I would buy the jorge cervantes bible... dude , the amount of info in there is ssssooooooo muuccchhh lol

I would never buy any of this guys books or videos. Sure he is famous and all. And maybe he knows how to grow weed. But his video on how to make Bubble Hash is a joke. He over adjitates his weed WAY THE FUCK TO MUCH. So when I saw that video I figure the guy is a moron in everything, and i do not even bother reading or watching anything he has to say now.

He uses a mixer with both blads set on high for 15-20 minutes. When you should use only one blade set on low for 15 minutes. I wonder ho9w much hash this guy has costed people

Now maybe I am being to Harsh on the guy. Maybe someone in here can change my view on him. But I think he is all show and no grow.

Lunesta, You need to give more info, and not only show close ups of your plants, but also wide shots. At first i was thinking you were using R/O water which filters out the trace minerals. This was with out seeing the photos. But the photos do not look like iron/cal/mag DEF.. The photos look like you have either Hot Spots on the lights, you are misting the plants with the lights on, you are splashing nuts on the leafs. Or the plants are getting to close to the lights. With out more info, and better photos. You are only going to get Guess's. I do not think it is a Def. It is only happening to a couple of leafs. You need to tell us temp, PPM, PH. Give us INFORMATION. Help us Help YOU>>>>>
Ok, My ppm are at 1700, and temp at Low 80's, water temp 72-74, and PH obiously too low but varies between 6.0-7.0 after checking. does this make sense, and be the reason for the plants looking like this???

HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!! I grow great buds and hardly ever get my PPMS above 1100


Try this maybe. Flush the plants, and then add nuts at 800 PPM for 1 week and see what happens.


Why do noobie growers always try to push the envelope on PPMs?

Here is how i grow a crop when it is a new strain for me.
I Very, very slowly raise the PPM. 600,750,850 what ever. Once I get up to about 900 I start watching very closely the change in PPM from when I first mix the soup. So if I mix a batch at lets say 900PPM, and 2 days later it is 875 PPM, I know I can raise the PPM next time. But it I make a batch at 1,100 PPM and 2 days later it is 1,350 I know to slow down. Then I adjust in with the apperance of the plant itself. I like to mix my soup to where it stays levbel on the PPM and PH. If you have to much Nuts in the water, the PPM will increase. If you do not have enough it will decrease. If I am wrong in this therory, someone speak up. It has been working great for me. I have some freaky sugar buds right now.

So, is it tooo Potent? Should I water down my nutes? Or what? Please, Advise.....:mrgreen: So do our plants Look Ok, Or what???
If you are on your first few crops those plants look great. But they are not all that great if you are a vetrian grower. This is what I am saying. Grwong a weed plant is very, very easy. Getting that plant to produce good buds is very, very hard. It is easier with time though. I am just telling you what I would do if they were my plants. You need to do with them what you will. Because I already know you will anyway. I have tried to help people grow in person. You tell them what to do, and they do something else. So I have told you what I think, now you need to figure out what you are goiing to do. You are the one in control.

This is our second grow.... I guess the first was beginers luck...(Shishkaberry in gallery)

Looks like a over nuting problem shown here, mixed with a PH fluctuation problem (shown below)....


Also, it could be Potasium deficiency due to too much salt in the soil from unused nutes. I would suggest a really good flush and a Potasium rich nutrient solution around 800-1000 total PPM's with about half of that Potasium rich

Ok, we have flushed 3 of the 5 veg, and the PH coming out is 6.5-7.0,

I will update with the PH of the Flowering ladies...

to be honest, that looks more like a magnesium defecency, it starts in the center, inbetween the veins, and works its way out to the edge. from the bottom pic, and the top one is another plant?

Sorry Lunesta, It's a bad habbit, I don't know a lot of women that smoke so I'm so used to saying "him" all the time. By thr way , If that is the only area u are having problems is what u showed at the beginning, u will be fine!

My water runs in the 700+ ppm so should i keep the overall ppm at 800ppm :peace:
You would take the PPM of your Nut Mix and subtract the original PPM of the water. I highly doubt you have a magnesium DEF. if you water has a PPM of 700. Magnesium is one of the trace minerals in Regular tap water. But then again no telling. I always use R/O water and then add CalMag.

Ok , so today we started flushing the flowering ladies and the PH of the water draining out is at about 6.0... Also I ordered a new Hanna PH TDS EC meter(Black handheld with probe)...Hopfully this will help.
Buds on the plants seem to be filling out, just not as quick as the last batch. I also heard that White Widow is kinda hard to grow for beginners??? Any suggestions on easy growing strains, that are as good as the WW???

I think our plants are going to need to be pulled soon.... The buds are turning kinda red, and ready to harvest.... We'll give em about a week more of flushing to take out any Nute taste left behind. The buds did not get big... but we got good quantity, i think...

Now we have to turn the 5 other vegging ladies into BUDDING beauties...
