This is my first time growing, ive done alot of research and consider myself somewhat educated on growing but ive run into a problem with my plant growing outdoors.The pistils on one branch are turning brown prematurely. The rest of the plant looks great its just the one branch. What could the problem be?

Bad branch

Sup guys! Hey I know my issue but the problem of solving how to use the products properly. I got the claw a nitrogin toxicity never dealt with it before. I just went out and picked up Ph up and Down test kit, Also got the botanicare flush. But my question how long should I flush for? I am litterally only week three of flower got lots more to go. I have never used flush before I normally would just cut off nutrients 2 weeks before flower ending and use RO water. Also new to the PH up And down PH. I thought using Ro water would been fine which is what I did and had few successful grows out of it.

This is great but I'm colourblind.
Suddenly All my plants whatever size have started turning yellow ?
They're all autos under 2 x 600 Mars led lights in bio mix soil no added nutrients whatsoever tap water ph'd down.
80x80 tent.
It's my 2nd run 1st didn't do this but for that grow I had only 1 600 Mars but plants were tiny and low yield.
I added the 2nd to increase yield but could that have caused this?
I get 3 pots out of a bag of soil so there's 3 different bags used here

I'm torn between too much light (the only change recently) or lock out, mag def, ran out of ideas to be honest so posting pics on here for someone who knows to possibly help me out?

Any help most appreciated..doing my head inimage.jpeg

Justin.....what is the EC of your nutrient solution? pH?


Lets make sure those numbers are accurate first and then we'll try to figure out what could be causing this. Sadly its a guessing game but I will give it a shot :)

Same question....what is your current EC (or PPM) of your nutrient solution? What pH?


It looks like a number of things. Lets make sure you're not over feeding your plants first and we'll go from there.

I really need someone's help bad....my plants are 26 days old and like 2-3" tall. I've be giving them proper amounts of base nuts and some additives.....at one point they had or have a severe deficiency tho......so I added more and they are doing good as far as color but they are soooo small. I even have a really nice led grow light mainly in the white spectrum...sometimes I even give them sun
