fixing nute lockout
BDar_medicinestarted grow question 4 years ago
Looks like my harelquin and dance world plants have nut lockout due to low ph. I have been using liquid dolimite lime for the past 4 days. The symptoms are not getting better. The cheap ph meter indicates a ph of 5. What's the best way to fix this?

Flush flush flush. Damage is done and leaves won't recover. But can stop it from spreading further. Use proper ph water till desired ph is in run off. Replacing any nutrition along the way. Always have a 20 percent run off and test ph of end part of run off. The run off washes salts out of soil which will spike your ph down if they build up. Chemicals used to grow leave salts behind. So have to keep pushing the old out when you add new. Good luck and happy growing
Stonerdanswered grow question 4 years ago
The dolomite lime is a good option for raising the pH levels and if it doesn't help then increase the amount by 20% until good results show!
You can also try adding baking soda to your solution to increase the pH!
A Calcium/Magnesium additive may also help in increasing the pH levels of your solution and soil!
Don't forget to water with at least 20-30% runoff and check the runoffs' salinity (EC) and pH levels to determine your soil condition!
And what your plant is suffering from is most likely Phosphorous (P) and some light Potassium (K) deficiencies! probably due to the acidic soil/solution so fix that and stay with your current dosage, if the problem persists after fixing the pH then increase your PK additives (usually the bloom/flower fertilizers)
Hope this helps! Good luck and happy growing :)

Is My Critical AUTO a Photoperiod Strain?I have 3 auto strains, 2x Thunderfuck and 1x Critical. The Thunderfuck plants bloomed normally and have been harvested. The Critical, except for a few light pre-flowers on one stem, hasn't bloomed. I suspect it might be a photoperiod. Should I put it in the tent at 12/12 or 18/6?

When to harvest?Beginner question:
Would you say this is ready to harvest soon or should I wait some more? Leaves turning autumn colors, 3/4 of pistils turned orange.
Trichomes look rather clear, but some on the head bud are amber already.
RQS says 8-9 weeks. Starting week 9 soon.

Missing strain from HSB breederHi,
I'd like to start a diary with "Strawberry Banana Auto" strain from "High Speed Buds" breeder. HSB is referenced as a breeder but this particular strain isn't. I tried to ask gently to support to add it by mail and with the direct contact form, but no answer so far so ???

I got to harvest in 14 days: in order to have enough time to cure it before leaving home for 2 weeks (safety first: is a period of floods in here, I just can't take the risk). I had a pretty long vegetative stage but I'm gonna finish it at 13 weeks. Am I gonna ruin it it, right?

What do you guys think?It's my first grow (automatic, 6 weeks old) and compared to other plants, my plant looks a bit small/ridiculous. I give her 24/7 light (I read that on guides) is that maybe too much? What's your impression of her? I use two growlights (one from above and one from the side).
