11/10 Week 7 Long week Maggie is responding well to treatment, will continue until I see something that says its gone far enough. I know she needs defoliation but I just hate to take health(ish) leaves when its already stressed. Maybe next week air flow is good. May add some sulfer to the mix but keeping it as is otherwise, 6.8 PH, 1-2% H2O2 and CalMag in a day or two as she drys. Brandy... not sure it did as much for her but see nothing that says stop so will continue as the pot drys. Layla ya got me on my knees... shes my girl. lovely not perfect but has handled things that left other plants stunted and yellowed. Were she a photo I would have cloned her. Continuing feeding as I have, may add Karo may not, defoliation continues as needed. May this continue God willing and the creek dont rise. Last note - Raised the lights up 4 inches to 22" for better dispersal across the canopy now that its getting used. Think this strain likes that. 11/11 Looking better. Did some defoliation on Maggie, nothing stressing and mostly damaged leaves though some were for blocking bud sites Same on Brandy though less so. Picking up some chemical bloom nuets so I can continue lightly feeding them through these treatments, the organics are getting blasted by the h2o2 Layla looking her usual lovely self, buds building, her and Maggie get fed today, Brandy still too wet. 11/12 Brandy still not dry enough, may adopt the feeding I set out for Maggie below when it is time. Changing the treatment on Maggie, for one feed only dropping the calmag and adding two TBS of Epson salts , fish sh!t and recharge to get the bug healthy, and continue the cocotek nuets for the time being, it the only mineral fert I have, to the water at 6.5 PH . Believe the H2O2 has done all its going to do repairing the roots and now I can address the sulfur (i hope) issue. Plant is huge BTW so if I get her producing, yield is going to be huge. IF Layla just continue as before, the Dr Earth is doing a marvelous job of covering all the bases. Will absolutely use this when I go back to organics. Had to reset the lights again... Maggie :) 11/13 New Pics of Maggie as she is the only one causing me concern, no feed today still too wet Defoliated bottom 1/3 of Maggie getting rid of all unwanted under growth. Will continue as it goes. Large leaves looking normal now. 11/14 Feeding time: Maggie and Brandy - 1 gal at 6.5 1.5 TBS Epsom Salt (decided to hit the middle), 5ml cocotek A&B , 6ml Fish Sh!t holding the recharge for next time. Layla - 1 gal at 6.5 5ml Cal Mag , 5ml Bio-Bloom, 5ml Fish Sh!t Getting a bit of height growth on Maggie. Expect more if we are right on this. Decided to hold off a mag/Sulfur foliar until tomorrow if needed. New Vid posted few minutes post feed. Maggie was a bit dry as she is really drinking 11/15 New Vid Foliar feed of 1.5 TBS Epsom Salt / gal unPH water on Maggie primarily though also hit Layla and Brandy. Only the very top of the colas now have the paleness so progress.

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 itโ€™s drying out in just one it likely needs more water at a time). Itโ€™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? ๐Ÿš€ good luck growmie ๐Ÿ‘Š

@CRiSPrGrow, Oh yeah it can solved just no need at present to do so, and I can be lazy ๐Ÿ˜ 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
rhodes68
rhodes68commented5 years ago
@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. ๐Ÿ‘

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.๐Ÿ‘

rhodes68commented5 years ago
@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.
rhodes68
rhodes68commented5 years ago
@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 ๐Ÿ˜‡ 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 ๐Ÿ˜‰

rhodes68commented5 years ago
@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
DankGardenercommented5 years ago
@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 ๐Ÿ‘ Update: Huge turn around in just a few hours. ๐Ÿ™ 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?
