Potassium Deficiency??

Post by Tictok »

Hi All,

My auto brooklyn sunrise plants have been above ground for 8 weeks and three days.

The packet says they ah ould be ready in 11 weeks.

Today I noticed the edges of some of the leaves are turning brown. Researching this it seems it might be potassium deficiency, but I'm not sure as this is the first grow.

I'm using Guano Kalong nutrients, so they had the top dress of guano at week two of flower and I've been using their bloom nutes between 1 and 2ml as recommended.

Temps are good and humidity is good. At around 24c and 45%.
Here's the pic

Or could this be the beginning of colour change due to being a few weeks from harvest?

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers
Tictok

HAve you got a picture of the plant?

Is it green?

Just looks like a bit of burn from the ferts to me.

If you only got 2-3 weeks left, I wouldn;t worry about it. :oik!:
Thank you Marcus, here's the plants as of now:

Hey tictok I'd would agree with Marcus because your leafs tips are little burnt, take it easy with guano stuff they will make you buds pretty harsh if not given a long enough leach or flush what ever the prefers term of that is ..

Good luck and smashing flowers

Thank you Dex and Marcus, that's good to know.

I'd never heard that Guano Kalong nutes can make the flowers harsh, the instructions rekon 1 week of flush but I may extend that a little.

Everyday is a school day! Thanks again.

Its not written in books buddy I said about guano from my experience, if watch green sensation in sure there is guano in that too lol it made my current smoke very harsh with 2 week flush but the plagron guano I use is powder very little amounts too but made bad few buds tho they smelt nice amoke was like razor wire on the throat

Just as a heads up i am still a noob with about two hand full of canna growing experience. But guano has made me more aware of the flush time in previous grows..

Have you used this guano kalong before or is it your first run using it ?

First time and first proper grow. One thing I have learnt is that nothing is written in stone, it seems more of a developing skill of reading your plants.

The autos have wanted less feed, the Sunset Sherbet is a hungry bugger and wants it all and the Northern Lights is just quietly getting on with everything.

Never boring this hobby!
