Shit I should stop being paranoid and switch back to tap. I'm so new...it seems like any time I run into a minor problem I automatically blame it on tap...probably 99.9% my own fault lol
After almost 9 years on the forums I'd say that's almost always the case, and that you may be the first person to ever realize/admit it.

I've seen pot thrive in soil that's almost pure clay... and seen it thrive in straight black gold. Obviously a light soil is way better though.

Premium soils use coco coir instead of bark, your local nursery will have it. They will make small talk, so if your stealth just be ready to talk about some other plant.

Well it looks like light burn and possibly a lack of nutrient...
And occams razer. It's not displaying any of the signs of lack of oxygen while is is displaying other signs...
But fuck it, drop some h2o2 on that bitch
In academia we referred to it as Occam's razor. I have rarely seen light burn and I have never seen it display thusly. Watering with 3% H2O2 can't hurt so why not? Are you serious.

i dont see any REASON to do it... but then again I didn't see any reason to RIP the plant out of its fabric pot.
Clearly many things are lost on me.

The only reason not to use tap is if your city uses Chloramine instead of Chlorine.
Cali is always having water issues , the current rains move lots of shit into the resources and coastline. Petroleum products , pesticides , med waste , naked bodies , pyrethrum ( I have access to at work ) , benzene , chloramine , hobo sweat, condom gravy and a whole list of shit. But .... my plants STILL THRIVE.

Unfortunately there are elements that will NEVER be fully removed. I water my grass , shrubs , wash my ass in it , make sun tea , koolaid , etc.


Tijuana water .... CODE BROWN !

Clearly, many things are lost on you when you diagnose this as light burn.

Meh looks pretty close to me. Add in nutrient deficiency an I think that's it.

But i dont know shit, these are cucumbers right?
H2o2 is amazballs probably cures aids an ish

Have you ever taken any chemistry? If so discuss nutrient deficiency in an anaerobic, or near anaerobic environment please.

Dang, it got kinda spicy in here. I don’t have any h202 at the moment. I’ll try the elixir of naked bodies, hobo sweat, and condom gravy from CaliTap for now.
Have you weighed your pot? You need to wait until it's 30% less weight than today. If you let it dry out you probably won't need H2O2 but it's a tool if you need it. Typically you use 3-5 grams for the size pot you are in. That's 1/2 cup in a gallon of your nutrient but let it dry out.

I'm still chuckling over BudzBuddha's reply. He got it. Essentially that bark is acidic and compacts then you add any over watering (anaerobic processes are quite acidic) and you are in a perfect storm of pH lockout. So you need to let her dry well and water sparingly. You are so close to done you may wish to fast dry a small bud and see if the high is where you want it.

I really hope OP puts h2o2 in the situation so we can see if it helps.
You remind me a lot of kingrow1 to be honest
You never answered about anaerobic processes and instead move to name calling. You entered this thread literally scolding the OP for not taking your past advice!

Why are you so threatened he simply wanted to know more about what was going on in his grow?

There are many ways to grow pot and there is always more to learn. I learned from Malt and Budz on this thread and I'm grateful for their contributions. It would have been more interesting if you had actually entered into the discussion instead of reacting. Hopefully you can do that next time.

PS @Kingrow1 may not agree with you on that LOL

I think it’s got another day yet! There’s some green coming back in a few of her leaves tho.

Which method is best to fast dry a small bud? Exciting :razz:

O2 exchanges at each watering unless:

Anything below an inch or so (on sides and top surface) seems to be very compact. It doesn't want to crumple/break. It's like i'm scratching at it more than breakin bits off. Any advice for this? I don't think I can re-amend aeration so do I just ride it out?

H202 for the win! and just relax.
