Could be a few things. Post pics and fill out the troubleshooting form.
need to see a pic dude but its most likely mg dif flush your plants and start feeding again in a week or so 1/4 strengh then bring the nutes up weekly 1/4 strengh at a time it must be a big flush dude :thumbsup:
I would fill out the form and post pics before doing anything.
Thanx for the quick reply guy's ,. I will put pics on in 2hrs , light due on then ,. :Thumbsup:Quote:

Pics to follow !
Cant seem to upload pics at the min , so i'll try and describe as bes as i can ,
First i noticed a little brown line on one of the bottom fan leaves , i was keeping me eye on it for a few days and now it looks like its rusting , but now it seems to have move up the plant mostly the fan leaves , some have rusty coloured dots but most have it in the centre of the leaves,. Also the stems are really going purple and leave are going dark green , I think the plant is really stressing now!!
MG ????? SHOULD I FLUSH ?? IF SO WHAT SHOULD I PH THE WATER AT AND WILL IT BE FINE TO USE IT STRAIGHT FROM THE TAP ,MAYBE MIX SOME HOT WATER TO BRING TEMP OF THE WATER UP ???
I'm not an expert in this area. After u post pics I'm sure someone will be able to help. Everything seems ok except that u foliage feed. Quit that. In nature when does god ever foliar feed? The plant has roots for a reason. I know when I water sometimes the lower leaves get wet and it turns them rusty. But like I said I'm no expert at solving others problems.
what and where is a troubleshooting form?? i've not seen anything like that. where do i go look for it??
Yes look at that link, it may give you ideas. d
From the form I see nothing that stands out. Possibly simply a flush....
How big are the plants in 4 gal containers? Chance they could be root bound?
Get a reflector for the bulb, you are wasting 50% of your light
So to summarize,itI could be magnesium/calcium def, nute lockout, or root bound. Mag/cal def is pretty noticeable and does cause central leaf issues as you describe. Regardless a moderate flush could help. Don't wash out all the buffers
Sorry the pic is poor but you can just see it , some leaves are like that and worse, and some have spots that are the same colourQuote:
