Thanks for the feedback again
I actually have same symptom last run. the leaves turned yellow much earlier then it should. thats why I worry about it right now. I will keep looking to see if it gets worst.
If you have worse looking leaves throw up some pics of them so we can see. Over and under feeding is really easy to do in dwc so it's common for someone new to see some burning and/or nute deficiencies/toxicities. Just gotta learn how to identify the beggining of problems and stop them before they become worse.

I think I am having the same problem that I had last run.
fan leaves turn brown as pic shows.

I messrued PH and EC last night. can tell the PH and EC swing a bit.
The one that I did not do defoliation shows more signs of deficiency.
two days ago: PH5.9 EC 1.5 last night: PH6.1 EC 1.2

The other that I defoliation do not have much sign of deficiency, but that one I amlost took all the fan leaves off already. I can see some left fan leaves show some sign of deficiency too
two days ago: PH 5.9 EC 1.5 last night: PH6.2 EC 1.8

use tap water EC 0.1
I use GH flora two part mix with 1:2 Micro: Bloom
Koolboom liquid 2ml/ gal

I used to follow Lucas formula. go 8:16 ml/ gal
I can only get my EC to 1.2, I think a lot of guys here go much stronger EC than that
so I simply just fellow 1:2 and go more then 8:16 ml/ gal
EC 1.5 would be my base nutrients. after adding koolbloom EC raise 0.1 to 1.6
Am I feeding too much or they are actually hungry.

I know if fan leaves turn yellow in last few weeks.
Im 34 days after flip, still feeding them. fan leaves should not turn brown or yellow this eari

this is my first run running 600watt hid. I can tell buds fatten much faster then 400watt.
Want to get everything right to have good yields. Any feedback are appreciate
happy grow

You don't want EC to rise so lower the EC on the one with the rising EC. Never try to match the EC that someone else runs, every grow is different.
Other than that i don't really know what else could be causing that brown.

hey guys and gals...
I am among other first timers here, so i figured this would be a good place to look for help. Just built my screen yesterday, and got it installed, and I am just wondering if when placing the plant under the screen, do most growers keep all the branches completely under the net, or do they let them grow vert, then tuck over, under thru the netting? when i placed it under, i kinda let a few of them grow upward, to be pushed down as it grows, but i am seeing pics, and i cant really tell what most people are doing.
any feed back is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
GTM

I just let my tops grow through the net till they were long enough to pull back under to the next hole or 2 away..

Here they are mid flowerView attachment 3629068
very nice. and thanks for the reply. This is just my first scrog, so just am curious. It looked a little stressed after putting it under the screen. I always over think new things when trying new techniques, and end up realizing it after I catch on and look back..sure it will be self-explanatory.
Looking at my pic i posted above, about how long would you wait until flipping it?
thanks again'

Sorry for the late reply.
41 days after flip. Not much sign showing stress lately.
The one it took off all the fan leaves still look better production on trichom.
I think I need to low the RH its 60% avg. it get to high 70's to 80% when in raining days.
Its Spring now it gonna get hotter soon. I will have portable A/C running hopefully next week to keep the RH down and avoid the heat.

btw I am confused about when ppl say flowering time. or the harvest time reccomend from those seed banks. Do they mean i count from the day I flip? or count from the day I see pistols?
cheers

Good day @GreenThumbsMcgee
thats a nice net!
I am no expert here, still learning. Please correct me if I am wrong.
As I know, you dont want to wait till your girl fully fit with the net. because when you flip plant will stretch.
I would wait a week or two
happy grow

I count from day switch light but that is just a rough idea sum seeds of same strain may still vary

update pics from last weekend.
Six weeks after flip.
As some fan leaves still turn brown.
I think still some problems there, and I can not find out how to solve it.
dont know if it slow down any buds development.

I'm no hydro expert but I can't see how dropping the strengths will harm.

Have u posted a pic of your leafs in the hydro threads to see what the pros say,

I'm about 6 weeks in myself due about the 2nd next month

Yes I change res last weekend. hava EC down from 1.8 to 1.5.
same sign as my last run...Hope it dont get any worst..
What nutes are you running and what kinda of water? You running RO or tap water?
Is EC staying stable throughout the week or dropping or rising?
How much is one plant drinking in 5 days time?

I am using tap water with EC 0.1

One plant thats I did defoliation drink more than the other one. I would say half of 5 gal bucket in 5 days.
That one EC remain stable.

The other one I did not defoliation drink much more. Half of 5 gal bucket in three day.
This one EC raise. I thought I might overfeed them. I cut my EC from 1.8 to 1.5 and its 1.2 now.

I found my PH drop this week. I set around 5.5- 5.6 when I change res. After a week. I drop to 5.2-5.3

Keep the nutes at 1.5 for now, just let it ride it out. Don't let the little things bother ya too much, just keep an eye on them and learn how the plant reacts to everything and you'll learn to read what to give attention to or not.
