I've been running Lucas formula, for both veg and flower, for all my plants, so far they've been good, but this one plant has got away from me.

The other plants in the tray seem to be doing great they are almost ready for harvest, but this one i think is getting a lack of phosphorus and maybe mag, I'm Not 100% on what else I'm still looking into it, now I have 4 clones in veg under lucas at 1/2 strength(0-4-8). an they are having the same problems, I've been having this problem when i veg'd her in seed also under lucas, so here are the clones

I was thinking of switching to the full GH formula, to see if that would help, since it would be the cheapest alternative, I have a bottle of Gh Grow going unused, anyone recommend this to help my problem?

Looks like a very high Sativa pheno.....Sativa's are fussy feeders...Looks like nute burn to me.

Separate it from the tray into something you can hand feed it from and reduce feed to 1/4 strength.

i think it is toxic

if u look all your tips are burnt on the rest of the plant .......i had the same reaction in a few plants

flush the root zone out ......hit it with some rooting again to spawn new tendrils remove the large fan leaves(burnt ones) back your feeding to half for a week then move it to 3/4 hold ........that should be enough time for the new roots to go out it will let u feed it again ........this is how i fixed my trouble in soil (messing with super soils and additives)

I got every DVD that the BBC has released......Actually, those long episodes were really only 1/2hr segments that aired like the old serial's of the 30's/40's. Took weeks to see a full story!

Nute burn, Huh i feel dumb, I don't even know why that didn't even occur to me, I guess I'm so used to everyone saying lucas is not enough for some plants. I can just dial back the whole table, if i need to.

So am I over feeding in veg 2 ?

Use or get a meter if your going the Lucas route. It is a base line nutrient provider. Be specific on your recording of numbers. If your numbers go down top up with nutes if they go up more water. Epsom was required on some of my strains 2 weeks into flowering or so. I have since gone three part, I will say the extra grow gave a faster veg and healthier looking plants, no real weight gains.

Thanks, that sounds like my best bet, now cause I was just refilling the rez with nutes, an I see my pH drifts down to 5.5 from 5.8 in like a week or maybe less.

An as for switching to 3parts, did you do it for flower 2?

Cause I have 4 clones from the the same plant and their all showing a bit of the same signs of deficiency, an I kinda want to figure out the problem before these babies go into my flower tent.

I'm still wondering if its deficient or overfed, but I don't have any droopy leaves only some with redish-brown spots.

see I don't really like to diagnose deficiency or toxicity. Because of similarities in symptoms. I will normally say something about temps. Cold roots will lock out. Make sure your rez is at a suitable temp. Then watch your numbers. I think you guessed right with mag, all other things considered. No I drop the grow after 1 week flowering.
Nearly forgot.... Use silicon as your ph up you WILL notice a positive difference.

Look fried...Lucas is so easy man,add some Cal mag,change res often,keep below 75f or pathegens.If your PH is off its gonna lockout certain nutes.More DO in colder water,I prefer 65f.Get Some meters...
