Hey could really use help here

[aceinthehole767]

I’ve got these rusty brown streaks across the leaves, they’re becoming brittle and crispy, and some are turning up.

Cheese strain
Just put into flowering 12/12
Pot size not sure
Soil grow, Fox Farm Ocean Forest
Nutrients fox farm TRIO
Age might be about 2-3 months old

Try pics in natural light, and full plant pic with pot

They look ruff, droopy

pH
How much nutes
How often feed
How often water and how much
How far are lights away

 

[aceinthehole767]

As for the ph of the soil I’m not sure. The nutrients it’s been getting 2-3 tablespoons per gallon of fax farm grow big, and 4 table spoons of Fox F. Big bloom per gallon. Been giving it a gallon every 3-4 days. 2000watt bestva average power draw (390w) at 19 inches from canopy. Also 2 105w CFL, and 1 68w cfl

Sounds like very heavy feeding. And often too. Is that the recommended Foxfarm feeding schedule?

Yeah that’s general feeding instructions on the fox farm bottles. Maybe I should dial it back? Possible that the instructions are too much?

 

[Weaselcracker]

They don’t sell those particular nutrients in my country. But yeah, most people seem to stay around half strength for most nutrient schedules, or at least use that as a starting point. And feeding every three or four days sounds like feeding and possibly watering too often.

Okay thanks, I’ll cut back. Anything you’d recommend I do this moment?

Cut it in half and report back in a week. FF sells nutrients, so they want you to use more, though most people here use a fraction of recommended.

That’s great to know, I will thanks.

 

[Chris Scorpio]

Wow!!!!

They Are getting like 2-3x more than needed

Go half of this schedule, pray, check your WATER pH not soil pH
And good luck

Thanks very much, I just was looking at that chart. I did use a ph kit today for the first time. All I can do is wait and see.. Thanks.

What's yer water pH at ?

 

[aceinthehole767]

What's yer water pH at ?

Well following the ph up down kit I tried to get it to a 7.0. But honestly I don’t know. This is the first time I’ve ever used this before.

 

[Chris Scorpio]

Water and nute mixture pH is very very very important

A ph pen is your best option my friend, but till then master that GH pH stuff

I'd also remove those cfl... And raise yer light to 24" till u get this under control

Also, the damaged leaves will not recover, so watch new growth

Okay doing that now, thanks Chris.

Yeah I’ll second what Chris said about raising your lights. Nute burn gets definitely compounded by too much light

Yeah I’d never have thought to adjust the lights.
