Take a look at the pics

I only get this on one variety in my garden. Its one of my more expensive seeds i have purchased. Can anyone give me some insight what it has contracted? It started at the bottom and working its wayup. I run perpetual 12/12 in coco and the last time i planted this same kind the same thing happened but stopped after getting up a couple nodes.

How long has that plant been under 12/12? I had somthing like that happen when mine was almost done to the lower fan leaves and move its way up. Is it hurting the plant?

there's your problem, your not comfortable with coco. stick with what works for you. some gardeners can rock soil, others have a nac for hydro n aireoponics , so on that note do what your good at. coco growers are very in tune with there gardens and spend most of there time in there rooms. If you get a bad or stale batch of coco then your subject to all kinds of issue's hope this helps and as always KEEP ON GROWIN

Looks like nitrogen or nitrogen/potassium deficiencies.

usually when i get an N def. the thing will yellow from the tips back. This to me looks like a fungus or something. You think it looks like that when it has N and P def?

Looks like early N & K to me. I may well be wrong. More will be here sooner and someone might have a better answer.

Lol Coco is easy to grow in if you do your homework .. Sure it likes to retain calcium but other than that its fool proof if you understand basic nutrients and how to maintain a plants health

I concur , the indicators of such are obvious .. K is another nutrient that Coco tends to hold , it works well for experienced growers being that it does not flush out easy when purging

OP did you switch to bloom nutrients upon transition ? Most common mistake if so and it might explain a little more as well .And are you using Cal/mag ? ITS A NECESSITY WITH COCO

I had leaves curling down so I flushed and probably didn't start giving nutes soon enough thereafter. I didn't use calmag on my other strain and it was fine. I went ahead and up'd bloom nutes tonight and gave calmag as well. Again I pretty much hate coco at this point just trying to get what I can. Probably just make hash out of it. Appreciate all the help. Let you guys know If the calmag doesn't fix it

Hotrod is correct, when plants are def in K they are open to disease etc.
