Well in short ive totally messed it up. Im using biobiz nutes, three different products, grow, bloom, plant food.

Basically to use them correctly you dose 1ml/l with the grow product and progresively increase the other 2 from 1ml/l to 5ml/l over 6 weeks.

Dont ask how but Ive mixed the grow with the bloom. in essense giving them 14ml/l extra grow product over the flower period and a deficiency of the same in the bloom product.

Being my first time grow i thought everything was going fine (didnt spot a small spidermite problem), but in all plants look healthy and flowered well.

A couple of rusted spots were probably my warning, but being a total n00b i didnt realise.

a coulpe of weeks off harvest i stoped the feed to induce leeching, its not happening...

will this mean my harvest will have a sickly sweet taste to it letf behind from the feed?

is there any way to do an "emergency flush" quickly?

Im now thinking i might have f**ked it up and it aint going to as good as it should. Better luck next time is all i can say.

Any help from you lot would be great specially if it solves my little problem.

Dude, it wasn't the best, ideal way, but you've got some serious buds... Just chalk it up to experience,... better prepared for the next time. ;)

I guess...

Best,

Well ive flushed, flushed and flushed some more, i must ave put 20ltrs through each plant :stoned: . Keept going until the water ran clear. So fingers crossed,

they look ready to me so im hoping for lots of yellow leaves 2moz wen i check on them, and then out come the sheers. :)

Litterally ad to wedge the big pots in the toilet seat and pour gallons of water over them.

It was quite funny, looked like i was growing weed out of the toilet.

NEways cheers for the help.

A flush should be fine - they dont look quite ready yet though.

the rust spots on the edges are fine - the leaves normally start to deteriate near the end of flowering. - how many weeks have they been in flower now?

Do you have a 300x zoom lens at all? By looking at the trichome heads you can see weather they are clear/cloudy/amber. The best time to harvest is when the majority are clear with around 30% amber.

Also feed the plant nothing but water for the final 2 weeks of its life + nothing in the final 7 days - flush then cut + hang to dry!

P.S. That is guna be a nice smoke! - lots of resin on them buds!

do you mean no water, they've been on water for 2 weeks, then flushed with loadsa water (cozof the overdose) so they wont need any more i imagine.

i keep looking at the trichomes with a microscope, there mainly cloudy at the min.

here's a pic of them at day 62

thanks for the reasuring comments
