Hy you guys, I thought some of you should see this if you haven't already.. I messaged the company and asked what was used to make it and they told me that If I knew as much as I implied by commenting that they need to post that its either feminized or a cross. . Then I shouldn't have to ask the lineage and should already know it lol..

evil8 did the same exact thing. Might be the same people. There is no such thing as reg GG#4 seeds. Has to be a bx but they dont say what was used to make them. This is why no 1 should buy gg#4 seeds without knowing the facts. I asked them what was used to make them. I'm sure they will delete my question.

Yeah hammerhead that's true, good thing I never had the money to grab certain things when they came out, would've been an impulse buy lol..

After actually looking at their page, they claim to have MANY of the Clone only cuts in "Regular" seed form..

It's A good thing you asked them, they might feel more inclined to explain themselves to someone of your caliber and not me lol

no sir, never happened to me but I believe Dan and TC have had something similar happen but not quite the same, never seen the leaves just die like that, weird

:tiphat: Thanks so much for responding! This one looks like it's only going to lose these two branches. Last one I lost half the plant. It's really weird, the branches just wilt and die while the rest of the plant thrives and matures normally.

I've examined these buds under magnification and microscope and I don't see anything out of the ordinary so I suppose the branches would be OK for extraction. By the time I harvest the plant they are amber as they can be.

Someone else suggested fusarium in a PM and from what I've been able to read that is some evil shit, but I don't think that's the issue or it (theoretically) would have spread to other strains in my grow.

I'm taking a break for summer and am going to sterilize all my pots with potassium permanganate and then 27% hydrogen peroxide.

Not much should live through that regimen.

Why not just get new pots? I know there's a replacement cost but if the concern is that the pots are passing on some kind of infectious thing, unless you're working a really large number of pots or some large, expensive pots, it seems a reasonable way of eliminating the problem for sure

Fusarium is typically spread through the soil/soiless mix if memory serves. Beyond big ag applications I don't think it is really understood well in smaller grows.

I'm not really certain it is fusarium. It's mostly just a move to ease my mind, I will mix all new medium for the next grows - just don't want to run the risk of possibly perpetuating the problem via the containers.

I'm not a cropper and I have all the chemicals at hand to do this - way cheaper than sourcing and paying for all these new containers if I could even find them again. they are much sturdier and heavier than normal nursery pots and are perfect for me as I end up moving my plants quite a bit. Haven't seen them anywhere in my market for a couple years now.

Hey bro, I just saw the pics you posted up of the branches wilting.. IF you dont mind me asking, does this happen the day/day after you water/feed them after they where totally dry? Like dry to the point the leaves where slightly drooping?

I just ask because I've had that happen before.. If I was flushing and some Fan Leaves where quick to start yellowing but still very green, and I watered them the day after I usually would. ALL Slightly yellow leaves and even A couple light green ones would wilt by the end of the day and I'd have to pick em off.

dawn patrol,, looks like something is attacking the root zone ,, maybe root aphids?? and its only getting potions of the roots and thats why only sections of the planet are showing the wilt. looks like some mite aftermath in there too.. could be multiple variables giving u problems and thats why ur having a hard time narrowing it down to one thing...

I really wish they would just get at least one decent act at these affairs.


agree ...this is a small festy though & it's more about getting together then the actual music..hopefully a bright sunny weekend with lots of kind vibes ... i know i'll be doing my part 2 make that happen :)
 
one European habit i can't comprehend is the mixing tobacco with marijuana..

Hi ya Star!That comes from the fact that while in the 70´s you were smoking weed we smoked mainly morrocan hash,,hard to smoke without tobacco.My theory is that we got used to the mix of it,then we passed that bad habit when we started with weed,I ve smoked all over Europe,and beleave me 95% of the times someone passed me a joint,he had tobacco on it....it´s a curse:biggrin:

Great question and TBH the best answer I could give you is maybe?

I wish I could say that I pay that much attention or keep records that detailed. But I appreciate your response, it gives me something else to keep an eye on and watch for. :tiphat:

Root damage was one of the theories on the last run. I put a bamboo stake down through the soil close to the stem and someone mentioned root damage as the culprit.

One thing I feel pretty good about is the lack of spider mites in there. I have alternated essential oils and heat treatments in that space and think I may have beaten them (way to curse yourself dumbass :biggrin:) but now I'll probably have a full blown infestation by morning.

If you're seeing spotting or discoloration on the leaves that is residual from the final foliar feeding. As for root aphids.........:chin: there was a good dose of DE and neem seed meal in the mix.....

i just flipped one big glue plant in a 100+ gallon bed of organic soil under a 1kw bulb
she stretched right up into the bulb so i replaced it with a 600w HPS asap...

I never tried trimming the legs while in veg. Also must have done a lot of topping to get that dense, at that height.
