Organic gowing, help diagnosing deficiency/excess

Hi All,

I started an organic grow and all was fine till the older leaves started to turn orange/rust in color. This started with spots on the leaves and then some necrosis as the leaf part that turned orange/rust dries off. I looked a few places for deficiency/excess charts but can't seem to pinpoint the exact cause so I'm asking for help. Let me know what you think or if you encountered these issues before.

Cheers!

Explain what these plants have been through so far

What are they in for soil and what did they start in

What do you feed them

yeah man, we need waaaaaaaaaaaaaay more info in order to help you at all. temps, growing medium, water source, anything and everything.

I'm willing to bet that it is Foxfarm soil with a bottle nutrient, judging from the hydroton.

I grow in organic super soil mix, not hydro. No Foxfarm either. I just cover the dirt with clay pellets to keep the humidity in the soil. I'll post my whole mix recipe and such later.

and just to point out... you said all was fine until those leaves started showing necrosis... but from the look of your plant, all was not fine, cause it just looks stressed in general. Leaves are not flat and lush as they should be, everything is pointing down instead of up to the light. It almost looks severely under-watered.

They look over watered, and over fed to me. The soil looks hot.

I have made super soil and didn't let it mature or "cook" and I had the same thing happen to tomatoes. Basically burn the roots as soil was to hot, or rich with nitrogen

less is more bro. cut your soil with something less intense
