I think the LST worked quite well Day 31: Stopped nutes & watering for a few days, as advised by other growers on GD Day 32: Nothing to declare Day 33: Dry soil, yellow leaves. Flushed soil with 10L of water to heal nute overdose. Moved the plant away from the LED (from 20cm to 25cm) Day 34: Sun bath & fan pointed to soil to remove water excess caused by the flush Day 35: Nothing to declare

Grow Questions

AxlWeedstarted grow question 7 years ago
Day 30, a lot of small buds start to appear. Do you think i should change the growing nutes to bloom ones now ? Thanks for any advice, i'm new at all these things.

See those leaves with a claw like shape? That's nutrient overdose. I would flush the media and let the plants consume what's on their leaves for a week before starting nutes again. Also get a PPM/EC meter, that will help a lot in how much to feed without guessing, specially in a micro grow when a couple of drops can put the feeding strength from ok to too much (I do microgrowing too). And to answer your question (if you didn't have nute overdose), you would want to keep using the grow nutes until the stretch is done and start the bloom ones between the 2nd or 3d week of flower, when you notice the first signs of P-K deficiency on the lower leaves.
