Of all the mite species that are pest to plants these two seem to give growers the most trouble. These mites for their size can deal out a lot of damage to a crop/plant and because of their size they are hard to spot early enough to prevent damage. Broad mites have 4 life’s sages […]
Leaf Septoria or leaf blotch is known to cause damage to many crops and cannabis is no exception. Usually affecting lower leaves this fungus tends to be seen most in early spring and summer and not as much in winter. When dealing with early onset of Septoria you will notice chlorotic specks that become irregularly
Leaves are becoming yellow and developed brown spots. You will see first signs of a manganese deficiency in the stem of each leaf, yellowing between the veins and then moving toward leaf tips. As the deficiency progress’s you will also see stunted growth as well as leaves cracking and shredding apart and falling off. Because
Molybdenum an essential micronutrient Molybdenum is a micronutrient utilized by your plant to synthesize amino acids and is needed in very small quantities. Molybdenum also helps in nitrite/inorganic phosphorus conversion to usable forms to uptake. Toxicities and deficiencies in cannabis are rare with deficiencies being the more common of the two. Deficiencies can be easily
Nitrogen Deficiency Nitrogen One of the Big Three Major nutrients: Nitrogen in its most common forms used by plants, Ammonium, Urea, Nitrate need to be readily available in your media, in order for proper growth at all stages of plant life. Nitrogen is a mobile nutrient moving around the plant as needed. Nitrogen has a
Nitrogen Toxicity Signs of Nitrogen Toxicity: Plants that are showing signs of nitrogen toxicity will be affected differently at different stages of life for example young growth and young pants can show the telltale dark green leaves as well as a claw like look. But older plants that are in flower might have enough energy
Nutrient burn is more often than not something every grower has dealt with at one time. Your plants like to eat, sometimes they eat more then they need so when your feed solution has a very high E.C, or PPMS, you will see this very common reaction on your plants. There are benefits to a
Overwatering is mainly an issue for soil or substrate-based media the reason for the effects can be also seen in hydro but since it’s so unlikely we will only talk about overwatering/overfeeding your soil-based plants. Overwatering Is not always a result of simply watering to much but more that you have been watering too often.
Identifying Plant Pest For growers one of the worst issues to deal with are insects or other pest that survive off your plant and will more then often kill it or reduce its health/yield. In IPM, Integrated Pest Management, like many facets of growing prevention is normally a simple process but when your preventative controls
