NEED HELP - YELLOW SPOTS

[mikkelgj]

Hi!

Just started growing two Lowryder #2 plants, about weeks ago, indoor, in a medium sized cabinet. Its our first grow. Just noticed about 5 days ago, that some yellow spots started developing on the plants. A little more on one of them. Just transplanted them from their small pots to bigger ones, a week ago.

They are planted in soil, miracle gro, with perlite added as well. we are PH regulating the water, keeping it around 5.5 and 6.5. As for nutrients, the miracle gro has some added nutrients in it. So we didnt add anything for the first two weeks, then for the last week we have added half strength of "Field Marshal VegaGrow".

What is going on, is it nute burns? Is it overwatering? or something else? what should we do?

And also, general qestion about watering, how often should we water them? Is everyday too much?

Help will be much appreciated!!

It likely is nute burn, and watering daily is to much.

MG isn't the best soil, but it has nutes for a few weeks. I also found re-potting a lot, kept most of my nutes up for veg anyway(although I use Fox Farms Ocean). The one time in Veg I added nutes, I to got burned.

Water when the soil is dry, just before the leaves droop. You judge by the weight of the pot(they get pretty lite when dry). Then water until just a tiny bit comes out the bottom. :thumbsup:

Then read, read, read. My theory was, Know before it happened. It worked for the most part too. Yours look good other then the burn by the way. Don't cut or pull the burned leaves either. let them drop naturally, it's less stressful to the plant.
