Looking good in there matey - hopefully youve had some clear days your way. Nice to be a bit more settled but I can hear ya on having to raise the lights etc lately - Ive got my portable AC ordered so when we start hitting the 40s shortly hopefully Ill be able to face those northerly winds (gasp!) and tell em to "stay the hell of my grass!" Dropped a cple S60s myself earlier today :thumbs:
Dont treat all those boys too badly - we've gotta get some Aussie Auto genetics out there!!
Hope yr well

Quick update:
I have been sick, well sicker than normal, but not as sick as a few of my trees, at least I should live.
So a few days back things went a little silly in my cab, I am not sure if this my own doing (stuffed the mix, maybe) or the nutes/additives (Gh MaxiBloom, PK 13-14, Yield Plus)

On the 15th 3 x S60 were removed from the cab and now are Gorilla's in the bush, hope they like 40+C, lol
On the 16th is when bad stuff started, Sq2 was dead within 8-12 hours and Sq3 is close to death and Sq1 has fared the best. Sq1 has a lot of yellowing but should survive, Sq3 has lost most of its leaves and generally looks crap and wont last much longer I think...
Sorry for the shit pics but its hard to take pics while in bed
I will try to get a better update organized in the next day or so.
As of today the 19th Sq1 and Sq3 are both 44 days old....

Thanks Glaucoma but I think I may as well kill them, they look worse today, Sq3 is totally stuffed even the seed coverings are going brown...e.g. the whole plant is nearly brown.
Sq1 which I thought would pull through is going the same way as Sq2 & 3, the yellowing has speed up again...and yes I know as the plants age some leaves yellow and die, but not the whole fxxxing plant in one go and yellow buds just aint normal.
The following pic was taken yesterday a few minutes after my previous post, believe it or not but they look good in the pic below compared to this morning.

Looks like I have lost this round also.
So the score;
S60 - 2
Stunted - 0

Gutted for you mate. How long did they have left? For what it's worth, at least your plants looked good up untill the 16th. You must be doing something right. It's a shame mishaps can be so devastating
I really enjoy watching your grows and some of your comments and pictures are funny as hell. One of the more entertaining threads for sure!
+rep for all the hard work and dedication. Hang in there man

Dang Stunted! Shit on the bad luck! Sending LOADS of Karma your way bro!! 
Hope you get well soon! The leaves look like shite but the buds look great! I have had my share of that lately... But as long as you get smokable buds that works you can chalk it up as a win!

You think the nutes are making your water too acidic? What did you add before the change?
I wish i could tell you what is going on...

Thanks for the kind words folks.
I am "Better" now so says the all knowing doctors, bunch of wankers if you ask me, I mean WTF at least wait till I sit down before getting your prescription book out......
Sq1, Sq2 and Sq3 are dead. It's not all bad as I have some more females growing, but it is disappointing none the less.
@ Auto-snooch, they had 3 weeks or thereabouts to go, and the thread ain't dead yet so more fun could happen, I had something special nearly setup for Z7 (male) but could not get it done as I was not well, if I get into the party cup grow off then you will likely see it happen
@WVR, thanks and I am now "Better" according to the doctors, I suppose that's why they gave me Parkinson's disease tablets....and I don't have Parkinson's.....
@Bailer, personally I think it was a combination of Coco + "Yield Plus" + Me = Root rot, you will see why later in my next post....trying to go through some more data but so far "Yield Plus" is at the top of the culprits list, I am not very high on the list but still I must shoulder some of the responsibility.
And wow it's going to take some time to catchup with all the new posts

OK the results are in and I know why the three plants died.
When it's all said and done it was "Stunted" who killed Sq1, Sq2 and Sq3
I missed one important bit of information on the "Yield Plus" bottle, but first the reason I bought this product.
My plants need more N, they show overall yellowing early on that slowly progresses as the plants age, running out of grow nutes and using mostly bloom nutes from the start ain't good with autos it seems.
So I went to Bunnings hardware and had a look, saw "Proganics Hydroponic Yield Plus, increases Nutrient Uptake & Yield" and on the back:
Nitrogen 8%
Phosphorus 2.5%
Potasium 6%
Calcium 2%
Magnesium 2%
So its hydro, has the N I need with Cal, Mag, I'm gettin a woody, and some other goodies in it, all my problems solved or so I think.
So the important bit of previously missed information "Organic Based Liquid Plant Food"
Damn, Organic ain't good when you do not have full control over medium/res temps. So I add the Yield Plus with some nutes, I get sick-er, the weather gets near 40c and the lovely liquid organics start fermenting nicely, now I cannot smell this happening as I have a sinus infection and everything smells like shit.
That night they got another dose and my lights run through the night to control temps a bit so it was nice in there for some more fermenting.
In total ten plants (4xCoco/Perlite, 5xPerlite/Vermiculite, 1xPerlite) received two doses of Yield Plus and three died, there is a good reason why the other seven are not dead.
The three that died were in Coco/Perlite and it held on to more moisture at each flood, and the other Coco one was put out with two others that same dosing night as Gorilla's in the bush so the root temps would have been low enough to prevent fermentation. The other three Perlite/Vermiculite would have flushed very quickly and that's what saved them.
So me not fully reading a product label has caused me to be a murderer of some reasonably well growing plants.....
It took me ages to go through all my notes and pics, then I started reading bottle labels again and that's when the brain cells went all painful and I got a Raging Clue (eh JM).
P.S I took the root masses to someone and had them smell, all three smelt of "Off fish" however they where still nearly white and not slimy to the touch at all.
WOW this post is more like a novel, sorry
It's not my fault, I am stoned
