300 watts of CFL 2700K for flowering. 3 - 6500K cfl's for some blue spectrum 10 - 2700K cfl's for red spectrum Expert potting soil (feeds up to 9 months stuff) Ferti-lome Bloom booster 9-59-8 I feed nutes about once a week. (teaspoon per gallon) 2 fans constantly blowing. Two gallon pots Plants are about a month and a half into flowering and overall about 3 months old. Have no clue about the PH, dont have the resources and I know I am going to hear about it haha.
The problem is the main fan leaves are dry,kinda crispy and are yellow with brownish spots. The leaves and buds looks amazingly healthy on my shorter plant. Overall the buds look good but the fan leaves look horrible. On the other plant the top leaves and bud are hard? and also a Dark green color with dark brown spots on them. I am so close to the end only like another month or so, Please somebody help me.
your Phosphorus(p) is through the roof.. flush and reduce those nutes...try and find something with NPK in single digits. PH is kind of a big deal, but its only an issue because of those nutes...If you can stand drinking your tapwater, its cool, some salts, chlorine, fecal matter, arsonic, whatever.... is all good in moderation! but invest in a test kit soon, and your probably going to be too high out of the tap so get some PH Down from general hydro, while youre at it get PH UP too.
Those nutes are great for a rose bush, bad for mj...try finding something else..If you use home depot/walmart products get superthrive, its all you'll need.
so it was a form of nute burn?... If your close to harvest I would just continue using plain water and just give it a good chance to flush itself. If your using a good potting mix I wouldnt use as much nutes anyway. A plant can only take up so much nutrients adding more to the soil isnt doing anything but harm to it IMO. Im in australia and all i am using for my plants outside (tomatoes chilli's etc) is a good quality potting mix and cow/chicken shit pellets every 3months.
Looks like mine a while back..it was Mg def. For that you use epsom salts.

alright yea sounds like I need a Ph kit for sure, thanks for the input I just hate for them to die after all this work and time. its actually some bag seed but its all frosty and orange, who knows. I will try to post some pics after I try some of the methods, I have flushed them a lot but it seems to do nothing?

In your original post it said you are using fetilizer that has enough food i it for 9 months right? Using fertilizer with time release nutes is not a good thing for marijuana. The soil is going to keep giving your plants nutes even when you don't want to. It is very easy to over nute your plant when using time release fertilizers. I hope this helps ya out bro.

yea i had no idea what i was getting myself into with that soil! I think the best thing for me to do is put them in some fresh soil and get as much as I can of the old soil out of roots without causing shock.

You can pull the plant out and rinse off the excess soil then replant. It will slow down the growth for about a week but after that you plant will love you. I use fox farm ocean forest.
