Hey I got this seed from a buddies bag of weed. It was pretty dank weed but never knew the name. I got it under a 400w HPS with reflector hood and a 43w clf in a reflector cone and two 23w cfls on the other side of it. Its grow box is 4ft by 4ft by 7ft with a 6 inch fan for exhaust and a another 6 inch fan in the room for circulation. It stays around 75 degrees during day and 50-55 at night. Humidity goes from 20-30 depending on if i water that day or not. The nutrients are 15-35-15 . Now my question is whats causing my leaves to turn yellow and dry out? Is it to much nutes or because for the last month i havent been using ph down and i need it? I bought a huge jug of up and down today and stopped using nutes. any help or comments would help here is some pics. enjoy :joint: SIRUS Oh and ps this IS in fact a hermaphrodite. i have a few male sacks around the two stalks and have tried and hopefully succeeded in fertilizing two of the buds on the bigger stalk in the middle area. I only fertilized two buds to hopefully ensure fertilization.

Get a soil PH tester make sure its between 5.5-7. You may be over-nuting but they don't see too bad.

maybe im color blind....but is that black visquen (sp?) used for walls in your tent.....um id go with flat white paint...mylar....white poster board.....even tin foil before I would use black. how long have they been in flower? get a cheap water ph tester, check your run off. what was your nute schedual? are you feeding them full strength? are you feeding them fert every feeding or every other?

alright so the walls are just black poly, i know i need reflector walls but im moving in a few days and im just plannin on stapling the mylar-like material to the frame, im using full strength nutes 15-35-15 and was feeding them every other but have stopped altogether. the light is exactly 18 inches away from the top.

Alright so upon close examination of my baby girl today I seen that there are at least 2 bracts that have been pollinated and are forming into seeds. :hump: But on the other hand I found one male sack coming out of one of the main colas. I hope that bud doesnt get fertilized. The buds almost seem puny but they look great with tonnes of huge resin glands and smells absolutely delicious, like grapes, :joint:

Alright so i still havent fed it any more nutes but the burns seem to have gotten worse but i think they are peakin out and are going to start getting better. I'm not using tap water anymore either(i was letting it sit out for 24 hours then put it into my tub with a bubbler in it) now im only using distilled water thats been oxygenated with a bubbler and PHed. Another addition in the moisture meter i found at home depot for 6 bucks. Thats what i hate about canada the home depots and ronas only carry that shit seasonal so i couldnt find one for a decent price, this gadget is gonna be sooo helpful. I can now very distiguishly see my seeds that are forming.. :hump::hump:. i tried two different buds and succeeded, even one or two others that had male sacks on them fertilized. THis is great, i have between 7-10 seeds altogether and i took a pic of some, you can see them by my fingers if you look hard. enjoy the porn everyone :twisted:
