so this chocolope plant is grown in fox forest ocean forest soil with fox farms big bloom and tiger bloom nutrients under a 400 w hps lamp. it is currently at around day 42 of 12/12. the leaves started displaying some severe discoloration. i ignored it at first, but it has gotten worse. And the buds growth seems to have slowed.

so anyway, here is the picture. the plant seems to otherwise be doing well, i can post pics if you want. what is happening to this plant?

Check your ph levels.
Flush with 3 times the volume of fresh ph'd water of your pots.
Then resume feed with a weak-mild nute for 5 days or so. This should help correct the deficiency (if corrected ph'd)

From that picture I'd say calcium, zinc, boron deficient. What caused that deficiency? I couldn't tell you that without a lot more info.

I do know that, that's why I stated it. and you understood what I said, so why are you picking problems. Move on.
"what caused that deficiency?" He gives more than enough info and I gave the solution.

i agree a full flush and then a feed of 1/2 recommended nutes and big bloom as that is where I think they put the micros (fox farm) looks like lockouts and my bet is high salts in medium

Namaste'

to get technical. Potassium and Boron from the looks of the leaf.
I feel like we have a strong team.

Take a picture of the plant, it's time to really get this operation going

No you dont, and no he didn't, but I'm moving on anyway. You probably have learned much more than I have in your time with your ceiling light fixture and the stool and pink soap and all...

And that's not a potassium def either. Like I said before, calcium, zinc, boron, and it could very well be caused by pH, but then again it may not. There wasn't enough info to make that determination by looking at one picture.

We're all experts now!

No, I won't. I get really sick of people who have no fricking clue what they're doing giving bad advice and then trying to argue about it when someone calls them out. It's dumb. This guy is willing to have someone take his advice and possibly fuck everything up, just so he doesn't look bad for being proved wrong. Again, it's dumb and irritates me beyond belief.

You're vague because you don't know what the hell you're doing. I'm done with this, you can reply back, say whatever, I'm done. Pink soap.

Edit: Go through my post history, yeah, I'm an idiot. Don't know what I'm talking about at all...

it almost looks like rust spots, which can be caused by hard water from an old sink or well water filters work great for getting all that hard metal and sediment out of the water if it was ph or nutes burn wouldnt the tips of leafs die and curl under?

ha, thanks everybody. i flushed the plant last night with tons of water. so if it is caused by the hard water, i should find out tonight. Otherwise, I will resume feeding in a few days. I'll update later with pics maybe.
