I think its fine. It looks like you splashed something on it.

Thats what i was about to say. Did u spill nutrients on leaves? Because i doesn't look like a deficiency' to me

Shadrock15 · Nov 2, 2016

I've been very careful not to touch the leaves with any water or nutes
I was considering phosphorus as very early on some of the lower leaves work yellow. But they were only the very first set and it looks to me like new spots almost everyday

Looks like you jizzed on it.

Rather, you splashed it.

If it isn't that, your plant is a lesbian.

PH did seem a little alkaline is it better closer to 7 or 6.
Is there a top dressing that I can use to amend the soil with to raise pH or make it more acidic

Shadrock15 · Nov 2, 2016

Thanks for your input, one other question doesn't look at all like heat or light could be the culprit my temps get up around 90 hard to ventilate where I'm at

FFOF is organic and it's ph buffered don't mess with it. Click on the link in my signature it says water only, a guy named tim fox or something like that is using ffof and just tap water. You might want to give it a read and maybe ask him what he ph's his at, assuming he does at all.

Thanks Doc. i appreciate the help.
If i find an answer i will post incase anyone else has similar problems
I also checked when i got home tonight and i dont see how anything dripped on them but..... it is possible .....im just stumped that it seems to be spreading

Not to spark a discussion, but I see many growers complain about low ph runoff using ffof. I've never used ffof so I really have no experience with it.

Thanls for thet reply Ivers, do you think the lower ph is/could be, causing those spots, with regard to earlier posts i looked for ways nutes or anything could have dripped down on the leaves and dont believe thats what happened.

I think low ph would make more rapid and smaller spots.
Would also cause a lot more visible deficiencies. I must agree with those above, it looks like drops of water have been evaporationg on the leaves, causing the bleaching at first, killing the tissue and the tissue becomes brown as it dies.

I have a preference for Roots Organic/Soilless Organic and Dry Organic Nutrients, myself.

Roger A. Shrubber · Nov 3, 2016

are you SURE you didn't splash something on it? something nasty? because thats a fucking weird pattern, and each spot of that damage has a very damaged spot in the center and then less damage as you go away from the center, very like something caustic spilled on them.

i'm not sure what that is, but i'll bet you a silver dollar that ain't ph damage

Roger A. Shrubber · Nov 3, 2016

some kind of freaky ass leaf miner damage?
are you SURE you didn't spill anything on them?
thats no deficiency i've ever seen, and i've been fucking plants up for a while now

Olive Drab Green · Nov 3, 2016

Definitely splash. If he says otherwise, he has no idea what he's talking about.

Shadrock15 · Nov 3, 2016

Gentlemen i searched and searched and did find a bottle of ph down that appears to have fallen over dripped.... not down the wall where i would see streaking, but just dripped( at least from the state of emptiness it now has)
And apparenty(and i hope this is what happened) but the fan was blowing it out and specklin me lil' darlings.
I thank you for your prompting or i would not have found. i do ky best to keep a very very clean room. i suppose not clean enough. I would never have found had i not tore the joint up looking due to your suggestions
Thanks Guys

Not sure if it would help or not but try taking a picture with natural lighting.

Its supposed to because its buffered. It probably has humic acid or something in it. organics can ph balance it's self as long as you don't use synthetic nutrients.
