Awesome guys thanks. I will start by checking my pH and if that’s not it I will try calcium. It’s in flower so spraying with fungicide is out let’s just hope that’s not the issue lol.

If it’s fungal you’ll be treating the roots, not the leaves. The leaves are showing symptoms but the problem is in your rootzone, if the diagnosis is correct that is.

If you haven’t been over watering, probably good idea just do both/all at the same time, flush through with phd water plus minimum amount base nutrients with a small amount of added cal mag for starters..if anything locked out will help with that too

[smokachoka]

Got it. I will try these things and see what happens thanks dgc

I’ve also had that on my leaves growing in happy frog. I’ve read and seen that it could be a fungal issue called leaf septoria. I got it on one of my blueberry muffin plants and it kind of persisted through the grow but I also cut them off every time I saw them. Has not affected the buds though and I’ve read that it doesn’t infect the flower. Just the leaves. My advice is to cut them off and keep up on the nutrient and mineral feeding.

What if anything have you added to the happy frog. How long of veg, size of pot.

if nothing was added I’d say deficiency, most likely calcium. In that case add calmag.

have you been using Epsom salt, amending, or feeding it?

[sicko_grows]

So don’t quote me but one scenario I could see calcium not being available is if Epsom was added heavy, magnesium and calcium like to pair up and the mag in the salt would bind up free calcium making it unavailable to the plant.

i dont think its high ph because of a similar reason, when i see high ph usually ill see the the dark stripes i associate with low mag along with rust spots. Since I dont see a lack of mag I ruled that out.

since there are no visible bugs( I’llassume you checked your roots also) that’s out

[Sharpshooter291]

@sicko_grows hard water! Lol If he has hard water then he should be adding cal mag anyway, or filtering the water, but I find filtering water needs to be done with thought to not introdicing pathogens that can build up in water filters..

[sicko_grows]

That’s cool never thought about adding cal mag to hard water. I know the saturation index of calcium does have multiple peaks. Been a while since I’ve messed with water like that, but wouldn’t adding calmag to hard water push up your EC and increase the chance of toxicity? Maybe I’m misunderstanding what you wrote.

[Sharpshooter291]

…so just add some cal mag instead lol..the suggestion to ph and flush through with min ferts and some cal mag was to address possible cal deficiency and help make sure nothing being locked out. All actions without general detriment if the issue wasn’t due to the cal deficiency. Flush through would also remove excess of anything, a fresh start..as long as he hasn’t been over watering, as that would be bad decision to flush through whilst already over watered

If it is nutrient, a foliar spray will be your best fast attack. Make a compost tea, safe for flowers and all.

[sicko_grows]

Foliar in flower tho?

[Thickems]

Absolutely, i have done it for years. Its all organic, plant takes it in just fine. Never even burnt a hair from it.

[Sharpshooter291]

I agree sicko, even if it’s organic!

[Steven_Dahman]

I remember when I was younger, I asked an experienced grower some advice about a problem with a grow I had. I didn’t take his advice, I took the advice of another inexperienced grower, and it took me a really long time to find out it was exactly what the experienced grower said it was.

[purp-terp-pheno-god]

You should never foliar in flower. Too much of a risk to develope mold, mildew and bud rot. Maybe the 1st week before any swelling happens, but after that, the risk vs reward isn’t significant enough to warrant it in 99% of cases. Even pesticide applications.
