Please Help any guidance would be very appreciated!
Hi folks, newer member, first time posting. Few years dirt experience, newer hydro (less than two years). Hydro is a bit more involved and quite frankly can be a pain in the ass.
I have been running into this vein yellowing issue quite a bit recently and I’m going a little bit nuts! My initial guess was a deficiency (maybe cal, mag, iron or nitrogen). After going through my prep notes all seemed good and my ppm (EC) was in my desired range (perhaps a little higher than normal with the CalMag but there isn’t any evidence of nute burn that I could tell). Next guess was LED stress. I measured the PAR value and was low (150 PPFD). Here are some data points:
1. RDWC/aeroponics hybrid
2. PPFD 150
3. Bloomspect S1000 LED (qty 4)
4. 32” from plant at 25% power
5. Humidity 55%
6. air temp 77-81
7. GH flora trio with calmagic ( I add cal/mag as I use distilled)
8. EC 0.7-.0.9
8. Strain LSD 25 Auto
9.water temp averages 72 with hydrogaurd
10. PH target 5.8 , daily range 5.6-6.0
11. Tent(s) Spider Farmer 5x5x7
let me know other specs you may need
let me know if cannot zoom in enough and I can take closer shots.
Cheers folks

Depends on what you mean by dry, if its crispy its dead, if its drooping water it.
IF the roots get to dry they may die and the plant cannot live without them, same for to wet, 'cept its rot.

Hello everyone. If I notice that my plant is dry, with water can I save it or is it too late? Thanks in advance.

Take it off the cement get it out of the intense heat for a few days, water it well give it a rest hope you got lots of holes drilled into that plastic lots of drainage holes. Could be it's sweating to death in that pot effecting roots.

Willycox420 based on your photo's here are my three guesses on the issue -
PH Fluctuation
Magnesium Deficiency
Potassium Deficiency
How to Remedy the situation: (as long as you're NOT using living soil)- Flush the growing medium with 3x the amount of ph balanced water (5 gallon bag = 15 gallons of water) The first 5 gallons mix with1 small 8-10 oz bottle of over the counter hydrogen peroxide. Take your time and allow the water to fully saturate the growing medium. This will reset the nutrient levels in your growing medium.
- Allow your growing medium to dry to the first or second knuckle on your index finger
- Your first feeding should be at half nutrient strength
- Remove all but a few of the damaged leaves for comparison and watch to insure the issue does not get worse and/or spread to other leaves

Plant was started in may, pot is 5 gallons, plant gets rotated often. It’s been really hot and sunny all summer in upstate NY. This is my first grow and it’s a seed I found in a bag. I used regular potting soil from my local store and feed her tap water. I did post on here a few weeks ago and someone mentioned calcium deficiency so I have given it a calcium/ magnesium booster a few times in the reg water.

Sorry for lack of info, this is a 5 gallon pot, I do rotate it, i live in upstate NY the plant does get full sun. I’m inexpierenced this is grown from a seed I found in a bag. It’s just plain old potting soil from my local store. I feed it plain water from my tap, a few times I added extra calcium based on a previous ask on this page.

I just magnified all pics, that first one looks worse but you have an issue all right. Please list soil medium, pot size, age, any nutrients and any other info that may help more experienced growers help you. . Gook luck to you.
