hey guys wondering if some one can help me out here :mad:.. got something going on with my purple urkle that is in coco... im not postive what it is but i think its either magnesium or calcium... or maybe its nute burn not sure
im using full strength of cns17 bloom 2-2-3 and full strength sweet.. i water with full strength everyday then flush on mondays.. i drain to waste and im outdoor... i give her a gallon of water ever morning .. it seems to be a perfect watering schedule for her..
i jsut switched to full flowering nutes after my last flush.. i was using half veg and half flower for 1 week like the bottle says in transition phase.. anyways heres the pics
sorry about the camera phone i lost my cord to my camera :mad:

Well, this is what I think of this situation.
From my knowledge, white leaves mean iron deficiency within the plant because iron is critical for clorophyl production and photosynthesis. I also see that you are using CNS17 Bloom, which tells me that there is iron in your soil. From this, I can guess that there could be 3 things wrong:
1.) Is your pH out of wack?
2.) Are you root bound yet? (I saw your pots and I couldn't tell if they were large enough for the size of your plant)
3.) Iron competes with Zinc and Copper for availability to the plant so, if you have more of these than neccessary, iron may be getting pushed aside.
Check on the first two before checking on the last one!!
Also, you should probably get a second opinion on this because I am in no way a professional. I just work in a greenhouse and read a lot!

thanks for the info... my ph is always at 6.0 and im growing in coco.. my roots are fine and not root bound.. i might through her into a bigger pot maybe... but it could be a iron or zinc or copper
does any one know what cns17bloom is lacking in...? any micro nutes or something ...

not root bound? Really?
Dude...looks like you aren't even growing in a 5 gallon pot...of course you are root bound! I have seen indoor plants half that size fill a five gallon pot!
Without better pictures I could not say what deficiency your girl is suffering from!

At first it looks like tip burn ,But it is not all the leaves. So it maybe water on the leaves burning in the sun. From the pics overall looks pretty good.

like I was saying bickey probably from dropping the cns17 veg. rootbound is less likely the problem because it is coco. but it wouldn't hurt to put it into a bigger pot. when the coco dries out the nute level and ph in the coco rises dramatically. so if it is drying out between the waterings you could be running into deficiencies from the ph fluctuating. try transplanting to make sure that it isn't drying out at all and try using the floranova
