First grow - stealth wardrobe! Pictures and question...

Lookin' good! I wish I had room for a tent!
Financially it's all about priorities. I am a student living on governmental support. I just chose not to eat out every day for a month or two in order to get this going. However I live in a country where the exchange rate from my home country is advantageous. Lights are without a doubt the biggest expense, but also the most rewarding in the end I guess.
Good luck with your growing!

Still looking for a proper answer regarding the probable nute deficiency. Started feeding more N while waiting for an order of Cal-Mag. Leaf yellowing in spreading quite rapidly and vertical growth seems slower, which worries me even though it's supposedly normal during flowering.

image.jpg image.jpg No tent my man I am using a wardrobe just like you the only difference is I can't cut holes into my closet and have to manually adjust humidity and temp. next step is a grow tent better lights better seeds when I can afford it and I hear you on the broke part same here in America. I didn't even buy seeds I got lucky off some local stuff, giving me 2 gals but they have taken forever since late nov. And the yellowing leaves seems normal for grows finishing their flowering stage. Sorry to post on your thread but our grows seem similar and I can't post my own journal yet .

No problems at all, I appreciate the input and always nice to see how other people are growing!

Yeah ventilation and heat was my biggest issue. What kind of lamp do you use and what temps do you reach in there? If you have a closed area I can recommend using some DIY CO2 ( https://www.rollitup.org/t/simple-fermentation-diy-co2-producing-setup.200112/ ). First of all it lets you keep slightly higher temperatures, and secondly it makes up for the lack of fresh CO2 coming from air exchange.

Yeah I am not sure what's going on. I know that it is more or less normal, but I am inclined to believe that my leaves are yellowing at such a rate that all of them will fall off before flowering is complete, if allowed to continue...

We will see what effect additional nutrition will have!

Best regards.

I have. I've used Gold Label's starter pack on half dosage starting from the second week, in Gold Label Special Mix soil, according to instructions. Last two weeks I've been feeding them full strength.

I would guess that's your problem

Implying that I have fed them too little? I tend to agree, just making sure.

Thank you, looking forward to see your results. How do you plan to counter the heat from a 600w open bulb? What are the dimensions of your wardrobe?

Allrighty, will try giving them clean water for a while! I don't think the symptoms visually look like nute burn though.


Yeah that's gonna be sweet!

don't look like it to me either....... but feeding full strength anything is a problem

I would wait til they start to wilt before they got anymore water..... probably part of the problem

Actually, the process seems to have accelerated since I stopped feeding them, even though it was not even a week ago.
Could it really be that flowering is coming to an end? To me they look way too small for that.
Other ideas? I couldn't get a pH reading for a few weeks and I know that my tap water is slightly alkaline, perhaps related?

Apologies for the poor quality photos.

If u ever over feed or get lockout then leech them with water mixed with a few drops (3-4) of dishwash liquid this will bring your ph back to neutral also fixing any over fert issue aswell so u can start again hope this helps definetly helped me alot in the past

Allright thanks for the input. I have tried to drain out whatever shit they don't like but recovery seems slow if there is any at all. Almost all fan leaves are dead but still new green things are popping out here and there.
Are they really all "f****d"? Are the remaining buds smokeable?
