Help bottom leaves turning yellow and burning ----Help

Gen.Crackhead · Aug 28, 2012

The bottom leaves of my plants have started to turn yellow with burns in some places . Iam currently using J arther bower compost with 6 weeks feed; as base soil under 400w MH bulb on 18/6 cycle. I recently transplanted the plants from their 2 liter pots to 5 gallon/ 20 liter pots on the 18th of Aug. i am also using a home made neem pesticide just as a precaution. can anybody plz tell me whether it is a nutrient burn or mg deficiency or some pest cuz i cant seem to get my head around the problem. i hope the pics help.

Hello - I could not see any lower main stem pics - do you see any purple striping starting at the base of the trunk and working its way up? Also, in advanced Mag deficiently you will see the lower stems of the fan leaves turn color too. A generally lighter color green and lower leaves turning yellow and dying. If you don't see this then it could be nute burn or N starved. Isn't figuring this stuff out tough? :wall:
