That almost looks like fert burn but im pretty sure its not. Thos is what Ive done for years working with soil but the numbers should be across the board
1 cup of fine dolomite lime per gallon of soil. Add lime to soil and mix well. It will keep your PH @ a perfect 6.5-7
As far as watering goes: 1/4 tsp of fert (depending where the grow is will determain the fert needed) per gallon of water lept inside grow room. Poke some holes in a gallon jug (milk) add fert and water. Keep in room on floor. Use this for every OTHER day watering to keep fert levels perfect. If water leafs start to turn brown add another day ofnjust waterband adjust fert watering accordingly.
Keep lights 6-8" away from tops of plants on a light balancer. Check height and distance every other day and adjust for growth. I use a 1000 watt metal halide and a 1000 watt high pressure sodium. 18 hrs durring night time and on 6 hrs off for growth. Drop down to 12 on 12 off for flowering. Run C02 inrichment for bigger yields up to 1/3 bigger yields.
When to bud: anything waist high is ready to bud but take clones befor you do. Leach out soil getting rid of all nutrients, take clippings and nthem in a root hormone for aprox 30 seconds- 56 sec. Then straight to a moist root cube and then under some floresents to promote good healthy roots. Hit bud ready plants with a 5-15-10 (but take a soil sample to know exactly) dropping down to the 12-12 and enjoy. Rwmember when you look at the buds the resin glands will just start to turn a yellowish and cut em. There is NO thc in the stem of the plant. I cut the while thing at the bottm for convenience. Dry them s-l-o-w-l-y, cool temps and in the dark.vthe slower, the better the wnd product will be. Harshness gone and will smoke soo nice.
Tjought I’d share my very successful procedure with you all. I was growing skunk Haze number 5’s back in the day. Killer smoke but the beautiful smell almost hot me pinched so I needed a neg ion generator and the smell was at bay again. Dont run them too close to the plants or too big or many of them because they work so well they can take the smell and flavor right out of your precious babies. Dont ask me how I know lol.
I hope this helps at least one person.
If your new to it and like to read check out
Indoor marijuana horticulture. Written by Ed Rosenthal (high times mag editor and writer)
And
Marijuana botomy. Both are GREAT books for the beginner. Follow them and you WILL have good smoke if your starting from good stock of course. REMEMBER FRIENDS: Clones are ALWAYS way better to start from than seeds.
GOOD LUCK ALL!

@Bigbloomer78 Can you tell us a little more about it.

What’s it growing in?

What nutrients have you given it if any and how much how often?

What is the ph of the water/ nutrients given to it?

What lighting is she under?

Also if you could, a picture of the entire plant please.

Where did you get one cup of lime per gallon of soil? Thats your issue. Now your ph is out of whack.

Never add lime until u check your soils ph first. Most soil is already close to 6.5.

Your going to have to get your soils ph back up. I highly suggest repotting the plant in a new pot of fresh potting soil with a tablespoon of lime if any is needed at all.

So I think the original poster was @Bigbloomer78 and they only posted a picture with no context.

The “1 cup per gallon of soil” along witj a detailed description of how successful they been with their mix for years was posted by @Mookandairin and not related to the picture of the sick plant…

Ok, but i wouldnt put one cup of lime per gallon of soil unless my soil needed it. As ya may end up nessing up the ph really bad. Too much lime gives weed smokers cotton mouth.

Holy smokes I didn’t read the one cup of lime!! That soil is more alkaline than celery :rolling_on_the_floor_laughing:
