Thanks canefan that's what I didn't wanna hear but however if it's a possibility then I guess I better suit up huh lol, so tell me do you think a simple neem oil solution would help or do I need something a lil more potent?
Leaves turning brown & deteriorating PLEASE HELP!!!!!(SEE PICS)

I haven't ever used neem oil on my girls, about every other thing on the farm I have with good results. This is just a personal thing though, many friends use it with great results. As far as something more potent, not unless you find this does not solve the problem. I think if you start with the least potent and most safe first you are ahead in the long run.
Your girls are nice and dense so the spraying and inspecting will be time consuming especially the first time through. While you are inspecting make sure to look for signs of catepillars, they can get out of hand quickly and do major damage. Just one of the necessary things you have to do outside or in a greenhouse.
Keep us up dated, hope it works and anything else I can do just PM.
Happy Growing

too much heat
the burn on the leaf LOOKS a lot like too close to the light type burn, but you're in a greenhouse, so... too much heat
also, too little nitrogen - you've been feeding flowering nutes exclusively and are in week 2.5 - the plants stretch(veg) for the first 2 weeks of flower and burn up a lot of N creating new foliage - the flower nutes are low in N on top of this
prolly a mild cal deficiency as well
go ahead and flush the soil if you wanna just to be safe(won't hurt) but the next time you DO add nutes, use veg nutes and see if your plants don't green up overnight - LITERALLY, you will SEE the green PUSH OUT the leaves
get a bigger(or another) fan - lower that humidity or you're gonna be RAPED by mold
also, get some duct tape and cut some vents up high, if necessary to lower your heat - you MUST lower heat and humidity in there man
get those plants some nitrogen EVERY time the leaves fade
i feed veg nutes in veg and 50/50 my veg/flower nutes in flower, compensating where necessary
DO look for bugs, but thesed are all DEFINITELY issues as well

Nope, I doubt it would be Co2 availability, I would agree with a a light flush however, and an off set ph will cause nutrient lock out not extra uptake, cal mag i doubt it, i had a problem with cal mag and literally every leaf will turn yellow, My final advice, get more ventilation, water with plain water and keep us updated.
Ok I'll be in the garden right before lights out I'll let you if I come across something...

i hear you on the heat and possibly cal deficiency but as far as lack nitrogen I find hard to believe because I did only give them earth juice grow til almost the 2 week mark then I finally hit them with the bloom nutes. So how do I go about correcting the cal deficiency?
I'm not sure if you guys noticed but my green house is topless until lights out so I should be seeking a way to have air coming in, circulating and blowing out?

Yup, install a few intake and out-take fans and you should be dandy
A brief update... I went and inspected the plants and found no signs of bugs (not sayn I'm in the clear) I really don't think catapillers will be a problem where I'm located being that I only see about 2 butterflies a summer... Is there any other bugs I should look for, will treating my grass and surrounding bushes with orbits pesticide help keep any pest away?
Thanks blue... I'm thinking maybe the little $20 inline from home depot (money is an issue)?

looks alot like ph problems to me man id invest in something to check your ph lvls that or heat are the 2 biggest things that jump out in my mind cause if it was a nute burn itd start from the top and go down. honestly i would keep a close watch on heat cause thats the biggest thing it could be in my mind. question did it start out with slight yellowing then got worse and turned brown? cause that would suggest a def if not it makes me think to much sun.

dude u dont know how lucky u are. prune the dead shit out. and imho i would thin it out even more. the plants look great and keep doin wut ur doin. i wish i could grow outdoors. it IS the best place to grow cannabis
Ok guess I'll bring the scope out tomorrow...
I'm leaning towards the sun or heat hoping it's not bugs, my ph levels are good and they haven't had much nutes... Thanks for the input buddy...
Yeah they do look pretty nice otherwise but by it being so early I really would
Ike to catch it if it is a problem that could possibly get worse you no...

Should be fine, just try to ease those temps down to a place where the plants like it (65-80)

What makes you think he has bugs? I'm just wondering because I didn't see any tell tale signs and i'm always looking to learn more
