On the positive side, the plant really started to bulk up this past week. The base structure is solid and the buds are slowly starting to fill out. The smell has started getting stronger as well, and is starting to smell amazing. I left her alone for the most part last week and didn't do any maintenance defoliation. I plan to do the same this week and let her continue to add weight.
On the negative side, I did start noticing that the tips of some leaves were turning yellowish/brown with curling. I asked members what this might be and the unanimous consensus was nutrient burn. I've used the less-concentrated Botanicare in the past, which allowed me a greater margin of error. I'm using the GH FloraNova Bloom for the first time with this grow and made the novice mistake of using too much of these concentrated nutrients. I've started flushing with plain water and will continue this for the next several days before easing back into the nutrients.
That's it for the week!
Top leaf tips turned yellowish, brown with curling. I'm leaning towards light burn as the cause, but noticed it started occurring during the recent hot weather. I've raised the lights, but am wondering if this could actually be related to the heat.
Looks like nutrient burn from prolonged high levels of nutrients. Some phenotypes are more sensitive than others. They usually start with the tips turning a whitish color before turning brown. I usually back off nutrients if they all start to pale on the leaf tips. I would use less nutrients in your mix.
@Huckleberry39, It was real easy. I just kept feeding her and trying to leave her alone. She bulked up nicely. I've had them curing for almost 30 days and will be smoke testing soon. Other ILGM BK diaries are similar.
