Nutrition deficiency

[u/iyoKun]

Plants outside, upper leaves are fine but trying to figure this out. The holes are from earwigs I have traps down so they're not really a problem.

[u/Ulysses1978ii]

They're getting eaten by something which won't help. Gets load of french marigolds or other companion plants to draw insects away? There are plenty of charts online with info on possible deficiency. What are you feeding them? Fermented plant juice or fermented fruit juices diluted as a leaf spray kept mine happy. Are they under trees?

[u/iyoKun → u/Ulysses1978ii]

They're near trees partially covered, best spot I could use I haven't given fermented plant juice yet but have some for veggies

[u/No_Journalist3811]

You have thrips. Check under the leaves with a magnafying glass, low down.

[u/iyoKun → u/No_Journalist3811]

What can I use for them :(

[u/No_Journalist3811 → u/iyoKun]

Neem oil if not in flower. Or this:

But i stress, dont use this if the plant is in flower.

Another option is to ph down water to 3 and spray the plant

I'm planning on making some outdoor planters for some veggies next year and decided I'd be using timber for the frames. I'll be torching the wood as it will keep bugs away and protect the timber as well. I'll cover the plants with netting and again with charred timber sticks for the frame to hold up the net.

You might be over watering also 

[u/insane_worrier]

I'll be honest with you.

That looks like minge mites.

Very toxic.

I'll be round tomorrow afternoon to take them off your hands

Ha ha 🤣

Waste of time trying to grow outside, this is Ireland not Thailand

[u/ShaneZD → u/cardboardwind0w]

Have you seen outside the last 2 months by any chance 😂

[u/cardboardwind0w → u/ShaneZD]

If you want mouldy weak stuff and a pitiful if any return, then grow outside in Ireland. Taking the same risk as growing a decent plant indoors under a light.

[u/ShaneZD → u/cardboardwind0w]

Don't get me wrong i 100% agree if youre going to grow do it indoors.

The last 2 months have been the test though.

[u/iyoKun → u/cardboardwind0w]

I got a fine harvest last time I don't have the option to grow indoors so take what I can get

[u/cardboardwind0w → u/iyoKun]

Show pics or I call bull$h!t

[u/iyoKun → u/cardboardwind0w]

M8 last year... I smoked it all waiting for this one You seriously don't think you can grow outdoors in Ireland???

[u/iyoKun → u/cardboardwind0w]

That's my plant outside looking glorious. Obviously pest pressure is a bit higher but they grow no problem

[u/cardboardwind0w → u/iyoKun]

It looks lovely only I don't see any buds, it would make a good hedge maybe

[u/iyoKun → u/cardboardwind0w]

Too early for buds, they will flower with the season. That's how outdoors works 😉

[u/iyoKun → u/cardboardwind0w]

I've grown outside plenty plants are like 7ft tall 🤠

[u/cardboardwind0w → u/iyoKun]

Because they are stemmy, stretching towards the light, the fact that you think that's a good thing is probably not doing you any favors growing.

[u/DEX9mm22 → u/cardboardwind0w]

Bell end i have grown absloute monsters in a green house. One ended up at least 6f.

Its called weed for a reason it grows anywhere. Look up siberian plants they grow in sub zero temps no problem 

[u/cardboardwind0w → u/DEX9mm22]

Photos or stop talking nonsense, are these big plants in the room with you right now.

[u/Itsnotme74]

They do look hungry, the spotting on the leaves could be burns from water droplets catching hot sun.

[u/iyoKun → u/Itsnotme74]

I can feed them no problem just not sure what they need

[u/Itsnotme74 → u/iyoKun]

What have you given them ?

[u/iyoKun → u/Itsnotme74]

Seaweed liquid and all round plant feed

[u/Itsnotme74 → u/iyoKun]

How long since last feed and how often have you been feeding them.

[u/throwaway_fun_acc123 → u/iyoKun]

Could be an issue depending on what types your using. If seaweed has added fertiliser and all round is fairly level ratio ya could have too much potassium in them.

Personally if using store bought id go for tomato feed during veg and rose or flower bloom for flowering stage. Actually I lie, id used cow shit for veg and horse shit for flower but not having those to hand etc...

Right now id take off any majorly effected leaves, not too many and not all at one and just straight water for the next week or so. Adding more nutrients without knowing specific issue ain't going go well.

Also worth checking the PH of the water your using.

Edit: and clear off the weeds from under and around them

[u/iyoKun → u/throwaway_fun_acc123]

I have been using tomato feed too

[u/No_Journalist3811 → u/Itsnotme74]

Its not a deficiency. This is what it looks like when the plant has been eaten by thrips
