Do you have any dolomite lime in your soil mix BOP? Sounds like that peat content is making the mix too acidic IMO...

Re: Internode issues, if your in flower, despite what others may tell you, or not, kill the superthrive. My experience with it has been fantastic with veg/transition but tends to promote stretch in flower ESPECIALLY with sativa varieties. I cut it out this time and my girls have much tighter nodes. It's a great product though even though it's intructions BLOW. PS this product CAN be used through all stages of growth for things like hot peppers and other veggies with AWESOME results.

Your plants look EXACTLY like the widows I started from seed (BCBD). I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say mine were just shitty genetics or at least way to finicky of a variety for my taste.lol! I like easy. <presses easy button in an attempt to fix your plants>

I was able to green mine however with added Potassium and a smidge more N.
But, inline with what these MUCH more experienced growers are saying above, Definitely flush and dry if you have the time, mine looked better after giving them nothing so perhaps overfeeding could be the issue. 2c.

Dolomite Lime??

Dolomite Lime??

I have been unable to locate dolimite lime as of yet. I like in colder climate, and most garden shps are closed for the season. Finding quality growing stuff is tough, or a long drive.

This brings up a question I had however - I have found garden lime. Is this the same thing? I've read that it is, I've also read that it isnt. It is pelletized organic garden lime, according to the bag. I have begun adding it at a rate of one tlbs per gallon of soil (I know folks say to use two, but I use grow mix, which says it has calcium added already)

I cannot remember if the plant has lime in the medium right now. My record keeping was bad at the beginning, so I'm not positive. I am leaning towards no. Any way to add or correct this now?

Garden Lime is a Dolomite lime but needs to be ground up in a Coffee Grinder so it will work faster. If left in a pellet form, it will not work fast enough to do you any good.

:pointlaug (that's me on the left)

I was just saying In my case, that the particular stock I received came from a grower of 20+ years and he too had issues with these particular widow beans. Also the sweet tooth they snagged this time around was all over the place as far as consistency and appearence (purchased same time. But anyway
best of luck man, hope you can turn it around :wave:
