[smokeyfromau]

Bloody hell man, 3 MASSIVE plants... those pots done the job nicely!!
No wonder you shit yourself that the neighbours might see, I think I can see you on Google maps!

You only need one of them to bud up and that's you done for the year!
Lovely work Brother.... looking forward to seeing them when they're done!

Thanks Tee ! Yes i know the neighbours habbits lol, actually once the real estate company did an aerial shot lol of the street i could see the tiny line of carts lol, so google earth maybe so lol if the update their images

Thanks Bro, i will do my best to get them to the finish line

----------------

Went to the ranges near home for a walk, some reminant rainforest in the gullies.

Smokey my man, you're still spanking this grow so no worries (OK a little is healthy- )... I see Missy and GTG have you covered on the lighting issues,...

I saw the new goodies- ... that fat bag of humic is like, a lifetime supply! The wetting agent, deploy that stuff ASAP, it will also help knock some particle bound nutes off and get then back in play again,...
Fulvic is supposed to be good for us meat bags too, I saw it as a nutritional aide when researching- - WTH?! ..sounds badly constipating,....
Great to see the blooming action started, Prime Time be comin' mon! .... oooOoo, that Bubba, she's a plump beast, right up Aunty's alley in fact. You gotta show her to Aunty, post it in Globals...
Meantime you're gonna need a forklift pretty soon to bus them beauties about! ..don't your bro'ski is going to make the cut on that

Hey Waira Thanks mate, yes Missy and GTG fixed me up and GB over my turning on the grow light worry during darkness. A night of a Nimbin stone, i managed to flick them again, now its a 2 person job to make sure it doesnt occur again

unfortunately, i do have some worries atm, so i guess its healthy.


Fulvic was amazing picked up Liberty Right away, all flourish lol not sure that smiliy is the best looks more sick like or demonic
Humic, she is a pretty big lot 1kg of powder

I was a little nervous with the wetting agent as i read the instructions. So i give them 1 watering can between them with 10ml of wetting agent in 9L.

• May be incompatible with acidic materials including some sulphate based trace elements and phosphate fertilisers. Jar Test if unsure of compatibility.

Fulvic for humans, actually i noticed the Plant Doctor also seeds health stuff for animals and humans i think lol have to check,was more interested in the plants needs, lol who wants to be constipated , so maybe is best for the plants only lol

They get pretty heavy the girls after watering, but its just a light to the carts and they stay on them all day till bedtime, yet bugs still manage to get on them - looks likie aphids i think black and white bugs. I am thinking of getting some insecticdal soap, cant leave it till buds develope.

Wish the ladies to move along more with the blooming.

Sad news first Nimbin A has passed away, i noticed she had lots of gnats so flushed with neem and bti. I started to notice some dying off, long story short, lucky white bucket its base mustve clogged - i think root rot and i feared this to spread to the others girls, could it be their yelllowing atm? I thought, think some def somewhere instead maybe


Who is Aunty Waira? I will def stop by to share a pic of the girls. Globals is a thread in AFN? I am hoping on plump buds.

Other news Autos harvested - drying wet 480grams

I bought some Canna Bio Flores 3 N 1 P K 6 and S 1, and to increase P i sprinkle a closed fist around the top the pot to water in.

I am thinking net watering , not the worst but a nutrient issue with the girls, either a flush or some other play is needed, maybe just plain wetting agent mixed with humic and fulvice

Girls back in bed, need maybe 2 more T5 lights in there to cover them, more 2700K ones for bloom

New Editions to the family
2 - Autoseeds - Sweet CBD, doesnt look like 3rd seed will strike, be a first if it doesnt

2 or 3 Harlequin Fast Feminised will be dropped in water tonight ( hopefully will fall into time with the harvest of the big haze girls bubba kush and DP

Given how otherwise lush and leafy those plants are, personally I wouldn't be worrying too much about a few slightly yellow lower leaves.
They're going well into flowering now, shaping up nicely, not much stretch left on that Durban from the shape on the growing tip.

