she is messed up... baaaad... root rot started it all and then she had way too high of PPMs and messed up pH as a result of the rot and so I H2O2 bathed and cut away alot of the roots and put her into some plain lucas formula pHed right then the pH got fucked again (?) and now its fixed and she has perked up again but not before losing the majority of her fan leaves and branches (K def > brittle weak branches > lots broke so I removed them). Basically I fucked up big time by using FloraNova brand nutrients in DWC because they are not pH balanced for DWC (balanced for soil) and the organic poo crap made my roots rot! Mistakes, mistakes, at least I now know now to mess with the organic hydros unless its BC Nutrients (that stuff worked great).

main problem was I was lazy about changing her up hopin she'd recover from a minimal change eventually I just had to change reservoirs completely to reset and tore a lot of nasty rootage away (nasty!)

have girls vegging that could be put into the area if these are harvested early... just unsure of how much bud bulking she will do with no fan leaves and half her branches missing... maybe a little bit so I guess I should give her 2-4 weeks. going to have to keep the light on for her alone once the other one is finished but she has not finished the bulk of her flowering... the other one has 0-10 days to go (45-55 days) from the breeder but probably good to let go an extra 10 days? I haven't started flushing her yet and shes at 45 days of 12/12 now.

It always sucks when I see all these major problems happening to people when there in flowering. A month and a half into flowering man as far as yield your fucked. They'll prolly be really resinous buds though...so you got that heh. Next time you mess up try to in veg xP. Good Luck man seriously.

problems started about 3 weeks in flowering. at thanksgiving break there was root rot before I left town for break but then forgot to deal with it when I got back so just carried on as usual and then about a week or two later realized she wasn't growing and there were major issues so started trying to fix it and failing for a week or two and finally she looks good again but really she looks terrible... but healthy just terrible and only surviving because she can.

so she is basically in her 4th week of flowering it seems but really she in her 6th or 7th.


at least I learned 3 very important things.
1: Organics = root rot sucks
2: Low end DWC pH for recovering girl = 5.8 (not 5.3 >.<)
3: High pH = plant starts eating its own leaves unexpectedly.
