Oh hey sry if I said before or not or if you read it somewhere else, the spectra light wasn't too powerful at 2 ft (others use more powerful spectra at that height fine), it was the Mykos and Azos that was mostly responsible. I just totally spaced about using them!

Well I got my VPN up and running again So i can post without worry once again, anyways I think Im going to be busting out the 400W HPS next week. The LEDs are working ok but I think I just need to get more powerful ones, SO im going to put my 2 300w LEDS in one chamber and flower that and do one with 400W HPS and see how it goes. Until of course I get the high powered LEDs. Im not going to do this till next week going out of town for a week on thursday for my brothers graduation, and I want to be here to monitor the heat and humidity changes

Well Im back ended up going down south for a little longer than expected, and my buddy who was watching my plants i think turned off my surge protector that was going to my Flowering chamber so they didnt have any light in there for about a week. I chopped down the 2 oldest ones for what they had since the leaves werent coming up at all anymore and The smaller ones i dont know what will happen but i kept them in there to see how they do. Anyways Ill have some pictures and videos up tonight doing some rearranging in the room and hopefully adding more lighting this weekend

WHats up guys I wish I had more time to surf the site these days but between taking care of the ladies and getting my business i just opened up up and running takes up a lot of time. Nothing to crazy with the plants yet so I just have a new video for now cant wait till I can take some bud porn shots. Also if anyone knows whats up with the yellowing and dying of my leaves please let me know. In the video the ones in the Vegging chamber in the Big pots are the worst they are in all Ocean Forrest soil. I use filtered water to water my plants My nutes I am now cutting in half of what the bottle says and I also cut my soil with more perlite now im hoping it was like a nute burn from so much soil in there. ANy advice would help I never had this problem when i lived down south.

I think the most annoying issue is manganese/K, while it can be easier to notice discoloration under an LED light it is harder to diagnose it because its such an odd light. If you can get us some pics of the plant problems under normal light we could help better.

Any luck On anyone knowing what that yellowing of the leaves is. Ive tried holding back on Nutes for a while Ive done flushing Ive giving smaller amounts of nutes, but it seems like some plants are doing fine and one or two will have the Fan Leaves dying out with new growth coming in just slows things down while the new growth comes in
My money is on some combination of 2 or 3 of the following: nitrogen deficiency, zinc deficiency, and iron deficiency. I'd probably put most of my money on Zinc. To me it does not look like you are giving too much of anything, it looks like it isn't getting enough of certain micro nutrients/minerals. A bottle of something like Earth Juice Micro Nutes would do it (thats why I used to fix my zinc/iron issue that looked very similar to your issue).

Yea for a while i wasnt giving anything when they first started yellowing it had me parinoid about giving too much nutes. I got a few different bottles of nutes here I think on my next watering I will do some grow big and some root drench hopefully that will prevent anything from my newer plants too.
To my knowledge over feeding doesn't cause yellowing, its usually a deficiency (I believe though that too much of one thing can lock out another making it look like a simple deficiency, but its probably not that likely without also showing signs of burning). Over feeding usually looks like brown/black/rusty spots or obviously dead chunks of leaves (may be soft or crispy). They say if you use all organic nutes that it is difficult/unlikely to over feed because they are usually lower in NPK and are not harsh like the artificial nutes can be (so if you want some peace of mind from burning your plants, you could switch to organic).

Have not browsed this entire thread but first thing I would do is check the soil PH. That does look like a micronutrient deficiency. Both acid and alkaline PH makes some micronutrients unavailable so that may be the cause. Also what is the PH an salt content of your water? Start there, flush thoroughly with good water and start slow on a complete fertilizer as well as benes both fungal and bacterial. Will be interested to see if you can pinpoint the cause

Thanks guys I definitely want to pinpoint whats going on here, unfortunately I dont have a PH tester so im not sure what it is of the water I do use a PUR Water Filter Pitcher. I pour my tap water in there and then into 1 gallon water jugs. As for Nutrients right now I use all FoxFarm nutes Big Bloomm Grow Big Beastie Bloomz, and Root Drench, also Sledge Hammer for my flushing. I dont do a lot of Nute as I said in my last post Im pretty paranoid about Over fertilizing. So far the things i have done to try and fix myself was cut down on nutes for a while. I cut my Ocean forest soil in my new plants with more perlite to add air. I will start to slowly add nutes with the next watering, watered yesterday with my PUR water. Thanks again guys I cant figure this out so im hoping with you alls help i can

Whats up guys I did a watering yesterday gave my first three flowering plants some Big Bloom and Root Drench and the others in flowering was the first time I gave nutes which were Root Drench and Grow Big those are the ones under the CFLS in the back in the vid Ima post. Im hoping now with weekly nutes and not as much as the bottle says less that the plants from here on out will start being more healthy. Anyways heres a video of some of the changes i did in the room still waiting on two more mogul sockets that the company said they had in stock but didnt so now im waiting on them.
