No, but you should worry about those curled edges. You are over feeding, stop with biogrow; 2.0EC is too strong

GrowGermany - the first pistils turning brown 😎
- more leaves starting to turn lime-green/yellowish
- she is starting to smell realy good and get a little sticky :)
is this normal for day 50 (week 8) above ground?
- runoff ph higher than fertilized water.
- increasd light to plant distance (learning about ppfd)
- lowerd Bio-Grow (will lower it even more next watering)

GrowGermany She is showing obvious signs of overfeeding
i flushed her once with plain PHed water and three days later with slightly fertilized water:
fertilized water 4l - EC 1 - PH6.4
first runoff EC 2.6 - PH 6.4
last runoff EC 2.5 - PH 6.5
- sugarleafes and flower get more frosty
- buds swelling
- LST and defoliating every watering so all buds get max. light
overall I am super happy with her 😋
Bought a Chikamasa b-500sf (scissor).
We will see how trimming goes but it i already lover it:
- lightweight
- smooth-running
- sharp pointed tip

Experimentgreenanswered grow question 8y ago
Hey there, so if your still having white pistils and mostly milky trichs, id say save the flushing for when you're seeing a bit of amber with the milky and also when theres nearly no more white pistils. But most specifically the trichromes will be the guide. You could slowly back down on the nutes over a few days as you go towards doing the flush? While the pistils mature more and trichs are closer to where you want them. In my opinion you can't be more than a few days from beginning to flush. Happy healthy growing. ✌️

Hi @GrowGermany! Don't plan too much, your 14 days initial schedule might turn into 7 or 20 days... Start to flush when the trichomes are turning to milky, and you'll have a 7 to 14 days flushing phase, depending on your strain/environment/effects you want. Hope this will help, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

It looks like you’re almost ready. I’d recommend waiting another week or two. Most white hairs should curl in and darken, also you should start seeing amber trichomes. Once that happens, start flushing. The buds are looking beautiful by the way. Well done! 👍

Ja, ich plane 2 Wochen zu flushen.
Wegen fehlender Erfahrung fällt es mir aber schwer zu sagen, wann ich damit anfangen soll.
Werde vermutlich meine "Grow Question" dafür verwenden.

@GrowGermany, 2 weeks sounds good, but unfortunately, it's always hard to say how long automatics really need (especially with customs when you have no comparison 😅) In my opinion, you should start soon, I don't think she has much longer left 👍

Mrs_Larimar commented8y ago
@GrowGermany, So to summarize, wait 10-14 days and then flush. Contrary to growweedeasy, I would say 1 week or 3-4 flushes are completely enough with a grow time of about 10 weeks...... best regards and happy flushing^^

Hey, I just saw that you're using a greenception gc-4 too. Do you have all the clusters on? Isn't 15 cm a bit too close? I have 2 of those lights in the same tent and I never try to go below 30 cm.
Cheers✌️

GrowGermany commented8y ago
@KrautFabrik,
Hi, yeah all clusters are on.
The manual says: "Position the LED module about 15–20 cm (min. 10 cm!) above the plant tops."
To be honest, I haven't really thought about it.
How did you come up with the 30 cm?
Cheers

KrautFabrik commented8y ago
@GrowGermany, So first off, this is also my first indoor grow (especially with LED). ✌️
The plants need an optimal PPFD of 800-1000 during flowering; and according to the manufacturer's chart, the lamp delivers a maximum of 1500 at 30 cm (and 2100 at 15 cm). Since anything over 1000 umol is wasted energy, that could also have negative effects. Plus, you have better coverage when the lamp is hung higher.
I have the same lamps and at the highest point with 25 cm, I experienced slight bleaching from too much light.
(I opened a question regarding lamp distance in my grow since my plants grew to different heights. You might want to take a look at the answers; it helped me too)
Cheers ✌️
