[Eclectic Elle]

@TheDuke420 I'll do it now, although I think the Sweet Special is still growing upwards!

Sumo WW Original - day 71
Sweet Special Auto - day 60
Sweet Seeds unknown from mixed packet - day 37
Zambeza Blueberry - day 8

OK I need some advice please. Trichome production is hellishly slow on the WW, but the pistils are all going/gone brown. This is the one with the calcium deficiency. Should I just let it get on with it, or is there anything I can do to hurry her up? I'm under CFL so none of them are getting through a lot of water and she seems healthy apart from the calcium leaves.

do you have a pic of her brotha? do you have anything to foliar feed some CalMag?

 

[Eclectic Elle]

OK hold on, brb

@tripaholic88 Right, here y'are. Yes I can foliar feed calcium, and I have magnesium chloride flakes - will those be suitable, or not? And how often should I feed the calcium? I've sprayed three times since last week when I got the liquid calcium fertilizer. It's only a little bottle, I don't really know how much to spray. The nice healthy growth at the front is my Sweet Special Auto.

yea looks like cal and mag to me. since you sprayed has it slowed at all? ive never used either of them 2 ive only used Advanced Nutrients revive as foliar but maybe @Eyes on Fire or @912GreenSkell may be able to help

*** edit***
sorry for the late response i had to step away quick

 

[Eclectic Elle]

No, it doesn't look like it's slowed it at all. It's odd. I expected it to, but now I know the pH of my water is a bit out maybe I should try again.

Unfortunately i dont have access to my pc so i cant see the pics very well. Eof should be able to help you out. If not tag in waira
Based on the heaviest affwcted area(middle older fan leaves) i think mag deficiency.

 

[Eclectic Elle]

I have whitefly in my tent. I've bought some sticky traps and hung one up.

The deficiency on the WW hasn't improved as far as I can tell but it's only the large fan leaves that are affected.

I now have both calcium and magnesium to feed with so I shall give that a shot, as it looks like the Sweet Special auto is going the same way. Bollocks.

I may be tempted down the hydro or wilma route at this rate!!

OK so we've taken and dried the first test bud from the WW and hubby says it's best for the first j of the morning. So I've taken another one today, 5 days after the first, and we'll see how we get on. However, in other news, the Sweet Seeds Special Auto is also now showing cal/mag deficiency so I've given them all some treatment. SSSA is looking mighty fine though!

I'm all over the whitefly problem, there's a large sticky trap hanging up the other side of the tent which is doing a marvellous job! SSSA is seriously sticky though, I may have to take a sample bud over the weekend!
