Hopefully not too far away now.
Another heat wave caused some high temps with high humidity this past week - they're barely hanging on!
Chopped off a few buds this past week out of panic (I confused leaf septoria with bud-rot I think)
I'll be happy if I can get 1/4 oz dry as these girls have been through a lot!
The largest plant seemed to be wasting away, reducing volume as the days passed - so I chopped her at 5.8g wet (total 8.8g wet) with a quick wet trim. Currently drying (aiming for under 70F with humidity). Inspecting the roots quickly seems she only filled half the pot with roots - I'll need to investigate this further.
September 14 - Two remaining girls are in darkness for 48 hours while monitoring RH and temp. Will chop this weekend.
September 16 - Harvested, and set to dry after a quick wet trim.
Learned a bunch this round, and although I'm likely not to yield more than a few joints - I'm happy for the experience and grateful to the helpful community members of GD.
@Hou_Stone, Thanks very much! I like the way you've hung your towels in your diary. I tend to just wrap my towels around the supporting frame/chassis of the tent, but having a line setup like yours is much easier!
Hi mate, if you find a way how to help the yellowing leaves let me know, I had the same thing just managed to stop it for a bit with PK but it was not a long term solution.
@Metatronix, You're welcome - I'll help in any way I can!
Interesting, I'll keep an eye on it and see how things progress. I defoliated the most offending leaves this morning, so any new yellowing should be easy to spot. I'm very intrigued, I just hope it's not a consistent problem.
Curious to see if the quality of smoke is greatly affected come cure.
@MMSC16, Thank you for the sum up bro ๐ I also see delicate signs of lights stress, just that it's nothing rough, the edges of the leaves just barely go up...the main thing has to be something else ๐ค
curious thing about overwatering could be, em not from that department but in my case as I wrote, my plants had very similar damage but it's hard not to overwater in DeepWaterCoulture ๐
I observe a growmie here who grows for years (uses the same nutes as me) Has similar trouble, he also can't put a finger on it...
@Metatronix, Hello! I certainly will - From what I understand from the community here, it's been a result of light stress and underwatering. I'm a complete novice - so take what I've learned with a grain of salt.
The cause in my case is likely as follows:
. Added an extra grow light in the same, very small environment
. Distance from light was ~13"
. Was watering every 2-5 days - coco requires more frequent watering.
. I also exposed my plants to direct sunlight in addition to the 2 grow lights.
. They're likely more resilient in vegetative stage to light burn, so symptoms only really arose as flowering progressed with final stretch.
As for the solution, in my case I've just been flushing with clean PH water and increasing freq. of water. Too early to see if it's working but I'll let you know as soon as I know more!
