Brown shriveled leaves, I think mold. Second opinion? (pics included)

[Socratic1]

Recently i have seen individual leaves crumble into a brown, moldy looking ball...maybe it's obvious, but I was hoping to get a second opinion.

it could be a number of problems:

Tell us about everything including:

The Ph of your water (is it well or municipal?)

What you're feeding and when

What additives you used

What are these genetics

Amount of sun



They look to be a bit nitrogen deprived, but it could also be a mirco-nutrient problem.

The strain is Cheese, about 70% indica, 30% sativa. They are outdoor, but the area I live in fluctuates between hot and sunny and cold and foggy, always cold at night though, and always windy. Ph is around 6.5 from the tap. I recently repotted them in 5 gallon pots with a mixture of premium potting soil (ph 6.8 when initiall tested) with Bat guano mixed into the soil.Up until the transfer they were being fed Fish emulsions once every two to three weeks. Most of them are tremendously healthy, 3 months old, about 2 1/2 feet tall , trained out and trimmed, there are about 3 dzen nodes on each plant. The moldish looking stuff has only effected two of them. As far as the deficiencies are concerned, I have been more worried about fertilizer burn than deficiencies. I fed them a small dose of the fish emulsions 5 days ago, but I am concerned that fertilizer burn is the issue.What are your thoughts?

Issue, the best thing at this point is to put a sprinkler on the ground and leach whatever's in the soil downward.

Don't wet the foliage, just the soil.

Water for 2 hours, let dry for 2 days and do it again and you should flush the problem out of the root zone.

Looks like fertilizer burn to me, but I'm far from being an expert.

how did you apply it?

For the guanno is best is make a tea and water it in.

I have some very healthy plants and I use the guano mixed with worm castings and make a tea let sit for 48 hours and then apply.

With at stuff a little goes a long way.
