hello all,
i kindly need your experts advice.
i have one girl, now at the beginnign of her 4th week of flowering.
she had a rough life, overcame severe problems twice (necrosis spots at week 2 of veg and all around pale color at week 4), and now she's having another issue.
leaves all around the plant are getting this brown-purple tan, at the moments this is only seen on the top side of the leaf.
it seems that the pistils are also getting colored and im afraid this is not phenotype.
this problem is spreading fast and im afraid it will have severe consequences that won't allow her to finish properly.
as i mentioned, this is the only female i have so i must not screw this up.
i also have a male which i kept for pollination (outside the grew room) and he doesnt show any of the signs the girl is showing.
i did a mistake using a pre-fertilized soil of unkown origin and im afraid this might be the cause of all the problems. but now it's too late to change that so im trying to adjust and so i feed her little dosages of ferts with little amount of mollasses and only feed her once a week. i was under the impression that the soil is heavily fertilized so hence my feeding schedule, but i might be wrong and maybe the problems are due to lack of ferts? idk...
please view the pics and the info below and advice
thanks!
