Leaf issue

[Carisma]

Hello there,

please have a look at the attached picture.
Somehow it appears as if in the middle of the leaf, something is "eating" the green..heh.
I can't see anything particular with a 30x micro, and I may just be too paranoid since only having 2 plants which are not sexed yet, but does anyone know what it could be?

Temp is usually around 25 - 26C, humidity of around 48%.

Can't be the lights, because the other plant in the same pot is doing perfectly fine. So, it's not PH then either... what else?

Thanks for your input.

Cheers,
Carisma

maybe it just weathered'

[smokesalot]

how old are the plants ? how big a pot are you useing ? it might be lacking nutes if you have two plants in one pot

[Carisma]

hi smokesalot,
plants are around 1 month from germinating.
The pot is around 20 litre of soil, they were feeded nutes just a day ago.

Actually, the issue got worse over the night. Where you could see the light green spots is now brown. It's interesting to see that it's only the 3rd set of leaves actually experiencing this. the new ones and the older ones appear fine so far.

I'll update with pics this afternoon.

As promised, here's the pic.
Very strange to me...

It appears that you are killing the plant with nutes.

Whatever it is you are using, stop.

The ONLY nute you should be adding at 30 days is some nitrogen in the form of Bat Guano or pehaps some fish emulsion.

If your soil is any good, you dont need to add any other nutes until you switch to flower stage. And unless your nutes are made specifically for dirt grown tomatos, use one half / one quarter strength.

Hi Harddon,

thanks for your opinion.
I find it a bit hard to believe that it's the nutes, considering that there are 2 plants in the same pot and only 1 of them has this issue on only 1 or 2 sets of leaves. Maybe it's just a screwy plant?

I have given them nutes(canna terra vega) only once and only about 1/4 strength described on the nutes themself.

I'll likely wait with the next watering until I have induced flowering anyway, so I'll be watching the plant with care for the next few days. We'll see what happens.

Cheers,

you have 3 plants in the same pot?how big of a pot are you using?

[Carisma]

Actually, I have 2 in the same 20 litre pot.

I do not intend them to get very big, they should only provide me with enough bud and experience for my next grow and I don't need much :)

[mscaboo]

the problems you are having i beleive are the result of having 2 plants in the same bucket,you probably are going to run into more of ther same.the plants are competing for space.how tall are your plants?

[smokesalot]

well hows it goin with the plants ? also i was wondering if you have tryed flushing out the pot with lots of water and letting it dry out a little before you add anything else and if your still haveing probs maybe add a little nitrogen to help with stress and veg

good luck

[Carisma]

mscaboo,
could well be that it's because they're in the same pot. If only I'd know.
Anyway, the new leaves look fine, though one is stunted to some extent.


smokesalot,
the plants themselfs look nice, attached is a new pic from today. the left one is the one with the strange leaf set.

Very strange.

[smokesalot]

at that size i dont think the roots would be fighting for space but i cant see under the dirt if you think that might be the prob mix up a 75/25 soil/perilite mix and transplant the little shits into a largeer pot to allow the roots room to grow but they look healthy and are produceing new growth your doin a good job keep up the good work keep me posted

good luck

[HARDDON]

One plant will thrive, the other will struggle to survive.

Kill one.

And BTW..that is nute burn you are looking at. Those tiny plants have no business at all getting nutes. They are so small, there is no way they can use the nutes that are already in your medium.

Good luck.

And soon that one mangled leaf will begin to turn crispy and dry and then the next, and the next and so on and so forth.

Peeps you just can't grow 2 plants in the same small container without suffering reduced harvests, lower yeilds and constant struggles between plants.

Life for the grower would be far much more simple if that were the case.

I found out cats like to eat them.

I agree with everyone. I had 2 plants in the same pot, 1 was growing while the other was trying to survive. I transplanted and now they look really good. I would suggest transplanting or kill 1 of them. Those plants are a month old? Here is a pic of a plant I am growing its starting its 2nd week after sprouting. Using regular medium, 150w hps 2-100w cfl's.
