Hey guys need your help:
This is my first grow so I am new to all of this.....heres what I got:

1. Indoor Bubba Kush soil grown
2. Week 5 of Flowering, vegged for about 3 months.
3. I water every 3-4 days.
4. I fert every 2 weeks with Molasses, Tiger Bloom, and Hydroplex...appox 1-2 teaspoons per gallon of each....and i feed about half a gallon to my plant.
5. Humidity 40-50%
6. Lighting Schedule: 8am-11am indoors with 6 bulb T-5 setup with Co2 boost...then out on the patio from 11am-3pm...then back indoors from 3pm-9pm...I am giving it 13hrs of light to compensate for the fact that i have T-5's.

So basically about 12-14 days ago the bottom leaves started to turn yellow which from what i read is normal in the middle of flowering...but now its gone up everywhere and now i am getting brown spots and it looks like some kind of nute burn.....I tried looking at other treads but the pictures are not very clear....any help would be appreciated! If you need more information on my grow you can check out my grow: https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/33984-t-5-first-grow-attempt.html



Thank you once again!!

MMMM Looks like Nitrogen def. But like you said thats normal in flower. as for the little brown spots They arnt too bad but it looks like P burn. I would lay off an the flowering nutes for a bit cause they seem to be geeting all they need and then some (hence the burning) Have you flushed at all? If not give it a flush. You wiil notice even more yellowing after the flush but hope the brown spots stop. You can flush with a mild N solution if you want to pervent more yellowing.
Hopes this helps man

could be fungus gnats, and is it the original bubba kush from DR greenthumb that costs $300 for ten seeds.
What is fungus gnats and how do I get rid of them?

I got it as a clone from the club for $25, all I know is it was called Platinum Bubba Kush....to make things easier i just call it Bubba Kush ( you kno how the clubs are with their fancy names for everything..lol).

I have flushed it twice in the past week with a half gallon of 12hr old tap water that has 1 teaspoon of molasses. But it seems as if its all still turning yellow. What would be an example of a mild N solution that i can buy? And what would happen if I left it this way for the remainder of the grow(not that i would...but just in case so I know what to expect)?

Fox Farms Tiger Bloom was made to be used along with Fox farms Big Bloom.You say your not using Big Bloom but are using Hydroplex.....Stop the Hydroplex... get some Big Bloom and use that along with the Tiger Bloom. You could give one feeding of what you used during veg as that had the higher N to give abit of extra N to get through the bloom stage..

Yes I have only using tiger bloom. I will pick up some of that big bloom and use that in conjuction with my other ferts.
Hydroplex was very highly recommended by the guys at the hydro store. Should i discontinue its use completely? Or use it very sparinly?
Here are Hydoplex's numbers: [FONT=Tahoma, Verdana]NPK: 0.5–4–10[/FONT]

I would not use it all..Fox farms ferts were made to work together..The two Big Bloom and Tiger bloom have all the nutes you need. I'm sure Hydroplex is good. But not used along with other brands of ferts. The Stores like to sell products!

Feed your plants a little growth nutes or somthing with alot of nitrogen in it. Not too much though some plants do not like alot of nitrogen during flower.
