Whats wrong with my Low Ak-47's

[clockworkdavid82]

Hi guys,

This is my 3rd grow and I am usually using lowryder no2, never had a fault with that at all. I am using a 400 watt light, plagron bat mix, and biobizz nutes, but dont use the nutes until the last 4 weeks.

The plants are in day 34 and the leaves are drooping. The look healthy but slightly sad, and from what I have researched it is over watering, I'll attach the pics so you can see for yourself guys. It is really bothering me and I want to get to the bottom of it. Temp in the room is between 25c to 29 c, 75f to 79f.


Cheers, BigDaze

Hahahaha thanks for the confidence boost dude. I'll keep you informed of the progress with these little bitches, I got 4 little diesel ryders on the go as well just now.

I am trying to create a magic cycle of constant green. So the dark days of having legal trips in reality are gone.

how often do you water?

 

[clockworkdavid82]

Just for a note on the Lowryder no 2 strain, dynamite to grow, got about 4 1/2 oscars from 5 plants in 10 litre pots under a 400 watt light in 1 month and 28 days. Eassssssssy.

Less is more. If you know what I mean.

May Jah bless the Jointdoctor.

I am watering around about every 1 and a half days, which I think is to much. I am not using the nutes yet as the bat mix has all the goodness in it until the last 4, 5 weeks.

Gotta love them AF AK's. Maybe just give um a good dose of bottled water next time around. My AK's get nutes on weeks 3 thru 8 then straight water the final two weeks. I throw in a lil unsulfered molassas every other week as well. Other than the droopiness, they look good. every 1 -1 1/2 days for watering? wow, mine are lucky to get it twice a week. Slow down and let them get thirsty.

Cheers, dude,

I am going to make the little bitches grow for there water lol, I will not be hoping to water them again until Monday Morning as the light comes on. Has anyone found a difference in the light cycles? I am doing the 20 hours light, 4 dark, was thinking maybe 6 dark, thats what I used when growing the lowno2. Think it will matter? Although more light is more bud no?

Cheers,

I tinkered with different light cycles and found that 18/6 worked best for me.

Hi guys,

Woke up this morning and checked the bitches. They are looking a lot happier the leaves are not as droopy anymore and they seem to have got a little bit better. I shall keep an eye on there progress.

High Guys,

My plants are starting to not be droopy anymore, although some of the bottom fan leaves are starting to yellow, so I removed them, I shall be watering them tomorrow morning when the light comes on and I will be adding my nuts, although I am going to add as minimum amount of nutes as I can. A bonus though is I just got a half oscar of recon hydro from my friends homegrown crop. Yummy. Total head crazy thinking high.

Cheers,

How much do you yield from one plant?

 

[Phinxter]

are you seeing this droop all the time or only shortly after lights on ?
its common for the plants to sag a bit during lights out and spring back to life after the lights are on for a bit.
that or check your humidity. they dont look over watered as you typically see some yellowing with over watering as well as with nutrient defiency or nute burn.
they look great with the exception of some slight sag which like i said could be normal if its only after lights on or it may be due to RH issues

 

[clockworkdavid82]

Yo dude,

Lowryder no2 in 10 litre pot, roughly an oscar a plant, dry of course, or just under.

I have removed most of the yellowing fan leaves, the soil was bone dry today and Ive used a little nutrients and made sure the water runs out the bottom of the pot.

Does the plant bother much about the removal of fan leaves? It is now day 40 since seedling sprouted and was put into soil. I hope they will turn out ok and have a good yeild.

cheers
