you have some good looking girls there. at that power level I curious as to why you chose CFLs instead of T5s or HID lights. think your going to have some potent good tasting smoke there

I'd probably say it's more due to ignorance on my part than anything else haha. Thanks for the kind words though, kind of wish I went for more than one plant under the 300w but there's always next time...
 
Very nice brother PepperJack!Your plant plant looks real nice and healthy,great job.:clap:

What kind of soil are you using?

The soil was donated from a friend along with the pot, it's just regular back garden soil as far as i'm aware.

I've bought a bunch of cannaterra soil for my next plant, see how it fairs!
 
Folks!

I've noticed a bit of browning on the very top, basically one leaf per 'cola' (if you will) has one leaf that's gone brown as shit. I'm not really giving it any nutrients, feeding is water & occasional molasses. Any thoughts what could be causing this? Light is a good 4/5" from the tops but the temps are getting a bit chilly during the night.

Could be the start of a calcium deficiency. Just weird that it is localized to a particular area on each cola. I do however, see that some of your leaf veins are turning slightly yellow, with the leaf a little lighter green than usual.. If you have NOT fed it in a little while, give it a light feed of calcium-magnesium. give it a couple days, check see how it has reacted to it. Calcium problems will come very quickly so keep a very close eye on it. Just know once you recover it, those leaves won't repair themselves. Growth come to a slow?
 
I'll see how it reacts to a lil bit o' calmag, i've been going au naturale except for some molasses so itll probably welcome it with open arms.

Bud development has slowed a tad but still showing progress.

Will post back in a couple days with any new developments, cheers for the advice CC
 
Just read your earlier post saying the soil was just some generic backyard soil? What the NPK on that? If it is really low then your soil is prob stripped of

Anytime man. :) I try to help who i can with what i know. hope it all goes well. Yeah if you been mainly water and molasses than the calmag won't hurt it a bit. they love calmag. Just make sure you keep your PH leveled or you will lock out some nutes. Anything below 6 your micros can lock out. Calcium is pretty prone to that.
How often and how much molasses you giving?
 
No idea on the NPK of the soil unfortunately - kind of went into this grow cold with what I had, wasnt expecting it to take off like it did haha.

Sweet well i'll give it a little taster of calmag tonight and see how she fairs!

The molasses is every 2nd or 3rd feed, pretty much just dipping a tablespoon into it to get a nice coating on the tip then disolving it in some room-temp water.

The show goes on!
 
got to love blind grows! They are fun, but stressful in a heartbeat. That's what i would do brother. See how she takes it. Don't so much watch the leaves already affected but watch new growth for changes and the very oldest growth for changes. (obviously dont ignore your bad leaves though ) I think you will be fine. overall their healthy looking
