So the leaf problems seem to have cleared up, I have created a ScrOG net and she is looking quite sorry for herself again but sure she will perk up over the next couple of days? End of the week and she has recovered nicely and looking B-E-A-UTIFUL again 😊😆

She has been on 12/12 for almost a week now and still no sign of any white pistils, although she is in full on stretch mode. I have ordered another 80w light to take the wattage up to 240w to help with flowering I just hope it arrives soon! Update Day 60 - She has been on 12/12 for 10 days now and still no sign of any white pistils yet. I do open the door exactly 1.5 minuets before the light comes on to take some flash photos I just hope this doesn’t affect her starting to bud. Anyone have any ideas or am I just being inpatient??? 🤔 Update Day 61 - they are small but they are there!! Houston we have pistils 👍🏼😆👍🏼

29-10-17 - Starting to bud nicely, but unfortunately I am definitely getting some kind of issues here!! Advice welcome!! Gonna get some cal-mag Tuesday hopefully this will help her out!! 31-10-17 - Started giving her cal-mag and bloom nutrients today. 1-11-17 - Removed the ScrOG net as I had to do some defoliation and there isnt enough room in the box to get to her easily! Also it wasn’t working correctly as I ran out of room! I’m hoping the stretch is coming to an end now, otherwise I’m screwed 😬

Yo! What’s happening my fellow bud brothers? 😉🌳😊 So day 72 and I have done quite a large defoliation to try and open up some of the lower bud sites!! She is looking good and starting to smell already!! Smells exactly like a strawberry 🍓 plant!! Check back over the next few days for more pictures on how she recovers from the defoliation. 👌🏻👍🏼 Day 74, got some serious issues going on with no reasonable explanation. The PH is good, there are no bugs present apart from a few pesky fungal nats which I have purchased some neem oil to take care of them, she has exactly the same conditions as Skunk #1 @GB mk2 in my other diary. Gonna have to keep a close eye on her 😢

I think the problems I am getting are due to root issues, and could be Phosphorus Deficiency. Day 83 - I’ve removed some of the most infected/dead leaves, dunno if this will help or make things worse, only time will tell I suppose. Day 84 - got home and the plug on the fans had fucked out, RH was at 75% 😢😡 can she get any more stressed out!! FFS!!!!!!

So I have all but given up on this plant! The yield is going to be shocking because of the issues I’ve had and I don’t think the buds will ever fatten up!! She is starting to frost up a bit tho on the plus side.

Problem: Cannabis leaves and roots show abnormal and slowed growth when showing a boron defiency. The first signs of a cannabis boron deficiency is abnormal or thick growth tips. New leaves may display chlorosis (yellowing of leaves). Stems may become rough or hollow. The plant may look like it has a calcium deficiency because boron is needed for the plant to properly use calcium. New growth is affected the most, and may look like it's been burnt or scorched. Solution: Boron is not absorbed will without enough potassium and nitrogen, or if there isn't enough moisture. You plant may also exhibit signs of a boron deficiency if the pH is too high or low. Flush your system with clean, pH'd water that contains about half the nutrients needed for the plant and watch to make sure that the problem clears up for new growth. I could be wrong here but what have looked up if it's not bugs this could be your issue

@@Tryhard, no problem. Yeah she seems a lot better now 😊I think it might have been a bit of root rot so I'm letting the soil dry out a lot more in between feeds now and I have removed all the affected leaves. So far so good 👍🏼

Can't wait to see smoke report. Strawberry cough is still the number one taste wise, to me. You won't be disapointed.

@LouShott, If it's anything like the one they sell in the netherland, it smells like strawberry syrup, you'd almost forget it's weed. Had a couple of friends do a blind test, none figured out what it was. Smoking it, it tastes a bit more like weed, but the strawberry is still strong. Very enjoyable high, not the strongest but SO enjoyable.

Hey I don't know what's happening with your plant but perhaps someone with more experience can say. Please also show the underside of the leaf. From the top I am suspicious of bugs. If you see any raised dots on the underside, that would confirm bugs. It can't hurt to spray with some (about 1-2l) water with 1/2 tsp each of soap like Dr Bronners and neem oil if you have it. Keep us posted.

LouShottcommented7 years ago
@TheFairyBudMother, Hey! Thanks for your comments 👍🏼 I have added a couple more pictures of the underneath of the leaves, I have checked well for bugs and can't see any with a magnifying glass. But can't rule them out I suppose. I am going to take your advise and spray her today 👍🏼

This is about the time where you start to see deficiencies. Probably is just some CAL/MAg issues. I would also look at the pH of your soil..

@LouShott, Ahahah...anyway bro, considering that medium is soil and your ph is 6.3, I suggest you to put up ph at 6.5-6.6. P assimilation in soil is optimal in range 6.5-7! Ahahah I'm still laughing for the first answer. Sorry bro

She looks like she needs more P but you already feed a lot... pH lockout maybe? Is your meter well calibrated ?

@LouShott, everyone makes mistakes and learn ! That's what makes it interesting in my opinion. Glad you're being optimistic. I'm still sure she's gonna have a great taste! How's the smell so far?
LouShott
LouShottcommented7 years ago
@Yogsothoth, unfortunately I don’t have a ph meter atm only the paper testers, I have been reading up and because she was reveged after I already fucked her up and the original soil she was in wasn’t good it all probably all stems from there!! Also I have been defoliating her when she wasn’t 100% healthy so that can’t of helped!! Oh well you live and lurn I suppose! Thanks for your comments 👍🏼

Kenderembercommentedweek 117 years ago
I think you should give her less feed and check the run out water PH! And give 24 C water. 17 C is cold for the roots.

Hi mate, the plants are looking so great, congratulations. I have a small problem, I took the plants to the flowering period. Its been almost 3 weeks but the buds are so small nearly they cannot be seen. Its my first planting, so if you look at my diary and give me advices, I would be so thankfull. Best regards, and good harvest. 🙂

Hi! Is it organic growth? I found when i use old timer bloom i must not adjust ph and not use pk bloom boost because they wreak havoc with soil ph and kills micros in soil, bad... With good organic soil(your choice) add Mycorrhiza with micros around roots and use a root stimulant. Oldtimers nutrients only when needed( if rich soil and good transplant timing you will only need bloom sparingly) Some times when needed you can use epsom foliar spray ( only lower leaf when in full bloom)
