I need some help. many leafes are yellowing in a goldish color...

some comparison from last week
View attachment 228010View attachment 228011

See this gold color? I thought it could be iron...
but ph is normal (between 6.2ish and 6.4ish)
after starting with that red tips, wich now got violet to black. I began to give only water with ph 7, asuming to low ph in the soil and some lockout...

View attachment 228012
theese leafes are from below, is it normal yellowing because of not enough light,
or do I have to do something? I think they arent fine at the moment, because all leafes are yellow...

PLEASE HELP, I DONT WANT TO SCREW IT ON THE FINISHLINE!!!!!

cheers, lb

edit: I just feed with 1/4 nutes and a 6.7 making the runoff be 6.4 so soil ph should be around 6, right?

Correct, the soil ph was a little low. The ph is a pain to keep up with but I can imagine in a grow that small, it takes very little to get out of spec very quickly. There just isn't much buffer with that small amount of soil. With your ph being up now, i would wait and water at 6.3 again when needed and check the runoff again. You should be good! There is gonna be some yellowing coming in to the home stretch as the buds begin pulling nutrients out of the leaves, if you look around on some finished grows the last few weeks most plants look like they are ready to die at any moment.

Looking at the pics again, it looks like you may have a bit of nute burn as well. Be easy with trying to make too many corrections at once.

The more I thought about it LB, you may want to drop a picture in the infirmary and see what the masses have to say. Namvet is always helpful and quick to reply, also from what I have read stunted it real good at micro grows. This late in the game, it would probably be good to get some differing opinions. Maybe shoot them a pm and ask them to take a look. It can't hurt.

Thanks man, I pm'ed them.

Hey namvet,

nutes are 3-3-4 & 0-8-4 but feedingplan says I should switch to the 0-8-4 this week.
If your right with the nitrogen def, it would worse...

i'd give her a really good watering with a good run off with a ph around 6.8. did she get any calmag? she might be craving for some mg at this stage of the growth..? the next watering id hit her with a little epsom salt and molasse.

 

[lowbudge]

Thanks for your replies,
via pn I recieved also some advises...
But I have a problem translating things...

CalMag: is it also a product name or just something I should have in my feedingplan (hesi flower complex says, there is cal and mag in)
ammonia: is this ammoniak? wich is contained in pee?! where would I probably get something like this?
molasse: I only find shisha-molasse, wich literlaly is honey mixed with glycerin, right?
epsom salt: I only find it in like "bathing-salt" or in horse care products...

holy shit... I thought the finish would be easier.


any links to amazon?

Cheers, lb

Hey LB,

1) CalMag is basically calcium and magnesium supplements, this is what I use but there are many others - http://www.amazon.com/Technaflora-M...=UTF8&qid=1369746024&sr=8-2&keywords=magi+cal

2) Ammonia - I can only assume ammonium nitrate?, which is the N in fertilizer. I am not too sure about this because normally you are cutting back on N during this stage

3) Mollases - http://www.amazon.com/Nature-Liquid...=UTF8&qid=1369746534&sr=1-1&keywords=molasses

4) epsom salt - Yep, bath salts. It is high in magnesium and sulfur http://www.amazon.com/Epsom-Salts-M...TF8&qid=1369746610&sr=1-1&keywords=epsom+salt You should be able to get this at a lower cost locally

Molasses you can find in most health food shops(pretty cheap, get the un-sulphered kind)!:smokebuds:

I know its a bit whiny, but I'm pretty much overwelmed with all that information...
I flushed 2-3 times with a total of nearly 3 liters of plain water (7.7) and the runoff was "only" 6.6/6.5 so I assume my soil ph is kinda sour (5.6+) right?

spraying amonium(household cleaner) seems good to get nitrogen to the leafes quick, but is not availble in pure form at my stores...



So this is what I try to do now.
I will go to the store and try to get a bigger container, to put the plants into some "new" soil and wil try to get some CalMag
and feed them this evening with 3-3-4 and some CalMag as well.


edit: I have all Hesi produkts available and I cant believe major nutes missing in it...

edit2: back from the store and nearly doubled the amount of soil. (even if it means that I cant remove the pot outside the growbox anymore...)

new container & removed LST to a minimum.

edit3: I got some leafspray with 1% of N and amonium(urea) to give some N-exchange on the leafes...
View attachment 228538


so if nobody will shout/scream or yell at me, I will give them tonight 3-3-4 & 0-8-4 in an avarage dosis with ph around 7 if possible. I also will try to spray them 3 times a day. (lights turn off at 2 am, maybe I can do a spray just a minute befor, so the spray wont dry so fast)

Cheers, lb

should I try to get some molasses as well? I got powerzyme, wich will produce sugar as well
