Whats wrong with my BlueDream Hydro? picture diagnosis

[IPuFF]

Running hydro outdoor, noticed some leafs were getting droopy and almost looked like an nitrogen deficiency.

just flushed the res a couple days ago and added some bleach because the roots were getting pretty brown. No sign of rot, just stain.

Appreciate if anyone could help me fix this. Was hopping for this baby to put out some good smoke.

more o2 and better dont use h2o2. little n def is no prob, theyre good looking

I am not a plant doc. That is a healthy plant except for that one branch. I would want to know why. Good luck

looks like some sort of rot or fungus. Maybe lower humidity and more airflow.

answer to your question

answer to your question

Yes it's "n" you over didi it, just flush, remmemder no "N" during the flower stage . the second answer would be a watering problem; over/under, but that's not the case

Thanks ! i woke up this morning to it being a little worse and spreading to another branch.. I ll knock the N down a bit.. I been using a 1:2 ratio of GeneralHydro micro:bloom. Hopefully see some results soon.

Looking closer at the plant, the effected area is restricted to one large branch. Is it possible that the part of the root system that feeds that branch got damaged? it is slowly getting worse on that branch.

 

[paladin420]

Yes. Any sign of gnats?? Any specks in your water? A flush with lite bleach should hav helped.

Any thing boring into that branch? This is outdoors correct?

It looks to me like normal late cycle leaf yellowing. I'd reach down there and pull those leaves off and discard them... they're not doing anything anyway. Look the buds over on that branch and make sure you don't have the start of some mold like botritus. That plant looks WAY too healthy to be suffering from any 'deficiencies'.

good luck!

correct, leaves tend to "yellow" when nearing harvest, this is because of "N" defiecncy which you want, bleach scares me!

Its not flower losing leaves for sure. Because it apears only on one branch, and doesnt looks like that. Branch wasnt demaged, LTS to hard or broke by accident? I see blue string up on it. Deficiency or over fert allways occure on all plant structure. This kind of problem is branch problem. Something could attack it check for tiny inhabitants. Post the answer if you find it.

More than likely you have some root damage. It could also be that just a small part of the root zone is not getting enough water and oxygen.

It is common for some hydro systems to have "dead" spots or areas where the water flow and 02 is scarce or "off".

This also relates to proper water levels so that the ENTIRE root zone is covered meaning the entire root zone is getting ample amounts of water and oxygen.

It is for sure NOT a nitrogen issue, if you had to much nitrogen the plant would be really dark green in color and also would show "Clawing" of the leaves which yours do not show at all. A problem with Nitrogen either to much or not enough is VERY easy to visually "see" the symptoms and very easy to fix as well.

It is also a VERY common MYTH about the amounts of nitrogen needed for flowering. Test after test with tissue sampling shows the plant uses MORE nitrogen in flower than it does in a veg cycle, and not just a little more but a lot more! The LAST thing you want to do is cut back your nitrogen during the onset of flower (transitions) and you should not really start to cut back on the nutrients until about week 5 or week 6 depending on strain.

I think your nutrients are probably just fine.

You for sure need to find the root cause of this issue or you might see it again!

The branch that is wilting like that is experiencing problems due to rot in the stem, probably near or just below the surface. Be very careful about the watering schedule. It is very common for this kind of rot to continue its way around the stem, disrupting the vascular system, and more and more branches will begin to wilt independent of the other healthy branches. Hopefully you will get all the way to harvest before any more branches become affected by the interior rot that is occurring.

As far as I know there is no really good way of dealing with it. But being very careful to water as sparingly as possible is probably your best bet and pray for quick maturation of the buds.

I had the exact same thing happen to a couple of my Sensi Star plants and I ended up losing two or three branches to the rot-induced wilting before I could get to harvest time. It was a sequential process whereby a few days elapsed before each additional branch was affected after the first signs of this problem.

Good luck!
