So this may be my hardest grow yet to date, ive just had a problem after problem and im pretty fuckin spent with these damn strains...im just uploading my auto right this minute but temp is always 76-80max t5s and cfl...it is my first auto ...critical mass...I mean its still growing and showing longer and more and more pistols but im sure this is killing my yield. ..any suggestions?
go ahead and rip on them but let me get a serious opinion when your done.. lol

Im sure its a easy solution but nutrientt tox/def is the hardest thing I cannot get. ..I am the type of newbie that is constantly researching and trying to learn, I just dont throw a damn seed and hope for the best...

thanks!!

On the auto, even new growth tips are burnt/ yellow brown.....and I don't belive it's water or heat stress... I have a really good drainage, I mean I don't actually no basically it could be anything, I read one nutrient tox/def and then I read anything other one that looks like my leaves as well!!! I'm literally growing in circles here..

tox/def are not easy to work out because it effects the roots and then starts to effecting
the canopy, the first sign is dark green leaves, followed by dark brown tips on the fan leaves on the lower part if plant

really underwatering the plants can also cause this, as it causes the ec level to rise in the soil, which affects the roots, a few days later you leaves get effected with brown patches

under feeding you plants, lower leaves go light in color and falling

I did more a slimmed down version of subcools recipe, couldn't get all amendments at the time....ph was perfect....everything looked amazing until about 2 weeks ago, thrips ordered Monterey garden (usps fucked the shipment up actually just came yezterday) so I started to freak because I caught them early, went to my store (hard to get things were I live) found some neem, and was to Gung ho about it (did not emulsify :wall:) but it didn't do extreme damage I know now it suffocates the plant...no more signs of thrips for 2 weeks

As in feeding schedule, it was just water, because I still am very new and I try to keep it simple nd it has worked in the past and up to now....at the very beginning had a N def so in had some bone meal (12-0-0) I'm not at home right now I wrote down in my notes what was actually fed....I do not have a ppm meter, my ph pen broke but have done really well with tap water..

And that's where I get so flustered and can't get any where

The bloodmeal won't solve the Phos. defiency. Phos. def. shows up as blotches on lower to mid leaves. It starts as a yellow circle or oval and then becomes brown and crispy and unevenly shaped.. It can show up on the sides, tips or anywhere in between on the leaves. It seems you need a balanced fertilizer because if you are deficient in the macro nutrients then you are also likely to be deficient in the micro nutrients too. Phosphorus deficiency in the early flowering and nitrogen deficiency anytime will reduce your yields.

Yea, I never realized I had a phos def. Until you just said something ....I am able to get an organic fert tomorrow that would be 5-4-7....or does it need to be more balanced?
