its been a week since i havn't watered. some of the lower leaves started to die out and it still in good shape. I was able to save it. Its in a 5 gallon pot and i flushed it with 5 gal today.

Its 7 1/2 weeks in veg and ready to flower. I"m concidering to let it veg for a few more weeks to relax from the intense stress i just put on it and also i need to tie it down some more. i use G.B, B.B. liquid karma, Super Thrive. for veg. i only used the BB because i was almost ready to flower.

question:
will that amount of stress will be able for it to turn hermie?

should i feed with nutes the following day?

p.s i also used attain fogger 2oz, i think it helped kill my plants but i'll see how it does in the morning.

Maybe I am mistaken, but I was under the impression that keeping the plants alive is the main objective of growing. :smokin:

A 5 gallon pot, by the 3:1 method would be getting flushed with 15 gallons.

That 5 gallon quasi-flush...likely just got things primed for another 10 gallons to be poured over them. But being as ya stopped at 5, theres likely a layer of unmentionables that the roots would like to be rid of.

Me, I flush using the 3:1 method...I do it with Clearex to fascilitate the breakdown and flushing of those unmentionables...then allow enough days to pass for the soil to dry down pretty good before the 2 times I give'm a drink with just water--no nutes...just water. Then back to feeding as normal till the next flush.

Yo...chillero


What didn't get answered? That bit about stress'n a plant and wondering how far it can be pushed till it shows balls? That depends on YOUR grow envinronment and THAT plant's response to it's surroundings. In other words...the plant would be the one to answer your question.

I already suggested that you let it dry down, do a complete flush, and then no nutes for a couple more waterings.

But thats just me and my response to the plant's responses to my responses to the plant's to the...yea.
