Black Strap by Mandalorian Genetics

Week 9 - Flower - Wednesday 2021.07.14 This week I finally acknowledged the 'tip burn' followed by 1/4-1/3? brown at leaf tip INDICATES ZINC DEFICIENCY. After some investigation, The following symptoms I've experienced ACROSS my grow are: - SHORT Inter-nodal Spacing - Overall stunting of plant - Difficulty to flower THIS is my experience the past 2 grows w/ RO. LESSON LEARNED: IFF one must use RO - ALWAYS REMINERALIZE!!!! Demeters Destiny (GREAT PRODUCT) is NOT ideal for Remineralization. (I was thinking just get PPM ~100 or so. Wrong) <H1>Remineralization of Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water</H1> @KingdomAquaponics/Leighton Morrison: Remineratlization Formula 0.4 g Calcium Chloride Dihydrate 2.0 g Calcium Sulphate Dihydrate 2.0 g Magnesium Sulphate Heptahydrate

Raised to within 1” of Max Height in Cabinet ⁃ Delivering Found This: I think I have a Zinc Deficiency due to RO water was Zinc Deficiency Symptoms • The leaves of the plant turn 90 degrees sideways. • The tips of the leaves become ‘burned’ and discolored, with brown spots arriving shortly afterward. • New growth shows signs of interveinal chlorosis. https://wayofleaf.com/cannabis/growing/cannabis-nutrient-deficiencies Last 7 Minutes of Leighton Morrisson’s GrowCast Podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/growcast/id1077793493?i=1000528417823 Tap water hasp plenty of Zinc - will try Filtered . . . w/ Humid Acid 1x1/24/36 ✓ Measure, Reset Lights @ 14.5 (opt) @75% Dimmer (83. 5% Effective) Day 66/10 - Flower - Saturday 2021.07.17 BSAF X 66:F:9:4 Black Strap - Brother Mendel/Mandalorian Collaboration Observations ⁃ Cleaned off Yellow lowers.
