9/24 Four Stardawg in the water on the heat mat under Woodstock's watchful eye, been wanting to grow this since I got the seeds last winter, time has come. 9/26 Always hate this part of the grow, only one tail is showing this morning and two looking like they may not germ, keeping them on the paper towel for now. 9/27 two had tails long enough to plant , one out but still short and one that is looking dead. Planted the two, the other two remain on the towel. * I am going to pop the last SD seed I have to try and get a full grow here that seed is dead as nothing has happened since it popped open. 9/28 All three with tails now planted, fourth left on towel just because, last Stardawg dropped to take its place, if I get 5 oh well such problems. May be day one wait and see. Wife found a Runtz we got free and decided to try it out so it may show up from time to time 9/29 Ok meet Brandy Layla and Maggie the connection ? Guess πŸ˜‰ So far those three look strong and have begun to stretch so light lowered slightly. Have scarred the first seed that will not pop and put it back into the water in a perhaps vain attempt. The second that wont pop is being left in the water one more day, if nothing I will scar it also. Looking like a three plant grow dang it. If so I will go to 7 gal pots to try and recover some yield, three will fit in the small tent easily. Glad to get three good ones but ah well 10/1 Its a three plant grow into 7 gal fabric pots. The other two did not pop and I am throwing in the towel on them, just nothing works. Not happy about that rate but I have three good plants it seems at the moment and for that I am grateful , will be changing my buying habits based on the Stardawg and Mex-Air germ rates... heh no reason not to. Just water for now, wet the 707 soil I am using to start and top dress with bio-grow 1ml and kangaroots 2ml so they are fed enough till transplant at end of week 10/2 Made up the 7 gal pots for the grow. PH of pots are 6.8 no dolomite or sulfur needed. Mix of 1/2 new Roots Organics 707 and 1/2 reclaimed 707 / amended each with 1/4 cup Dr. Earth/ 3tbs Mykos/ 3tbs Happy Frog (just for the culture). Soaked to runoff each pot with 1 gal and 1 tsp Fix Mix/ 0.5 tsp Rechrg / 1tbs Big Bloom Plan is to let them sit a few days and get those six cultures going before transplant. Feeding from here will be at 1/2 suggested and add Dr. Earth Flower Girl when time. 10/4 Week. end with a one time light feeding of bio-grow and Cal-Mag, just kind of waved them at the water. Transplanting very soon

rhodes68started grow question 5 years ago
See pics Brandy and Maggie curled leaves-yellowing-spotting so making an attempt to fix the issue with a 6.1 PH root drench of Cal-Mag 5ml and Kangaroots 10ml / gal about 2 gal for each plenty of runoff that tested at 6.1 PH. Soil has tested twice at 6.5-6.8, notes in grow. idea?

DankGardeneranswered grow question 5 years ago
Sometimes leaves will tend to cup or curl down due to root problems but sometimes the curl upwards too. One warning flag was that the plant was drying out every day (you should only have to water your plant every few days, if it’s drying out in just one it likely needs more water at a time). It’s always a good idea to listen to your plants when deciding when to water, as opposed to following a set schedule. Each plant and environment is different, and what works for some plants may not work as well for others!

The further I move the lights out, they are now at twice the "ideal" placement of 14" at 28" and the yellowing on Maggie and Bra is disappearing to a great extent. Do yall know of any deficiency that makes a plant highly susceptible to light burn?

Gonna follow this one, i guess you'll catch me up since you're indoors and I just started outdoors, i can tell i'll be drooling over these indoor ones in like 6 to 7 weeks , with LST and a FIM or two it might be that you get this over full tent anyway, one can only hope right? πŸš€ good luck growmie πŸ‘Š

@CRiSPrGrow, Oh yeah it can solved just no need at present to do so, and I can be lazy 😁 I cannot see any situation barring inability to get seed for going photo indoors, outdoors absolutely, so for now its ok. Adding some netting behind the germ station just to prevent accidents. Now that stuff I do lol

@CRiSPrGrow, Lol basically my philosophy is becoming just get out of the way of the great genetics. Pushing causes more problems than not IMHO. So much easier to raise healthy plants and forget the litany of complications available. Yes God has this thing booked, but that's just the system we have to operate well within it to be successful. I am 11-0 with "bag seed" 8 for me three for a friend, least stressful germ ever I mean inch and a half tails in less than a day on the paper towel though we did have to nurse a couple as expected. See those seed are completely mature, the bad ones get discarded. Cant do that with $10 a pop seeds. πŸ‘

