Hey there growing community! Week 10 of the grow, the Kings Kush is putting on the weight albeit slowly. I will say this, it has to be one of the slowest growing plants I have ever come across, especially since this is is an autoflower. But I will persevere and follow this grow till the end. I have increased the frequency of waterings to 3 waterings per week, 1 large watering with nutrients the other 2 lighter waterings just water. This plant is the definition of 'short and fat'. As you can see from the photos the first few internodes aren't even internodes, it's like she has the plant equivalent of 'Cankles' lol😂😂. as long as she keeps fattening up I'm happy. The flowers have an orangey-citrusy smell to them reminiscent of fake orange flavoured fruit drink, LOVE IT! Either way the forecast for the next few weeks: expecting periods of intense frost! till next week. 👋
Yellowing on lower, older leaves. Starts with crispy tip, curling downwards then slowly progress to the whole leaf. The leaves haven't started falling off yet but I feel if it doesn't get resolved soon then this will be the next step. Thanks for the help.
Hi @Dr_Kush! I would give it a good flush and lower the EC for the next meals, you may have created a lockout by adding too much nutrients in a short period of time. Also, make sure your ph-pen is correctly calibrated, a wrong pH could also explain these symptoms. Keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊
Flushed it today with a good amount of pHed water. I'll probably do the same at the start of next week. I'm putting her on a diet for a week. We'll see if anything changes for the better.
@Dr_Kush,ok , perfect, it isn’t overwatering.
Can you check the amount of the EC (ppm or mS) coming from the drain please ? I could be able to tell if it’s a nutrient deficiency or too many .
We’re getting closer to your solution bro 😉
@Dr_Kush,is it a chronic schedule or do you left the pots until they get lightweight again before watering ? I’m suspecting rotten roots due to overwatering....
@JUNGLE_B4RNS,checked the runoff ppm, upper 2000’s so definitely over feeding. It could also be that here in Oz no commercially available soil is fertiliser free they all have some crap in them. Don’t know what or how much. I’m just gonna hold back on the nutes for a week just go with pHed water and see how I go.
@bobo420, Thanks Mate even if the little guy only has 4 leaves now they are all reaching for the light, high and mighty!! Cant wait for the serious growth to start.

Seem to be coming along nicely now ;)
You don't need to wait for several days for chlorine to evaporate, it takes 12-24 at most, depending on your tap water, it won't hurt to leave it for longer though. You may want to check the PH of it though
