Purp Kush n Alpha FLOWER

Wow you've got a good grow going on. the problems with the leaves could be a number of things, looks like it might have been some sort of deficiancy, but if the leaf becomes more than 50% damaged it's ok to remove it, and if it's insect related atleast your removing the leaf thats infested and slowing the rate at which they multiply and move on to other parts of the plant. Awsome grow bro.

thanks OG!! i havnt had much action on this so i always wonder what to think. thats what im gunna do . all the really bad ones ill remove. and ill drain the resevoirs too. and replenish with the new nute mixes. i do need to cuz thatll help with the addtiion of new nutes at different stages. ill drain and replenish in the next couple days. i went and picked up kool bloom dry mix too today. so ill need to add all that stuff.

does anyone no why the nute schedule says not to use the diamond nectar in the flowering stage. the guys at the grow shop said to use it through the entire grow. but after i saw that i was like naw never mind. also. i was wondering why cant you mix all the nutes your gunna add together and then dump it into the water then ph. i know stinkbud said that he mixes all his in a gallon jug before he puts it in the water. anyone no why??

No problem, if you mix nutes in 1 gallon of water thats fine, but if you mix nutes without diluting the nutes they can cancel each other out and and not be the strength you intended for, is always good to mix them in water then refill. I haven't used diamond nectar but i have thought about and i think i might use it for my veg cycle to get better roots, i think thats what it's for right ? I use the liquid kool bloom it's not as strong 0-10-10, but I apply it heavy during the 6th and 7th week of flowering.

http://www.gchydro.com/faq_nut.asp Check the link out scroll down to the part that says How can I tell what nutrient deficiencies or excesses my plants are suffering from? the whole article is very informative.

Have you flushed??

it looks like nutrient burn to me, but it could be alot of things. it does look like a magnesium deficieny too.

this is what i would do....as jcd says, flush first. so if it is nute burn, this will be taken care of. also if it is a deficiency it can be caused from a lockout of a nutrient caused by an excess of another nutrient. i am not saying that this is what has happened, but flushing kind of kill two birds with one stone in trying to fix a plant problem like this. then either lessen your nutes for a little bit and see if that works or take your route and supplement magnesium or calcium to see if that helps. calcium is a rare deficiency so i would try that last. good luck.



also, good job on your grow. those buds look delicious. you should look at jigfresh's grow journals, he has some purple kush that looked just like that and turned out great. you will have some top notch bud in your hands soon.

Awsome guys thanks a lot for the imput you'll be amazed when I tell you that I took my tds meter n checked some of the buckets n resevoirs. N wow. Most were n the 3000's n some up tp 4600. I couldnt believe it.

So I wasn't able to get to all of them before the light
turned off but I did get my 18 gal res done. I sucked It
down all the way till my 396 pump wouldn't any more.
Then I made 5 gallons with a 3 gallon mix of 5 ml micro
10 bloom 5 florolicious n 5ml of kool bloom. That ended up bein 780 ppm. Then I made a bucket of straight ph'ed water n added that. Ill try n get to the othe 7 buckets tonight. Just wish I had a better pump that I could use a hose on for the input istead of the submersibles

Good to hear you found your prob.

so its been a looong day. i moved all 7 buckets drained and rinsed out. and filled all back up with a mix of 5 gallons with 15 ml micro 30 bloom 15 florolicious 15 kool bloom. and that was around 750-850 ppm. phed to 5.5-6.0 im glad its over it was hell . al the plants were fallin everywhere and all that. next time im just gunna stick the pump in there n not moved nothing. im gunna have to figure somethin out cuz next gro id like to have a trellis so i have no more worries of tippin n crap. so heres some pics of 3 of the best 7 plants i moved the rest were all lanky n fally overy. lol and after i was done.

one of the buckets had a ppm of 6670 . the rest werent lower then 3000. as bad as that is im surprised i didnt have more problems . but i bet thats why they stopped growin lol.

also i have some questions about my Next Grow in my sig if anyone can shoot over there an take a look. thanks . involves thrips.

Looks like some sticky icky

my dogs names Jake n hell be two this comin halloween! fuck how time flys

If all those buckets are too much hassle maybe you should consider a flood and drain or an ebb and grow system or any that system shares the same reservoir,the only negative side is you need to grow 1 strain at a time or strains that have similar flowering period.Well good growing peace ll

Yea I have been thinkin bout that. This is a brand new set up tho I no it has kinks. Maybe I can get it runnin ok for a lil bit while I redesign.

scribed....

Cool man!

So I havnt done nothin else since I changed the res' I'm gunna check levels today an maybe add phed water. If the ppms r really low like 500 or so ill add the same mix I did at the change.

Let u guys no how much they drank.

So. They havnt drank more then 3 inches. N ppms were round 900 so I just added phed water wit a 1/8th teaspoon n the 5 gallons. Just wanted to give em a touch. Filled the 18 gal with 5 gallons n used another bucket for the other 7 buckets. Was able to fill em all with the 1 full bucket. I think wed I'm gunna suck out n change the mix in em all. So I can use the dry koolbloom.

Sounds like everything is on track

ok just thoughtd id throw in some new pics of my girls from yesterday. about a week an half before i cut. plannin on cutting before i leave for a trip so i may have to cut a lil early like im thinking Sept first will b my cut down date.