If you spray the foliage be sure to get under the leaves and try to do it when the lights aren't on and make sure the leaves are dry before they come on. It looks like maybe an iron possibly a sulfur deficiency or both. If the soil ph is that high most likely sulfur. Hopefully the Epsom salt will correct it. You can also try to use an Epsom salt foliage spray 1 tsp per gallon of water once or twice a week until it improves.πŸ‘

@Philindicus, That is my hope thus the rooting drench and they are picking up as normal leaves are appearing though yellowed. Keep looking at Layla and thinking what could have been heh. Already planning next grow in 70-30 or 60-40 buffered coco coir and perlite. I still see soil as the better medium but this kind of issue makes unknowns a big deal. For now the soil can stay outdoors.

@Philindicus, I also thought of a combination of genetics (making the plant more susceptible) and a partial lockout reducing the supply of particular nuets. No way of proving that of course but these are all Fast Bud and they share a common ancestor in ruderalis or so goes the rumor. I can reestablish biological cultures, good dose of Recharge and Fish Sh!t would do that or so goes the conventional wisdom.

@rhodes68, They will problably pull through this once the roots fill those 7 gallon pots and start pulling in the nutrients.

@Buddha2, It seems something clicked with us during the Stardawg grow. It was so difficult yet during all of it our plants got bigger. Switching to coco was the last piece of the puzzle. Basically I just follow Dr. MJCoco's book, it is on amazon or on his site for free. Heh look Ma! I can follow directions πŸ˜‡ See on a serious note my wife has medical issues as do I and this is giving us a new lease on life. Motivation is always important aint it πŸ˜‰

@EZgrower, Thank you Yeah I always seem to find new and interesting ways to kill a plant, haven't succeeded yet but I try πŸ˜‹ I grow due to my wife's tumor protocol, she is even growing now check out HisHope and great little Runtz plant we can upon simply by fortune. We ingest everything, I have COPD and should not, hell wont smoke. but I am eyeing a dry herb vape πŸ˜‡ Miss smoking my one hitter that we used while living in a prison state and cannabis hard to come by, we live in a freer state now.

@DankGardener, There is a misunderstanding, they have only been watered twice in 8 days last being 2 days ago when I did the root drench on Brandy and Maggie. Layla has yet to have her second watering so its been 7 full days for her when I water tonight at lights on. Ambient humidity has been high-ish due to weather so plants are not drying out quickly, even my other grow is drinking slow lately. Have lowered humidity but doubt it an issue. My concern for overwatering was due to pot size at transplant only and now I doubt that what I saw on was overwatering. I agree with the root thing though, something is going on down there but only have one tool left in the box, peroxide. So waiting to see
DankGardener
DankGardener
@rhodes68, I think your root problem is caused by underwatering. If the soil is drying out everyday yes you are underwatering. Seedlings like to be watered ever 2 to 3 days. If it goes past give less water but if it's drying out in 1 day give more

To the folks so kind as to answer the Grow Question Thanks :) I perhaps used the wrong term as it gets a little grey, Light Bleaching is what I should have called it. Light burn itself is no mystery to us and what I am looking for is some explanation of why the plant is so susceptible to it. PH, root drenches, and all other considerations have been done to death on this plant and either present a dead end or beyond me to correct. The Ca Def though that is what I was trying to remember and heard somewhere once months ago so I knew it had to be something. It fits with the issues all along the grow on this plant. Going to begin Cal-Mag foliar feeding next opportunity. Thanks Grey_Wolf πŸ‘ Update: Huge turn around in just a few hours. πŸ™ A lot of insight tonight on why the last cal-mag foliar didn't work. Full strength and the wetting agent plus there are a lot more healthy leaves on the plant now to take in the nuets. Changing my track to foliar for the deficiencies and the pot for hard hitters. Seems simple stupid now but too much at once on this grow. My Dad always said I wasn't happy unless I was knee deep in alligators ... yeah he knew me. Heheh no chit huh folks anyway thanks guys love the site. Now I am gonna take a good dose of LSD-25 kick back and look at the plant a bit. helps me think deep thoughts err folks?
