@M3dicinal, hi thanks! they were obviously stunted so are on the small side you should see from the update the plant seems to be recovering.

@Char23, Great news. How are the dark twisted leaves looking? Did they fill out normally? Looking forward to future updates. :)

Cool, The hard water issues killed me my first grow. A TDS meter will help you a lot too 😬 Shouldn't you be about ready for an up date here 😬 I am headed up to do a final one on mine. I will tag you over there. This one came out pretty nice

@justright, update is on :) Yeah I will invest in one moving forward. I’ll have a look in a moment. Your Scrog looked great the last time I looked.

I got the ro buddie. The one in the link. I make 5 gallons. Then mix it 50/50 with tap water. That makes me 10 gallons that way and drops my ppms to where I need them. This system will save you a lot and let you make it at home where you can relax or do other things while it works. It takes me about 2 hours and 10 minutes to make 5 gallons. You can get the 100 gallon one which is faster. just leaves the water with a little higher ppm. My tap is 535 ppm so I needed to get the water as pure as I could. It comes out at .0007 now. I bought a couple of the water bottles you would use for a water cooler from walmart and fill them. If you are going to mix with tap water. You will need at least 2 of them. https://www.amazon.com/Aquatic-Life-Reverse-Osmosis-50-Gallon/dp/B00DOG63OY/ref=sr_1_2/135-1814647-2708111?ie=UTF8&qid=1549321865&sr=8-2&keywords=ro+buddie

@justright, cheers for this. I might have to invest in one next month. I have also picked up a tds meter so fingers crossed I should be able to keep these babies stable.

i might be wrong but, the discoloring in the lower leafs looks like nut burn. the missing parts of your plants i think has been food for someone, either you see or you dont, because size of the bugs, photoperiod of the bugs hehe, also i personally think humidity should allways stay bit low, specially when using leds to prevent mold and shit. i tried the led out, spent close to 350£ on lights only to go back to my hid 400watt couple weeks later... but dude if it continues flush em, but make sure its hot after.. hope that helps any.. good luck man, if this was me! i would not even care.. just tidy up to get a clean overview, look at the holes if they are getting more and bigger

@NorthernKnight, thanks for the reply. I thought bugs straight away but have even gone through the plants at 30x zoom and could find no trace. I’ll lower the humidity to 45%. I watered with CalMag 0.5 per ml and plain phd water at 6.5 yesterday and run of was coming in just under 5.5 so I’m thinking I’ll need to give them all a good flush? Thanks for the advice.

Hello. I have never heard of the grow medium you are in. So I can't say a lot for sure. If these were mine. I would first make sure my ph was in range. I would up the amount of cal mag I was using. Also, do you know the ppm of the water you are using/ Is it RO or tap water? I grow autos as well and ran into a lot of similar problems when i started growing. I my self grow in coco coir. It is possible you are feeding a touch to heavy for only being a couple weeks old. I have seen leaves like that before from fungus gnats. I would focus on getting every thing in order before heading there. The fungus gnats, if you had them, are easy to get rid of with just soap and water. or that has been my experience with them.

@justright, thanks for the reply. Lots of good reviews on the medium on uk420 and local garden centres had it in stock. I’m using tap water. I thought bugs straight away so did spray with soapy water before cleaning off as a precaution. I watered with CalMag 0.5 per ml and plain phd tap water at 6.5 yesterday and run of was coming in just under 5.5 so I’m thinking I’ll need to give them all a good flush as I may have caused a lockout? Or am I good to water at a higher ph when they next need watering and leave the soil to balance out this way? Thanks for the advice.

Char23commented5 years ago

@justright, I did a flush earlier on so we shall see how they bounce back. The ph of the run off took a while to get up to 6 so I’m hoping that was the issue. I don’t have a Ppm meter, I do need to invest one. I do however know the water in my area sits at 287 ppm which is high. Are you buying your RO or have you got a home unit?

justrightcommented5 years ago

@Char23, If it were me. I would try watering/feeding like normal for at least 3 days and see where that takes you. I have done the raise the ph up hoping to get it in line. It just caused more issues. I would try that before flushing. Do you know what the ppm is for your water straight from the tap. I ran into most of my issues on my first grow with to hard of water. I now mix 50% RO and 50% tap water. It is working out fine. My tap is 335ppm here. So real hard.

Holding out on updating the harvest for the gorilla and blueberry simply because I have not smoked any yet as they have only been curing since Sunday. I will upload these In a couple of weeks. All pics ect are ready to go I just dont want to upload without filling in the relevant info! Let's just say I cleared my target and I am now sitting on around 60gs of gorilla and 83gs of the blueberry!

Char23commentedweek 135 years ago

I should have added I have the tent stable at 15 degrees and 50-55 rh for this drying period :)

Char23commentedweek 75 years ago

Update is coming late this week as I’m currently away this weekend

Char23commentedweek 45 years ago

Forgot to add I am running a visparspectra 600w LED. I have lightly defoliated the most effected leaves, mostly on the zkittlez. I am watering until slight run off and they have seemed thirsty again within 5 days. The zkittlez did seem to struggle to take water in comparison to the others for a couple of days at the start of this week.
