Hey folks, first grow here. Sorry, photos starting day 18 will be outside the tent with natural light, as I wasn't initially planning creating a diary, taking the pictures just for myself. No nutes for at least one week.
Again sorry, photos starting day 18 will be outside the tent with natural light, as I wasn't initially planning creating a diary, taking the pictures just for myself.
Started with small amount of nutes. She's looking good so far I guess😀
So far, so good. Topped on day 17, I have 0 experience but seems she is recovering really fast. Increased amount of nutes a bit.
Also I would appreciate if anyone can point me on any type of the mistakes, if they exist.
p.s. as you could notice, zkittlez have a friend (unknown strain, wasn't initially planning to grow it), which I might get rid of, if there will be too tight for 2 plants.
Another week started, for the last 5 days she stretched soo good. Unfortunately I accidentally half-broke one stem, it recovered, but I'll give it more time before LST again.
For the last week she stretched for 17 cm, I'm hoping for a big dense buds.
UPD Day 39: so on day 37 yellow leaves become really noticeable, that's when I was advised to add CalMag. Also I watered till the runoff and pH is 6.1
Seems like pH is in range and no nuts lock. And the most important thing I can't see any new yellowed leaves or old getting more yellow, seems like CalMag is working. Will add photos tomorrow
I'll go with both Hashy and HerbalEdu on this one - a magnesium deficiency - but the question is, more accurately, WHY... Magnesium is a micronutrient that is only available to plants if the PH is in a good range... if the PH is out of whack, you can force feed pure magnesium and it won't do any good... So check the PH and get it in balance (runoff should be between 6.0 and 6.5)... If it's not in balance, do a good flush because you're most likely in a lock-out situation... run 3 gallons of PH'd water for each 1 gallon of pot size through your plant and then run a feed to them. Going forward, make sure you're giving them water/feed that's been PH'd and you should be good to go. If you don't have one, do think about investing in a good PH pen... Apera or Blue Lab are two excellent choices...
Good luck!
Hi, continuing the previous question. pH runoff was 6.1
So I decided not to flush and gave it CalMag. Since then yellow tips doesn't spread any further, but the fan leaves on lower branches become fully yellow and died. Does that mean problem is getting bigger and I should flush?
hey there Rawsome, the yellowing of the leafs at the bottom is a nitrogen-related symptom, when the plant has too much nitrogen it can "lock out" meaning it stops absorbing it through the roots and starts cannabalising itself. You can tell it's nitrogren excess from the "too dark green" and "shiny" aspect of the leafs as well as the burnt tips. right now you're giving three additives, two of which contain N. You should be giving one NPK, one cal mag and one additive. Try to cut out all the additives except zym. Enzymes will help break down the excess N. The bad news is that lock out is quite a hard thing to fix, so the problem will get worse for 5 days to a week before it gets better. Keep a cool head , follow the plan, maybe try a flush if you like. Hope this helps ! 🚀
