New Grower BillyWu's first grow - Think Different autoflowering

[Muddy]

As long as your pH is okay the epsom salts should help. May take a few days for it to become effective. Just keep an eye on your leaves and make sure it doesn't get any worse.

Thanks for the help again Muddy :] I'm trying to measure the soil runoff pH but last time I tried it lead to over watering :| Not enough comes out the bottom to get an accurate reading.

 

[Muddy]

Every time you water you want about 10% of what you give to run off, so there should always be enough to test. When nutrients break down they create a bi product, which are salts. That extra 10% helps to leach the salts from your soil. If allowed to build up they can cause nutrient lockouts similar to what can be caused by the pH being off. So always make sure you're giving enough water/feed to get that 10%.

Hey Billy, looking good. The TD will thAnk you for the Epsom. You should continue to give her Epsom for a few more feeds, at a lower dosage: 1/2 tbsp will be good now.

For next grow I recommend you get a good calmag supplement. Epsom salts are really good, but with calmag you'll also be giving Ca in larger quantities. You'll see a difference in sturdiness for sure!

Healing karma!

Day 43

Everything seems fine now, no more bad turns :] The topmost leaves are all nice and green. The fan leaves on the bottom are going yellow though from what I presume is lack of light. Starting to get trichomes on the leaves now too :]

Update: Just took my scalpel to the plant to remove some old shoots with no leaves, and shoots with dying leaves. Looks a lot better now :]

Day 46

Only 3½ weeks left to go! She's looking quite good now, think the magnesium deficiency has been fixed. No more leaves have browned since I added the salts :] A few leaves still have brown spots on them, but they're not dead, or at least not yet.

Not sure how much bud I'm gonna get from this plant, from what I can see now I estimate I'll get about 150g at most.
