Jump in any time and have fun

I will if anyone asks me anything. I dont like typing when i have 1000-2000+ documents stored in my documents throughout my growing years that i can simply dig out for anyone with a question.
Far to stoned and lazy to be typing more than one paragraph as i am always smoking.

What's up people? I am having some issues with 2 of my plants, auto-blueberry and easyryder. I transplanted them a week ago and since the bottom leaves have begin to turn yellow and wilt. After transplanted I water\feed everyday as the roots are growing towards the new res. I am using hempy buckets, lucas formula (currently at 1/2 strength), 600w MH (about to switch to 600w hps), 75-80 F, 45%H, 20/4 lighting period. Before transplant feeding schedule was feed, skip, water, skip, water, skip, feed, ect. Here are some current pics, any other info can be found in my journal or I can answer on here.

I did some reading and know that yellowing of the bottom leaves is usually a nitrogen deficiency, could this be caused by only using 1/2 strength nutes? I did introduce nutes late to the ER and that's why the leaves look worse then the auto-blu (which is also a week younger).

it's probably not an N deficiency...it could just be normal(as long as it's not spreading extremely rapid up the plant), the older leaves tend to yellow and fall off as the plant progresses through it's life cycle...

Looks like a nute burn to me

while it is normal for the plant to drop leaves it is done with, it is not normal for that many leaves to yellow/die at that age of plant

agreed, looks to me like a N deficency, and then the leaves are degrading from foliar feeding.. def. way to early to be having that issue.. try to introduce some veg. nutes.. something light though, like ff grow big. see how it reacts after watering.. the last thing you wanna do is add nute burn to ur issues.. much harder to fix than a N def. I had the same thing happen to me at the beginning of my grow.. my advice is next time invest in some better soil. But add about 1/2 strength nutes.. then next watering go to 3/4ths if the problem doesnt look better. btw those bottom leaves are gone.. focus on new growthh.. sorry, just woke up or i could elaberate better..

btw stop foliar feeding it really doesnt help and can degrade leaves & attract bugs. IMO its really not worth it.. RM may disagree..
 
I'm a first time grower. I have setup a 5 x 5 room with a 600 watt MH. My girls are in soil and are 50 plus days from germination. They are on 16/8 lighting. I fimmed them at nodes 5 or 6 and producing many growth stems. I have been alternating nutrients every other watering. My next step is a flush in the next few days. I have 5 genetics in my 8 girls. All girls appear strong and healthy. The girls don't seem to be showing any signs of being ready to flower. I have read about little white hairs starting to grow at nodes.

I plan to keep the strongest 5 as mother's for cloning. I plan on letting the others flower. I have another 5 x 5 room I will use for flowering. I plan on a 1000 watt HPS and 12/12 lighting.

Here are my questions. When do you start flowering? Can I trick the girls into flowering and if so, how? In regard to the mothers, do I need to change thier lighting and nutrient requirements? If so, what is recommended?

These beautiful girls should become lovely mothers. I don't want to do anything that would hinder this.

Sorry, no pictures. I only have a iPhone for a camera. I understand that iPhone pictures also contain GPS coordinates. I really don't want that information known.

Thanks for any and all responses. Continuobrisa - "You can't see it, but you know it's there!"

you can flip them to 12/12 at any time to force flowering

feed veg nutes during the stretch for sure (first 2 to 3 weeks of flowering) I feed throughout using veg nutes every 3rd feeding

I have been studing up on BTUs and the amount of air required to disapite heat in a cabinet. I bought the following to use as INTAKE fans (Yeah I'm going to blow cool air into the cabinet). Hammond FT300A1BK 300CFM 3-Fan AC Fan Tray $55.

Once I put this fan in place the only exit for the Air will be through the 60 CFM exhaust fan, this unit is rated 300 CFM. Will my cabinet blow up? Will the air just back up behind the exhaust fan? Will it just make the exhaust fan perfom better?

Hey got your answer tried to ask a lot of people to get more info but i guess I was really talking to you thw whole time nice. I already tried to feed them a quick dose of grow big. I think i raised my ph over 7 what do you think would that cause the plant to lock out nut's?

Oh yeah one more quick question? Do I have to adjust my ph of my fox farm nuts or is it already adjusted. Because I have been trying to kepp the water balanced with the ph tester I bought one off those $100 ph tester but don't think I really know how to us it. I kept putting ph up in my water because I thought the Fox Farm nuts was too low which I may have been wrong? So their four I alway made my mix at 6.5 and it was already 6.5 now it must be over 7 because i alway raised the ph about 0.7 because I thought it was 5.9 which would make 6.5 reallu it must be 7.2 because my ph tester was wrong I think? I am crazy or maybe in the right path? I have been going crazy over think I do this to all my plants they always look the same 2 feet with tiny buds on them. They really should be 3 or 4 feet with big buds on them? I am a medical marijuana patient and really cant keep messing this up I am not even get 28 grams of one plant that not right. I am using a 1000 hortalux hps switchable Metal halid I have a ac running all day to keep my room 70 all the time Fox farm nuts, and my plants are afgan hindo kush a11 ever heard of that strain? I also have two 4'' and two 6'' blowing in and out with freash air all day. They have their own bedroom just look for some good advice. Thank you for all you help really appreciate it.

Check them for bugs or get a real close pic of the leafes both on top und under a leaf.
Just cut one of the dead leafes of to examine.
Is it spreading up the plant from the bottom ????.
