Got a couple of leaves like this on grow in new area I started, anyone know what might be causing this?
Looks like nute burn spots. However the main picture looks good. Youve got a harvest! Have you pushed the food a bit too much?

I'd consider flushing them, definitely don't give them any more food. Put them on water and if possible check the PH of the run off. Too much nutes can lead to acidity. Next you could get a lockout so be careful from here.

Thanks for advice, thought id actually underfed these but will give just water and check run off nxt time, did add magne+ and top max this time so maybe they are too strong for plants?

Thanks. I'm still not a dude though! :)
Thing is forums are quite male dominated aren't they, but regardless of sexuality you are a very talented grower with a lovely mannerism and we would all like as much input from you here as possible. You might be female, she-male, chubster, beauty, sour or even look like Yoda but your advice from personal grow experience is invaluable here.

Boys Dudes and Men let me take your eyes off the grow scene for a moment... The best products for brownie points going if you need to impress the wife or just show off your sensitive side this Christmas! http://www.thebodyshop.co.uk/shop-by-range/spa-of-the-world.aspx#/spa-of-the-world.aspx I did the whole works on my missus last night as she's a bit off colour and moaning about aches n pains... However this morning I smell like a god and she's bouncing around like a teenager again... might try some on the dog! Dog n God in same sentence always kinda invites sarcasm... @abe supercro lol

Heyup peeps could anyone give some advice in turning colours in my plants I know I can get blue, small bud I took for tester was green and darkish blue, but wanted more blueness

My temps are 24c or lower on and 18-16c off do I need lower night temps...

Has anyone tried or done the ice bucket water majig and did it work??
Or should I wait and it will come, I am on week 6 or 7 not sure but few days maybe a week or so before I chop.
It's not for bag appeal it's for me and jar appeal lol

What have you fed them? Top Max by Bio Bizz? Did it happen just after that? Are you supposed to add PK after wk 5? Also what level of the plants were the leaves pictured? I usually see def underneath first. It's quite hard to distinguish between def and over. I've just done it to some of mine! Lol What are the top of the plants looking like? The buds?
What temps did you have at light on and off for the last weeks
I use air con and it's going to about 14C some nights. This seems to trigger it.

I live on North England lol fucking freezer here like, I can lower my temps up to 17c I have a very faded dark greeny blue and I wanted to be a proud daddy lol last time I got the afghani to purple up at 17c but that was seeded lol. I'll try my best...

Okay second question what temps would lower your room to the trigger the colours but not slow tha plant down lol. I am a noob and from what I read it's about 17-15c but I would like to know from some experience person.
Not a pro by the way just someone who had a really cold room and when did they see issues start at what temps please.
Thanks In advance
And thank you very much @lahadaextranjera

I started using plant magic magne cal+, since adding that in my schedule I noticed nice thicker green stem nearly shines lol... Might look better when I'm stoned but definitely green thick stem

Firstly, what's your water saying guys? This to me depends on whether I'd be adding cal mag. Mine is only EC 0.3 from the tap and I don't add it. Any higher and im sure it'd have more than enough and be quite hard.

I'd only worry about cal/mag if I was growing with reverse osmosis water with EC 0.0. All NUTES Would fall through the floor without a foundation. So, adding a bit of tap water to ec0.2-0.3 would be ideal.

Next, I keep things simple. After buying loads of different bottles for years I realised that less is more.

My range is canna rhizo for cloning and seeds and also transplanting. Then bio grow after 2 weeks of nothing in All Mix with the flower bottle being introduced slowly. My strain hates for than 1 ml/litre grow. Increase the flower instead. I wouldn't use top max or any other boosters coz they can burn them. I used cannazym in hydro but soil has enzymes. I also have silicon but I'm lazy with it.

I tried B'Cuzz blossom builder after week 5. Get that guys, thats your extra PK BUT add a fraction of what it says. I ran out and need more. It's hard to get here.

I forgot to check my min temps for you but sure that it's dipping to 14-16C. That's our night temps. It's only goes to 5C in winter. Don't even need antifreeze in the car. Dont worry about cold temps (to 10c) but worry about humidity. An American grower called Willow told me that over coffee. She should know, her Dad is Soma.

Sorry the late reply, I've been giving a friend a cloning tutorial. She did a nice outdoor this summer. She's started indoor now.

Oh and don't care about the other thread because if you got haters then you are doing it right! Remember that!

Lol idiots every where I'm used to it, I'm a real stoner and very calm and happy coz I'm allways stoned:bigjoint:

My tapwater is absolutely crap and smells like a swimming pool water:spew:
About the ec I don't know but the water I buy ph is 6.2 and in my growing inviroment they thrive of that 6.2 bottled water I add nutes now a little bit.

All is personal in my house so I like small buds but shit loads of crystals and allways been couch hoggin budds (apart from first two grows lol) wich I'm happy with.

When I first started last crimbo I had allot of deffs with the soil I have so this is what I did to counter act all my issues.
Raw honey
Mg Soil root boost potting mix
Grow sure all purpose but now changed Field marshal: blooming nute cheap but frikkin awsom has vulvic and the other Vic something. It has lower npk than grow sure aswel and plant respond happy
i keep getting mag deff so: magne cal added and all is better.
Keep getting a Pk deff one at a time or all at once so for that I got: vitalink buddy and pk13/14.
So with all my deff locked up and know how much to add of these now my new run in perpetual is Painkiller B, Painkiller A was my idea and only just dialed in my nutes and confidential I can grow agood plant without issues,

Painkiller B idea was from a friend from here who is absolutely awesome guy and mentor was his idea l.

But since buying bottled water and additional nutes low doses I get the results I want. :bigjoint: Still open for advice but allot of idiots about I pritty much stopped talking apart from convos.
I'm happy with my progress but others here aren't lol I only got me to impress and the wife bongsmilie.

It's good that you are using mineral water. My girlfriends had to do the same as they live in the centre. EC 0.2 for bottled water usually. I wouldn't get caught up with EC if you are growing in soil. I used to think in hydro, whilst in soil. PH is more important.

What light are you using? The more lumens the more weight?

Each grow you do you get better usually. Observation is key. The biggest mistakes are over feeding and over watering (top up watering and not letting the soil dry out).

Was Painkiller from Dr Underground?

Yeah it Dr underground it's cheap but from the tester I took its frikkin nice lol.
Ph is allways 6.2 put in and run off is same.
I don't bother with EC, 600 hps I upgraded since I got the hang of growing plants properly was 400 hps.
This Painkiller B will be good I know it from day 5 in flowering it has flowerd every where like strawberry heads lol I got it spot on, or like they say here dialed in my grows but with a added hint of a good man
