Forgot to grow..

[CoviklaFlaire]

People I have big problems,it looks like I forgot to how to grow.
Last year I have so poor results of my grows that is starting to be frustrating.. I never ever had perfect looking girls but despite all of my f ups as new grower I would always get decent yields and results.. Last year I csnt get one proper grow with my autos..
It's few thing, sometimes I get too small plants (fckng up led distance in seedling) , other times I get small undeveloped buds or I get big airy ones..

Right now I got two grows photo and auto. My photos are exploding,and my autos looks like poors man wallet.. Buds are small and undeveloped and it looks like they will remain so although they are in 3rd week of flowering.. And leafs looks like sht..

Woah, lots of stuff going on there. Burnt tips = overdose of nutes. Dead and yellow leaves maybe caused by a lockout of some nutrient which was probably caused by over feeding. Or it could be PH related lockouts.
Fill out the infirmary form so that we can see all the info on your set up/feeds etc. Once we can see that info then it might help diagnose what’s going on

Please fill out this form:

Please fill in this form: (copy and paste part is below, this first one tell what specifically to include)

-Problem: (brief description)
-Medium/grow method: soil; soilless-- coco, or peat based like Promix, etc. (please provide the actual product name); DWC, NFT, etc.
-Feed and supplements used: include brand, dosage/strength, frequency of feeding and watering (alone); method-- by hand, drippers, rercirc' or drain-to-waste,... N-P-K #'s too if you can!
-Water source: RO/DI; tap- dechlorinated-?..... EC or TDS reading; pH (don't bother with this on RO/DI, do bother with TDS/EC though to confirm it's working well enough)
-Strain and age
-Climate: night and day ambient T and RH%; res' temperatures; any extremes in T/RH% exposure
- Light used: HID, LED, COB, combo of,... wattage; light cycle hours (20/4, 18/6 , etc.); distance to tops....
-Additional info: PH in the root zone. How long have the plants been affected?...How fast did symptoms appear?... Anything else you think might be relevant..

--Pictures including WHOLE PLANT PICS, and troubled leaves.. use normal light or flash as other light sources ruin color rendering, critical for diagnostics!

i want to see what people come up with for a diagnose, but I can tell you that sometimes you just got to share the shit your growing and see what others think. sometimes you need to follow your instincts since you are there first hand with them, while considering what others are saying.

I recently had some struggles with a few plants, thought I knew what I was doing but i tell you, there is a new challenge around every corner, especially since you are growing in an indoor environment. We think its more controlled but really these plants are used to being outside and in nature so much is different.

Let us know what you are working with and we can start pin pointing some things. measure run off, tell us about the soil, etc. etc.

Problem: Small thin buds,and too early dying of fan leafs..

Medium/grow method: Soi

Feed: and supplements used: Bio bizz start pack,

water source: tap water 8.6ph, 400ppm, super hard

Strain/age: they were transplanted to final pots at April 29. (I dont belive I keept them more that 8-9days in cups)

light used: 2x 180w. cobs cree/citizen 3070/1212. 3500k/3000k

Climate: 25/27c. 55% rh.. Light on.
I have this grow in Cottage in another part of gown,so I dont know lights off stats..

Additional info: I have very poor results last few grows,but I recon it was due to non optimal clim. conditions in my tent (too low rh) , but this time I kept my eyes on it and kept it above 50% ,I know I started to soon feeding them, that's why I have nute burn.. Until week I go I didnt water them till runoff.. I'm using autopots..

I have always decent results yield wise, but this time judging by the size of buds yield will be super low.. I recon 0.5 oz per plant..

 

[CoviklaFlaire]

And yes I dont know really how much is my ph off.. I measure it few yesrs ago( my tap water ph), and how much lime acid I have to add to lower it.. I keep my water in air bubbled bucket few days (after every watering I re fill it , and let it be) until is watering time.. And I measure it (lime acid)with tea spoons. Last two grows I used bio tabs,and and this grow and grow before this I switched to Biobizz nutes.. And yes From biobizz all mix, I seitched to this soil.. https://homeogarden.com/Izdelek/substratica-compact-mix-45l/

I used to have much worst problems,but until last three grows yield was always here,and decent.

sorry for soelling,typing in cellphone at work

Once I saw 400ppm water I didn’t look at anything else. Even if u cut your water 50/50 with RO your water is still on the hard side. Get yourself a water filtration system of some sort. Here’s my quote “Hard water makes for Hard growing!” Others will chime in on the rest

That's why I switched to "bio" growing coz I thought girls have wider range of feeding..
Thing is that my horrible result started last 3-4 grows

I think my Ph was constant off, but to affect so much on my girls??

The fact that they are growing under such non-optimal conditions shows how amazing these plants are. Your starting water is dismal. Did you check to see if it has chloramines? It can lock out many nutrients from the get go. You need to know the PH in your root zone. You need a good PH soil probe to check the PH in the root zone. Get a Blue Lab Leap soil probe and meter or an Accurate 8 soil probe or the clone of it. Don't buy cheap ones they just do not work.

Circled reactions can be caused by water with high PPMs.

Fix the water first. I can get filtered water for 30 cents a gallon at the corner market. Then mix it 2 - 1 to get your PPM <200. Fertigate at PH 6.2.

Tag me when you get this done and see if the yellowing stops.
