Hello all, this is my second grow(first went well). Im in my 4th week of flowering and some of the bottom fan leaves are turning yellow if anyone can help. im using 400w hps,250w cfl & vitalink bloom 2/2/4. i also think buds are a little on the small side,all comments welcome :thumbsup:
Be lookin alright to me there pilgrem if be anythin I could say is that maybe in the begginin yur lights be a bit far away thus the stretch and the stretch be causin yu airy buds in the end I be figurn. Other then that the plants them selves be lookin happy I would just maybe add some big bloom nutes a little at a time and some good ol molasses for a couple waterns and see what she might be doin. She might just surprise yu and pack on some buddage fur ya. Hope all works out fur yu and yur crop pilgrem good luck to ya!Quote:

you look alright. you might look into additives(please not superthrive, if i see another thread on that ill shoot my foot). build yourself a nutrient program. this will take some studying and trial and error since we are not there with you it can at times be a bit of a guess. just be vigilant. they look a little tall for your wattage, also.Quote:

start with the product line your using and see what kind of porducts they have. w.vitalink.eu looks like they have a full line up and even feeding schedules(although use half what they say).Quote:

Keep in mind that the effective (usable) light from your 400w bulb only extends about 3 feet maximum. Including the distance from the light to the tops of your plants, should leave you with about 18-24 inches of effective light. (the botom 12 inches of a 3 foot plant won't be getting enough light) No additives will correct this situation.
I would however recommend that you start giving a source of calcium pretty soon. I recommend 1 teaspoon per gallon of unsulphered molasses per gallon of properly ph'd water...once a week. Molasses is a cheap and very effective replacement for stuff like CalMag Plus, Sweet, most Carbo-Load products.
