Hey! So I am growing Chrystal feminized seeds by Nirvana and they are currently still in vegetative stage, going on day 30. The plant is a little behind on growth because it got a bit root bound before I transplanted it and I was stupid enough to have had been growing it in a clear container. Anyways, the plant sprung back to life after I transplanted it, but now I have these 'rust-colored' spots and some yellowing on my leaves. I am currently growing in fox farms in a 3 gal pot and use ph water betweeen 6.5-7.0 with added seaweed extract. It maintains a healthy humidity of 40-55 and temp is between 70-84. I want to top the plant as it is getting taller and I am afraid if I wait too long it will outgrow my space when I put it into flowering. What are these rust spots and how can I fix them? Are they cal-mag deficiencies or? The rust spots are also only on a few of the older leaves. If they are cal-mag deficiencies, other than buying some product could I use epsom salt and egg shells?

PH issue. The soil is a good enough buffer. No need to ph the water.


Don't add anything until after a couple of regular non-adjusted waterings'.

It looks like it may need some nitrogen.
do you notice how light green you leaves are?
IMO try some alaskan fish emulsion it works wonders, I get those same spots when not using my AFE.
do you have more than one, you can try it on one or two then wait a week, if it isn't growing to fast you shouldn't have to worry about it getting to big at the time.
The only other thing I can think of is, If you spilled some nutes on the leaf at that spot, that could cause a spot on your leaves.

They look ok, not bad, keep it up, she will surrender to you. Hopefully sooner than later.

Hell yeh, I had this problem on my heavy bud autos early on and gave them some n and within a day the plant had gone back to normal growth rate.

I ordered the same for my first grow in Ok. I lost all due to overfill on dwc 18 gallon.
Were you happy with grow? Love to get couple of seed to try.

ffof is ready to use. eggshells take a lot of time to break down and won't work now. plus, you'd have to mix them into the soil. too late. I'd stop the seaweed, it's strong stuff. I don't know what your problem is, but that resembles heat damage. ffof should be good by itself for a long while.
