Hi guys,

It's been some time since I posted on here, as I haven't had any problems...untill now at least hehe.
My ladies were planted the 21th of july and are growing outdoors.

One of my ladies had a coloring issue, take a look:

I see traces of the light green coloring everywhere on the plant.
I've been searching for a while w/o succes, I've seen posts which say it can be due to overwatering as this is a possibility
since I left for vacation a while ago and someone else watered it.

Please think about a diagnosis/solution, I thank you in advance.

Cheers

I feed it with fertz two times every week.
My npk is 8-3-4 so I guess the problem should pass when I feed it again.

Thanks and cheers man

ZE LOCKOUT! FIX ZE LOCKOUT! Yeah that looks like a flower.

Potassium but probably induced by too much nitrogen or something. I'm not sure what exactly caused it but switch to some flowerish nutes and definitely make sure that your pH is in check. Those really hardcore splotching isn't as much a deficiency as the plant eating parts of itself rapidly since it can't get what it needs, for whatever reason.

Possible reasons? Bad soil drainage, pH, lockout, salt buildup, heat stress, drought, and many more.

Make sure your environment's in check, give it a good balanced 1/2 strength flower nute and water it hard to runoff and see what happens

They look like there budding in your pics. Id say they need more p and k with some cal/mag and less n. something like 3-7-5 + cal/mag.

Alright I just bought new nutrient and fed them girls for the first time with them.
They are regular nutes for plants that flower (NPK 4-6-6 with ome extra micronutes etc.)

I hope she will catch up :)

I just did exactly what you stated in that last sentence, I guess I'm back on the right track?

I think I have the same problem. Although it seems the third set will be normal. I have seven plants going right now planted at the same time and in the same medium and this is the only plant with any sort of discoloration.

Check it out.
