Busto is exactly right, it's fine. You want to flush & only give plants straight water for the last week. You want to get all the nutes out of the plant & during this time the plant will feed on itself. It starts w/ the fan leaves & they turn yellow & fall off. That's exactly what is supposed to happen.

You should also be keeping your humidity as low as possible & keep an eye on your buds & make sure you don't get any problems w/ mold or rot.

nah, ur SourD looks legit. Yellowing leaves, as said, are a nitrogen deficiency which is fine during the latter end of ur plants life cycle. You should shoot for a lower humidity, IMO something between 25% and 35%. Sometimes that's a real hard mark to hit but it seems to be ideal for the plants flowering cycle and resin production.

have 8 sour diesel clones I vegged them for about 4 weeks (bought them as clones on Aug 9th 2008 put them in 5 gal. pots. they are under 1000w hps for 12 light and 12 dark. i water them every other day i use about 4-5 gallons of water and disperse the 4 gallons evenly through the 8 plants. i used foxfarm oceans forest with worm castings mixed soil. I used foxfarm nutes: big bloom, & tiger bloom, i started using nutes 6 days into flowering, because i wanted to flush, i did use a small dosage of grow big in the begining but since its my first time i didnt want to overdose the nutes. they are in a 5ft x 5ft x 6ft 7in grow hut with reflective foiling (not white walls). Temp is constantly 73F TO 77F during light hours and dark hours goes to about 64-60F (ac unit), pH is always 6.5-6.2. Any tip/hints would be very helpful! i have osculating fans and two 6in. inline exhaust (YOU CAN ONLY SEE 1 INLINE IN THE PICS) the other inline is attached to the other end of the duct spitting the hot air out of the window. inline exhaust fans and a carbon filter. WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK SO FAR??? ANY TIPS OR HINT WOULD HELP ALOT! IM A 1ST TIMER. anything you would do different? ps. THEY are really STINKY! already


They are about 32-34in tall. is that normal??

NUTES DOSES I USED:
Nute dosses: tiger bloom=1/4 tsp/gal
Big Bloom=1-2 tbs/gal

i have since stopped using fox farm nutes , ever since i bought advanced nutes 2 weeks ago.

*I ALWAYS USED NUTES WITH EVERY WATERING, I FLUSHED A GALLON FOR EVERY POT about 2 weeks ago. BOUGHT SOME ADVANCED NUTRIENTS SENSI A AND B, AND BIG BUD, I WAS TOLD I SHOULD FLUSH THE FOX FARM GARBAGE NUTES, BEFORE I APPLY THE ADV. NUTES.

*I HAVE NEVER CHECKED MY PPM...IS THAT NOT SMART?

HOW MUCH LONGER FLOWERING DO YOU THINK??? THEY FEEL SUPER DENSE AND FAT!!! LOTS OF RAPID GROWTH, I CANT BELIEVE IT....

FOR MY NEXT GROW IM THINKING IM GOING TO DO GDP ? ??? AND ADD A 400WHPS

im using 2 1K hps for flower, but what I want to know is how tall they were b4 you went to flower, and how tall they ended up once you harvest, a month after rooting will be quite tall I imagine, at least 12" at a month after rooting?

what temp does that bud dryer go 2? if it goes past 29c it is only good 4 a quick dry, if it's lower it can actually take care of the curing process for you

well sour d usually takes 10-12 wks 2 flower so u have atleast 2 1/2 3wks but i'd get atleast a 30x magnifyer so u can hand pick exactly what kind of high u want

4 a sativa dominant plant it looks like ur gonna gonna pull at least 2 1/2 oz of each plant!
hope that helped a little

peace
