Can someone help diagnose this plant?

Hi.

I am just starting my 3rd week of flowering and a few of my plants newer leaves are starting to go a paler green. I am using organic feed and have been watering every 3 days (used to be 3) as after 2 days the soil is very dry and plants start to droop dramatically and they perc right back up after a water.

I have recently started to feed with a higher doseage of bloom food, with 2ml iguana bloom and then added K (1) 2 ml per litre and 1/2 ml of Cal-Mag. PH level is 6-6.2. Room temp is 20-24 room is 3m by 4m and have fresh air fan/Extractor fan and circular fan running and under 2 600w HPs. Water is left to evaporate chlorine for 24hours.

Thanks

Bet your going down the too much P road!

You should stay on veg style feeding for at least 2 weeks after the time flip....Then start bloom feeding by mixing veg and bloom 50/50 for a week before going to full on bloom feeds...

I did use veg for 2 weeks, then 2 waters with no feed, then half veg half bloom, then, bloom then bloom with added K. 3 weeks in now, you think i should just water with no feed for a few times and then re-introduce bloom? Thanks

Looked at the pic. I can see some canoeing. That says moisture/heat problem.....Whats the temp AT the canopy level? The RH of the grow area? How do you water/feed? Patterned - like water - feed - water - feed ? How often?

Hi mate. The temp at canopy level is near 28degrees, so I have moved the lamp further. I do not currently know the RH of the room, with it being a large room and with the exhaust and fresh air fan I presumed that it would keep it at normal level?

I always water - feed - water - feed, and up until recently was every 3 days but I noticed that the plants were starting to wilt and the soil was very very dry at this point so adjusted to every 2 days and they responded well to that. It was just after the last 2 feeds that i noticed the change.

Would you recommend to go back to every 3 days and maybe reduce nutes? Is the discolouration of the leaves cause for concern?

Thanks

Bloom and soil....pH to 6.7 your in-going.. soil slf pH's, but this sure won't hurt you.

Reduce waterings - No.

The discoloration is the plant reacting to the high P......Not a lot you can do but to back off the bloom nutes till like week 5 and then add more. In your case....They'll finish out ok..

Just remember what I said about how to use them on the next run.

Thanks for this mate. i reduced the nutes to half of what I was originally adding on my feed today which they seemed to react well to.

Had my PH at 6.3 today, so will continue to up over next 2 water and feeds

Again, thanks for the help. Have a good weekend
