Deficiency in plant *Bloom*

Unless you are talking about the dark color because all 5 suffered from N tox earlier, the leaves on plant #2 are suffering from a unique Clorox and fish foliar incident not from fertilizers added to the soil.

Here are the posts where it all started #1226, #1240. It was a big mistake and also a great lesson.

I was hoping to get your thoughts on the Clorox incident at some point @MichiganMedGrower. I feel there are times an incident like mine with the Clorox happens to someone and it is likely misdiagnosed as something else in the plant problem section. The leaves affected by the Clorox have a very unique look compared to other leaf problems I'm used to seeing even right now as they have aged.

Never used chlorox or h2o2 before. And always hand water and mix for each feeding. Sorry.

I screwed up by putting some Clorox in an evaporative cooler to clean it and left it run in my grow room while I was out. The house had a strong smell of Clorox when I got back. I'm pretty sure the bacteria killing properties in the Clorox released into the air destroyed the outer coating on my leaves.

I miss understood. But I still don’t know.

Nice. Good luck. Sorry I have no idea about the correlation to your leaves and the bleach.
Thanks!
That was my bad about the way I explained the bleach thing. Basically I accidentally evaporated a lot of bleach into the humid air with my evaporative cooler and it was enough to show significant leaf damage.

Here are a couple of pictures. The damage to the leaf shown, it is hard to explain. Happened to the majority of the seedlings I had going. I'm quite sure it is do to the Clorox I evaporated into the air.

The second picture shows the next stage and most leaves then dried up. All of the new growth has been fine since.
