Can anyone diagnose this?

[MrGreenThumbs]

This little girl (Midnight Purple) has got some funky brown spots growing on a fan leaf, not sure what it could be. Only thing other than water I have given to her was a very small amount of liquid miracle grow mixed with water. I currently have a 150 Watt halogen about 11 inches from the plant. The other issue that I am having is the top leaves are beginning to curl inwards, is this because the light is too close and a result of heat stress? And yes, I know the tin foil is a bad idea... Any help would be awesome!

Burned her. Flush her with 3 times the amount of water to soil. Ph of 6.0 and let her dry. After that I would transplant her. Soil mix? Temp? Humidity? Age? Size of pot? Might try some other nutes than MG. 1 part nutrients are the easiest to start with.

I agree with "Brainy" Flush her and then try different nuti's. Remember sometimes "less is more" give her half the recomended nutrients then step up from there. If you are using hydro you may want to give B.C. nutrients a try.

Grow on!!!!! :smokin:

Halogens are not that good for this either, sorry.

good idea, hey brainy I have some questions regarding your areo grow. I have started with 4" PVC feed nutrients from top and drain right out its my frist hydro grow. How often do I feed am I going to have problem with root system, how much can a plant produce and what do you mean about produce every 3 weeks. I have grown a few plants outdoor using Mircle grow and it turn out preety good. I am a little nervese about this grow its all new to me, I am about 5 days in veg, cangrow plants to about 4ft not sure how long to veg or when to topand idea on how to make busher than taller. Sorry about the long quote, but I saw your areo grow and was inpressed, looks like what I set up. I hope my girls look like yours.:stoned:
