Day 113, 8/29, Day 43 of flowering: So I've got some nutrient burn. I'm just slightly worried about these brown spots I have on two of my largest fan leaves. Concerned these aren't frm previous nutrient burn... Some of the lower growth is starting to get a lighter green color, I expect them to begin yellowing soon. Day 114: Partially hung up on the bronze spots, trying to be diligent on looking for any additional stress. No additional signs of spreading that I see. The only thing I could fathom would be Calcium or Magnesium deficiencies. I wouldn't think it a issue with the 60% FFOF (30% Coir, 10% add'l Perlite). Day 115: Trichomes are still glassy and we've only seen half of the pistils darken at this point. So wouldn't be surprised if we went another week or two after this one. Clean watering tonight, runoff was aimed to be higher and delivered at 6.8. Debating a staged watering next fees where I add 2L with quarter strength CalMag to address worries and then after 15-20 mins doing a full 4L with quarter strength AN Seniszyme and a tsp of Molasses. I definitely need to go 6L for watering now as I want considerable runoff now. After that feeding, will do a clean feed, then flush (staged in 2 flights as above above, but with Flawless Finish), then clean til harvest. Day 116: More tying for weight offset, but I think it's a losing battle. I'm going to try to drop the net down over her I think... Day 117: Not thrilled with whatever discoloration is going on toward the top on this single bud. I've pulled the lights up an inch. Day 118: Watering tonight: 2 staged watering. 4L of 6.6pH water with 2ml of AN CalMag (quarter strength), about 20mins after another 4L of 6.6pH with 2ml total of Blackstrap Molasses and 2ml of Senizyme for the entire 4L. Runoff was 6.38 and 1130ppm so that I guess confirms a possible minor lockout out on Calcium or Magnesium, if not also nutrient burn. That's in on nutes folks; clean Ph correction here on out. Day 119: She is certainly getting bulkier. We were able to drop a trellis down for support.

Topping Question: When Topping, tutorials state to wait til you have 4-6 nodes. Does this count the cotyledon leaves, or for that matter the first single serrated leaf? Where do you begin counting nodes? Thanks in advance!

Sorry - Another topping / training question: When is the best time to "Top" your plants in regards to time of the day, e.g. morning/midday/night in terms of light schedule? In short: do you cuts your plants when the lights come on, before they go off, or somewhere in between?

I don't think it makes a difference really. Whatever time is most suitable for yourself. For me it is in the morning before lights go off or sometimes in the evening when the just come on. What I will say though, is make sure she's well fed and healthy looking before doing and most strains bounce back very, very quickly. 👍🌱

I'm looking to rest my concerns that these removed fan leaves from lower/center canopy are not simply just appearing so due to lack of light and prior plant tie damage. Focus on the yellow/brown discoloration, actual physical damage is accounted for. More details in main post.

After reading the main post and checking out the leaves that you removed, I would have to say it is from lack of light and prior tie damage. Everything else seems fine.

Smokin_Joestarted grow question 4 years ago
Getting ready to install carbon filter; found myself wondering if growers typically leave their filters/exhaust/fans on during dark periods? Up to this point, I've had everything on one power-strip/timer: circulation fan, exhaust fans, and lights. Should I keep anything on 24/7?

Most definitely need to run fans always. Humid stagnant air Is molds best friend. Cutting the fans off is inviting mould to germinate and take over. U always want air exchange and airflow in ur tent. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

I'm not sure if this is nutrient burn or some sort of deficiency. Burnt tips were from possible previous nutrient burn, but now I'm seeing Brown spots and some discoloration. Please check my week to see full details.

I'm still not sure if this is a deficiency or some sort of burn. It's definitely spreading a bit more, and I'm unsure if there's time left to address it in the grow. Video of full plant in week.

looks like a magnesium deficiency. I checked your nutrient feed. I would have had you up the cal mag but you are so close to harvest. Having issues with this during the flush is not unusual. Your strain sat 50-55 days and you are in week 8 of flower I would recommend you flush / leach your plants of nutrients and chop very soon.

