Noticed a change in coloration of older fan leaves. Pointing to a potential pH Flux problem.
Tank Water = pH 5.8
Run off = pH 8.2
At the end of week 2 i will Flush the system with water only.
Tap water @ location = 7.0
Could possibly be a nutrient burn from having too much nutrients. Chart advises 170ml, 2 weeks @ 150ml.
Maybe week 3.5 100ml?
Will give the system a flush for 3 days then add 100ml nute to see improvement on pHing issues.
Growth looks great.
Stems on fan leaves are probably biggest ive seen in my 4 grows.
Friday start w3 - ph run off was 7.6
Water in tank = 5.2.
Ive noticed the tips are the faintest of yellow. Maybe ive mistaken Nute Burn for pH Fluctuations?
Diagnosing: pHing both tank and run off showed different ranges. My CYCO Coco pre-mix was ph buffered. The De-Gnat agent that goes over the coco for mite protection maybe causing.
Looks more like mechanical damage to me, from the leaves hitting the edge of the pot when the fan is blowing on them, most probably at night when the plant has lowered its leaves to the "resting" position.
The lowest leaves going yellow are due to being in too much shade.
Both these things are fairly normal occurrences and do not need any remedies.
Your plant will grow normally, there will be no yield losses or potency reductions caused by either of these two things.
The uber faint yellow tips can be a sign of impending nitrogen excess.
Make sure to water until run off each time, this will help prevent nutrient salts from building up to toxic levels in your substrate and causing any issues or burning.
Hope this helps,........

150ml nutes to 50L.. but i think it should be half that 🤦🏻
PHing issues fixed
Spotted some nutrient burn but ill have that sorted out by week 5.
Aiming for an 8 week total veg after seeing them 4 weeks in... Looking lovely and lush!
Still aiming for 2pounds per plant alot of work to do here!
Low stress training commenced. Bent all main colas 2 days ago and theyre bouncing back quite nicely, no issues with LST.
4 days ago i fimmed 1 more off each tree.
I like to mix, LST with fimm and topping.
Continue with normal feed patterns for this week and will change nutrients (sit it at 100ml per 50L)
Run off still in high 6s low 7s but seeing no more pH flux problems.
Tips are slightly burnt - keep an eye on it👌👌
Turned today, got impatient to wait another 2 weeks 🤦🏻
Seen some discoloring heading to nutrient burn so ive corrected it all in this new top up (from today)
Didnt take too much notice of the room this week, have removed one foam base from the bottom although i maybe should have left them a little closer to the light.
Added CYCO Ryzofuel 0-0-0.2
Added Advanced Nute Rhinoskin 0-0-0.4
Does this literally have the same fuel?😂
Cyco runs for first 2 weeks of bloom
Rhinoskin runs for 6 weeks.
To add overdrive at 6 weeks to week 7 then flush week 8!
Im guessing the overall BigBud is 6 to 8 weeks. I will stretch her to 8 weeks.
Any tips from here onwards is appreciated 👌
Added a net but im hopeless and with big hands am prone at breaking main stems at this point once LST is applied so i might just leave it as it is until the knuckles form stronger and see how we go!
@Cannabeast40, much appreciated, ill keep this diary updated frequently as time and resource have gone into this particular grow. Aiming for 4-5 pounds from 2 trees with 4x600w what you think? ;)
Looking good and progressing very nicely !! Good luck with the grow !
Please feel free to check out/show love on some of my recent grows (Tropicana cookiez/Venom OG/Banana Mango )
Also… I have a lots of growing tips on my profile page (comments section)
