I am think its my lights burning it but its spreading.
Its my first grow so i am a bit jumpy, i dont want to lose it now.
Ps i have moved my light up now 2 be sure.
the second pic looks burnt but i'm not sure about the 1st. someone with a little more diagnostic experience could help perhaps? it definetely looks like a defeciency or lock-up of some kind. what's the soil ph, nutes, watering frequency, temps, etc. the more details you give the better.
Well i am not sure about ph as i have not tested the whole grow. I know this isn't the best idea but it has been healthy for many months so far. I intend on getting a ph testing kit for my next grow. The nutes are canna terra and the soil is mirical grow. The temps vairy from 15 deg C and 30 deg C. I water when they are dry down to about an inch. The only main differance i am doing @ the moment is starting to weaken the nutes as it is comming the the end of it life.

What nute % are you using?
Are you dropping water on the leaves?
its about half strength now and no i dont leaf feed just water the soil untill some drains out of the bottom.
could it be chronic overwatering? if the soil is only dry to 1inch before watering that is a possibility. although it might look a bit different than the chronic overwatering pics i've seen on og. i can't remember exactly. where is it at in it's life cycle?
Its almost there mabe a week or 2 more.
i just reread your last post, i'm thinkin ph problems causing various nute lock-outs. if you've never tested the ph then you don't even know what the ph of the nute solution you're watering with. to avoid ph problems, i use 1-2 tsp dolimitic lime per gall of soil and i also adjust the ph of water and nutes to the low 6's before giving anything to the plants. you also should let your pots dry out almost completely before watering. overwatering could also be a problem. i'm just trying to think of possibilities for you to look into.
thanks for the imput i will get ph testing stuff 4 the next crop and be a bit more carefull i think.
do you have any full plant pics and larger bud pics, just curious to see the entire plant?
edit: btw a ph test kit is under $5
i will try and pot some tomorow hopefully as its in dark now
It looks like you spilled ferts on the plant then yr light fucked it all up
fert goes in the soil....ONLY
I now that. I wish i had done that then i would know why it hapened. lol
did you ever mist the plants with h20 only?
no i have never misted as i cant remove the plant from the wardrobe now and mist and electrics dont mix 2 well.
looks like over watering and start of rust
Right sounds like over watering and i think i might have been a little. What can i do, just let it dry out or is there nething else i can do to help it recover.
how much longer you have on them...i would just keep my eye on them ...it looks like its spreading to to tops...they close to done? its hard to tell in that pic.
def let them dry out. over watering is one of the most commom mistakes people make....i call it loving them to death...lol
its not long now i am basicly waiting for a few amber trics and i am picking i am thinking a week mabe a little more.
hey how doesthis plant looks its 5 days into floweringQuote:

We know your a PIMP..
LOL
LOVE
Right i have been gently heating the pots 2 help it dryout a bit faster, this seams to have slowed the rusting. I have also knoticed fresh bud growth on the buds, :D so i am not sure when i will harvest. I will just have to keep an eye on it.
P.s. I will post some more pics soon but my camera is playing up.
Some pics as promised.
its hapened to me ,its the miricle grow ,this soil give loads of nutes probs as itcontains its own on slow release and with you feeding on top the plant gets used to the nutes from the mg soil and your canna terra nutes and when the soil runs out of nutes, usualy about 3rd month and you stop given the canna terra the plant goes into severe withdrawl for a week or 2 turning the buds rusty dont flush her to much and she will be ok but the buds will stay rusty but fine ,
hope this is any use when i experianced this i ditched the mg after that done my brain in but ok for first grow learning process at leasdt you now know its a nono
Good to know. Yeah i think i will get differant soil next time which wont be long. I have cuttings ready and might have a few white rhino seeds comming.:D
hmmmm tested my soils ph 2day and it 5.5ish might explain a few things
find you a good organic pro mix and leave the mg alone. visit a plant nursery. it will pay off in the long run.
Your problem most likely stems from the fact that Miracle grow has ferts in it and then you say...you nuted with canna terra...so, we could surmise that you have burnt them...For future, get sterile soil with no ferts added. or buy 'The GoodShit'Quote:

wait until soil is dry before flushing out ,containers look a little small for root growth,make sure plants don't sit in drainoff water for long,if you can not get to a nute store, use Peters Professional Plant Food(available at Ace Hardware stores and elsewhere) use only 1/3 to 1/4 strength...it has micro nutes too...nute buildup and salts can do a plant like that....make sure it has good air flow and good supply of CO2...K.
Did everyone miss where he said he's never tested the PH!
i have just tested it yesterday. ^^
Just a quick update.

NICE tomato!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well it has been cut down now. I got the ph under control in the end and the dieing leaves slowed a bit. I hope it doesnt happen again on my next lot.
damn that still looks beautiful though...look at those crystals nice man!
Yeah chaos its great for my first grow, it still smokes nice and i will have an idea of weight soon. The only things i really want 2 improve 4 my next grow is the dead leaf thing and mabe 2 get my buds denser.
wait damn i didnt even see the last pic...how long have u been growing that plant for?? how old is it?
about 6 months tops but when i started i was using normal light bulbs and no nutes. Once i got my envirolite i noticed a big differance. I think next time round i wont grow it as big b4 i flower, i ran out of space and had 2 tye her back.
