PRX yes, has nitrogen issue, but if you got more than 2 weeks of flowering time left; which it looks like you do, I would give them 1 or 2 doses of nitrogen to ease them over and after that do not give them anymore.... give them 1/2 the reccomnded dosage like 1/2 teaspoon per gallon of water....... 2.5 ml per 4 liters of water.......


After that let them yellow.. they are supossed to before harvest, for one it's natrual and 2nd you know the plant is using it's stored nutrients so a week or 2 before harvest use plain water and let your plants use the stored nutrients up... much better smoke for ya when you flush them out with plain water and let the plant natrualy use it's nutrients up.

Damn gone, you got to do something I did not get a chance to do when I Was growing..... grow a color changing strain; they are so beautiful when they change colors like that..........

Make me think of fall everytime I see one of those.......

Would be good to feed it with canna terra grow (NPK 3-1-4)? 2ml per 4 liters water

 

[MynameStitch]

What does the back of the bottle call for though? With Canna you can use there directions, but you want to use half of what they recommend since you are in flowering.

So if it says use 5 ml per 4 liters of water, then yes you would want to use 2 ml per 4 liters of water.

Thanks MynameStitch, they sure do look beautiful the colors, sure resembles the colors of fall as you say. Feel for you that you didn't get to grow some yourself before the coppers ruined growing for you. I just hope the smoke will be ok even though their flowering didn't go quite as planned.

Well nothing much to add other than HARVEST, the white satins could maybe have used some more time, but most of the hashberrys are done I think, not much fresh pistils, so they are all coming down, cause I can't really harvest only some of them because I have to use the closet to dry them in. So just hope that it won't get too humid in there when drying.

Auto AK47 sick plant and a little LR#2

Auto AK47 sick plant and a little LR#2

I have looked through the pictures in Stitches guide and I think I have Calcium def.. But just wanted to check on here to see what you guys think.







Full Spectrum (Red + Blue), Cool Ruining 105w
Ocean Forest and Perlite 4/1
only gave nutrients one time and it was a weak strength of Flora Nova One-Part Plant Food 7-4-10

You may not to be able to see that clearly but they have these little white dots, on the leaves, I think they might just need some nutrients....
Thanx for any help in advance

 

[MynameStitch]

White dots on the leaves can be a sign of a mite infestation...... check the underside of the leaves and do not feed them anything yet the mixture is plenty strong for them for at least another week or 2.....
I can't tell from the pics but I see no calcium deficiency; plants that size normally do not get them unless you are using RO water with no calcium suppliments.

I can;t tell if that is a leaf mutation or something else, the pics are way to small; can you get a few more of them?

 

[haze12421]

Thanx Stitch, I'll take some pics with a good camera tonight and post them on here when i get home from work.

 

[MynameStitch]

No problem.

Hi all..

How I'm a few days from harvest and have a little problem with thrips. Its only a small problem, nothing thats affecting the harvest..

But when I harvest, how long must I wait till I'm sure that all thrips ad thrip-eggs have died??

thanks..

kenned

 

[MynameStitch]

That is one question I can't answer there; you will have to ask someone else that question...
sorry about that.......

 

[timmy thc]

thanks for all the advice it is better explained here than in the medicinal growers bible by cervantes

 

[DiscoDuck]

Merry Christmas to Stitch and all!

 

[MynameStitch]

Awww thanks DIsco a very merry x-mas to you too bro!! Hope you have a good holiday season and a happy new year!

 

[DiscoDuck]

How's it goin' Stitch? Long time no speakie. About a month or so ago, you helped me out with a couple of plants that I'd overfed with ph problems to boot.

I'm growing in soil and my ph was dropping to around 6.0. I managed to get the ph under control (around 6.5 to 6.8) and I now feed every other watering while mixing my nutes from 1/3 to 1/2 strength.

Here's one of the plants at 63 days....LOL....it's devoid of fans and sugar leaves:







The pics are pretty bad and the plant probably looks like it's past harvest, most of the pistols are turning.

The trichs are still clear though. I thought about letting this one get closer to 70 days but I'm not sure it'll make it, (it's bag seed and I don't know the specific flower time.)

What do you think I should do?

 

[MynameStitch]

Damn dude, I don't know if it will ever finish out with all the fan leaves missing now, I thought you got it under control?

This is a tough one, cause I don't know about this one, well with the fan leaves missing and the buds no way to get much food from they are going to finish out a lot slower...... I would give it 10 more days and see what colors they change too......
The trichs on the smaller leaves, can you check them with a microscope?

 

[DiscoDuck]

I've got a 10x glass for now. If I look at the trichs from the side (profile) I can tell their still clear. I let the plant get too tall for the grow box it is in. The tops of the plant are six or seven inches away from a 150w HPS with a cheap reflector. Temps run about mid eighties with the lamp on and mid seventies when off. I think the combination of hot temps in the box combined with hot spots from the reflector are too much for this girl. I'll wait a few days and hope for the best.

I just bought a new grow box, a big ass fan and a cool tube. I'm gonna LST for the most part and then scrog down the road if and when I get things dialed in better.

 

[MynameStitch]

Ahh I see, ya that would do it alright. I would use a 20-30 X microscope; you get a better view of the heads, I used a smaller one and got problems with them looking all messed up, I could not tell from a clear to acloudy unless I had a 20X+ one.

OO, it's always a good feeling when ya get something new for your grow, even though you don't play with it, you know it's going to somehow may your grow better

 

[DiscoDuck]

You have a good point, my glass may be too weak to see the color. I'll see if I can pick up something with 30x mag.

 

[DiscoDuck]

Hi Stitch, check out my ghetto cool tube and my new grow box!






I still have to attach the top. That ragged lookin' female got the chop today. I got a little worried that it would continue to regress if I let her linger.

Anywho, heat is a thing of the past. I know I won't get the lumens with that reflector on the outside of the glass. Once I get the cabinet weather stripped ans sealed I'll get good negative air in the box. The improved circulation will probably lower the temps even more.

 

[MynameStitch]

Dude, that is bad ass dude, who cares if it's ghetto or not, it works and it does the job
Where did you get the idea to make it like that? Never seen one like that before.

Sounds good, more air better plants= happier plants
I like the way you got your box setup; did ya build it?
