Problems So as usual I made this grow more difficult than it needed to be by misfeeding the plants I kept not only bad timing but also improperly fed after I started. Started a bit over a week late on feeding them. Gave some silica and grow to start,and then grow and calmag. Obviously not enough never gave it potassium until the problem was really bad. This was also complicated that the fb got some powdery mildew on some fan leaves. Which made me spray all 3 plants twice with a peroxide and potassium bicarbonate mix. This killed the pd but I feel I made the mix to strong. Moreover, sprayed it a 3rd time with neem oil. Currently the potassium deficiency is fixed and new growth is looking good. Still got a magnesium deficiency. Super cropped all 3 plants again so now instead of flipping to flower at end of week 8 I need to recover a bit before flipping.

So I was forced to flip into flower as my veg was already to long without a humidifier. I shorted the humidifier by not letting it dry properly after cleaning. Ordered a new one let's hope it gets here quickly. Spraying the bottom of the tent every few hours to bring rh up. See mag toxicity I think so I flushed the ck to test it out. Ran 4gallons of water in a 7 container. Got like a gallon of runoff in terms of water at 360ppm which I feel is low enough to rule out ph problem.

Trying to keep rh up by spraying the tent with lights on with a hudson sprayer. It is working to some degree. Any suggestions that can help? P.s. new humidifier on the way should be here within the next 5 days. With me doing nothing rh is l8w 40's and 30's Ijust flipped to flower

you'll be fine. a few days of less optimal rh isn't going to hurt you... lower pH increases VPD, which increases rate of drinking. if drinking more than it should, you can reduce concentration of nutes temporarily, if you wanted... for 1 week i wouldn't bother. if you see any hints of buildup, can change your mind on it. 30s is a bit low, but won't hurt anything between now and replacing your humidifier. i'd hesitate spraying down your plants with any mist, this increases risk of problems more than it will help.

So I incorrectly flushed the ck the last day of last week but it clued me in to what I was doing wrong with my feed. The problem was basically I underfed from the start and everything I give them has some magnesium in it.

Let's hope the ck can rebound this week and start taking off this week as the flush is behind it. The plant lost all sugar leaves almost last week so anything worth while must come from new growth. This being a pure sativa it will stretch a extra week versus the other two hybrids. The bubblegum sherbert is moving along best switch it to final nutrients now as i ran out beastie bloomz. Over watered the fat bastard accidentally but it's fine now. All 3 plants got their final grooming and feed of open sesame. Preflowers are looking good.

While the bs and fb are chugging along slowly. The ck flowers are getting bigger however I am losing my leaves due to the fact its over watered from the flush on top of the problems it had. Feeding it is a issue it is drinking alot less than the other 2. Sprayed the plants with peroxide gently to get stuff off. Fat-bastard is smelling amazing I really love what I see out of this strain for sure want more seeds of it.

You don't have powdery mildew. Your plants look seriously over watered to me. Your plant looks like it's oxygen starved. Saturated soil is not good for Weed. Roots need air or the plant starts doing what i see your plant doing. If you are in 7 gal pots as your diary says, that's way too big for the size those plants are. If you saturate your soil in a large pot with a plant that has a small root mass, you are going to suffocate it. More often than not, less is more with growing weed. Many people love their plants to death. I would let your soil dry out so your pots are light when you lift them. Then water with only 1 liter of a calmag mixture pH to 6.3 Since you are in flowering, drop your humidity to 45% to help get them transpiring at a faster rate to get those pots dried out. Get your fan blowing across the soil surfaces to also help to dry them out. Cultivate the top inch of your soil so it's nice and fluffy and even to help to get some oxygen down to the roots. I'm guessing you have been steadily feeding these plants so there shouldn't be anything lacking, but rather too much fertilizer. Given that i suspect your plants are oxygen starved at the roots, i would suggest holding off on feeding for a week. Get that soil dried out and then lightly water with a calmag solution. Your PPM is pretty high for soil as well. in my opinion 1400ppm is too much. I never go higher than 1200ppm and that is only for weeks 4 and 5 of flower. Then I reduce to 1150, then 1100 and then closing out with the flushing before harvest. You can't run ppm super high without additional co2 injection. Ideally i would say flush your soil with 6.3 pH water to leech the soil of excess salts, but i suspect your plant suffers from saturated soil so now is not the time for that. Try drying out the soil and then lighly water and see if they start bouncing back.

I am hoping this week goes smoothly. I dialed back the watering last week to 3 times a week as the plants seem a bit over watered. Sprayed them twice last week with peroxide to get rid of either pm or mold on the bs let's hope that worked. Waited 3 days between sprays and did so on non-watering days. Screwed up by keeping the lights in a bit to long 3 days last week by like 15 minutes. Ran out of big bloom. Took off some fan leaves of the bs that I would have liked to kept. Removed most unwanted fan leaves from bs and fb the buds are growing nicely. Fat bastard is really standing out to me in this grown above anything I have grow thus far. It smells like fire from week 3 flower basically got dank written all over it right out of preflower appearance.

Started the week messing up the time cycle yet again by falling a sleep 5 minutes before lights on resulting in a 2 hour delay. Giving 600 ppm with every watering 3x a week. Had to run the ac here and there to protect trichomes from heat. Luckily its going to get cooler after day 3 of the week.

More lighting fluctuations the whole week running light from noon to midnight now because of it. Temperature is hovering around 81 degrees with lights on. Took out the humidifier last week for fat bastard as suggested by friend who gave me the seed plus at the recommendation from the breeder as well with rh now around 40%. Ck is barely breathing basically added no weight last week just ripened a bit really worried about this plant. Fact that I stressed the hell out of it and underfed it to overfed,then overwatered by doing a flush the plant just has not recovered. Shame as it's 50% of my grow and its going to be the least yielding out of the 3.

Well I feel two plants are ready and it doesn't seem like the bubblegum is. Additionally I don't believe it is bubblegum at all as I grew it before and this don't smell like bubblegum at all. Got a herbal and floral scent to it instead. I hope it is really good anyway.

Cut down day 62 of flower 1 day short of 9 full weeks. Saw 1 seed develop I made way to many mistakes with this plant. Got about 3oz of bud from this obviously needs more cure. I had this cultivar in it's full glory before and sadly I didn't get it there. After two months curing it was decent smoke I got alot of beans of it will give another attempt in the future.
