get ph right and then get it some micro and macro nutrients that will have cal, zinc, mag, nit, it looks like mag defishency to me. could be lock out or your nutes dont have it most bloomnutyes will only have limited nutes for blomm only.

rite on thanks a lot...i got my ph down to like 6.5ish maybe a lil lower.....i think the deficiency is getting too far in but i dunno? im just starting to get some orange hairs but even all the lil leaves coming out of the buds are getting really bad...will this fry the buds if i cant get a handle on it? its starting to appear on my flowering Jack Herer and a little bit on my vegging NL...i read online that calcium deficiencies can be reversed by adding dlomite to the soil or adding dolomite to water and giving it a feeding with that so ive been trying that. havent nuted for about a week but ill resume nutes in a couple days...im using foxfarm big bloom and tiger bloom and foxfarm soil

Actually those leaves look like they have nute burn, just in case I would flush them out and THEN re-feed them... FoxFarm products are great but their bloomers are a little tricky to hone in on...Good luck man.

What does the new growth look like, the fan leaves that are damaged will not bounce back really so gauge on new growth not old leaves??
Hope that helps.

your flushing too much, you only need to flush once and your plant will use up most of whats left in the soil. The fried leaves aren't gonna come back to life but the problem shouldn't get any worse. As long as the buds are growing I wouldn't worry to much about it cause there is nothing you can really do. Just remember next time to ease off the food a tad till you know how much you plants can handle.

Poor a little milk in their... I bet she will pirk right up. That will take care of your ph level and knock out the cal. def. I’d say about one and a half cups to a foot... If anything that just eleminated 2 potental problems man.

theres really no new growth. the buds are still growing but slowly rite now. no new leaves really. its gettin into week 6 or 7 of budding now so i dont kno how much more growing will be happening.

Aah I see, I did not know they were that far gone. Yeah I doubt you will see any new growth just bud swelling but at this stage of the game I don't think you really need to bother with receading fan leaves.

The damage from the spider mites look pretty severe.. how are you controlling them? They are no doubt contributing to your deficiency issues.

for sure. the buds do look like theyre still growing alright. its reached its peak height thats for sure. jus gonna try some of the things people are suggeswting n see wat works best. my friends that have now seen the plant in person say its definitley a calcium deficieny and possibly other things too so thatll help narrow down wat to do.