Thanks SM. They were good on the 8th, so between then and 8 days they have gone like this. I wonder if its N or even the wetting agent. I just gave them plant water today, soil was dry at the top after a bit it seemed okay but drainage is too good, it just drains out the bottom and sides, have to do it carefully, upside no worries about root rot.

The yellow is is the mid layers also, and Durban she cant afford to lose many leaves, not as bushy as her sisters in foliage

Kinda got myself all stressed out and wondering wetting agent or N ( the 5in1 was ultra diluted) so not much N has been available.

I keep looking at my grow notes above, cant be P as they love P and K also, but possible. I think the yellowing happened before the wetting agent , not `100%

Botanical detective work.
Hope you can find some leads...

What i am doing trying to think what ive done, as its something ive done wrong, why for now i gave them plant water as i read the wetting agent re possible issues with phospates etc. I may need another brand get skirts for the ladies to hold side water in, also the fancy italian made pots not geniue 35L either i think under 30, took 28 scoops soil including perlite

Thanks SM, best i can do is try to follow leads, plain water is my first step, pots should dry out in a day or 2 for the next plan of attack.

i think me just adding P (ground up - not measuring it - closed fist for each girl), if this was issue Bubba Kush would be worse, she is not as advanced in flowering maybe.

Hope someday to be more sucessful with the growing, i killed vege and messed bloom lol, eithe rexcess of something or a lock out of something or low N

Poor girls atm, watered at least and low humidity, never thought of that, could be environmental 30%- 35% today, and cool nights , and also the tent possible also, (only air in would be any that creeps under the covers.)

Looking great Smokey..

 

[Waira]

Hey Smokey! ..... let's see what's what here,...

That wetting agent, that's really a multi-product, made of many things, most they don't say specifically - ... not a bad thing, but maybe not good either?
I dunno WTF they are talking about with that "incompatibility" issue, I'd get on the phone to them about that! Weird ads hell frankly, the last thing it should do is cause cross reactions with common sulfate compounds,... Do they mean gypsum (CaSO4), other micronutrient sulfates? (my fav' Earth Juice Microblast is mainly sufate based compounds)... You'd think the humic/fulvic would prevent that,... One would think this product isn't meant to screw up S availability! They got some explaining to do....
The whole plant color fade, that's less clear,... I can't tell is it worst at tops? S defc. is the one that usually does this, whole plant thing, but tops worst and first usually,... P defc, or a co-defc. with something else can do this too, but i keep thinking something else is causing a bottleneck here,...
-- in-pot pH is always where you start first, that must be known to eliminate lockout, and help confirm it's more likely a simple lack-of type defc.,... not lock-out or an antagonistic uptake issue... Have you seen page 2 in the Defc. Pic Depot and the nute excess charts? I don't think you have an excess issue, but....** (see below) ... Do you have a soil pH probe, like Hecno's? That's the same unit as the Accurate 8 I tout....
--- some N defc. happening too, partly normal, but most often it hits low down, draining individual leaves first, not paling the whole plant... it's readily mobile
-- how cold has it been at night? Low T's, even in the low teen's C can retard uptake/transport... how fast they warm up is also a big player...
-- I see you do have Ca, Si going in,... B is another very very important micronute, it's a major facilitator like Si and Ca for uptake and transport.. Does anything you've added have it? An easy fix that, Borax! ... ** also, what you've added, how much, how often should be reviewed for me,..
-- large plants in fairly small pots relatively speaking are more prone to nute draining/holding issues.... you have a lot of biomass up top, and if that gets too far off balance, the roots can't keep up... makes for touch, easily triggered defc, issues...
-- any inoculants going in to support the soil herd? In organics, that herd is CRITCAL...

Sad news first

Nimbin A has passed away, i noticed she had lots of gnats so flushed with neem and bti. I started to notice some dying off, long story short, lucky white bucket its base mustve clogged - i think root rot and i feared this to spread to the others girls, could it be their yelllowing atm? I thought, think some def somewhere instead maybe

...not surprised, she was hanging by a thread,... annuals want to die after blooming too, afterall! ...certainly root pests/rot will make that unstoppable regardless..
