The one plant seems to be struggling and I’m not sure what the issue is, seems to be nitrogen toxicity, heat stress or overwatering? Maybe a combination of the three. It’s growing slowly and has claw like leaves and twisting yet my other plants seem fine. Anyone have any input?
hey there Dan, you're basically right on all points but the root cause is actually overwatering, what happened was this plant has been chronically overwatered leading to too much availability of the N in the soil, and the heat provided the perfect conditions to incubate "water mold" which has affected the roots leading to that "taco-ing" you're also seeing in the other plants. Pretty important to sort that root mold on the roots otherwise what happens is that plant can wilt and eventually die like the worst one you've got there. You need to follow a very strict wet/dry cycle and accelerate recovery by breaking down problem roots with a chelation agent. Examples of chelation agents are enzymes, amino acids, humic and fluvic acids, beneficial bacteria (but these are slower acting!) and synthetic flushing agents (faster acting!) that you can dilute a bit more than recommended. This problem is very much common so dont beat yourself up ! Hope this helps ! 🚀
Plants are coming along, noticed some more discolouring
Does the new growth seem healthy?
Waiting for the LSD25 runt to dry out before I flush it with some fulvic acid; hoping that helps it bounce back. It is still producing buds though, already going purple which is probably from the stress
Plants seem to be coming along nicely, can’t wait to harvest these. At day 46 the LSD25 looks great and finally the mexi is starting to flower it seems
Just looking for some input on how you think the grow is going so far or any advice towards growing LSD25 and Mexican Airlines. I’ve noticed some of the lower fan leaves yellowing and drying up, I read that is normal going into flowering just hope it doesn’t spread up the plant
Hey Dan the plantvon the top left looks about perfect. I would do some light defoliation on it removing some of the big leaves on top that are blocking light to lower bud sites. This will oncrease your yield. The plant on the bottom appears to be slightly overfed. You can tell by the dark green foliage. I would back off of the nitrogen just a little and she will do great. That lsd on the right is a different story though. She is showing major signs of stress and is in bad shape. I dee some signs of nutrient toxicity from the clawing leaves and some heat stress from the way some of are kinda curling like a taco. Once they hit flower you want to feed less nitrogen and more pk. I would give her plain water for a couple more feedings. I also noticed you dont have a ph listed. If your ph is out of range ot can cause a long list of issues. I would pick up a ph control kit if possible. I use the general hydroponics kit and it is easy to use. Hope this leads you in the right direction.
I’ve been busy lately but the ladies didn’t seem to mind. The Mexican Airlines is becoming very thirsty, will try to feed it more microbes and see how it responds to that. Have been feeding all the plants just water with some fulvic acid this week. Still haven’t calibrated my pen to check ph, still need to do that. The runt seems to still be hanging in and filling out, I might let that one go longer so she can fill out and let it go more amber. How much longer do you guys think for the LSD25 that is doing well? I’ll try to get some trichome shots for the next weeks update
The mexi has been stretching like crazy and starting to finally produce bud sites. The lsd25’s have been filling out, even the runt is making some nice purple nugs. Even though I messed up early on it goes to show how hardy these plants can be; great genetics. Been busy so I haven’t had time to stay on top of the diary posts
