Newbie here looking for any and all advice

[Terrence martin]

Hey all very new to the growing scene!! I have a couple questions for all the veterans and newcomers alike!!! Started grow on may 27th 2015. ( germinated) planted on June 3 2015 I have attached some photos here p!! The question is now I am into the flowering stage 2 weeks and four days going into the third week noticed some yellowing and browning!! Did some research looked a little like nitrogen toxicity! I hope you guys can help a fellow out

It could be high in N. What are you feeding it? Are you checking the run off after you water?

 

[Terrence martin]

I'm feeding it fox farm the three line ups tiger bloom big bloom and grow big

 

[Budzbuddha]

Are going by the feed schedule ? during the flowering stages a reduction in nitrogen is done as bloom stages require more phosphorus. Cut the GROW BIG by half.

If you start to see more burning , do a flush to cut the nutes in soil , then wait to start the bloom nute feeding on schedule but at 1/2 strength.

 

[Terrence martin]

Yeah I gave them a nice flush on Friday was going to cut the N in half and go with the original dose of the other two!! Or do you think I should water with regular water and waitt a couple of more days to add nutes?

 

[Budzbuddha]

This nute line salts up quickly and flushing keeps the potential of lockout and other issues down. I use these nutes and have found BEFORE switching from VEG to FLOWER , I flush to cut down on nute buildup.

Oh ok thanks alot budz! So I flushed Friday do you think it would be ok to give her a light dosage of nutes?

Yeah I gave them a nice flush on Friday was going to cut the N in half and go with the original dose of the other two!! Or do you think I should water with regular water and waitt a couple of more days to add nutes?

Yeah a few days after flush , allow it to dry to the point of accepting a " watering " but start back on feeding. Less is always more , with these nutes.

I use MODIFIED feeding schedules that use slightly different combinations of their TRIO line , which my girls tend to weather better.

Man you are a lifesaver!! Here I was thinking I've harmed my little baby!! Anymore advice? Any and all is accepted

This is a portion ( of one of the Modded Feedings ) which you can use and will help you.

At the beginning of week 6 I give them a half dose of grow big. ( 1/2 only )- nothing else.

At the beginning of week 7 I give them a quarter dose of Tiger Bloom, full dose of Big Bloom and 1 tblsp of blackstrap molasses. ( grandmas unsulphered / get at market )

Week 8 - Half dose tiger bloom, full dose Big Bloom, 1 tblsp BSM ( molasses )

Week 9 - 2 TBLS BSM ( molasses only )

Week 10 - FLUSH FLUSH FLUSH!
Check triches for harvest time.

This works well then going strictly by manufactures suggestions , I learned the hard way that nute maker schedules don't always fit ALL STRAINS. this method is damn near full proof.

 

[Terrence martin]

Alright man!! I will follow that schedule to the t!! I will keep you updated with week by week pics! Also just out of curiosity! Since this is my 1st grow do you think that she is looking ok heading into her 3rd week of flowering?

 

[Budzbuddha]

Yes , they are looking pretty good . Just stay the course and harvest !
What is the strain ?

Side Note : being sativa , know that they will finish later ( possible week 11 or 12 ) ,
Just resist the temptation to cut down TOO EARLY , get the most out of her.

Nice , I never ran these . Definitely will watch your grow , it states its a hybrid , but maybe yours is Sativa Dominate . Apparently a high yielding plant and looks like a tall height plant too.

 

[Terrence martin]

I stand corrected it's blue mystic sorry about that

 

[Terrence martin]

Updated pics just hit week 6 of flowering

More pics

Also don't know if this is normal the yellowing og the leaves. I figured it was nearing the end of flowering so it was expected, or maybe heat stress! Any input is greatly appreciated
