Royal Jack Automatic:
This week has been pretty tricky for this one, I tried to recover from the Nitrogen overfertilization and got a PH Lockout (Murphy's Law is never wrong) 😅
This little girl has been badly mistreated, but she shown some real strenght and resilience 💪
Some fan leaves are turning yellow but i thing it is because we're almost there 😎
Trichomes are more or less 20% transparent 70% white 10% amber (on the top flowers), I started with the flush and I think i'm going to make some progressive harvest starting from next week.
Let me know what do you think about it 😄
Royal Critical Automatic:
This girl is growing nicely, it's not stretching so much, i think it is a little late with the flowering stage, she's being fed with a nice dose of nutes and had some LST.
She is very bushy so I think I'm going to defoliate her as soon as she start to pop out some trichomes 👽
Noticed claw leaves and purple stem, identified Nitrogen overfert, also had some tips burnt
Once I reduced the nutrients some leaves turned yellow, at the same time the burns spread
Flushed the soil with ph balanced water and stopped nutes
What should I do now?
looks like you had a nitrogen abundance for sure! Flushing was a good choice. Make sure to start feeding with a lower (very low) dose of nitrogen after the flush BUT you have also flushed all the other nutrients than nitrogen. Meaning:
Leaves turning yellow after the flush would be quite a fast reaction (from nitrogen abundance to nitrogen deficiency)
Its more likely that you have washed out all of the magnesium and the plant suffers from a magnesium deficiency.
(Symptoms are almost the same as nitrogen deficiency)
I would recommend adding some extra CalMag + feeding with half amount of nitrogen that you've used before. If all the leaves turn pale green (although you've been feeding extra CalMag) you can consider raising the amount of nitrogen again until you've found the sweet spot for nitrogen.
I'm growing the exact same strains atm. It's my first grow to and I'm really excited. at day 20 for my plants.
Do they stink badly and which one stinks the most?
@Mydutchgrows, awesome!! 😍👍
At the moment the Royal Jack is pretty stinky but it's under control thanks to a little carbon filter, when i leave the growbox open for few minutes the smell goes all over the room, but it is not extremely intense and if you open the windows for 10 minutes everything returns to normality. 👌
Consider that I'm growing in 3.8 L pots and the plants are little.
The Critical has just begun the flowering stage, so it's not really stinky yet.
I'll keep posting updates in the next weeks 😁
Good luck with your grow!!! 💪😎
