New
I don't water it but every other 2 days maybe that if the soil is dry a couple inches down. Ill have to watch it then I guess.

This is a better pic to give a diagnosis. From what I'm reading I don't think I overwatered i but I could be wrong.

 

[JohnSlabinski]

From what I'm reading is I might have wind burn since my new growth is a little weak It kinda clicked cause I just put a new rotating fan in there and forgot it was on max speed a little close to 2 but the other 2 are a little bit away

Here are my findings for symptoms for wind

 

[Porky101]

Its not wind.

Its starving.

Either you havent fed her or all her roots are dead due to overwatering and cant take up nutrients.

I'm sorry but I'm having a hard time believing I overwatered her. They get a water bottle every other day or so when she's dry on top and till my first knuckle down she was dry today so maybe underwatering her will check tomorrow

Look like u burn them the tip off the leaf is showing sing off burning . Npk ratio ? ppm in ur water? does its reuse soil or new batch .

 

[JohnSlabinski]

I haven't used any recent N but I used P and K at like half power since it's almost 2nd week in flower. Think it needs a flush?

You're watering the top of the roots only. Guaranteed. Too little water too frequently.

I don’t know if you’ve checked but I’ve had this problem with fungus knats. They feed off of the roots and can show all the signs that you have I think it would be difficult to overwater at this point more likely in veg. What light are you growing with ?

 

[JohnSlabinski]

I have fungus knats but I keep them under control by keeping it 65 degrees at night and I try my best to not overwatered them so they don't completely eat them. I noticed they don't roam the top soil anymore but are at the bottom tray where the holes are gathering there. But I think hotrodharley is right I use a water bottle to water them every other day maybe 2 sometimes if the soil is super dry. I noticed when I flushed them they perked up pretty strong thank you guys so much for the replys

If you have fungus knats I guarantee they are causing spots and yellow leaves they spread like wild fire and feed off the roots if you google what damage they do you will see the only way to stop them is to put sand on the top of the pot so they can’t get through it to lay more eggs and also water them with an additive that kills them add sticky paper they the damage is done and what is damaged won’t be reversed but in time the new growth will be good if you can get on top of it good luck. I moved to hudro no problems with them then much cleaner

I'm using a 1000w led and 600w hps in a 4x2x6

I use a organic spray called Maggie's farm I only seem them on the water tray under my pots

 

[JohnSlabinski]

I don't spray that stuff on my babies in flower but sprayed that shit all over in veg and it kept them away but now they back in flowering and it's making it a little more difficult to control

This is worth a read. Also if your led is to close to the plants can cause this same yellowing caused by light stress

I didn't think about the light stress I just moved the light a couple days ago that might be the problem
