Monday, day 71 - start of week 11. She has taken well to the defoliation although I have to admit I have seen and expected a faster recovery. The worms I put seem to have setted i nicely, they left the castings that they were put in and have dispersed around the pot working hard. The fan that I had broke so she has been without a fan for the last 4 days, new air circulation fan installed today. I am hoping for an uneventful week, hopefully she'll need a watering again so that I can add some aloe/malt barley poweder (has been 10 days since last watering). ---- Saturday day 76 - 15 days since last water but decided to water anyways since I want to fight the fungus gnats. Mixed some malt barley powder (contains chtinase which should kill those buggers) with 2 litres of water, added the nematodes (they fight the fungus gnat larvae, got them off amazon) and drenched the soil. Mixed another 2 litres with aloe vera powder and neem oil, and drenched/foliar sprayed the plants with this. Got some run off. Replaced stickies --- Sunday day 77 She is looking really well. Nice thick pistils growing on the flowers but not really stretching. Wonder if it has to do with the sulphur excess.

Grow Questions

herbalistsswordstarted grow question 4 years ago
Started seeing burning around the edges of leaves after foliar with aloe vera. have my own mixed soil with palm ash, bat guano, rock dust, chicken manure and epsom salts. I added some ecothrive life-cycle 3 weeks ago. Is it nutrient burnt? Shall I do anything? Or wait it out?
Solved
Leaves. Edges burnt

Light burn or stress is yellowing of leaves and is progressively across canopy toward center of plants. If edges are crispy it is nutrition burn. I looked at wrong numbers earlier. But light is still to close for my preference. In flowering it would be ideal. Maybe still a little close. Do you have run off each watering? If not chemicals will build up in soil causing all kinds of problems from ph to nutrient burn. Good luck. 🌲🌲🌲👊

Dude! This looks awesome. My first grow about to complete started before I knew much about living soil... Already set up my next containers in a similar fashion to what you've got going. Looking forward to seeing your progress... I attended a cannabis cultivation seminar last weekend, Kevin Jodrey shared research that sold me .... Here's a few notes I jotted down! - "Living soil destroys other growing methods in cannabanoids, terpene, flavanoid levels, and secondary metabolite production.(essentially vaster and more diverse expressions of cannabinoid profiles, not necessarily potency) " - "Outdoors in living soil, abiotic factors (wind, rain, temp, humidity) force the plant to perform. With indoor Living soil, biological activity in a contained area is the stressor that forces the plant to perform" - "higher THC USUALLY means lower terpene production Anyway, living soil just excites me, so even if one of these tips causes a spark in your brain in a positive way, then I am happy! - GreenGrows :D

@@GreenGrows, thanks for dropping by and your comments! Very good to know, That is music to my ears! Maybe one day it'll be legal in the UK and I won't be paranoid about attending a seminar about it! I forgot to mention, I also stole a few red earth worms from a wormery my son keeps for feeding his Newt. This pot was an experiment, I am already plotting/preparing for the next one, here is what I bought already which I think is what I am adding to used biobizz lightmix soil, aiming for 220L which I will put in 4 55L pots: Willy worms worm castings compost 30L - apparently lots of good in here Canna coco coir 30L - more aeration Pumice 30L - even more aeration Ecothrive life-cycle - seemed to be a cheaper and pre-mixed option for super soil, I am lazy 1.5L Chicken manure Bought some companion plants: Alfala, Clover (white and red) Basil Chamomile Once my current grow is finished, I'll start on mixing those things, potting and waiting for companion plants to show then I''ll add some worms in here too :) why not Thanks again for your input and looking forward to watching you grows, there is so much to learn

So those burns marks look like sulfur excess. Must have given too much epsom salt a couple of weeks ago. Watered he yesterday till run off. 3 litres
