Limping towards the finish line - I am not going to use this grow medium (Kind soil) again. I've had issues both grows I've used it for, but more pronounced this time. I've just started a new grow of Acapulco Gold, and will be using Buildasoil's Clackamas Coot mix and maybe giving no-till a try. At any rate, leaves keep dying off / yellowing at a frantic rate. The buds are building up, but not seeing a lot of trich / resin production on the sugar leaves. The plants really aren't growing at all any more and I'm disappointed that they haven't filled in available space in the tent more. Yield looks to be a lot less than my last grow.
Thanks Mrs. Larimar - these plants were a little more fragile with LST than my previous Gorilla Glue grow - my first few attempts all resulted in breaking branches with not much pressure applied. Luckily I managed to save all the branches except for one by immediately tying them up.
It's weird - they've been showing the yellow almost since the beginning. I posted a question on another forum wondering if it was a nitrogen deficiency, but the responses I got were that it seemed to be heat related. The yellowing calmed down for a bit but came back shortly before flipping, and I've noticed recently that most of the yellowing is happening on the side of the tent that gets less direct ventilation. As you say things look healthy up top, so I'm just riding things out for now...
Just caught the end of this grow. Seems the battles you have fought are going to be worth it. Looking forward to the harvest,. Good luck in the final stretch my freind.
