Yellowing Leaves... Need a remedy!- LOTS OF PHOTOS!

macman69x · Mar 16, 2010

Hey there everyone-

I'm having some issues with yellowing leaves. I've searched the forums, and I'm not really sure what I can do to FIX the problem. I know the Gravity screwed my girls up, I just need to know what I can do to make sure that I can finish out my cycle.

I fed yesterday with the mixtures below. Half of my girls are on one mix, the other half on the other mix. Doin 5 gallons of water per mix, once every 3 days.

My potting is 5/6 CannaCoco and 1/6 Light Warrior.

Flowering under 2 1000 watts

I'm in week 5 of flower on an OG and (what I think is a) Snowcap, the snowcap is the smaller one, it looks like it was affected a bit more, and it's definitely a 9-10 weeker as it's taking a lot longer to develop than the OG.

3 tbsp big bloom
1.5 tbsp tiger bloom
.5 tbsp purple maxx
1 tbsp gravity

25ml H&G Aquaflakes A
25ml H&G Aquaflakes B
.5 tbsp purple maxx
1 tbsp gravity

Let me know if I can provide any more info.

Thanks!

lockout of or simply a lack of nitrogen. The purple stems and the oldest (usually fan leaves) leaf matter turning yellow first is what gives it away. The dark sploches are either lockout resulting in a deficiency or nutrient burn! They really don't need the purple max right now ad they already are undergoing some stress.

Check the PH

Yes, looks nitrogen deficient.... Also, Looks overwatered to me.. leaves are limp..Might be the onset of root rot..

You need to chill on the watering, and come up with a better nute recipe.

If your using foxfarms you might wanna take a look at their feeding chart, here's a link. >>http://www.foxfarmfertilizer.com/soilfeed.pdf

Good luck!

To kill root rot add a little peroxide to some water and water them with that. In fact id have a container where i store my water and add an airstone too it to saturate it with air so it doesn't stagnate. A little peroxide goes a long way. Try that and add a little nitrogen and see how they respond.

Salt build up will cause lockout so if thats the case FLUSH. Whats your PH?

agreed. they're nitrogen deficient.

Hey guys!

Thanks so much for all the responses! I really appreciate it.

A couple things on my end:

1. It's for sure not overwatering, I wait until everything dries out before watering. The coco mix I have is pretty light to begin with so I'm absolutely positive it's not overwatering.

2. I've been using the foxfarm feeding schedule based on decreasing strengths when adding the HCO products (purple maxx and gravity). I've actually used this exact mix in the past with great results, but that was when I was still growing in Soil.

I'll flush with plain water tomorrow morning and if I dont see any results by Thursday, I'll add some nitrogen.

What do you guys think... salvageable?!

Thanks again everyone!

fuck yes. Keep em going

About to feed with some nitrogen. They could definitely use a day to chill out on the watering but I'm worried if I don't get them the nitrogen I'm going to cause more damage than good by waiting. I added 1.5 tbsp Zone to my 5 gallon mix to correct any kind of root rot that might be goin down.

Am I on the right track?

peroxide does the same thing. yep! let us know if they don't improve.

In terms of my nitrogen I should be good with 5tsp of the Foxfarm Veg nuts yah? It's tsp/gallon, should I hit em with some more?

I would gradually introduce that amount over the period of the day and see if they look happier. Im not an expert so my advice is as good as any but it is subject to being wrong. Im just sharing what I would do with my limited knowledge and experience.

Can anyone else weigh in?!

macman69x · Mar 17, 2010

I know there are people out there with more knowledge than me! Help me out people!

cannabis is very tough. just add little by little and it should improve unless you have lockout or high soil salinity. When they start greening up in the new growth you know your doing something right.
