Bro, I hate to say it but your problems are above my head. I will help out any way I can but I won't steer you in the wrong direction trying to act like I know something I don't. Best to hit up someone that knows what to do.

With that being said, I am with you for the long haul and will answer any questions that I do know.

Best of luck LB. I understand it is stressful to make it this far along and then start having problems. Wishing you the best!

hey lowbudge! :five:

your plants are looking good bro -- that yellowing on the plant is normal @ this age and perfectly fine :thumbs:

from what i can tell -- you are just having some "N" def due to age + you feeding flowering nutes :dance:

----

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...

during flowering its normal to feed with low N but high P-K (for bud formation)
if you are worried about the yellowing - you can simply add some veg+bloom nute combo to even out

role of N-P-K

the important thing is this:-

1) in vegging a higher content of NITROGEN is essential for foliage growth
2) in flowering (when u change yr lights to 12/12) a higher content of POTASSIUM is essential for blooming energy
3) PHOSPHEROUS is always present and is required for root growth (essential for grow from start to finish)
the NPK levels are in that order, therefore for vegging the "N" will be higher than the "K",
and for flowering the opposite is the case, higher "K" than "N"

as far as the molasses / epsom salt etc -- 420 gave you some links (locally would be cheaper)
here is some info on some molasses by JM:

I searched for CalMag and had a good talk with the man at the store.
He said, there is no typical calmag available in german stores, because we mainly have "ready to use" products
Maybe I will order some uk stuff for the next grow.

I also feed somee vegnutes at 1/2 strenght, but wasnt able to keep ph at 7. Was something around 6.6.

cheers, lb

& to everyone with helpfull advises and/or no advises

day 66 - some nuteburn or burned leaftips
(I dont care about burned leaftips, as long as the green returns for at least 8-10 days)

View attachment 229108

tomorow I will do some daylight shots and may have a compareable image.
but as far I can see right now, yellowing has slowed down or maybe stopped.
If the tips were burned by the sprays, then this wont be a biggie, because I will only spray once a day from now on.
(it says on the back of the spray, to spray once a week....)

AND THOSE BUDDS ARE DENSE LIKE CONCRETE!!!!

Cheers, lb
ps: the growbox is kinda ready to be installed! Only doors are missing!

Looking nice lb, glad you have everything situated. The first auto grow was horrible for me. I made it but it was a struggle, you learn from your mistakes though!

Hopefully you get some good weight from this to subsidize your future grows.

+ Rep for that DIY box you made

early harvest?

hey there,

its day73 and I got a question on determanating the date of harvest.
I tried to see milky trichs and clear or amber or what ever...
my juwelers is only zooming like x30 times.

So I've read a lot on several forums, and somewhere I read something on putting out new hairs. They where telling, that if the plant doesnt produce hairs anymore, its the right time to harvest/flush

So here is my problem:

The ladies went for flowering within a range of nearly 12 days.

They started flowering on:
day 27 | day 34 | day 38
View attachment 231307View attachment 231308View attachment 231309

-you can see a difference in all buds that are in there.
the early ones have like nearly no new hairs producing.

-the mid ones have pretty much hair and look quite fat.

-the late ones are quite thin, and look much more healthy/greenish than the others and put out a lot of white hairs every day.
(they also fatten up real fast at the moment, wich the other ladies dont do anymore)


The Range of flower days is like 44 > 39 > 35 (of 45-60)
I planned to start flushing on the weekend, but now as I realize, the first ladies
would be on day 55 harvestet if I would start flushing right now.
It seems to me like I should go for it.

What do you think? could I start flushing and harvest the fast ones in a week, and try to let the late one sty in there with only water for a couple more days?

I'm so excited man.Now that I realize I've misscalculated a whole week


Cheers, lb
