We are just starting our third week of flowering I noticed some leaves started turning yellow just thought this was a natural thing. Then the leaves start looking like in the picture and I can’t find any thing that can help me with the problem I know there is some experienced growers in here hope someone can give me advice on what this is and how to fix it 9630E397-EFAE-4E4C-80CF-AC89E2025C84.jpegF81CD4E5-184F-46E4-ABA7-46DC970DBCE1.jpegF037DA13-E19C-4B05-8628-745A88259627.jpeg

What medium? What nutrients are you giving? What is the pH of the water/nutrient mix you're giving the plants?

Also, please post pictures with the grow lamps off. They distort the true colour of the plant.

The water I try to get the color of it to look like it is between 5.5 and 6.5 nutrients are fox farm tiger bloom and big bud and I am growing in soil which is fox farm ocean forest. And I’ll try to get pics soon with lamps off

How much of those are you using? What's the EC/ppm? An unbalanced feed can cause issues due to nutrient antagonism.

Do you use lime in the mix, looks like lock out due to soil acidity. Good luck, I’d just plain water them at around 6.8 and check the water run off pH to measure the acidity...... 5.5pH seems low for soil , coco is good at 5.8. More nutrients are available at higher pH in soil than in hydro for example. Not 100% but I had this problem a few years ago and it was the soil acidity. Hope you can rectify this man. Love

they do a organic version I think can’t remember been many years since I messed with that kinda growing. That’s killing the soil life brother organic and synths don’t go. Use the microbe brew from fox farm, it’s insane man. Hundreds of organisms in that. But With soil it’s about feeding the soil not the plants. The soil has to be kept good man. Good luck. Keep us posted see how they get on. They will
Recover, get the pH sorted but don’t go crazy , slowly do you have perlite and lime in the soil?????, perlite and lime are your friend for soil growing. Lime to balance pH of acid soil and perlite to avoid over watering. Too major annoying a from soil growing.

Yeah, I was thinking of two differing products, and wanted to point out that I may have made a mistake. Really depends on which one OP is actually using.

I think I stand corrected. It looks like the Big Bud is in fact organic (if I'm looking at the same stuff you're using that is).

Are you using this?

I am not using the organic version tiger bloom is organic so I’ll cut out the big bud and use only tiger bloom and I will check the run off as well get the ph in check also

1. Water to run off with 6.8pH only water. Measure run off. This is the first thing to do to confirm
Whether the soil is out of balance or not. Don’t feed anything. Get soil corrected and introduce light feeds.
