has anyone seen this before, I was a little rough during transplant to break up root ball but it almost looks like light bleach even though it was second day under HPS and a solid 30 inches away from light Issue1 by nippie posted Nov 2, 2016 at 9:41 AM and on an off note, heres some girls under led Led by nippie posted Nov 2, 2016 at 9:42 AM
t5's 96 watt per fixture. they even had a 'zero day' which was basically just side light when first thrown over into flower in my garden so they don't get stressed It's odd, it's mostly tops affected, not all tops though, but there's a few large fan leaves mid way down also effected. They had a great root system but it seemed a little different. I started using 6 qt pails that are square during veg and it seems that it changed the root system vs smaller 4 qt round ones (sounds crazy I know, don't know if it's a fluke or shape of container) anyways the bottoms of the 6 qt pails seemed to be a heavier concentration of roots vs the round which always has things evenly distributed thru out. I broke them up during the transplant so they grow evenly thru out the 5 gallon bucket but then i got this. I'm not sure whats up, was it just a rough transfer or if its light bleaching which frankly i would be hard pressed to think is the problem. It's an older bulb (9 months) that I actually meant to change before I even turned on and it's a solid 30" if not closer to 3 ft from the light
Do me a favor nippie. Please take a picture with the hos off so I can see the actual color of the problem. Thanks.
i'll get a picture up this afternoon, i may just snip the dead/dying out but would like to know what caused it
not the best representation, had to take a quick shot and grabbed the first plant that i seen, will try to get more but even that shows what i'm talking about,
It kind of looks like a minor iron deficiency. The leaves normally get more of the bleach look. Mane breaking up the roots caused the plant to stop taking up nutrients efficiently.
I concur. Weird shit can happen the first week or so after breaking up a root mass. Sometimes entire sections of a plant can die away while the other half grows like crazy. See it once in awhile when transplanting mom's.
should I just trim things up and ride it out? was worried it may effect bud sites since a few tips were hit. But not sure if I should try to foliar feed or add anything to feed
Dunno brother. I'd just let the plant ride it out and watch that no dead shit sticks around long enough to be a problem.
Those buds look awesome!!! (As I chant "led, led,led"). I am no master but it does look like a nute deficiency on those leaves. I would let it ride.
I've seen the same thing as well when I go from solo cups to one gallon pots for vegging, usually when I break up the bottom of the roots too. I say it's the result of trauma to the roots & you should just ride it out Sweet looking buds non the less !!
