1st grow Caramelicious and Freebies going through trouble

DudeLebbowski · Sep 20, 2010

Plenty of pictures for everyone. Drag mouse over the picture for a description
Introducing
A1- Caramelicious
B1- Random nug(biggest)
C1- Light green s]ativa(having troubles, topped)
D1- FAT leaf indica(youngest by 2 weeks)

A1- I know how hard it is believe.The Caramelicious is the oldest plant, about 2 1/2 months! Thats how much it shrunk(pruned dead leaves). Someone please tell me what the problem is... I think it is over fert but I'm not sure. Rootbound? I also think its a girl.

B1- My tallest, healthiest plant. I think it may be female. It has still been pruned for much of its bigger leaves. The bottom leaves are going through something funky, can someone diagnose it? Other than that, criticism welcomed...

C1- Poor light green sativa plant has been through troubles and has stuned growth because of pruned dead leaves and tissue to photosynthesize and shit. It got burned somewhere along the way. It is one of the oldest, and I think I see balls. It could be undeveloped foilage though. Will it live?

D1- My only plant that seems to be doing normal. It is the youngest by two weeks and has huge chubby leaves taking up the whole damn space. It is pretty young to flower, but time is of the essence. No problems for it except the edges of the leaf blades look like milk chocolate.

So.... Shit.

Can nobody explain what's going on?
I mean... That's why I went through hell and high water to get a working camera and a chord that connects to a laptop. Sheit

Iam not positive, but it looks like there is a little ph balance issue going on, maybe causing a lockout of somesort. iam also tempted to say some pics show nute burn, but iam not sure.

Thanks man. I'm glad for some accurate feedback finally!

KlosetKing · Sep 22, 2010

no problem, but dont take it as a 100% diagnosis, i VERY EASILY could be wrong, i am by means no pro. thats just what comes to MY mind ;D

Yeaa they are recovering and the flowering is sending them sky high! Everything seems to be fine now that I have ph meters

It seems B1 has sexed. They look like frozen cumshots. I'm fetching the rooting compound since its only 5 bucks. sheit.
I need really good cloning information and references if anyone is out there

DudeLebbowski · Sep 24, 2010

Today is a GOOD day!
I'd like to give everyone my previous perspective to male/female ratios before I say the good news.
I read a journal where this dude had all these good things and a thousand dollar investment and ended up with 80% males! It had me worried.

ALL the plants sexed.
A1-Caramelicious is Female, yellowing top
B1-Random is Female, yellowing top
C1-Sativa is a hermie! I'm trying to recollect what stress it went through(joke haha). Ever since its health declined I intended for a hermie.
D1-Indica is a female! 3/4 Females! 75%! I 'gasmed my pants when I saw the yellow tops.

So not only will I be breeding a 2/3 sativa 1/3 indica, they will be feminized seeds!

The growing is unbelievable. I had a dream that they grew through my roof. Turns out, they grew inches to the point where I had to move my lights.
Thankfully most CFL's put out no heat.
Another 1 1/2 months untll my first grow is complete.

If anyone is out there in the spacey abyss, I am still needing of advice and explanations to what happened. There is goddamn pictures all over the place, and I thought people on this forum would enjoy helping.

whats the word on your white russian dude? oh sorry i meen your plants are they getting better?

Alito1992 · Sep 29, 2010

my plant whent through the simmiler type of thing and i was told i was over watering and i cut back and they started to thrive. just my two cents

DudeLebbowski · Sep 29, 2010

The only problem now is the tips of the leaves are brown and curled. Other than that, I took about 10 clones and build their own little environment. The mother's are growing so tall I keep having to raise the lights. But leaves are still curling I need to solve that.

A little update for my little nugz
The C1 sativa got kicked out because its a male. It is now loving the beautiful outside weather we have and I am maintaining hope that I could harvest pollen.
The caramelicious and b1 seem like they are slow flowering. There are many pistils but nothing else after 3+ weeks of flowering.
The Indica actually shot up when they got winterized and it is developing very very fast. I knew indicas flowered quick but daym

I also think outside the box:
My only chem ferts are high in nitrogen and low in phosphorus which is bad for flowering.
I put a small amount of fish food in the gallons, and I read what they were composed up(nothing harmful to plants). They have nutes and beneficial matter that the soil can decompose into the friendly elements.
I have hidden the smell, just in case, by using dryer sheets next to a hot lamp, and this static electricity tactic I do with this thing. It is just an experiment.
So far everything is perfect except the slow flowering on the caramelicious and the other one.

I have a clones question.
What foilage signs are given off when they root? Do the top leaves turn light greenish?

a good sign is that the foliage hasnt drooped, and if it does droop only for new leaves to grow.. they will stay very green etc. just all around healthy looking really.. got to keep them humid and wait

Sweet. I used powder hormone and I covered the bottom inch and put it all in the soil. I hope at least 50% survive. They have 1 blue 23 wt cfl running them at 18 hours.
I watered the babies last night with the distilled gallon water(added small amount of fish food). PH was basic so I used lemon. It was tripping me out because my shitty ph papers, the ones that change colors, stayed the same basic color until I ran out of lime. I resorted to apple cider vinegar as a substitute.
I then had to, fucking, change the ph again because I added too much vinegar. I added baking soda and waited.
But hey- when I watered them there were bubbling sounds like when I would use H202. The soil had air holes in it. Maybe they got a dose of CO2?

They actually seemed to love the hell out of it

DudeLebbowski · Oct 8, 2010

I switch the lighting yesterday and re-bleached the flood just incase. I saw some flies flying around and I got paranoid. They left quicker than Sarah Palin resigned.
Now they are utilizing the most light per square foot than they ever did.
D1 Indica, fucking, LST'ed herself and now she looks like the, fucking, Leaning Tower of Piza she's got so much heavy bud on her. It's at a great angle, the lower branches and main stem are getting so much light, and the canopy basically has nothing under it but air.
And the B1 and Caramelicious are catching up in the flowering. I don't care how long they take, because I have the Indica to tie me down.
