Little plant!

DaGodPotter · Apr 2, 2022

Does anyone have any clue what I should do/keep doing? I’ve got this family jewels, veg about 70 days and now on 2nd day of flower. Grown in happy frog and was transplanted into ocean forest. Some added amendments such as bone and blood meal Epsom salts and earthworm castings. Soil ph:6.11 runoff: initially 5.6 then as more water came through I got 6.2 about a minute later. I have another plant of the same strain, about a week or 2 older but is much smaller with thinner leaves and has been through the whole grow. Assuming these could just be different phenotypes of this strain? Till the stem and petioles started becoming EXTREMELY purple(almost black) and red respectively. The petioles seemed pretty red the entire way(as they also are on the older plant) but now I’m getting some Interveinial chlorosis, necrosis spotting and purple splotches on the underside of some leaves and more underneath the chlorosis/necrosis. Almost every leaf has either yellow or brown tips, some curling up, some down. The new growths were also Very limey till the nitrogen and ph’d to 6.5 water like a week ago. Had very low N, low P and high K.
Update: Ph’d nutriwater (recharge, molasses, some silica and bonemeal) to 7.0 last night and it seems to be doing better today, the top of the stem is getting some green back and a lot of the purple splotches seemed to have dissipated some. Still have yellow or brown tips and some spotting. Any help would be appreciated.

I would say the purple is genetic and the leaf spots are from chasing your ph. Looks like some light stress going on also..

I’m gonna shoot straight about this issue …..

All of the issues are from …. Your hand. You are throwing all kinds of shit top of each other , that’s why plant looks like that.
‘First, Ocean Forest is highly nute dense by itself then you throw Epsom ? ( in soil ? ) / Blood meal ( High N plus it takes a couple weeks just to break down = overload ) since Ocean Forest has a shitload of Nitrogen already. And then Bone meal ( high in phosphorus and is also a slow release fertilizer) so not sure why you need to throw that much phosphorus at it right now.

and then you are saturating that medium for a runoff number that is all over the place ..

ALL YOU HAD TO DO LITERALLY was plant it into ocean forest alone Then either topdress some more soil in the coming weeks to keep nute levels up as plant exhausts it. Or a simple dry fertilizer like 4-4-4 ir something like that .

Plant is Hella fried.

I had imagined that it was by my hand. Well I feel the need to explain myself a little now. For the amendments, my idea was sorta to have them break down, as you said, over the last couple weeks till I hit flower so that those nutrients that I thought had to be more available to flowering plants would be there. Is that not how you’re supposed to do it? It’s my first indoor grow my dude. They are in 5 gal containers and this one gets like a half a gallon of water so it’s not like I’m watering tf out of it. I do appreciate the feedback

I was thinking maybe genetic cause the other also had some purple streaks but they’re so light and it doesn’t have anywhere near the amount of purple and is like 2-3x the size. I was wondering about the light stress. It’s never been closer than like 24” with 480w being the most it’s seen.. maybe just too much for this one? Thanks for the reply
