Hi guys,

I'm coming to the end of my second grow, at least I think. I'm using 2 x Enviro lights in a 80x80 tent and feeding bio bizz nutes.

I'm growing 2 strains which are both meant to finish in 9/11 weeks but i think they're at different stages. I ordered a scope which has still not arrived, being a stoned idiot I didn't check postage time!

When would be best to stop feeding nutes if at all? I'm worried that all of a sudden they'll become prime, and ill wish I flushed sooner. Or on the other hand, starve them two early.

I'd planed to use the tent as the drying room to but if I'm forced to harvest at different times that's gonna be difficult as I need to keep smells down!

Do you think they look far apart?
And how far? Maybe chop at a happy average of the two?

Any help would be highly appreciated Cheers Dudes!

How long have they been flowering? Are those nanners in pic 1 & 3? They appear to need a couple weeks, maybe a bit longer but you'll need to keep an eye in strains like those.

They're in the 8th week now and I'm pretty sure there's no nanners ( I hope ). Unless Im clearly missing it?!? What would you suggest with nutes?
Cheers for the reply mate

Yeah hard to tell if those are nanners or dead leaf tips (the yellow tips poking out the bud).

As far as nutes, doesn't look like it needs more but careful not to starve it. A couple extra waterings in between feeds (do not saturate!) Would help leach the soil without damaging the plant.

Dry & cure is one of THE MOST (aside from genetics) important factors that determine quality potential and should not ever be overlooked and/or bandaid fixed with a flush imo.

Sweet ill stop the nutes now then and just use plain. They still seem to be drinking pretty well atm, is that bad?

Yeah I've done some research and I'm determined to get the cure right! Cause right now they smell good

Thanks for your help!

You dont have to completely stop feeding, especially if they are drinking quickly just be cautious towards the end of flowering (slip a few extra water cycles if needed).


Btw it probably isnt nanners, just looked concerning so i had to ask.2016-12-12_09.53.14.jpg 2016-12-12_09.54.30.jpg

At least 2-3 weeks ... Need more pistil recede , by then you should be able to check triches ....

You can grab a magnifying glass anywhere , no need to wait too long.
Ph water during last weeks 6.0 hydro / 6.5 soil. No need to flush , plant will cannablize its stored nutes then leaves will fade and die. You can also drop your your light schedule to 11/13 or 10/14 to finish plant. CFL grows always run longer than other lights ...

Definitely no nanners guys thanks for checking tho, they would really suck lol.

Okay, I'll tell myself 3 weeks from now and any sooner will be a bonus! Was hoping to smoke them over the holidays but that's not happening

Isn't Biobizz organic? You don't flush organics. You shouldn't flush at all.

It's only recommended to flush synthetics to remove salts from the medium so the smoke isn't harsh. Biobizz is organic. I don't think you should flush.

I've heard the bio bizz isn't actually organic? Hence why its banned from the agricultural industry? Don't know how true this is... Also a close friend that grows uses the bio bizz range and I can always smell/taste the topmax, might just be me! Hopefully Santa might throw a few oz down the chimney!
