I have some northern lights that have been in veg for about 4 weeks now. They are a disaster along with the past 2 crops of another strain Ive tried to grow. Ive corrected the PH, Ive made sure not to over water, Ive added worm castings for added nitrogen on top of the nutes Ive been giving Etc. I have no idea where Im going wrong here. My plants look like shit and the closest I can come to finding a cause online is leaf septoria. The leaves (starting at the bottom) slowly lose color, then spots develop, then they get to the point where they look burnt and crispy and fall off. This has happened with the last 2 crops I grew of another strain. If somebody could point me in the right direction I would be much obliged. Thanks in advance. I might add that Ive also used the same pots and didnt exactly wash them out so if it is a fungus problem Im now seeing that could have spread to these plants. I cant keep wasting time and money. Ive grown plenty crops before this and they went great which makes this all the more frustrating.20200223_215742.jpg20200223_215739.jpg20200223_215726.jpg

Hard to say.... pH is high by the looks of the stalks. Think ya need to get back to basics, starting with the grow area. Not dissin ya but anything worth doing is worth doing right. Get a drip system run @ least. You'll overcome this bs!

My advice is to start with a dead medium with no nutes. Then pick a nut line you like and follow it closely. Use this as a baseline for you next crop and make adjustments based on what you see.

Adding things like worm casting etc required that you are familiar with what you are seeing so you know what’s up

They look underfed if the ph is correct underwatered and underfed.... my extra clones that I neglect look like that if I let them get dry and only give them water the leaves look just like that

I just recently fixed my ph issue. It comes out of my tap at about 7.2 but I corrected it to around 6.1-6.4. Ive been looking at drip systems, I think it may be time to get one. Way less to worry about with that. I appreciate your reply and your words of motivation! Ill try to keep you posted! Thanks for your help!

This could be true if they like nutes. I gave them a little extra nutes recently to see if that would resolve the issue and sadly it didnt. Ive been afraid to overwater but havent deprived them too much. I appreciate your reply tho! Everything helps! Thank you.

Going to start fresh and find a new medium forsure. Also may get new seeds as well just to be extra sure Im not carrying over any kind of fungus or anything on clones. Thanks for your reply! I really appreciate it.

if you are using bagged soil , your “ 6.1 - 6.4 “ ph is still off. You should be at 6.5 - 6.7 .
Those leaves get necrotic spots like that from ph swing.

Give us more info about your grow ....
Lights
nutes used
water ( RO/ tap / well )
ppm
Rh
medium
etc.

this is a classic example of over fed plants ;)
