Hi there

This is my first grow of Triple G by RQS (photo period)
It is on her day 90 from the first sprout.
Indoor, soil mix, ph 6.3, 18/6 schedule, 75F temp, RH 55
nutrient every other watering with floragro, calmag (once a week).

1. Please help identify the problem of her leaves
2. Is she ready to be flipped to 12/12? Or should I fix the problem before I flip to flowering?

Thank you

do you vary the 6.3 ph?
has the soil gone bone dry?
purple stems can be from phosphorus def
as above burnt edges indicate nute burn

remember, the damage is done so the purple & burned parts aren't going to get better, watch the new growth.

IMO - fix before flip

good luck

I jusr flushed them a week ago to approx 700ppm.
Don't they need some food?
What are you flushing I dont understand? Your leaves are dark green with the leaf tips curling down a bit "clawing" thats why I said just back off on the feed a bit or those curled tips will all be potato chips. Stop flushing no need to flush especially not in a soil mix, its pointless, stressful to the plant and wastes your time and money.

Always 6.3
Should I vary the ph and follow the chart to fix something?

I always check with finger about 1 inch before watering.

Thanks for your advice

I checked the run off, the ppm was around 7000-8000 on ppm. then I flushed them with tap water until the run off read 1100 on ppm

Wow 7000-8000 is your plant soaking in a bottle of nutrients? Lol. Are you sure your tester is accurate? That is crazy numbers. Even 1100 is high you should be down around 500-700 unless your seeing signs of hunger.

nut burn. Just water normal. NO flushing. no nuts for 2 or 3 waterings new growth should be fine. Whatever amount you use nuts cut in 1/4 and see new good growth no burns. Never follow the manu suggested charts. Start VERY small and if plant likes it and you visually see good growth no tip burn up the nuts wee tiny bit, when you see tip burns you went too far cut back you found a good zone of nuts that will be way less then the package says. Watering....after watering pick up pot see how heavy it feels. Day 5, 6, 7 etc check and if feels light your ready to water again. The plant likes to semi dry out before watering. The mean if leafs drop you went too long. It also will help with knats. The finger think check is a complet waste. Best pot is an air pot 5 gallon check ebay. reusable and yield up 25 percent from fabric or any other pot.

Yes, mix up the ph a bit to pick up needed minerals.

Soil or pro-mix? Turns out there's a difference in ph requirements.

Your plant roots are having problems. My suggestion is to carefully plant your plants and regulate the pH. Cytokines can make your plants feel better.

The sooner oxygen reaches your soil، the sooner your plants will heal.

you are right. I think I need to re-calibrate my ppm meter
