@OutForReal the advice you give about the correct order is wrong according to GH website. GH recommends silica first then calmag then micro then the rest of your nutrients. Micro comes before flower or bloom.

Turns out she was having a sulfur deficiency, I added Epson salts based on what I read online, a tablespoon per gallon. Within 3 days, all the leaves turned dark green. But I think that was way too much. The PPM spiked to about 2500!. Also, it appears a calcium deficiency appeared by the look of all the brown/yellow spots. I decided I must have made a mistake adding the nutes to the water. I've never had calcium or sulfur issues before. The tap water is typically loaded with calcium. So yesterday I replaced all the solution with newly PH balanced water and all new nutes just to make sure I did not make a silly mistake previously. Keeping my fingers crossed over the next few days. That said, she still doubled in size this week and she has a nice powerful scent.

Grow Questions
BucketBrigadestarted grow question 6 years ago
Please have a look at the coloring of this plant. I thought it was the lack of zinc, but FloraMicro provides a healthy dose. Yellow is on the newer growth and not in the older leaves is strange. I fear raising the ppms as a previous grow burned when it got > 500ppm.
Solved
Leaves. Color - Pale

Raise your EC , you can give them 1.2Ec at that stage. BTW do you know that you need to mix these nutrients in a specific order ? Grow then Micro then bloom.

@Enviros007, no worries. I went back to the GH bottles where they clearly state the order (except for silica which I always add 1st anyway). I'm happy @OutForReal reminded me to check the order of nutrient addition. He was correct. And also thank you for your concern. It's nice to know we are all looking to help each other gain the best possible grow! I hope to help you both out one day in return.

My Tangerine also took forever to get ambers. At 101 days from start of germination, I harvested mine, thats 14.5 weeks. It only had a smattering of ambers. I tried things Ive read about to hasten the development of ambers, minimum to no nutrients, and removal of all faded leaves. Nothing helped and I think the reduction in nutrients for 2 weeks added to the airyness of my buds. My lesson learned was let the plant do its thing because nothing I do will do much more than hinder its potential.
I did take a cola at week 12 (which may have slowed it down even more), mostly clear trichomes. Its great for daytime or when drowsy because one hit is like a cup of coffee. But the final buds, 2 weeks later, are much mellower, It was worth the wait.

@Weird_Jimmy, It's starting to look like I'll be within a week or so of the grow time of your plant. Yours was still nice and green at harvest. Mine looks like it's on it's last legs....

@Weird_Jimmy, That's great feedback. Thank you! I'm almost starving her right now. So I'm going to up the nutrients a little and see how it goes.

Same strain. Your grow looks good. And 2 ounces is my goal for each of my four plan.
The trimming had to be tremendously tedious. I'm noticing from a few journals and my grow that this stain takes its sweet time

@Mr_Ewell, the trimming was not that bad. Turns out that most of the leaves simply dropped off or could be easily pulled off by hand with very little effort. Waiting for the trichomes to change was infuriating.
But, the flavor is really nice! The effect of vaporizing is super nice as well! I think that much of the chlorophyll had disappeared by harvest, hence the yellow-brownish color.
After just 3 days of drying, the taste was remarkable.

I am loving your progress with this strain. It is certainly a more challenging one, but the results will be well worth it. 😎

at first check Ph, then Roots, after that do the tst with osmotic/ destilled water...... i hope one of it works
Happy growing

@Mrs_Larimar, when I have had nitrogen problems in the past, it moved through the plant from the bottom up. This is happening in reverse.
That said, the water had a TDS prior to nutes of about 200ppm.
