Hi thank you b.real and John. I'll take nute burn over pathogen or a growth any day lol, I'd have to comb through my journal and find out all my fertilization dates. if my memory servers me, I watered with maxibloom after a flush 4-5 days ago only a half gallon per plant at 1 teaspoon per gallon. It was a week before that when she was fertilized. if its a burn i guess kali mist likes light feedings frequently like I did during veg and early flower
If its nute burn it looks different from any other area, where mainly the fan leaf tips were effected. It's also strange that its on only that 1 bud. I don't know anything about nute burn except what I have read online, I trust your judgement a lot more than mine
I dont know if this helps but I noticed this yesterday morning, it was only on 2 small bud leaves, I cut those 2 leaves as close to the buds as possible. Within 24 hours it was on 4 more leaves that were in very close to the previous 2
Does incorrect PH look similar to nute burn? like Burnt leaf tips? I'm beginning to wonder how accurate of a PH reading im really getting with my liquid testing kit. I don't know if its even designed for soil use, unless the runoff is clear, which mine is not. Its dark yellow/brownish orange. I think its time to invest in a PH tester designed for soil.
PH below 6.3 in soil locks out phosphorus, Magnesium, and Calcium. I'm still seeing signs of 2 of these deficiencies. I can only conclude that my soils ph is still low, or the new nutes hasn't begun to add enough Macro nutrients yet. I do have burnt leaf tips which is also an indication of either nute burn or heat burn/stress. I believe its nute burn. If I'm still dealing with an incorrect PH than I screwed up big time by adding in nutes after my previous flush. I'll be ordering PH test strips today.
As of now I feel the most important things to master for a beginner are, correct amount of water, keeping track of PH, and correct amount of nutes; less is more.
There are a few charts that vary a bit. I feel this one is the most accurate.
