600W HPS, 9x various strains, soil

Hello,

First thing: sorry for my English, will try to do best.
I would like to share with you my first indoor grow.

What do I have is:

Light: Sylvania Grolux 600w + reflector Hammer V + GIB PRO-V-T 600w
Soil: 2x Biobizz light mix 50l, 9x 11 litres flowerpots
Fertilizer: 1L BioGrow,1L BioBloom,0,5L TopMax,250ml Rootjiuce,250ml BioHeaven

My grow room is open 24/7 right now so I don't need anything else than one average ventilator for 'airblow'.
After switching to flower I need to change it, still thinking about it.


Genetics: 3x White Widow, 3x Northern Lights ( by Homegrown Fantaseeds, feminized) 3x Magus Genetics mix - could be: Exile, Motavation and Double Dutch.



Germination took together 4 days with 100% success 9 / 9



~ 21 days after germination X 16 days under lamp



~ 27 days after germination X 22 days under lamp




Additional info: I don't trim flowers, don't use PH or EC meter and only have an analog thermometer.


Last week I was very mad with fertilization. So some leaves are little burned. I decided to flush it with lot of water, then wait 4 days, then flush it again with ~ 1.5L of water each one. Now I will be waiting next 3 days and will use fertilizer again with minimum amount/ratio to water.


My average temperature under lamp is 28C/ 82.4F when lamp is turned off ~ 24C / 75.2F

Nice looking grow my man! I have the motavation strain... It's anything but Motivating!!!! I don't smoke that until I know I don't want to do anything!!!

Thank you.


Cold somebody confirm that my problem is really a nutrient burn? Especially pic #1 and #4



Thanks in advance

Good luck with your grow. Sorry I can't help with your problem, I'm just starting myself

It is nt nute burn mate as you d c it on the tips !!

Nope its not nute burn...as cheddar1985 said...nute burn will generally start at the bottom of the plant and also start at the tips. It looks like that coul;d be either a nutrient deficiency or nutrient lock out!
Im gonna guess and say its lockout being that you do not use a ph/ec meter meaning you dont ph your water. If your PH isnt within range you are blocking the main nutrients from getting to your plants roots.
Having your ph between 6.5 -7.0 (for soil) will allow your plants to uptake all the nutes it needs. My best advice to you is invest in a ph/ec meter itll make your life a LOT easier.
What kind of water are you using? Tap? or RO? If using Tap...make sure you let the water sit out 24-48 hours before giving it to your plants...you need to let the chlorine evaporate.

P.S Also to be safe i would flush plants for a full week (5-7 days) and then start feeding them nutes at 1/4 strength then gradually add more every week or two.

Case closed!
Happy Growing!

Thanks. I'm using water from water well. Water should be OK, but has little bit more iron.

Maybe you are right about PH, but this started to happen, when I created too strong mixture of water and fertilizer. Before this everything was good.

That is just a very small burn, don't worry about it too much! And don't look for improvements to that leaf, once damaged will remain damaged...keep eyes on new growth
Just feed straight water for a couple of feedings then start slowly back on nutes. I generally aim for 1/4 - 1/3 of the recommended dose - can always add more but can't undo too much!

Research nute burn...its not a burn. I understand that...but you also have to realize that when you add nutrients to your water it changes the value of your PH...So even kno this problem didnt occur untill after you added nutes...it can still easily be nutrient deficiency or nute lockout!
Research nute lockout and nute deficiencies.....and then i think youll be a little more informed on how to read your plants....whatever it is....it is agreed you need to buy a ph/ec meter and flush for a few days and then start nutes really small 1/4 strength.! let us know on the progress

I don't sweat nute burn too much. You have to burn them to find out what the upper limit is and stay just under that. Once or twice with the flush is plenty and then back to somewhere between where you were and when you burned them. If you didn't just nuke them, and it does not appear that way then you're fine. no guts no glory. fertilizer is your friend

I think its none of the above, actually. Do you ever foliar feed or mist your plants with water or splash your water a little big when you water them// it looks like you may have splashed them or if you sprayed them ever with anything it was burnt by the light or the concentration of ferts in the water on that small area of the leaf.

I checked carefuly every leaf last few days and it seems, it stopped expanding.
If new problem occurs i'm going to buy PH and EC.

Before this problem I was also raising humidity by spraying clean water directly on the flowers. But the most affected leafs are those, which were hidden from direct light. And some of them were very young.

I also put lamp higher than before and stoped spraying clean water on flowers.

Will keep you updated. Thanks for watching.

bump!

month old / ~ 26 days under the lamp, still in veg

Problems:
Bright green / yellow tips on the top. Especially on WW. It's not dried, just different color.







I wanted to buy PH+EC meter but i'm out of money right now, going to buy asap.

Edit: Today, I discovered on some flowers something, which I believe is female preflowers. Hoping all will be girls.

I'm also going to follow this paper:

I used BioHeaven only once yet. I'm going to mix it with BioGrow. Hoping for fix.

Bump!



Upgraded fan, no heat problems anymore.
Switched to 12/12 after ~ 35 days in veg.

It seems i have a male. Could someone confirm this? Sorry for photo quality.

ifyou have a male collect that pollen and give me some

Unfortunately it is a male. I had some when I fucked around with bagseeds, that's how they looked. I wish I'm wrong, let's hear someone else too

Actually I'm glad it's male. I will save pollen for later usage. Plus I have more light for other flowers.

Anyway I think homegrown fantaseeds don't have their genetics stabilized too much. I see lot of genetics mutations on my 3 Northern Light plants I have from them plus one plant appears to be pure male despite the fact it should be feminized.
Their 3 White Widows are doing quite well.

But I'm really excited about Magus genetics. I have three really nice females from them.

Another male detected. Again Northern Lights.

I'm not too lucky. 7 Flowers remaining.
