I need to correct myself 450ppm if that.. 10Ml GH bloom and 5 ml GH micro with a tny bit of biostrath and some GWS mycronaize...

http://www.bio-strath.co.nz/index.php?dsp=about

that shit is like surperthrive on steroids . only need a ml or 2 per gal

i have a 3 stage water cycle..
1: nutes 10ml bloom/5ml micro/2 ml bio strath Myconaize 1 ml cal mag ph to 5.8
2: 2ml biostrath 1/8tsp muconaize/ph 5.8
3: just water ph.5.8

it seems to cycle it enough to keep the salts down. and yet keep the bio active stuff alive

I will be switching to maxi bloom, botanicare pure tea and kool bloom.. I do have some liquid GH nutes to keep me going till my shipment gets here.

on that note the 7G/gal will be a bit too strong for my plants so what would the raito be to keep in line with the 5/10 ratio?.. im gonna guess 5g/gal, but i might do 4g's per gal to offset the puretea and the kool bloom.. which ill only do 1/4tsp per gal kool bloom and like 2ml tea.. i might also go to epsom salt for the cal mag.

I dont really want to post pics I feel like such a stupid newb. I fucked em over and eagle clawed the shit outta them.. way way to many nutes even at 450ppm.. i forgot that the shit soil I mixed with the coco coir has slow release nutes i guess these autos dont really eat fuck all. even at lucas method of 5/10 its still way to much.. they are still budding away but they look pretty hurting.. i did flush em out and gonna let them eat what nutes are left... I guess since my maxi bloom came in the next feeding ill do (which will be after one more run of RO water and 1/2 gram of epsom salts per gal)..

ill dumb it down to 3Gs maxi 2ml pure tea .5ml biostrath 1/2 gram of epsom salts.. ill check PPM and see what it gives me. im probably gonna drop it to 370 and see if it gets any worse

Dude don't feel like the Lone Ranger. I have fucked up a lady or two by burning em with nutes. missing the waterering /feeding, fucked up ph meter, lighting too close, and I'm sure more is to come. I figure it's all part of the journey... Ya gotta keep swinging...;)

its been years since ive fuck up a set of plants as royally as I have.. ill take pics later tonight to show you the horror..yeah my ph meter is fucked i need to find the stupid little screw driver it has to set it. I know my tap ph is 8.0..and when i run it through ro..it comes out at 4.8..really odd i know..for now im going oldskool and using the GH ph liquid. it seems to be the best option. of course not right on point but a good idea of where the water sits. so hopefully I can nurse it back to health. im not sure if marijuana can gain colour back.. i sure hope so cause 40 of the leaves have spots or are yellow and tips down.. im pretty sure a combo of shitty ph meter with over nutes..

she should make it.. in my newb days i would of been proud of that :)
it might take a few days for her to bounce back but buds dont seem to be damaged, im going to pull up a seat and watch the recovery, with thoes rusty leaves tuck them away rather than cutting to avoid stress, but im sure you know what ur upto.

im far from my newb days.. im kinda new to autos a little at least inside. ive been growing weed for almost 10 years now..though it seems like these autos dont like nutes at all.. hopefully 300ppm is enough to let them start growing again with out burning them more.

the promix is precharged isnt it ? did you use miracle gro perlite ? because it is not inert .... most autos are really light feeders till mid flower and some not even then .....

its the promix potting soil. but i mixed it 40/60 coco/ perlite is natures best brand. ..hoping that they would eat up the slow release shit by the time they started really budding/vegging.. i only added nutes after I noticed a large growth spert.

well since my plan didnt work out for my next grow im going to just use perlite and coco coir...i guess i was trying to out smart the soil. or what i could do since i still have a seedling in what was left of the soil mix.. ill try not feeding it anything but waster until its mid flower...or looks hungry.. then just give it light nutes..

Updates.. I had to cut em down early...a about a week early.. they jusyt kept dying.. i guess the nutes were too much...
on the other hand I did start two other ones about 5 weeks ago.. and even though the younger ones are in the same soil they same to be doing fine.. and I do have one old plant still going but they yield has suffered from leaf burn.. i just feed the young ones at 270ppm to start and this was at 5 weeks in. fed em yesterday and they drooped a little and went back up to snuff.. pics will be soon

i got about 1 oz per plant and they were cut one week too early at least.. but the leafs were dead and the buds were 75% brown hairs the trichs were mostly white some clear and maybe a couple amber.. so it had a week for sure to go..ohh well the second batch seem to be doing fine.. seems like two phenos are dominant..tall lanky fuckers and short fat fuckers...i guess they couldn't get it to stabilize between the two phenos..hence why its a "limited" strain..this out of 8 seeds ive popped so far.. i did an outdoor grow and it did wonders up here harvested about 3 weeks ago.. about 3.5 oz off each plant.. that's with 18 to 20 hours of straight sunlight..(live way up north) near Alaska ..and they were still kinda small.. there very indica.. the lanky ones have long skinny buds and the short fuckers have very dense little nugs...i can see what they were trying to get out of both..but it didnt work out well.. i did get one pheno that was 2 topped..kinda weird.. little fucker only made 2 ozs from both tops..but my god it was white with THC...they need to put the title as "special" cause you really get some odd ones..

this is with the same light soil and nutes between the 8 of em ive done.. other that the outdoor ones where in organic compost as well as having lucas method light like 3/6 1tsp cal mag per gal with 3 ml pure blend tea and myco stuff..

the indoor ones that failed where promix ultimate (slow realse nutes..i know..) potting soil. mixed 30/70 with coco.. tried to offset the nutes) but the first time i gave the plants a 450ppm dose at 4.5 weeks from seed.. they got nute burnt.. and never recovered fully... on the iother hand I have some that are 5 weeks old and doing just fine in the same 30/70 mix and i just fed them a 275pmm 2ml/4ml micro bloom with 2 ml pure blend tea and 1/2 tsp of epsom salts.. they seem to be doing just fine nice and green and getting hairy

I don't think they spend too much time stabilizing the limited editions. I'm guessing the short fat one is sour crack dominant and the tall lanky one is green crack dominant. My sour crack had rock hard thick nugs. I think their green crack is still in development. The sour crack on its own seems to be stabile. I just ordered some tyrones now you have me worried lol. I also ordered a couple different limited editions. Good to hear your newer ones are doing fine. Post some pics when you have the time.

HG i HAVE 3, 2 Fast 2 Vast, Freeze Berry and Cash Crop, all 3 in 3 gal coco home made air pots from Wal Mart bags. I have fed them daily, put them in rockwool cubes with 3" tap roots and leaves out of the seed case. They were small for quite a while. They are at 33 days I think and the 2 Fast is showing her tits , hopefully the other 2 will shortly. I grow in coco, this feeding everyday is something I found out about on YouTube and it seems to work for coco. this is mt 3rd grow on this method.