@Bootymissles, I'll have to look into it. Really hoping to find some steady 1:1 genetics - or even better 2:3 ala Harle Tsu, Harlequin or Orange Herijuana strains. My fear is that the 2-3 folk who have tested this strain by this breeder (Reviews here &@ Seedsman) reported no CBD. I've no way of testing as the regulations in my area only allow craft testing and none for medical home grows yet despite legality. I note that Garden of Green is the breeder of both of our grows. If you end up getting a sample tested of the KnC CBD, would be very interested in the results!

Wow good job bro for first time. Only gets better. How often do you use your calmag? I use 1ml per liter in every watering. Even with the fertilizer. Even though advanced nutrients says it has calmag added. There is something about LED lights and calmag deficiency. I use the 3 part ph perfect and I don't have problems anymore. My last grow I had the cotyldons turn yellow after 3-4 days and the leaves starting turning yellow a few days after. But once my fertilizer and calmag came it fixed it within a week and they took off. I used it on my new grow diary and watered my seedlings before they even popped out of the soil. I mixed it really weak. I used 1ml per.liter and they have been green since they popped up. Starting 4th set of leaves and the cotyldons are still green. Good job buddy 🤜🤛

@Rock_n_Roll_Randy, you know what - I didn't really use a lot this grow, and kinda introduced it late on I believe, I'd have to go back through the weeks to see, but the bottle I have is still super full. Got me wondering if the auto's I have now might need some. And thanks for the props!

Looking really good! You seem to be doing very well for ur first time? Cannabis is like kids... ur super nervous with the first one because everything is new. But by the time you have a second, third, fourth, etc... ur like an old pro. You figure out what’s really important, what’s worry worthy and you realize that you can relax and enjoy the experience before it’s all over and you are on to the next grow! Enjoy these early days, learn as much as you can and have fun. 🇨🇦

@Momgrowsthechronic, Nope, down here in the US, my state approved indoor grow for medical patients at the top of the year. That's exactly why I want to try to the autos. Mainly worried about light leak in my space, even with blackout curtains and the Apollo tent. So far so good 🤞 I think with heat and light what it is in my area, I should stick to auto's in the summer, and in the fall/winter get the photo's I want in. I've seen people piggyback the two off another and switch the lights to 12/12 after the auto's flower, I think I can manage that.

@Smokin_Joe, auto’s are a lot easier to grow and it’s seed to harvest in just 8-12 weeks (on average). It’s a great way to master growing healthy plants without the worry of switching them over to flower, light when they shouldn’t have light, length of grow, etc. They don’t usually yield as much as a photoperiod grow done right but I’ve come pretty close. And you have the opportunity to grow and sample multiple strains per year! Congrats on ur country going legal, are you in Canada too?

Plant looks good. How’s the smell developing? My SCB started getting a very sweet fruity smell at that stage. Of the 4 varieties I grew in the first run the SCB cured bud has the best smell and flavour.

@RockyRidger, I did... the newest ones were put out by the window since I also have the one tent. So they are no longer in the most humid environment. I guess I can try to rig something up to keep it humid longer. Right now I have 2 in solo cups in soil/coir not doing so hot - they were great until transplant - and 2 in water still that look ok. If I could just keep 1 I'll be happy, so I'll keep at it. 4 more seeds of this in the box too :) Clones are roughly 4 weeks old at this point I believe. Your autos are looking good by the way! Lots of good strains in there!

@Smokin_Joe, No I dont have the space to have a separate veg room for clones. Have a run of autoflowers going in my 4x4 tent(box) right now. Are you keeping the clones in a humid environment? How old are the clones?
Smokin_Joe
Smokin_Joe
@RockyRidger, the smell right now is definitely growing stronger day by day. It's got a heavy/musky sweet scent to it, maybe a slight diesel aroma if you really get in there or like after the last defoliation. It's seems most noticeable before and after watering - maybe only before since I'm carrying her near my face to the tub 😂 Did you get any clones off your run? I've heard she's hard to clone, but I had thought I nailed it anyway; now even the healthiest of the clones are struggling though.

Joe topping can be done anytime but I prefer early into days light cycle. I feel the warmth and light help dry and help heal the cut wound. I won’t mist for two days either. Moisture helps breed infection.

Lovely grow man. Try not to push so much water/feeds through your plant. You are flushing out all the enzymes when you get run-off. No run-off with soil. Unless you are hard flushing and even then it's always recommend to grab a cup and mix it with your new mix to quickly promote good bactria/enzyme production. Good luck bro.
