New Grower First grow. Are my plants doing ok?

I will try getting some Epsom salts.
What does the epsom salt do to the plants?

Thanks.

It adds magnesium.

There's some info here on growing, my guess is once the plant hit the flowering
stage, it needed more than it was getting. What do you have for lighting?

That makes sense, thanks for the tip.
I have a 600w HPS in a tent size 165x65x160
 
Hi Bernie, so far so good by the looks of them. Calcium & magnesium often just called cal/mag (of which, epsom salts is a good source and so is Andrew's liver salts).
These salts along with a balanced ph will enable your plants to absorb the goodness from nutrients that you feed them. If funds are low just give them tomato fertilizer or if your are flush then any good fert high in potash.
Even our local Pound shop sells PK boost and bloom nutes for coco + coir.
And guess what, only costs a pound. From a pound shop! Yeah, I know!!!

good luck pal, eP.

Thanks buddy, i will try buying some Epsom salts and add that to the water.
Haha, thats weird, nothing goes for a pound in a pound shop, does it? ;)
 
It might be too late to help them.They look like they are having nitrogen def that is hurting the entire plant.They are not ready to harvest yet but you could try and give them nitrogen along with your flower nutes and it might help some what with your bud growth.You should have asked about the problem long ago before it got this bad.

Thank you for your answer, what is a good way to give them more nitrogen?
I am all new to this, and didnt knew about this forum before today, i tried another forum about a week ago but they gave me no answer but one, too much water, So i had to just try my way out of it, learning by doing.
They have about 4-6 weeks left of their life, they are in week 6 at the moment.
Some of the plants are growing better buds than others, most of them are ok compared to the tall skinny one on my pictures.
 
What kind of nutes are you using now and have you checked your ph lately?What did you feed them from the start?

Check my journal in my signature brother. I had PH issues and N lockout "sort your PH, it's never too late!" is my motto now! Mine bounced back, albeit super light green fan leaves but the buds all came through nice and green. I'm just about to harvest. Mine wasn't quite at week 6, more like week 4. Good luck and karma for your plants man.
