ok I have no pictures right now but I know somone has to know what im talking about. I'll load pics when I get a chance.

My leafs are turning light green from the stem leaf towards the the tips of the leafs. They haven't reached the tips of the leafs. But it does look like its progressing.

I recently switched to soil 25% ffof 75% organic potting soil no nutrients yet. Giving regular filtered water.
What is this?... please help how can I fix it?

Also my new growth looks like it's just coming out light green as well?

I´ll wait for the pics, will give you much better advice if you post em right away, but sure Nitrogen is also my N0.1 tho Mg or a PH lock out could also be a reason, even lack of Iron but I doubt that ..

use 2 minutes to take a pics and upload it, and I´ll use 2 and see if I can help you, Im sure you plants wont die in the mean time.

also a few questions, do you PH your water ? and what do you mean by normal filtered water ? Ooh yea and how old are they ? agin pics will say more then a thousand words really and Ppl. also seems more helpful ;)

Well hell. I hate to hear about your baby that's sickly! :( it would make it eaiser to judge problem with a picture.
So I'm going to post a picture of one & you tell me if it looks like that type of "yellow" "lime green"? Also here's a deficiency guide for you to go by & hopefully diagnose the problem!


Quick Deficiency Guide

(x) Nitrogen: Entire plant is light green in color; lower leaves are yellow; growth is stunted....

(x) Phosphorous: Entire plant is bluish-green, often developing a red or purplish cast; lower leaves may be yellow, drying to a greenish-brown to black color; growth may be stunted...

(x) Potassium: Leaves have a papery appearance; dead areas along the edges of leaves; growth is stunted...

(x) Magnesium: Lower leaves turn yellow along the tips and margin and between the veins; the lower leaves wilt...

(x) Calcium: Young stems and new leaves die...

(x) Iron: Leaf tissue appears yellow, while the veins remain green...

(x) Copper: Leaf edges appear dark green or blue; leaf edges curl upward; young leaves permanently wilt...

(x) Mananese: Growth is stunted; lower leaves have a checkered pattern of yellow and green...

(x) Boron: Young leaves are scorched at tips and margins...

Molybdenum: Leaves are stunted, pale green, and malformed...

Sulfur: Young leaves turn pale green, while the older leaves remain green; plant is stunted and spindly...

Zinc: Leaf tissue between the veins is lighter in color; yellowed; papery in appearance...

Heat Stress: looks alot like nutrient burn, except it occurs only at the tops of the plants closest to the lamps. There's only one cure for this...get the heat away from the plants.

Light burn: White, bleached portions of leaves nearest the light also burnt necrotic patches if the damage is severe.

(x) Ph Problems: One of the first signs of having a slight ph problem is, your plant having part of the leaves kind of twisty, spotty with brown, yellowish, red spots within each other.


The 1st picture is "Calcium" deficiency.
The 2nd is "Zinc deficiency".
The 3rd is "Nute Burn".

I hope this helps out somewhat bro! :) take er easy. And let me know how it goes..
Later. Your friend, Dank.

here is a picture thanks you guys for all your help!
yea from the the looks of it thanks to (DANKSTER) for the list of signs.
it looks like it might be ( MG AND SOME NITROGEN DEFICIENCY)

I READ FOR MAGNESIUM TO ADD 1/4TSP/GALLON OF EPSOM SALT OR
1/2TSP/QUART FOR FOLIAR FEED? WHAT WILL WORK BEST FOR THAT FOLIAR FEED OR SOIL FEED?

FOR NITROGEN I HAVE GROW BIG, TIGER BLOOM , BIG BLOOM WHAT WILL BE BETTER FOR THE PLANT I KNOW TIGER BLOOM IS FOR FLOWERING STAGE.
AND HOW MUCH PER/GALLON?
THANKS YOU GUYS ALSO. SHOULD I WAIT TILL MY WATER FEEDING DAY OR SHOULD I JUST FEED NOW?

It looks just fine man. One of the biggest things to remember is to Keep It Simple Stupid. Esspecially in soil there is alot of down time, and you gotta take a deep breath and smoke a bowl.

yea look ok, tho I do see some Mg def. (Leaf`s look a bit curled) and with lack of Magnesium you plant can`t take up the Nitrogen

so yea 1/2 to 1 Ts. of Epsom salt per gallon of water will help Im sure, foil feed or in the soil is not so important tho foil feed/misting do work faster, IF you remember to mist em under the Leaf`s (where its pore is located and where it "breath")

most weed strings is Mg lovers and use a lot, I normally mix 1/2 a cup per 10 gallon of soil in my soil mix and also add a bit a few times doing Veg. through watering, when I begin to flower I begin to use Black Strap Molasses and since that also contain Mg I stop with the Epsom salt

both when it comes to Epsom salt and molasses I fist delude it in a cup of boiling water before I add it to my water Can

Epsom salt also calld English salt is Magnesium sulfate, so it also provide your plants with sulfate witch also is a important micro element to weed
