Hi,im a new member/grower long time toker, and long time AFN forum stalker :worship:

as a new DWC autoflower grower ive had to learn alot of things via this and other forums before i even fill a bucket,thought i was good to go,but nothing can prepare you to see your 5 week old heading Blue dreamatic turn sick its a whole other ball game..
i think i know the cause but before i chuck it i need to know if it has turned hermie(pics)!!!..This is what happen,,i grow in canna aqua +the 4 micros under a 250w led full spec 24 hour light in 20l/5gal buckets water temp 17-20c plant is 7 weeks old..

now canna aqua veg STATE there is cal/mag in vega...so i only used 0.5 p/l of Marine CaMg+ by bio deisel from the start of veg,and they say to run 5.2-6.2 ph so i ran 5.6 to be safe,my ph stays soild so the ph dont rise alot it stays with in a .2 or .3 range..
this plant (pic)went to head early 3 and a bit weeks,cal mag lock out never occurred to me as i was still running 5.6 thinking its in veg stage(auto's grow fast caught me off guard wow) and it what is now painfully aware cause my cal/mag lock out due to me NOT switching up the ph to 6.0+ in time when it flowered as the pic shows..

i flushed 24 hours turned lights out,, foliar sprayed 1m/p/l cal mag.straight away as this is the optimal time the leaves absorb the spray ive heard(watch your hot bulbs!)..put it back in aqua flores now with full dose cal/mag at 6.2 ph ...ec of 1.2,my other BDM are running in 1.9 ec 2nd week flower and drinking as much juice as i can give them..

they are/were showing the same signs but ive flushed em all and reset the ph level 6.2 and they are popping bud sights every where from LST its looking fine(ive got charts now )but this one im showing(pic) is gone i think,looks like cal/mag lock out and turned hermie...

i see ball sacks and hairs it's been heading for 4 weeks way small and the nodes are close and very short thick steams purple leave stem suggest mag lock out the spots on the leaves suggest cal lockout and it has turned hermie???

any advice is welcome on this cal/mag/hermie issue i dont want it popping dust onto my other healthy ones...is it true that led lights somehow affect calcium uptake in someway?

hope this all makes sense as it's alot to take in at once and would appreciate any help on this thanks in advance....:thanks::worship:

I'm not so sure that is a hermie,could be flowers starting.I would wait a few more days to make sure.

This doesn't look hermied to me either... Looks almost like a reveg, but I'm not an expert. Keep her going!

yeah it's scaring the hell outta me as a first time grower ive looked at 100's of hermie pics but i cant make a call on it still..i have it separated in the bathroom but its only under a fluorescent grow tube i'll post update pic in a day or so hopfully it will show a bit more but it just dont look right it's like 30% size of my other plants and is it really work saving it,as canna aqua+micros aint cheap so i gotta weigh it all up and just take a loss and a learn from it,but if i someone cant not say one way or the other on here what hope do i have lol,im just gonna have to nuke it in a few days after the update pic..thanks for the reply :)
 
Is this an auto or photo? What is your light schedule?
 
fingers crossed,im keeping it for now in quarantine for a few more days post another pic and see what comes out of that but yeah my gut feeling is a female... i figure why waste the power of the internet,and get some constructive feedback on 50/50 issues like this i guess,your the 1st to call female the other reply's where maybe's so..wait and see...thanks for your feedback,still so much to learn i have.....
