Dirtydraggel Moved over to 4x3gallon smart pots and 1x5 gallon smart pot. Named the plants to get more personal, obviously based on a theme. Maybe someone over the age of 25 will know what it is? Watered with 1 liter per plant except for Bosley, that one got 1.5liter. I feel like I might need to add more water but skeptical to it. This is my third time trying to grow, first time with a proper setup not solo cups and a HPS light in the basement but an actual tent and LED light with decent air traffic.
Any comments/suggestions always appreciated.

Dirtydraggel Second one looks like it's dying and not sure why, sticking with the same 72hour schedule for watering for all the plants. The others looked better compared to last weeks pictures.

Dirtydraggel beginning of week 5.. looking like a cal mag deficiency and discussed with a few people that said it might be that as well. Ordered calmag nutrigents for them that will go in the next feeding. Should be in the next few days.
Dirtydraggel Girls were due for a watering last night, added water and calmag supplements as part of recommendations both here and on reddit. Will take a picture later today or tomorrow when the LED is off for a better quality/visual of the actual colors of the plants.

Dirtydraggel Pic 1 is about 6-7 inches, all the plants are showing the same 'yellowing' on the bottom leafs.
Pic 2 is about 3-4 inches
Pic 3 is about 8-9
Pic 4 is 12 inches now
Pic 5 is 6-7 inches.
See week 7 for the yellowing of the tips without the LED light. Will try and take pictures before the light turn on tonight.

Dirtydraggel Still one little guy struggling, the middle one took off (different soil probably why) Not sure when to start flowering, might just throw 4 out and stick with the big one. Deff doing autoflowering next time since I'm still very green to this.

Dirtydraggel No nutes for the past 2 weeks now and all of them seem to be growing slow and steady. Not sure when to switch over or what to do with the dead leaves but i'm sure someone will help out with that in the comments. The middle one is getting pretty big right about now too.

Dirtydraggel Might move 2-3 plants (the smallest ones) to another tent. Been thinking about buying a 2nd tent to be able and switch the two bigger ones to flowering since they seem so far ahead. Almost 20" tall now. Feedback is welcomed.

Dirtydraggel Switched over to flowering now, win or lose it's a learning experience. Ordered another tent as well as the same soil I used for the "big" plant. Also ordered a little "easier" crops according to their descriptions.
For these they actually picked up a little bit at the end, all but one. She's dead to me.

Dirtydraggel Had a real scare with 1 plant 5 days ago. Wasn't sure but seemed to be under watered, moved it in to it's own tent to see if it was able to be recovered, so far so good.
Smell is getting weaker sadly, also lost power for 24 hours so not sure how the plants looks now.

Dirtydraggel The failure of a plant seems to have recovered with a little TLC this week. Even the smallest plant that I thought for sure was a goner recovered a little, reaching about 10 inches now. Giving Fox farm nutes every 4th watering right now, need to get a soil testing kit to make sure the soil is good. The PH for waterings are about 6.5-6.7 with the fox farm. Hopefully about 5 more weeks then I should be able to harvest this. That's the magic number I put in my head unless someone else has a better number?

Dirtydraggel Last week watered with big bloom and tiger bloom once, and once with just big bloom. Both times 10ml/gallon. Next watering (today) will be straight water with a ph of 6.0. After getting the ph tester I feel like I test the water in my house about 5 times a day with strips/drops/digital meter and so far it's amazing to see the difference. The first 2 months I've watered with 7+ ph every time. Last 2 weeks is when I've actually taken control over it.

Dirtydraggel If the estimate is right on nirvana's website I got 1-3 weeks left but it feels like they might need more. The nugs are not that big still and even the plants are not that big. About 20"+ for the biggest one and 15 for smallest.
I’ve got to say you’ve got me a little stumped. Your plants have shown nute burn from a very early stage of growth on through now. But I dont think that’s the only thing that is causing your drooping leaves I believe that is because your low humidity. Your plants look to me like they are getting to much mag but the only nutrients that you’ve listed don’t contain any so there are some inconsistencies that aren’t making sense to me.
Dirtydraggel Was out of town this week so had my BIL water each plant with just .5L of plain water, felt the plants this morning and they were on the way to get a little dry. Will do a feeding today with nutes and hopefully it will be the last as it has been flowering for 7 weeks now. Any suggestions to how much is left is greatly appreciated.

Dirtydraggel Dont think these are going to get much bigger, my other grow is only 4 weeks and about to pass these girls in height. Hopefully I should be able and harvest these in 2 weeks or less so I can start another grow and hopefully doing it right this time.
I put normal and neutral since this was my first grow and I learned a lot. Will have to buy more of these seeds so I can try it again after picking up a ton of information during the first time around

