Hello to all

I'm a new grower and I have about 10 plants so long and three of them don't look good. I don't know where I did wrong so can you help me out. Im not sure if it's PH deficiency or what.

Im afraid that they will die :(

Just this guy, ya know?
Take what I say with a grain of salt, but I feel like that might be a potassium deficiency. It looks like they are taller than the other plants, which might mean stretching, and the curling, burned looking leaves also make me think that. I think the tips are supposed to turn UP though, and that looks like excessive clawing which is why I'm not sure and offer the salt :D

to me...

those specific plants looks: Over watered, Too much nitrogen(could be ph also) and a potassium deficiency

Also, it takes a fair amount more than these few issues to kill a plant that is that established. stress it out and stunt them, maybe, but flat out kill.. i highly doubt you will suffer casualty

Over fertilized I would say. Flush the media out well with pH correct water. You should start to see them recover.

Can you share what nutrients you use and how much?

Also temp, rh, and any other details will help us diagnosis.

No worries, the plants are salvageable.

I agree it's got the rams horn thing going on pretty hard could be too much N or the ph locking out other nutes. Or could just be nutes burn like Lester said need more info on what kind of nutes and how much your feeding them.

Lol dankwolf I'm always getting paranoid about mites after my recent run in with the broads. I find myself whipping out a jewlers loop at least once a day and scouring my seedlings now that I've started back up. I starved them out of my room over 2 months and no sign of them.......yet(knock on wood:hide:)

Thats what id do because if its isn't a nutrient imbalance its ph messing with availability. I might add h2o2 to the flush. I haven't decided its really needed but it wouldn't hurt to get some oxygen to roots and clear up any filth. After that id wait till pot is light before watering again.

Thanks for your help. I'll flush them and see how they are doing.

I'm from Arabic country so I use some local nutritions for hydroponics. And the first thing I notice is when I use it it dropped the ph levels to 5 then I correct the ph to 7 cause I grow in soil.

I never go above 1100 ppm. I always try to use just a little as possible.

Many thanks to u all for helping me

Love you all

Overwatered, salt buildup, ph etc. Give them a flush with a low dose of nutrients, (.4 to .6 EC, PH 5.8) and then let them dry out. Lift the pot after flush to gauge the weight when wet and once 3/4 dry feed again EC 1 to 1.2 and PH 5.8 to 6. Theyll come back no problems. You can water as much as you want as long as the plants have some dry time. Feed to runoff.

It looks like it might be pest related. Probably mites. If the other plants begin to show the same issues, then almost definitely mites.

one thing i have seen plants do given proper ph food,then the plant starting,using less water and it can b the amount.i don't know if this wud help to water until pot starts to gain wait,proably depends on pot size....just saying....peace mm/

Bang on.

Likely overwatered as well.
