Hi mate, looks like a bit of nutrient lockout or something. Could be a lot of reasons but none worth worrying about so close to harvest. Just inspect when you cut her down and do it differently next time. Happy growing...

Transplants acually went pretty bad acually. But in final homes and are starting to rebound. Transplanting does cause a lot of stress and slows growth down. Nts.

First of two auros started flowering stages. Waiting on second. Readjusted grow room to ACCOMMODATE this weeks needs. Giving time for adjustments to final homes since they are auto fem. Worried they may flower to soon without time to veg as I'd like to. But watch and its GUUD!

Trimmed the bottom fan leaves and the top ones blocking flowering locations. But doing so lightly and slow. Last grow caused lack of Ng during last of havest/flower stages. Keep more this grow. But looking forward to a great grow!

Same every thing. Same pot size, same lighting, time, space, and amount. The only variable is the not flowering yet one had a harder transplant. Been 2wks. Could be stress or no? Ill wait of course. Hopefully gud grow!

Usually the same genetics should behave much in the same way, you’re right about that. Even with the “hard” transplant , it should recover much in the same time. What I suggest is try to use molasses or flowering nutrients to try “trigger” flowering. If that doesn’t work maybe you even have unstable genetics , you can try to do a 12/12 light schedule , in case it’s not an auto (happens often actually when the breeder makes a mistake) . Hopefully some patience will work, but it looks like you maybe got unlucky actually. Just call the breeder when you’re absolutely sure and show him the diary usually they will do something that’s fair for you. hope this helps ! 🚀

it's because your NPK ratios were off, when you added the flowering nutes it triggered flowering, but you're still not there yet. See the dark green , shiny leafs? that means too much N, try just adding additives, then switch to only flowering nutes. in the future you're better off with a lot less feeding, i dont even feed for the first 3-4 weeks, then a bit before you want to flower start direct with flowering nutrients. hope this helps ! 🚀

Hi fella, they are looking good, are you worried about "drying" one while the other plant is still maturing? They way I dry is in a cardboard box, (BCN power plant diary shows how I do it, but I guess everyone is different! If smell is a issue you can always connect some ducting to the box with the other end in your passive intake on the tent, hope this helps happy growing 👍

My NPK was still in need or at fault for my auto/fems. Not sure exactly? I see how drk green the 2nd plant was. Now lets act like Im not a newbie, and you a Grandmaster. Lol NPK is for NG, Potassium, and K...? And I check it thru soils PH, but again any insite?

Organomananswered grow question 4 years ago
pH will not tell you about N/P/K levels in the substrate, this can only be done through a laboratory specializing in soil analysis. N = Nitrogen P = Phosphorous K = Potassium These are the three "major" nutrients required for plant growth. "Minor" nutrients are things like Calcium, Sulphur, Magnesium. Trace elements, which are essential for plant health, but needed in only tiny amounts, include Copper, Iron, Manganese, Zinc, Boron, Chlorine and Molybdenum. pH is a measurement of soil/substrate acidity or alkalinity. Less than 7.0 is acidic and over 7.0 is alkaline. pH effects nutrient assimilation/availability to the plant. Nutrient "lock out" in the true sense happens below 5.5 and above 7.5. Judging the amount of N/P/K in your soil/substrate can only really be determined by the "visual health" of your plants and is only obvious when one of these nutrients is either too high or too low. Unfortunately, once it is too high or too low and by the time it shows up in your plants appearance, it is usually too late as the symptoms of high or low nutrients can take a few days/weeks to show up in the plants leaves. If your plant is growing "normally", then you soil/substrate is "in the zone" for plant health, but getting a precise N/P/K reading is not something that can be done at home by the average cultivator. Hope this helps,......... Organoman.

*First, removed monocome seed plants that were most likely males from grow room, focusing all light and space too my for sure laidies! Hate that 2 beautiful and heathy plants have to be just discarded. But focus the remaining grow to the Auto/Fems that will for sure yield flowers! *2nd, trimmed and defoliated my girls. Besides autoing a month apart, they look to be a great yield of spirituality! Its GUUDD!

Hey friend , its a pain , around juli my garden also gets taken over by these nothing worked EXCEPT 1 THING , go to you local gardening store and ask for a SPINOSAD product that is safe for fruits , spray the leaves for 5 days straight , you wont kill them all but you will have time to finish your crop , spinosad is safe bud just to be sure dont get them on your buds

So my first girl is days maybe a,week away from pistols, & tricomes being in harvest window. I know 85-90% pistol is what im looking for, but what if its a few days/aweek early? THC will not be at most, but can curing make up? I ask because last batch was too dry,(temp, and cold too blame) so will I get a more moist drying or just wait till pistols/tricomes are were I think would be better? Thoughts?

It doesn't look quite ready just yet. Unfortunately the plant does look like it has suffered from stress in its life but the pistols still look mostly white to me and the ones that are brown are still quite erected. Personally I would hold off another week and wait for the pistols to brown and retract/curl down or for a sure way zoom in on the thricombs they want to be milky not clear if some are still transparent hold on a little longer. As for the drying I use 2 methods • a full plant hang for 10-14 days with temperature at 17-19°c with a RH of 50% for the first 3 days then I drop the temperature to 14-16°c and increase the RH to 55/60% •Drying rack so I wet trim the buds and leave them in a rack we're the area is dark and a temperature of 17°c and 55% rh at a constant When they are try enough I put them in jars (still don't smoke yet) and allow them to cure for arround 2 weeks burping the jar x4 a day. Its after the 14 day mark I start to notice the aroma of the plants and no longer get the fresh grass/earthy smell

Upon further detailed inspection of pistols and tricomes and you alls insight, decided she needs another week at least. Hard to wait, but know its worth it! Going to flush once more before havest, to try for a cleaner smoke. Wish me luck "growmies"! 😀

This being #3 plant of Purple hulk auto/fem, it was completely different! Not only did it flower a month after sis, but has shown red/purp stems, and this white bud mass that i can only hope is ready as the Tricoms pistols and other reg green buds. Because have to harvest tonight, or tomorrow due to all the aspects (tricomes, pistals, and green buds ready now)! Please see all above pics.. any insight on the white? Is that normal for dif strains, or a deficient? HELP!