Dirtydraggel First grow and doing a CBD was probably not the best choice as it took super long because of my inexperience but I stuck with it and got some smokable weed that worked perfectly. Only smoked about 4gs of it so far letting the rest cure for a while. For some reason the first night it tasted like seaweed and the second night just like any other medical strain. If you have grown two or three plants before I recommend trying this strain. Even with a fuck up like me it gets the job done and more
@PigBearMan, I send that image to everyone I can my dude. Thank you for helping people <3
I have a 3 foot by 5 foot poster of that bad boy framed in my grow room :D
@Ripper, Thanks man, feel like they all were dying but got hopes on one at least making it. Will put up better pictures later today or tomorrow without the LED brightness.
Congratz on the recovery. I use foxfarm soil, and I find it stays at a neutral level around 7. This is ok for soil as it acts as a buffer for nutrient uptake so there is a little more wiggle room. The only Problem I've forseen would be iron uptake which tapers off at the 7-7. 3 range, so I usually water at about a 6.0-6.2 area then I measure my runoff about once a week. It usually stays around 6.5-6.7 afterward.
@Jeff123fish, the sad part is that I never really used nutes in the beginning, I think I used it once or twice during the first 5-6 weeks at half the dosage so then when people said nutes burn I just stopped. Picked it up again following fox farm schedule in week 15/16.
@Dirtydraggel, well if I’m seeing things right it looks like the cheap Lowe’s mix causes you a lot of problems and the better soil from Amazon has much healthier plants. Maybe the cheaper soil is compacted and restricting root growth? Or preventing your roots from getting good air flow? I would check to make sure it’s still light and fluffy
@Jeff123fish, https://www.lowes.com/pd/EcoScraps-32-Quart-Container-Mix/999990018 is the lowes soild and https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00553BLPA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 is the az soil. Neither of the plants are really "fluffy" in the dirt its rather compact
@Dirtydraggel, after looking up your soils I’m going with that as your biggest problem as this stuff if nothing else is wildly inconsistent some is really hot some won’t hold water but most of all the bag says it’s meant to be used with other soils as a soil amender
Yep, looks like you're recovering or the symptoms would have spread. That's always a bit slow going. Thankfully it's a photo and you can just veg a bit longer!
You should be able to re-introduce properly dosed and pH-balanced nutes starting at weak feed and moving up if you want to be paranoid. If you want to be sure, you can water them in a tray and test the runoff to make sure the bottom of the pot's pH isn't too off.
She's gonna do fine!
@Dirtydraggel, Do you have any idea about your pH?
There is a deficiency of some nutrients in your plant, but I think it’s because the plant can’t absorb the nutrients.
Not due to too little added nutrients.
If your pH is too high or too low, the plant won’t be able to absorb the nutrients and will start taking nutrients from the leaves instead of the soil and roots.
Your pH should be steadily between 5.8-6.3 in the nutrient solution mixed with water for optimal nutrient uptake.
What type of nutrients are you using and what brand?
How often do you give it nutrients?
When the plant starts looking like that, it’s getting urgent to do something and do it right.
So if I can find out what I asked about, I can probably help you get things sorted out quickly.
@CBD_Sweden, I've checked a bit with this https://www.amazon.com/Moisture-acidity-Outdoor-Battery-Indicator/dp/B01M1CRG6R/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1515678868&sr=8-11&keywords=ph+reader but it doesn't seem to give the best results. It helps a lot to see when to water now though. I've used Fox Farm Veg 2 times, the last time was 12/31/17 with 3 tbsp per gallon (it said 3-4 on the bottle) before that I didn't use any nutrients. I watered on Sunday and haven't added anything else since 3/5 plants still show 'wet' on the meter and 2 are moist (1-10 scale, 1-4 dry, 4-7 moist, 8-10 wet). If I'm a bit lucky today, one plant will be dry when I get home so it can be my experiment.
@Dirtydraggel, okay.
So I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the experiment goes well.
I recommend that you flush the plant thoroughly with water adjusted to a pH of 6 and then let it dry out for several days, and then give it plenty of nutrients and water, and it will be happy.
You should flush the plant once during veg a week or two before you start flowering and once more when the stretch in flowering is done, and then 2 weeks before harvest.
But the most important thing when using nutrients is to maintain a consistent pH around 6 and to let the plant dry out after watering before giving water/nutrients again.
If the pH in the plant is too high or too low, you can use a liter of nutrients, and the plant still won't be able to take up the nutrients and shows signs of nutrient deficiency.
The plant starts to consume itself in the search for nutrients.
@Dirtydraggel, This came up on my Twitter feed this morning. Maybe your humidity is too low.
https://hightimes.com/grow/grow-qa-why-are-my-pot-leaves-drooping/
@DudeGrowsWeed, Humidity in that tent is between 28-35% always have been, also PHdown after big bloom. Last 2 waterings have been straight water now and the third one will be as well (going out of town and left simple instructions to brother in law) Added 2 new pictures without the purple light
Looks like it had a hard time during one of its rooting phases in early veg. Good salvage, tbh.
How is the effect medically? Very interested in "trip reports" on different CBD strains; some are better for some symptoms than others.
@Jaindoh, Still got most of it in curing however whatever I smoked after 3 days was very relaxing, not a couch lock but couldn't feel the back pain (2 torn discs) for a while and slept pretty good. No dry mouth, no couch from it, was smooth. The flavor was like seaweed probably cause it was a little wet but the second time had no real taste.
@Dirtydraggel, would guess the taste is the chlorophyll. Takes a long time to break it down, shortened by keeping the bud from drying out (iirc, the living plant breaks the chlorophyll down itself, whereas once it dies the process takes longer).
Curing is harder than it sounds; some people have better first luck, I'm just now getting my results more consistent several grows in.
@Jaindoh, Switched them yesterday all 5, yolo. Ordered a second tent since this is actually kind of fun and ordered some white widow to try next. Hopefully this will turn out somewhat nice, deff not doing it for the money since I've sunk in $1k into it now without smoking (so far)
@Dirtydraggel, i know the feeling, as soon as you cure it out and make it a month or two without buying and can go "okay that tent is in the black" it feels a lot better. Then you need more stuff and youre like "argh i'm months in and back in the red"
then you get the next crops after that and it's just like "oh man, this is gonna be CHEAP" XD
