This is my first time growing cheese and I got the clone via a club in L.A.

the problem is that basically all the powerplant leaves are getting brown spots, curling up, getting crispy and brown and falling off. the problem started in veg and now im flowering and its back.

heres what im working with:

400 watts HPS
its in 5 gal container in fox farm ocean forest soil
PH is 7
temp in the room is 85 when the light is on.
watering is fine... not over or underwatering it.

can anybody take a guess at it with just this info????I thought someone would maybe know about cheese from previously growing it.

Those are perfect signs of Potassium deficiency in a plant. Get them loaded up ASAP. Your acid levels are also high. Applying lime to soil is to make it less acid. It also provides plants with calcium, an important plant food

Anyone can throw guesses out there, but w/o a pic thats all they are, guesses... To say its a perfect signs of K def and load up on a ton of it is just fucking insane. Where on the leaves are the spots, size of the spots, is there an outline of a different color around the spots? These, and a ton more q's need to asked b4 a good guess can be given. Better if u just put up a pic.

Phelps has a point and a picture would be a lot of extra help, but plants can easily take up more potassium than they require. Although, if too much is used it may result in magnesium deficiency due to the competition amongst these nutrients. But you can give it a try and top up on K and Mg :)
