Hey RIU, So my plants leaves are getting brown spots on the middle leaves, the bottom leaves are Grey and wilting, and my top leaves are starting to shrivel up at the sides. At first I thought it was phosphorus Def, So I gave them 1/4 nutes of ff for the first time, thinking it would solve the problem. It is getting worse and fast. The growth is also stunted. Can anyone tell me what the problem is and what i should do.:bigjoint:


All the pictures are of the same plant, just different leaves with different problems.

That's what i was going to ask. Seems awfully strange to have a deficiency so young, unless there is something locking out the nutes. Looks like low PH to me,(with the twisty leaves) but I could be wrong.

I actually did check my pH after I watered with nutes and it was probably around 6.2, a little low but I didn't think it would cause so much damage. The problem is I have no money till Saturday so I don't know how to boost up my pH till then. Got any ideas? Also should i flush it out so there's no nute build up?
 
Check on google which does what. But baking soda either raises or lowers PH. Vinegar does the reverse. Just don't use both together or you'll have a middle school science project in your dirt. When you do get your cash, invest in PH up and down. It's cheap, convenient, and you'll only have to buy it once in a great while.

Don't go trying to throw something at it hoping to help it...flush it...let it dry out completely...then hit the reset button...give it a chance to recover...then start over...g/l

Need more info......exactly what are you feeding and how often? List ALL the supplements you add !!!! What is the water used? What soil is that, brand or how mixed (did you add anything to it)?
How did "start" them and what was the water like for that -pH,nute used?
