hey,
so this is my plant , its jock horror and its 23 days old. every thing is going great . tho.... what r those rusty spots on the fan leaf ? i have it only on 3 leafes that have that and the one in the pic is the worst condition , check this hole in the finger next to it , i dont think i have animals in there and i have it only in one leaf. allso, there is another pic of old fan leaf that slowly dies. should it ?
thank you,
peace,
eezee.

Mine has them same spots. look on the bottom of that leaf and i bet you will see small black dots on it. Those are spider mites.

My guess is #11 from here.

Manganese - Mn gets locked out when the pH is too high, and when there's too much iron.

Know the ph of your soil/water?

thanx bobby , this might be it . i'm gonna give it a try. will have to find some Manganese (Mn) for them. about my ph, there is some issues...
i'm growing with peat base grow mix , ph is 6.5 . now about watering them, i get different opinions , some say it should be 5.5 - 6 ph some say like soil between 6-7 . both with success. i go with ph 6. any body have an opinion on this one ?

I have always been told,(and have read many different places lately) that the optimum level should be between 5.5 and 6.5, so I have always tried to get as close to 6 on the dot as I can get it. So far it seems to be working great. :smoke1:

4 growing in "pro - mix" type soiless mix in containers, i believe u s/b trying for ph levels of 6.5 - 6.8 when h2oing. to hi/lo + nutes r locked out - plant looks funny ( rusty,spotted, burnt lookin,etc.) plant still grows - it just that u can make it grow better, getting the ph # correct is a great way 2 start making strong, healthy girls.

thank you people for helping.
about the ph , like i said , i keep getting diff answers and all with a positive feedback (like in this thread). i'm not from the u.s so i dont have exccess to the products that you people talk about but i guess different peat base mixes shoud be treat the same , right ? i have the best mix i could get . any way my plant 95% perfect with 6-6.5 ph .
thanks again to all,
peace ,
eezee.
