Apologies for the late entry this week as I was travelling this past weekend. So this entry is being done on Day 32 for the larger two Green Crack and Day 8 for the new seedlings. Week 4 was a better week with substantial growth for both of the older plants as well as both of them moving into flower too! The largest of the older plants is now at 33" tall while the shorter one is at a respectable 21". The larger of the ladies is loaded with bud sites while the shorter is bushy but bare (substantially less bud site development). The seedlings are both growing nicely and will be topped on their Day 14 (next Monday/Tuesday). I amended the top layer of CoCo LoCo on the older plants yesterday with Gaia Green Organic Dry Fertilizer using 4 tablespoons of PowerBloom per plant, then watered it in well. I felt that the older plants were looking a little light in colour, hungry with all the rapid growth in week 4. I upped the CalMag to 3.5 mls/gallon as well for the larger plants and of course CalMag for the seedlings will be started in week 3 as a preventative measure. Based on what I’ve seen so far, these plants have the potential to be quite large and perhaps out grow my 3x3 tent! I am giving credit for this explosive growth to good genetics (impressed with Fastbuds so far!) and the addition of the second Electric Sky 180 (thank you Dan at GSC!). I am super impressed with the quantity/quality of these two lights together and I would highly recommended these fixtures to growers seeking simple, efficient, beautiful lights that really work! I love my ES180’s and the plants have responded super well too! That’s it for this week, thx for checkin in and happy growing everyone. 😺

So- largest plant (photos above) yellowing lower fan leaves, overall light green colour on the entire plant. Possible Nitrogen deficiency? Otherwise she is healthy, budding up well and looks great. Any thoughts from the GD community? Thx as always!

Hello my friend😊 It is highly possible that it is possible Nitrogen deficiency Nitrogen deficiency in cannabis plants: When cannabis plants do not have a balanced nutrition and lack this element, there are anomalies in their development, visible through the morphology of the plant, which we call deficiencies. Plant growth is much slower. The leaves turn yellow little by little, starting with the lower parts of the plant. The chlorosis begins with the tips and extends to the center of the leaf. Plants have fewer defenses against insect or mite infestations, diseases and bad weather. Flowering and the eventual production of seeds are seriously diminished. Massive defoliation (leaf drop) after severe chlorosis. Deficiency progresses from the bottom to the top, affecting the youngest leaves last. To solve the problem quickly it will be necessary to add to the nutrient solution a fertilizer rich in nitrogen so that the plants can recover their optimum levels of this nutrient a few days after watering. During growth and during stretching, it is also possible to use a nitrogen fertilizer exceptionally directly as a foliar spray, for faster assimilation than by the roots. It should be noted that when plants have these deficiencies their production capacity has already decreased, so that it is important to maintain a balanced diet throughout the crop in order to obtain optimal quality and production. It is very important to bring enough nitrogen to the plant during periods of growth and stretch, because then once in full bloom, it will be very difficult or impossible to catch a nitrogen deficiency, the roots of the plant having at this stage lost almost all capacity of assimilation of this element. If the nitrogen reserves of the plant are not sufficient for the stretch, it will yellow quickly once in flowering. Good luck for your grow 😉 May the force be with you 💪

Yellowing on leaves, affecting top of plant first and working it’s way down. She’s hardly drinking any water but still doing her best to keep growing. Not sure if this is a deficiency or what, never seen this before. Any thoughts/advice is greatly appreciated- thx and merry xmas!

hey there Mom, sorry i'm seeing this late ! so yeah the way the yellowing is starting on the serrated edges of the leafs and working it's way inwards is a magnesium deficiency symptom probably due to the heavy light schedule. You kinda want to dial the lights back during this stage of flower (sort of mimicking nature's shortening day) , terps and THC get zapped by the light and most of it will be produced during dark hours - so it's not a bad idea to give more dark hours. What else helps is giving pH 6 water instead of 6.5, the soil will buffer it to 6.5 anyway and the lower pH helps with the micro nutrients. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Great results with those lights!!! I love my ES 300 in my 2x4, but damn...2 ES 180's in 3x3...wow that's some serious light!👏👏👏👍

@DeaneR, absolutely! All made possible by Dan at the Green Sunshine Company, thank you.

I think your plants look great. With the amount of top growth you have I'm not surprised she was stealing some nitrogen from the lower leaves. It's not unusual to lose a few of the oldest lower fan leaves by this point of the grow. Since you just fed her I would give her a bit of time before adding more nutrients unless the leaf yellowing starts to move up higher in the plant or if the stems of the leaves start to turn red higher up. I do agree with lowering your ph into the 5.8 to 6.3 range it would be better for nutrient absorption.

Hi! what do you think about electricsky? I have one I just order a second v2 300 to my 4x4 tent Thanks and great job

@Momgrowsthechronic,Awesome!!! also very excited wit your commend because today I just got my second lamp yeiiiiii. What height did you use in both stages?

@bungolio, I swear by my Electric Sky made by The Green Sunshine Company! I have recently been fortunate enough to add a second ES 180 to my 3x3 tent and the plants are loving it. I am on track to have one of the largest plants with the most bud on a single plant that I have ever grown! The true wideband spectrum of light that these fixtures offer is perfect for Cannabis from seedling to veg right thru flower. I couldn’t be happier, thank you Dan at GSC- this grow is just for you!

What size of pots are you using? I'm wondering if it's root bound. I have this problem this summer... my pots were 10gal but at some point the roots were bound. My plants looked about as big as ours... you can look at my Purple Kush Outdoor grow to compare... not sure if it will be helpful, ya never know.

@Njanne, I am quite sure that these lovely ladies are not root bound but thanks for the advice- always appreciated!

I agree with nitrogen deficiency. Yellow leaves usually indicate the plant wants more nitrogen. But it could also be a ph issue. Good luck!

I'm following closely. I have some FB Blue Dreamatic and Pineapple Express in my refrigerator. I hear they can get pretty large and I was contemplating about trying to FIM them when I grow them. May have to top them if they take off with growth like you have.
