Burn? Deficiency? Fade? Or all 3?

  • Burn? Deficiency? Fade? Or all 3?

    Posted by lab_grade on October 15, 2024 at 8:15 am

    Over the last week or so I’ve noticed a rapidly advancing set of issues with leaves on my GG4 Sherbert from FastBuds.

    Pictures below. Looks like burnt tips (possible burn) + spotting/ edge burn (possibly p/k deficiency + Calcium) + some yellowing throughout the plant

    medium: Fox Farms Ocean Forrest + FF big Bloom, Tiger Bloom, Grow big + Recharge (weekly nutrient + recharge)

    In 5 gal fabric pots on AC infinity bases

    also looking at about 5/6 of flower out of 8, so might this be an early fade?

    your help is appreciated DGC! 🫡

    That’s a good question….to me id rule out burn!! If that was in my grow room I’d assum it’s the fade just cuz I trust my nute feeding process so well but I’ve never ran ur nutes or that strain but have run ALOT of 420fastbuds and looks similar to the fades I’d get evertime—good luck growmie!!

      Quoted as 7 weeks, just checked the calendar and we’re at 4 weeks and 5 days. Ended up feeding it a 2-15-15 and some cal mag and going to pray. Next week was planned to be the last feeding anyhow so I guess its just cross fingers and pray

    The more I look at tho I’m confused cuz that does look like a pretty early time to be getting a fade….did u cut out the feeding?

      still feeding via the FF nute schedule.

      ironically I was watching a grow podcast (grow talk w/ Mr. Growit) and someone mentioned they always got P and MG deficiency with FF bites in late flower…

      I ended up hitting them with some CalMag yesterday, probably going to hit them with a PK boost today. Fingers crossed…

    To earlty for fade. Looks like a calcium magneseum imbalance, or severe magnisium deficeincy. How are your roots. Definately a nutrient problem.

      Roots look strong, growing through the bottom of the fabric pot into the watering base.

      did have an overwater issue from when I went out of town but they bounced back after that (that was early veg).

    Not fade. You have a slight nute burn on the tips but nothing to worry about there…. Definitely have some out of balance nutes. I’d say magnesium.

    @Dude can you help old boy out?

    Is she a fast flower or an Autoflower plant?

    If it was my plant I would hit her with a sledgehammer watering to try and get the ph balanced then a microbe brew and nutrient mix all at the same time then put a fan blowing down into the medium to help it dry out quicker because of the extra flush of sledgehammer watering!

    Also I have seen the fast flower plants from Fast Buds finish off in 42-49 days of flowering so there’s that too but it was pheno specific ones that were finishing up early early with the fast flower traits!

    burn, too much potassium( lower older leaves interveinal chlorosis) too much K burns leaf edges and locks out magnesium, and looks to be too much phosphorus(tallest flowers leaves that are close to the light) too much P locks out zinc, then iron, then magnesium, in that order( tallest flower close to light)

    more light demands more food and it seems to bring out the toxicity, low light, potassium toxicity wont show up as easy for whatever reason

    i have first hand experience with this, less food next time bro
