This is one of my bb's...it's like three and a half weeks or so out of the soil, growth is fine, but I noticed this on maybe the third or fourth leaf set up...not on any other leaves..nor other plants. Anyone ever seen spots like this before? Not giving any nutes, 18/6 lights...temps 70-85 or so..
Hey markass you might want to start giving them nutes They might be starting to show some def.
bigweed, that's what a friend of mine told me..I just watered them and gave them a bit of schultz all purpose 10-15-10...hopefully this will correct this..thanks bro :thumbsup:Quote:

bigweed...I really thought it was nutes, but problem wasn't solved by giving them a bit..hoping this isn't life threatening to them...that's all I would need..:(
Have you checked your ph of your soil or if hydro check it. Also how your temps and humidty. From the signs they are showing now since you feed them the nutes may be to much. flush them and the next time try giving them less of what you gave them the other day. From what I heard and read blueberry doesnt like a lot of nutes you hav eto play around with your feedingand watering scedule and find that right mix. With my two blueberry plants I couldnt feed them the same as my other seedlings I gave them 1/4 strengh of nutes instead of half.:rastasmoke: :rasta: Im high right now.:hippy:
not sure what I would need to check ph of soil..? umm problems showed before nutes..gonna use more water and less nutes next time..was thinking may be heat stress...plants grown up a bit and I had lowered light the other day...I raised the light 4-5 inches and hopefully won't see this problem worsening...Quote:

My plants do that somtimes with their leafs.. I doubt that its a nute problem. I contibuited mine to heat.. or PH
rember if you have signs of nitrogen def,,, Yellowing leafs,,, They will not turn green again once they have some nitrogen in them.
Are you leaf stems Purpal? or the veins that run up the stalk of the plant are they Purpal?

I was thinking heat...backed light away a few inches and hoping it may help..thanks for advice :thumbsup:
To check my ph in soil I use one of these. Id try that to raise the light a bit. I wouldnt stop feeding them nutes just give at 1/4 strengh and see how that works. Heres the pic of my soil tester.:rastasmoke: :rasta:Quote:

also, every bb i've ever grown showed nute burn on the first leaves after the first feeding, and followed up with explosive growth.
i hope this helps mark...
scarlet, today I left my closet door open while I was at school and when I got home it was hardly over eighty...doing everything I can to provide adequate ventilation...Quote:
