    wilting of lower leaves

    Hi all I am a new grower, second crop, and am having some wilting of the lower leaves.
    Auto flowering Lambs Breath.
    GM happy frog potting soil 60% and coco 40%.
    Was told not to feed at the start.
    LED lights California Works 550
    I think it maybe not enough fertilizer so have started to feed.
    I do have one plant that is doing great, same age, only the bottom 2 leaves wilted, its doing fine.

    thanks

    Hey Larry. It looks to me like nute burn. What's your ph like?

      5.5 for ph I know is low. I just gave them some feed, symptoms were there before.

      I have a saying I tell myself "Don't sweat the small stuff" - until sometimes that small stuff ain't so small at all......but if one grows this plant one can expect the abbynormal.

      Your PH is way to low for soil and at 3 weeks you shouldn't have to be adding nutrient. Backing a light off can aid a stressed out plant especially if it's having Nute problems from improper PH.

      What's the manufacturer recommend light distance? 16" sounds close for that led.

    Well from what I see you have a couple of issues to deal with 1 water ph and 2 nutrient of soil. In your soil I see a lot of coco with very little perlite or any other amendment to add better drainage. Happy frog if im correct does have nutes but is coco at a high percentage.
    I would say water ph to 6.0 and if you repot add some perlite straight, to aid air flow to roots. At this stage of growth very light 1/4 nutes listed on label for next 3 week's.and with that light 24 inches for next 3 week's. That height you have them at now is for full flower.🔆🔆🔆

      i have raised the light to 24", trimmed damaged leaves and have added nutes. They are doing much better. I will fix the ph and all should be good.
