Deficiency? Nute burn? Disease?

[NickOBSRT]

Problem:

Medium/grow method: Indoor in 50/50 promix and ocean forest

Feed: and supplements used: Nothing for 1st 3 weeks, then Fox Farms Grow Big once a week at 1/2 strength until week 6 Week 6 (real flowers) through current-water twice a week. Once with full strength Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom, and the second watering Big Bloom and molasses.

water source: Softened well water.

Strain/age: Northern Lights (Crop King) 8-1/2 weeks from sprout.

light used: Mars Hydro TS 1000

Climate:65-70 degrees F. 50%RH

Additional info: Had some aphids and soaked leaves with Spinosad after lights out about a week ago. Reduced them by over half. Gave leaves a light misting with spinosad two days ago, and I’ve only seen dead ones today. I’ve looked through 3-4 deficiency/diagnosis guides, and just wanted to get some opinions as this is my 1st grow. I was leaning toward Phosphorous or Potassium deficiency, but not sure.

Stop feeding nutes and just give ger plain water. Looks like she is winding down and will be ready to chop soon.

Thanks for the advice. Wasn’t sure. That’s the 1st thing I checked, but more than 50%of pistils still white, and trichomes are still glassy.

Ok, wait till pistols mostly dryed up and trychomes are mostly milky.to chop.

Do you see any benefit to switching the lighting schedule from 18/6 to 12/12 for autos? Or will they just do what they are gonna do for the next 2 weeks or so? Hoping to fatten the buds up a little. You think less light might extend their growth an extra week?

 

[namvet25]

they will fatten up slowly for the last couple weeks so just hang in there.

God damnit!!! I think they f’ing hermed!!! Whatever is causing this leaf issue probably stressed them. I don’t see any seeds yet, just little balls. I’m only growing 2 plants as a hobby. Do I just try to pluck all the balls, and hope for the best?? Maybe get some butter and edibles out of it? I’ll post pics when I’m done mowing the lawn. I think I’ll pluck, but not sure if I can save them. Probably only 2-3 weeks max till they’re done. Shit!!!

How is your water being softened. Whole house softeners will add sodium ions to the water in detrimental amounts?

 

[NickOBSRT]

Yeah, whole house softener. I’ve been PH and Nutrient testing the soil and runoff. Last nights results showed N deficiency, sufficient phosphorous, and deficient potassium. Ph right at 6.5. I’m going to retest potassium tonight, may have messed up that test and put the wrong drops in it. Pretty sure they are stressed because they were outdoor plants, and 2 weeks ago I bought a tent setup and moved them indoors due to wife’s paranoia about having them in the garden. Right now I’m about 50/50 on brown pistols, and still glassy trichomes. I imagine 2 weeks left on one plant, maybe 3 on the other

Found some balls today while I was gathering soil samples for the test. Not a lot, maybe 3-4 on each cola. About 6-7 colas per plant
