PH, RH, Temps, Lights, Ventilation. Do your best at keeping these in line and you will be fine!

PH might be the problem do you ever get water on them? TTry watering with less water. I have been watering with less so soil can dry quick and my plants absorbs the water more here is my 6 weeks old when I took the PIC.

 

[BBD32]

I adjusted the pH and was also told I may not be watering enough. I was waiting until the soil was dry and fluffy 5-7 inches down. But after a good watering they seem to have perked up quite a bit with no spread of the discoloration or any on new growth.

Starting to run out of light though, going to have to hook up another 1000w this week.

They are approximately 10"-14" tall. The plan is to do a perpetual grow so within a couple weeks I'll have to start moving plants to flower every couple weeks. Not crazy about having to start them so small (guessing they will be 20" or so) but it is a medical grow so to stay legal I can't have a harvest above 2.5 ounces. I'm thinking of moving 2 plants every 2 weeks, so the last few plants will have awhile in veg still. Does this sounds about right?

Decided to do a journal so I can stop cluttering up this portion of the forum
