looks like a trace mineral deficiency of some kind, definitely something immobile. I would suspect that your pH is a bit on the high side.

Ditto what Emilya said. Improper PH can do a lot of bad things by locking out nutrients.

i just checked ph of watter i yesterday wattering - it was 5.2 ph

 

[Emilya Green]

if that is soil, proper pH is 6.5

if soilless mix, proper pH is 5.8

what should i do now?

what should i do now?

water correctly at 6.5 pH.

Flush and use a flush agent to remove salt build ups, it might be causing the issue with the ph.

Hey BobtheGrower. It's hard to say what you should do now because we don't know WHY your pH is so low. There could be several reasons: 1. Like Emilya mentioned- the pH of your water could be off (esp if you are using liquid nutrients and not adjusting the pH before applying them), and 2. like stoner314 said- if you're using liquid nutrients, you could have a case of the nutrients and/or byproducts from the nutrients getting stuck in your medium when the plant really wants them out, but there is also 3. the possibility of your soil being imbalanced with either not enough minerals or too much organic matter - this can make your soil very acidic as well. Another option would be to 4. check how much you're watering. If your watering too much (ie. not letting the soil dry out enough), available organic nutrients in the soil can become concentrated because of an upset in the fugal/bacterial balance causing an acidity problem.

Malformed leave where one side grows shorter than the other is an early sign of a ph issue. Happens to my clones all the time when they are in the dome for too long, fix the ph and you will be fine.
