Hi guys,
I usually get away with searching in these forums for what I need but this time I would really benefit from the experience and advice from some of the most advanced growers in here.
The thing is, I popped an OG Kush and a Moby Dick about two months ago, and the MD is now burned pretty bad. I used perlite, sphagnum, and hummus as a base soil, and added to that organic fertilizer for tomatoes, seaweed extract, lime, two different types of guano and some granite sand I found which I thought could be a good substitute for rock dust. I made the MD's soil just a little hotter because I thought since it has a slightly longer flowering period it would benefit from the extra nutes. At first the MD grew like a monster, considerably faster than the OG but then the tips started to burn and when we flipped to 12/12 about a week ago it started to get very bad. A couple of days ago we took off the scrog net we had installed a couple of weeks back (which was a huge PITA, but not impossible) and flushed the shit out of the MD, but since it's gotten worse I'm guessing that flushing is not really that useful with slow release nutrients, which makes sense. So, my question is, knowing that I have already been growing these plants for more than two months, which of the following do you think is my best option?
-Keep them as they are, keep training them while they stretch and leave them alone when they cover the whole net, hoping that the MD survives and produces something (this is what I'm leaning towards)
-Revert back to veg, kill the MD and transplant the OG to a bigger pot (they are in 11L now) so that she can fill the whole cabinet (60cmx60cm or 2ftx2ft) by herself (I don't like the idea of waiting a month for them to revert back to veg and then add another month for the og to grow more, nor do I like the idea of killing the MD)
Either way, I took clones of both, which are hopefully rooting right now (first time I take clones and all I used was aloe vera and seaweed extract as the rooting comoound) and my plan is to take a few more during flowering to give monster cropping a try. Anyway I'll be making bonsai moms and doing SOG for the next run so I'm not that worried about production right now but it's just so sad to see these beautiful ladies suffer so much.
Thanks in advance for the help, and I'll try to post pictures as soon as I can. Oh and by the way I'm writing this from a mobile phone so sorry if it's full of mistakes.
