    Flush or wait another week to start?

    I reckon. But its drawn what it needed from the fan leaves, which is part of their function. I also reckon that there are worse things than a mild N deficiency when you're almost at harvest. The reason I do this is because in the past where I kept using the bloom its happened that I've gotten...

    Flush or wait another week to start?

    Not exactly... if they are yellowing, then the plant is drawing N out of the leaves. But if the leaves haven't completely died yet, then the plant hasn't used all the N up yet.

    Flush or wait another week to start?

    Yeah, but I don't exactly starve them. To be clear, I just stop adding the nutrients to the water I'm adding to the reservoir. I don't remove the solution that's there, so there's still N in there. The concentration will start dropping, and you'll see some yellowing of the fan leaves after a...

    Flush or wait another week to start?

    Err... nitrogen is not a protein. And I'm not saying to empty the reservoir. Just stop adding nitrogen late flower. Just one opinion...

    Flush or wait another week to start?

    I run my ppm at half that or less. Are your leaf tips burnt? For what it's worth, I run hydro and don't really flush. What I do is to reduce the bloom (the stuff with nitrogen) down to zero from weeks 5-7 or so and just use the bud booster after that. Plants start really drawing less N after...

    Did I setup my carbon filter wrong

    If you're blowing through the filter, then any leaks means smelly air under pressure leaking into the room. If I didn't have room for a filter in the growroom, then I'd rig something up by putting the filter inside a Rubbermaid container or something. Draw air through the filter, exhausing air...

    Advice needed

    Take a look at the roots. Check for dark junk on them / roots turning brown. Also the roots can get really twisty. Root rot. It will kill your plant fast. Leaf/root damage, once there, will not come back. I had it happen to me on my current grow, in a newly made DWC bucket. I had just topped...

    Cloning and reveg dilemma

    I always clone off of flowering plants. 2-3 weeks in (although I have been lazy at times and didn't take the clones until 5-6 weeks. The thing to keep in mind is that it will take a bit longer to root and it will take a while before you see new growth.

    Are there ANY Christians on RIU?

    Catholic here. Don't let the haters get you down. It's my observation that atheists seem to be the biggest religious zealots out there.

    Best Lightng Schedule?

    12/1 worked fine for me. Didn't notice much of a difference from 18/6 except it seemed to show preflowers while still in veg. In flower now, doing fine. I think I'll keep going this way next time.

    How do ya'll check your ph? Meter or solution?

    I stick with the pH test kit and try to make the water pee colored. pH meters, I'm wary of. Especially cheap ones, you can't rely on their accuracy. You need to spend a decent amount of money to get a good pH probe, and then you'll need to get calibration solutions, etc. I considered spending a...

    !!21 hrs of light during flower!!

    Leaving the lights on all day during what normally would be a dark cycle shouldn't be a problem. Where the problems tend to come is when you interrupt the dark cycle with light. One of the tricks I've read about here on RIU is to do exactly what happened to you, leave the lights on for 24...
