Calling all OG‘s calling all OG‘s need a little help

The black delato And the Mazer x herijuana ( large plants )
Are showing brown spots on leaves ? While the two smaller plants of the same strains are showing no issues whatsoever

I checked pH in the res and it 5 .3 a little lower then I like
Also added trace minerals and calmag

All plants are being fed the same no issues on any other plants whatsoever a bit confused By the situation

Now the plants are heavy as hell & are falling over which is a good thing

I’ll post some pics

Everything looks alike a ph issue

Maybe I’ll raise the ph in th res ?

Here’s a few pics of the issues

Ph in all 4 Octopots is 5.3 starting week 6 going to feed .5/3/3

The back row plants with the problem I raised the ph to 5.8
Front 2 plants no issues at all
Yesterday I added microblast and calmag and Epson salts for good measure

Oh well shit happens
I believe they’ll recover
I need to install more plant yo-yos to support the tall ass branches

Agree, pH too low and missing essential nutrients … beer3|nullxnull

So looks like adding the microblast ( trace minerals/ element)may have helped

raising ph to 5.8 still may be too low I’ll bring it up to 6 .2

What do you think ?

The leaves do look like ones I get when my PH goes out of whack. I used to keep my res at about 5.8 and I found that at 6.0 or something Ben a little higher it does better so now I try to keep it about 6.0-6.2 if I can.

My leaves get like that all the time I’m not growing in water I’m in soil. Touching them. Even the little slightest bit of oil on your hands will burn those leaves overtime. A little sweat. They actually don’t look bad I would get them bad leaves off of there though. I’m fighting rh right now. I have three tents going also. Plus a little front part I’m really having problems with humidity but I got the fans going I’m not worried too much as long as I don’t smell it if I smell high humidity then I start worrying.

The Octopot directions say “The optimal pH range for Octopot Grow Systems is between 6.3 - 6.5”

Do you find that to be too high?

I keep mine no lower the 5.8 but 6 . 2 is the sweet spot

It seem to be

Thanks for stopping by

When I see those marks it’s always a ph issue which unattended can lead into lock up

Glad you stopped by

Peace papalag

I do the same thing. I know it’s a lockout issue. you know what you’re doing. I got one is going to be doing that on me real soon I’m trying to do my best to flush it. The leaves are just way too dark. You growing looks great. I have read almost all of it.

Mad scientist!!! Lol lol nice and cozy. I do like the 3x3.

Man, that heri is big. I have two clones from plants I took to the mountains for some friends, and I’m just getting them started in veg. They may go under lights if I don’t hurry. I don’t think I can get them vegged enough at this point. I was thinking about 20 hours of light maybe but I’m not sure they would be as big as I wanted to start flower.
