Plants are coming along welll.
I have the fan on when the light is on, when i close the tent they are kind of swaying in the wind.
That is what i like to see at this stage, to strengthen their stems.
Starting with a tiny bit of humic acid at 6.3 Ph
They are growing pretty good, first time i gave some nutrients. they did good.
Looks like they will need a little more calmag, i'm seeing some discoloration on the top leaves.
Some plants have sagged a little bit at the stem because i was early giving them more water than they were used to.
Have to keep an eye out, not to overwater them.
So far, i'm a happy grower. they are doing pretty well.
So they have 6-7 nodes now, i tried FIMing them for the first time.. we'll see how it goes
I switched from bio grow to fish mix since i read the manual on their website..
Did some Low stress training on the 3 biggest plants, one smaller one will have to wait a little while.
One day after LST, the branches are bending upwards again, looks good.
End of week 5: they have recovered nicely
still waiting to see how many new branches will appear on some of them.
Did a light defoliation on day 4 of bloom.
Gonna have to do it again i pressume in a couple of weeks..
but at least now the air can flow trough and the light can penetrate to the lower bud sites.
Day 7, they look great, not alot of stretching for now
put the support net over them, have started to grow trough it
Everything is going well, plants look happy and healthy.
Little bit of stretching going on.
Forgot to add the calmag supplement this feeding, will add it later in the week
I followed perscriptions from biobizz feeding schedule this week, now i'm seeing burnt tips..
The burned tips are from last weeks feeding, it was to much..
lowered the nutrients a little bit, planning on giving more but in seperate waterings.
they looked a little pale so i gave some humic acid.
Hey Growmies,
My plants are in week 5 of flowering and 3 out of 4 plants are turning awfully yellow..
Is this something to worry about?
Please help me out, it's my first time growing with bio bizz
Look at my diary for the feeding schedule
correct if wrong -- progressing tip-in and initially started on lower leaves?
If so, that's nitrogen. Despite a lot of loud members in teh peanut gallery, a flowering plant needs nearly as much nitrogen as a vegetative plant. So, if you also dropped N significantly like most suggest, that makes it even more obvioous that it is a N-deficiency.
Good to use more than one metric to deduce what is goign on... Always ensure pH is not the cause as that can be the root of all problems at any time, though you usually see multiple coinciding symptoms and generally confusing trying to read the plant.
Other posibilities -- if starting at top, could be a p-tox. Top leaves will have thinner blades and also may have burnt tips below. If severe, it would also lockout Mg/Ca/Zn/Fe, potentially.
K-tox is another with yellow leaves up top.. thin blads and inerveinal chlorosis. That last one is key to know the difference of how the paling progressed... did it start in the spaces between veins or did it start from end (tip) of leaf and work its way in? Like too much P, it locks out similar stuff... and the symptoms related to those things do overlap with what is seen on the plant.
Again, the peanute gallery often blindly suggests blasing bloom plants with p/k without any regard to how much an individual is already providing... if soilless or hydro it's easy.. around 6-6.2pH if you are >50-60 ppm P or >200-210ish K, thats entering into ranges that will risk toxicity.. each plant can very a bit, but still the same ballpark. pH will impact these numbers... a different pH can work fine but that will shift what the overall balance should be in your mix a bit. With soil, you can't simply calculate this from your fertilizer, since the soil has it's own charge of nutes too. a little more guesswork invovled. You are in soil, so your pH is likely higher than mine... small differences are likely.
so, conisder what you've fed lately, maybe even calculate some ppms used over last couple weeks. eliminate possiblities with info not provided here. With soil, it's such a crapshoot soemtimes.. gotta be familiar with it.. have to know what your soil composition will need supplementation for at various points throughout grow. Anyone that gives a direct answer given this info is smoking a pipe, but so do i, LOL.
Changed up the nutrients a little bit, they seem to have a N defficiency and maybe one of them has a bit of P defficiency aswell..
Left out the humic acid again, problems seem to have started when i implemented humic acid and left out alg a mic.
We'll see how this week goes, wish me luck 🙏
Buds look really nice, getting fatter and turning color
Buds are looking great! showing red notes.
The yellowing hasn't stopped.. so i just kept the nutrients very basic
scared to overfeed/underfeed but i'm just gonna sit this one out.
So on top of the extreme toxicity i found some budrot..
had to do an emergency harvest to save the rest of my buds. 😰
I started flushing them but the toxicity didnt subside, got worse..
I made a few big mistakes..
NO more Humic acid + nutrients
Don't listen to what bio bizz chart says.. they don't need that much of everything!
