Hey there!!

can someone help out with what the hell is going on here... I keep removing the bad leaves but it keeps coming - plants getting too skinny now and I’m worried.

Started fixing the Water PH but things only got worst... tried feeding it some nutrients and no response either so I’m just giving water as I have no clue if it’s too much or too little of something. The plant right next to it is doing something similar but not neaaarly as bad. Could it be plant got too big for 3gallon pot?

What nutes are you using, how much. The rust usually can be brought up to ph, p, or k values out of whack. By adjusting the ph it could have gone into a ph swing and that’s just as bad as bad ph, should take a little time to level out. There’s a few light green leaves on high shows me nitrogen lack. Awaiting info to further diagnose, thanks

At first glance I'd say a Boron deficiency, but you need to look that up before assuming it right and treating it.
Possibly just underfed, as I'd like to see more branching and bigger leaves.
The reason I grow hydro is that I know what's in the food, whereas soil can be very random (even when you make the soil mix at home).
Also, please check your pH meter for calibration a few times each year or do you use pH strips?

I use Greenleaf megacrop nutrients very lightly... I mostly do just water and if I notice deficiencies starting to show then I feed her. I realized my tap water Ph is super high so that ph swing you’re mentioning sounds like it could be pretty spot on. thanks for your help!!

Got it... I’m working on transitioning awayxfromcnutrient in general... Iboight this living soil that is working great for my other plant and I just give it water- this plant is in fox farms ocean forest though. And I use a ph meter... I just got a new one so it should be good but I’ll definitely do that calibration.

I disagree with boron deficient, those signs start from the base of the fan leaf and worth their way outward on the leaf. Plus it’s extremely rare and hard to get with use of nutrient supplementation
