Leaf discoloration and stem color changing

Ok so i moved this girl from upstairs out a closet and only under 73ppf. Now shes been underneath the stairs in my grow closet at 100 percent power from a marshydro ts1000. The closest cola is 15" from the light. I used Epsoma garden tone to feed her on 11/10/24 and watered her again today. I am not sure if i have a roblem going on or not. This is a different strain than the last and the colors are totally different since she was put under the light. If any OGs could offer me some sound advice id appreciate it. Heres my setup as well

It’s hard to say much without understanding the runoff pH and PPM. You likely have multiple problems arising from the use of Miracle Grow products. MG products contain time release nutrients that nuke your plant with nitrogen and submarine your pH every time you water. Despite the excess nitrogen, the plant likely isn’t absorbing it due to a very low pH.

If they were mine I would transplant them into a soil that is acceptable for cannabis. I wouldn’t ordinarily recommend a transplant at this point, but there is no other way to address the issues. Your pots are pretty small and a transplant to a larger pot will be helpful.

Fox Farm soils, Roots Organic, Coast of Maine, or Black Magic are all good soil options.

Bluelab and Apera both make quality pH and PPM meters.

Purple stems are normal.

Looks hungry. The soil is depleted by now and she wants her bloom nutes i think. I do not know the nutes you gave but organic takes a week to prepare the nutes. Slower than synthetic.

Thx for the feedback. I think itd be almost impossible for me to repot but maybe ill try it . Isnt there a possibility that the shock from transplanting in the middle of flowering could kill her?

2 Likes

Yes, its possible, but it’s not going to matter much unless your issues are corrected. A plant with that many issues won’t produce much.

If depleted just pick up some bloom stage nutrients. A top dress. Can use synthetic for quick fix but if staying organic dry ammend is most used. Soil is ok now. Any time released nutes are gone more than likely. MG got on the cannabis train.

It’s not going to matter much if pH is out of whack. The plant won’t absorb whatever you feed it.

10-4 i will try that approach

Nope. It will not. Get right on ph. Not hard. Just start putting it in at 6.5 and she will turn.

I used epsoma garden tone almost a week ag

A ph testing pen. An apera or some such. Use it to test ph before watering. Ph up or down to get it to 6.2-6.8.

Thanks ,i also forgot to mention ive been using a banana tea as a potassium booster so maybe that along with it being cold and changing from a 73ppf light to a 1000ppf light at 15 inches above canopy

If you do transplant which I agree is the best option for fixing unknown issues, you won’t kill her if you are careful. Get the pot she is going into ready and work the sides of the pot she is in to loosen the rootball so she slips out easy.

My girls live in 4 homes from germ to harvest and I have had to transplant a girl 3 weeks in and she was fine. Lookin for pics or it didn’t happen.


Never had to do it before and hopefully never will again.
After the transplant and rebound.

and the finish

Am i supposed to discard the soil shes in and if so how.do i not damage her while dling so? I kinda have an idea but am asking for a different viewpoint. Im so pissed i used miracle grow orgnic soil because i made my own soil medium last grow and never had an issue. It grew amazingly, now after seeing someone on reddit said they had good luck with it since it was organic and that they had changed their lineup to not hurt marijuana but i see that was a huge mistake on my part.
