Week Six Day 1

WASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSUP my grow hommies!

I digress, ok here are some pics of day 1 of week 6.

MASSIVE yellowing on all sun leaves.

ALL the lower ones have died off.

Cola's have ridiculous crystals....and look beautiful.


Is this just the "CIRCLE OF LIFE" ?


Here's the specs:

2x600W HPS Lights
Sensi A/B Grow/Bloom
About 63 degrees F ALL the time.
About 60% humidity ALL the time.
I added 10ML of CalMag to my feeding and 5 ML of Hydrozene.
I let my water sit for about 3-4 days before adding nutes to remove Chlorine/Florine

Otherwise i starve the poor ladies, i leave them to dry out and then i fatten them up with some yummy solutions.

However i have a few Q's....


The density of these buds kinda blows IMO.... did i fuck up?

Granted there is another 20 days to go, but i'd assume they get no bigger and just more crystallized.

This is not my first rodeo.

I'm gonna check for a PH lock out, today.

Last week i found runoff to be 6.3.

I changed it to 6.5.

I also made sure all solutions to the feed were 7.0 to try and keep things a bit higher PH for BUD production.

UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH IDK what else you need... i grow in soil, should be good stuff Fox Farm Ocean something.........

BTW, I'm a hydro grower so I'm quite stupid when it comes to soil....

I added a pic of my clones for anybody following my posts.

I appreciate any advice, hate and love.

Thanks,

That looks like ovefeeding, along with PH issues, more than natural fading. Burnt and clawing leaves. Feed at 6.5ph. I don't ever check PH in soil, shouldn't be necessary. Good soil self buffers. What EC are you feeding at? Do you alternate feeding and watering? How often do you water to get runoff?

OVERFEEDING!?!!

That's fucked, cuz i only feed them 1x a week and have been neglecting bloom A as it has like 12% nitrogen in it.

Are you def feeling the buds have something wrong with them?

I mean they should be fatter right?

I feed 1x per week, PH'ed at a perfect 6.5. I also feed them just natural water PH'ed at 6.8 usually 3 days after watering to get them through to their next feeding date. So maybe 2x watering a week.

What EC are you feeding at? They still need N during flower.

First off, I'm not opening your picture files - they're to big......Reduce the pic quality so the files are at about 1K..

Still, they look like classic over use of P&K and low micro's, the plant is doing much of that from not running enough N and micro defs.

With P&K at around 6%, your N should be around 3-4%. That's strain dependent....

A bloom N value of 12%??? While that does seem high.....I gotta ask....Whats the P&K values at? Getting any N from the B part?

You also have micro problems....(low)......Bet the micro's are in that A part......

What nutrient line is that anyway?

Your loosing more then you think - yield/quality wise. If you were doing it "right", those plants would shock you.....plants are like computers.....garbage in - garbage out...They try hard but, without what they need to do the best job.....You only get what it can do.....Growing for potentials is the goal of all wise growers.....

lol, i didn't know we were working off 56k modems lmao...


I'm not changing the picture quality.....5mb is small enough thanks for yer input though....

As far as the nutrients, there is nothing else, in Sensi A bloom....just nitrogen.


Thanks.

Well, im gonna just rock em out for the next 3 weeks.... following the charts.....

Personally i think you all are wrong and the plants are just fine this is just a cycle of yellowing before harvest. Well i hope lol.

The the crystals are magnificent and the bud leaves are green as grass.

I just want them to bulk up a bit more!

Any skills ?!?! i'm looking for a pot doctor... I'm a hydro specialist i cant diagnose this, because i base my diagnosis on PH lvls and NPK PPM.....

Runoff i said was about 6.5......

That should be tits for the weed chart:



Fuck these plants!

My headband better be more versatile!

BTW yer not reading the post unless you start the song....

Your plants look great, just need to figure out the right feeding dosage next time is all. 10ml of cal mag might be a little much with only 3 weeks to go. Maybe nutrients ph'd to 6.3 might be the way to go also.
The part you said about having 50 strippers on your payroll and rob having 1 on his might be true though. Oh well, right? Its your life....... Good growing though dude you got a couple monsters in there!!!!
