NL getting sick?

[Renaissance Redneck]

Almost 10 pm, on a Sunday, first snow is hitting the window, and NL is going to the infirmary!


The fan leaves getting banged up are all deep and shaded, maybe this is normal?
My soil salts should be fine (I try to water deep, then let dry), but I just gave her ph'd water 'til runoff, and followed that with with a gallon of bubbled water mixed with a tsp MG quick start, 1/2 tsp molasses, and a tsp of Alaska 5-1-1.
The spotting has me thinking cal/mag, the leaf yellowing maybe N def, the vein color maybe necrosis?
PH in is buffered to 6.0, pH out is at 6.5.
Oh, yeah, I've just been swarmed with what I think are fungus gnats, so I top dressed with some DE.
Any thoughts? (Besides Prozac ).
Thanks, all!

Looks like she is ready for flower nutes,no more quick start.I wouldn't worry about the yellowed leaves but you should give her some cal-mag.Give her molasses every other water but raise the dose to 2tsp per gallon.If she still gets light green leave feed her fish food at One tbl per gl.

Thanks, namvet25!

I added 1.5 tsp of molasses and 3 tsp fish goo this morning to match your recommendation.
Huge improvement! I'm still seeing some slight yellowing in the veins on the newer leaves, but I'll give it some time (I don't want to turn her into a smoking hole .
The MG quick is all I have right now... it's a 4-12-4, but as of 20 minutes ago I have the Rock Plant Products lineup en route. Nam80232 did a great thread on these. :tiphat:
+ reps, namvet25! From me and my gals and a half!

Looks like brother Nam'25 got you covered! The yellowing is a normal part of this final stage, starting typically with lower, older fans; it'll increase steadily as you get closer to harvest, as the plant taps into these expendable sources for extra nutes; LOL!- it does kinda look like N defc., in that the overall color is fading, more or less evenly,... extra Ca-Mg at this stage is often needed as well; molasses has a nice dose of K in it too, BTW :thumbs:.... get 'skeeter dunks for the gnats! One round of this kept them at a bare min. for the rest of the grow! I found granulated packets at OSH, otherwise you can crumble the 'doughnuts', toss them into a water pail, and let it hydrate and 'wakeup' the bacteria in them (A little molasses/honey in the water will boost this along faster)...-yup! bacteria, nearly the same strain that's used to kill caterpillars in that foliar spray,... Once it's in their bodies, it FUBAR's their guts! ....Glad to hear quick results! Amazing, huh? :smoke: PM incoming... then off to redo the post at home thread!

Yeah, waira, I've got a 3 lb bag of feed grade DE, it keeps me from having to hose the chickens down with Agent Orange! :
I think I freaked 'cause it was late, I'd been way more focused on the Fast Haze snipping, and suddenly BOOM!
I got spots, I got fade, tips curling... the only reason I didn't completely melt down was they all seemed to be inner, older leaves... I'm thinking the N and cal/mag did the trick, but too much N scares the hell out of me at this point.
I really feel like I should have a 0-16-16 or something along those lines on my shelf for this final stage.

No kidding? Chicken pest control! *** Plants still need to have some N around at all times, as it's critical for many things (amino acids especially; there are the 'lego' blocks proteins are made from); this is why in most all bloom nutes' you still see some N added! I'll look up that line of nute's you ordered, and see what-up!

 

[Renaissance Redneck]

How many times must you save my ass?!
I like the nice flow of Urea N, with very little ammoniacle in it, I'm just afraid of addressing P & K issues, and even cal/mag, with added N.
Can you tell our next grow is coming? : I'm double-over thinking EVERYTHING right now!!!
Maybe a 2-16-12?... :Stones slap:
BTW, for all the info and support!

...LOL! Honestly my friend, not even once! All I've done is point out some potholes in the road, and help navigate some,... the rest has been fine driving by you! :High 5:

Shit! We did it again! you added on while I was writing,...:Stones slap: LOL!.... I still have to check out your new nute' line-up,... You've been using very mild stuff bro', so troubles, if they come, will likely be on the defc. side of things,... check out Snipers current grow, and look at the beginning where he talks about his nute' regime....He's a damn fine grower, and very KISS about this in particular! You'll see the analysis #'s on the ferts, dosage, blending during transition,... it should give you some nice calibration on this subject :thumbs: ... the 2-16-12, is this off something you're using now? It sounds fine, still pretty mild, and if you still do some poop-tea on occasion, should still provide sufficient N... When you have bigger plants, the milder stuff often just isn't enough to keep up with demand, because of how much the draw, visa-versa for smaller ones....LOL! this is part of the difficulty with autos, Red! Their photo' cousins are far less pissy about the nute thing,...we talked some about the variability with autos... *** Thanks brudda for da *smeck*! :head:
