Flower day 15.
In this entry I'll explain nutrients (fox farm liquid 3 part) when, how often and what type I use. (Not as directed)
while pruning during veg I left many leaves towards the lower canopy. (Notice the discoloration)
This discoloration is what I use not only to tell me when to feed but what type of nutrients are needed. N,P, or K.
Nitrogen is the yellowing you see, starting from the tip to the base, continuing until the leaf falls. Along with a minor deficiency of phosphorus and potassium, seen as black spots or curling and decay of the tips and edges of each leaf. Causing crispy edges or tips.
Here you can see a slight darkening of each leaf tip, also known as nutrient burn. (this was due to previous lockouts and overfertiization, ignore this). Look at new growth for overfertiization (nutrient burn). I'm using the picture as an example.
Although it is possible to confuse this with nutrient lockout. Or immobile nutrient deficiency. The characteristics of this burn can also tell what type of nutrient is in excess. Similar to the lower canopy.
