What is wrong with my leaves?

[coolguy122333]

Hey guys. I've tried adjusting pH, I moved the plants into Ocean Forest soil two days ago, also transferred to fabric pots on Friday. I've been doing pH adjusted water and pH adjusted veg cycle ferts. Here are the leaves. Really not sure why they look like this.

I think a little magnesium might help. The darker veins in relation to the paler leaf can be a sign of mag or potassium deficiency. Since you just re-potted to a quality soil it doesn't make sense that it would be any type of deficiency though. Is it an auto?

Thats my thoughts exactly. I just upgraded to some clean good ass soil so IDK why there would be a deficiency. It is an autoflower seed. Strain is gelato OG

Maybe a tad of transplant shock? Or ph in root zone is not right imo. Like crucialbunny said doubt it is a deficiency as new soil. I normally dont do runoff test in fabric pots as i get salt deposits on outside of pot later into grow which taints runoff ph but since you just put them in it might be ok to test to see what ph is in root zone. Just spit-balling.

My guess is that maybe the soil is too low pH and I'm adding pH lowered water so the roots might be way too low in pH. I'll measure runoff water later tonight and let you guys know though. I doubt thats the issue. Also since it's an autoflower, should I start flowering soon or will it do that automatically? I wish I Had more time to veg since the plants are still small.

Also to mention the plants are about week six or seven now.

If nothing is environmentally wrong then i would guess it is a genetic issue though if roots got damaged in transplant it just may be having issues up-taking nutes and showing deficiencies. If auto it should start flowering automatically though occasionally an "auto" seed doesnt have the ruderalis gene. I feel you should see flowering pretty soon. If not then it may be a non auto auto.

It's to soon to tell after transplant, add a little cal-mag to your water cycle. make sure to raise your pot for air flow underneath. and give her a week or two to snap out of it. She'll flower when she's ready, and I give autos light 24/7. Patience.

How do I get air flow underneath? My guess now is that it's something with the roots. I've been ensuring all the water going into the plant is proper pH, and considering my soil is OCean Forest I doubt the pH is an issue, also since the leaves aren't wilting or dying, only discolored.

More than likely calmag deficiency. I'll add some with water tomorrow.

I also picked up some silica booster.

just put a wire rack over your catch tray, you only need an inch or so.

[Mr.furley]

What is your PH numbers?

[coolguy122333]

I flooded the soil once and had about a bucket of runoff and since then I've had a ton of runoff. THe soil looks so dry all the time. And it's very dry in most parts. Do you think that I washed out all of the nutes? I've since then stopped watering as much.

[Mr.furley]

It for sure didn't help it, stick to watching it for a week with the water practice we discussed and see if she is getting better, worse case is you will need to feed liquid nutrients early then expected.

[coolguy122333]

Hey, the plant looks to have gotten worse. I started CaliMagic two days ago and it seemed like it helped for a day but now I have minor brown spots on the leaves.

[PRIMO]

coolguy122333 Kinda like this Any box store in the shelving dept.

[coolguy122333]

Legit just added the wire fencing like how you have yours so they no longer sit in a puddle when they drain. I'm gonna get tops like that tomorrow.

pH tested fine from runoff. I'm gonna get some calmag tomorrow and do a few doses of that. Also ordered the silica booster, when should I dose that?

[coolguy122333]

Ok ph runoff was fine. Also added a wire rack for air flow. I suspect this is definitely a calmag issue so I'm gonna dose that tomorrow. Cant wait for the plants to take off after that.

Should I even buy nutes for this grow? I feel like the fresh soil is enough since the seeds are autoflower and will prob be flowering in a few weeks.

Patience pays off with autos, just chillax dude you'll see.

Ik im not rushing it I actually want it to not flower soon bc I want more veg time. The plants kinda small rn.

[coolguy122333]

Just thought of something. Could it be light burn? or bleaching? My light setup is this. I have three of these T5 Grow bulbs, I'm not sure what they're rated at, I think 25 watts. Then I have a single bulb fixture of an LED thats rated at 125 watts. I have two plants under these lights.

[coolguy122333]

My plants have gotten worse. It's so weird, its weird because not all of the leaves are like this. Some branches have perfectly healthy leaves and new growth. I'm getting worried because the brown spots are new. Could this be a deficiency? I literally just changed the soil to fresh soil about a week ago.

[coolguy122333]

More pictures. I see nitrogen toxicity in a few leaves that are curling downward? WTF I haven't even been dosing nitrogen and the leaves are also not super dark so what the heck. Here are more pics.

[Mr.furley]

Can you take pictures of the whole plant and set up, give them some cal/mag, I don't see any nitrogen toxicity.
