Ph Lockout? No Nutes Yet! Spots!

Dk man... I satarted feeding nutes a week after they sprouted 1/4 strength.. Now its week 3 and im using full strength nutes... I also started using rhizotonic at the same time 35ml/gal. I have some brown spots like that on my phat fruity but it was because it was too close to the light bulb and it got toasted... Some leaves on my super silver lemon haze seem to be cracking... I adjusted my ph on my water to 5.2 and I been doing good like that... Dude get u a digital ph meter... The strips did no good for me... I used them for 3 days and decided I needed a meter... Cost me 44 bucks... At hydropinic nation

This is plant 1 the more indica pheno that is getting ready for the chop. Plant 2 has bigger colas and a few more weeks.

The sativa pheno needs more time. The indica pheno got chopped today. Harvest pics from an hour ago

They look great dude. Maybe leave 1 an extra 5-7 days so you can compare.....

Thanks! I chopped all of the indica pheno. I'll put some pics of of the sativa pheno next week. Less tops, but much bigger colas...Looks complete different

My plants are doing similar things, I have also come to conclusion 40% strength nutes from day they went into tank (after about 10 days from seed) until now just wasn't enough. However only time will tell. Your plants came out looking really sweet man, god I'm hoping mine will too!

I did a tank change and nute change as it was due, this time added pretty much almost full strength nutes.

I had the same brown spots and yellowing. Has to be lack of nutes and bad ph'ing on my end.

Take the root zone apart and check for bugs, root rot

I wanted to keep posting the rest of the grow here. I'll never know what these plants might have been if I hadn't made the errors, but I did get them to the finish line. I had some help, but the takeaway is that you're not completely screwed if you fix the problem.

yeah i'm on the waiting game myself now, just gotta stick with it, keep my ph level checked and stable, PRAY (lol), and if praying doesn't work, hiss and possibly spit. Then start all over again

I got bored. Here is the sativa pheno

That sativa pheno looks gorgeous.

Indica Pheno


Sativa Pheno


That's all Folks!

All I can add is that I once experienced similar problems, and switched to bottled water (some glaciar Scandinavian water, but you probably have similar bottled water) and the problem slowly corrected itself.

I'm not saying tapwater is your only problem, just sharing. Also, bottled water can have bad stuff too (bad PH, sodium / salts etc).
