They both got a little to hot didnt check on them but got 18 inches from the light . I am currently trying to figure out how to get rid of nitrogen toxicity . I flushed 1.5 gallons through both plants and gave epsom salt to the gsc .

Looks to me like nitrogen toxicity. In the early stages at least as I can see your leaf tips are slightly burned. Best bet would be to flush your medium before anything worsens and just start over with some nutrients at less than half strength. Can’t really go wrong doing that. I’d also say switch your light cycle as plants without a dark period are more prone to getting sick and bumping into problems. 18/6 for a little while may help and work wonders for you just until she’s stable again. If you think you’ve over watered all you’d have to do is wait for the medium to be dry before next watering. Hope this helps

They are doing pretty good . I flushed the gsc then let it dry for 3 days , than started using big boom and tiger bloom. Using bottled water for the white widow . Switched my lighting to 16-8.

Still using bottled water and using fox farms schedule. Some leave ends are dying , and some leaves are rusting like. I give some epsom salt to the gsc every 3rd watering . The white widow i have only used water. I cut two of the tops going to let the rest stay for a little bit longer . The biggest one was 44 grams

Found the culprit for my nitrogen toxicity , newbe mistake used tablespoons instead of teaspoons . Hopefully she is makes it , switched my light to 16-8 . Gave her a light dose of tiger bloom . Bought ph and ec meters should be here next week

Looks more like overwatering to me than nitrogen toxicity. I’d suggest trying to water less frequently, they should bounce back nicely. Good luck 👍

Aaaaw man that sucks, hopefully she makes it. I transplanted one of mine on Friday and ended up cutting some roots. I just watered her with nutrients and so far she’s good she even grew more than an inch since Friday.

Thanks for growing our genetics, good luck!! We’re really looking forward to it!! Enjoy Growing Faster.

@Weedys, it depends a lot from: - what medium you're using -the techniques applied -your experience in growing - mere luck. The only indication that we give for the plants is a rough indication starting from M for the smaller/less yielding plants to XXL for the biggest ones . GSC is an XL but you can see from work of several growers that's not a specific indication, for example check out @Hawkbo, if we had to judge by him they all are XXXL.

@Fast_Buds, whats the average yeild of your gsc ?
Weedys
Weedyscommented7 years ago
@Fast_Buds, thanks i have to say she is a strong one. When i transplanted i literally broke the root ball in half and it didnt even phase it . I never transplanted anything or even grown anything before lol

First grows are exciting, but scary! Liked and followed! You appear to be recovering well. I would say, though it's been a while since I used FF or any grow/bloom formula, you probably want to just cut the nitrogen completely. PH meters are a really good idea, can't believe you made it this far without them. Without the buffer of soil, soilless media are prone to problems with ph fluctuation. Glad to see everything's doing well, however! looking forward to the conclusion! Let us know if you have any questions =)
