El nino, Sweet Diesal and Train Wreck. Hydro and Dirt under one 750watt hps

3 days ago I took my nutes from 600ppm to 1200 ppm and lifted my light 12" and turned it up to 1000watts, I also added 250 ml of 3% h202 and change my water timer to 5 miuntes on for every hour off and heres what I got after one light cycle. BUT only on one of two plants

Day 1 of leaf damage


After finding the damage I dropped the 800ppm and gave a quick 5.7ph pure water flush to both plants rockwool and resumed the pump feed.


Day 2 of leaf damage


the first two pic's are of the original girl with the leaf damage, which has now spread to the second set of leaves. The third picture is the other girl which is now showing yellowing or bleaching in her low fan leaves.

My temps have always been high in the room 28-32 but this has just taken hold since the nute change. Next thing to consider is the nute are probably 2 years old, advanced sensi grow A & B and B-52 was all that was used and ph down.

This morning i took drastic action and change the rez to straight ph pure water and opened up the feed cylce to 5 min every 1 1/2 hour.

Well my frustration with my plants in hingeing on your opinions.

I can't get these babies to move forward they're 22 days old and they haven't grown in the last ten. I think I stunted them with excessive nute but just cant be sure. They are showing signs of Nitrogen def. but there's no reason they should, they are on a 1/4 strenght nute cycle because of there size,. Ph is good, temps are ok, light is good. Still they refuse to GROW!!

LET'S HEAR YOUR THOUGHTS

1. CUT THE BITCHES

2. FORCE FEED THEM FULL STRENGHT NUTES

3. WAIT FOR SOMETHING TO CHANGE?

4. ????????????????????????????

THIS IS WHAT FRUSTRATION LOOKS LIKE

Day 37


After all the trouble, I was able to get thing back in line but in the mean time i started three others thinking the first two El nino would not make it

And then there was five

No comments? hmmmmm. I thought I had nice plants lol

El nino

Ok, so last night I took the nutes up to 1600ppm in the res using the Advance lineup, added 100ml Bid bud, 50ml B-52 and 50ml each of Sensi bloom A and B.

Topped up the res with 12L of water and and PH'd to 5.7

Im gettting fluctuation in the res Ph which is new since i switched to flower so the are definitely drinking differently, I am a bit cautious when it comes to pushing this strain hard on the nutes, they seem very sensitve to change and as you know i have already burnt them once.

The small one in the middle still has not put roots down to the water in the bottom of the buck and thats holding her back.

Train Wreck & Sweet Diesal

Gave a strong feeding to the both teh dirty plants, 5-1-1, and 0-10-10 organic fish ferts, and Advanced cal mag bloom, big bud and b-52

Now the dirt grow is a first for me so im expection that i might run into a few bump. I PH tested my water solution after i added the ferts knowing i had a PH problem fromt the last feeding, which i though was a high PH problem but believe it or not when i tested my solution it was 2.45 PH

Ya I sure did give my plant the last drink with a lighter but similar solution
oh well live and learn, got it right this time 6.5 PH is what I settled on

The train wrech really smells great and is the only skunky smelling plant of the bunch.

The Sweet D is showing first signs of flowering

El nino is still streching, and looks cool, I tied the two big ones down in veg and let some of the shouts catch up to the main and now I have a canopy with 4 or five leaders shouts on both plants, that a first for me.

Anyway here's what they look like today
