Nutrient Lock ?

[Charbud]

Looking dark green there. When do you cut-back on nitrogen? It's getting pretty deep into flowering, so you might want to think about restricting the nitrogen, or flushing it out of the pot.
Doesn't look like major ph issue, but I see a few leaves that make me mention it.

Likely best to fill-out the troubleshooting form.

From seeds or clones? All the same strain? Have you grown this strain without incident before...?
If clones, how long had they been rooted before switching to 12/12, and how tall were they when you switched?

Hi Rusty, nice to see your still around ! They never had nitrogen because i flowered after 2 weeks of veg, only bloom feed at week 5 or week 3 of flower. I think it was nute lock..i feed them and all the run off goes into the tray which they sit in, they then drink it all up by the next day but i rekon some evaporates and leaves salts and buildup in the tray so when they are next fed the strength gets of the nutes gets even stronger. Didnt explain that too well but basically they drink their run off ! They are from seed, the worst being the papaya from nirvana which everyone says is shit so no suprise there to be honest. Never grown the strain before and they rooted for 2 - 2.5 weeks before flower, the roots were well developed because i repotted them and they were about 3 inches when i started flower.

Hiya Charbud, sorry to hear you are having problems m8. Get some more details posted up! Also, what medium did you go with this time round?

Hi mate, nice to see you ....well virtually. i chose soil again, i don't have time for coco for example there was a period i couldnt see my girls for 3 days and if i had coco they would be bone dry ! i did mix my soil with pertile this time round though ! Im currently growing, papaya, bubble cheese, lsd, strawberry haze, cream caramel... a ncie selection although the only one with any nice amount of bud is the cream caramel ! which ill post a pic of at the bottom of post. Cheers for your input mate

Hey Char, check out your roots, because when the soil gets cold the roots do too and it will stop your growth right now. It happen to me so i put a something under the pots and the growth started back in a few days. I also have put them in a box to try and keep the soil warm. Hell i wrapped my seeds in my electric blanket till they popped and now in a box with a light on 24/0 to keep the soil warm enough till i get my lights up.

Nice looking plant man:thumbsup:

Just a thought bro, good luck:rasta:

The cold was a problem but that was all solved with the heater about 2 weeks ago...maybe they are still suffering ? The pots are in trays on a camping mat so thats as warm as there guna get. Either way my problem lys with nutes or the temps. Cheers for checking in and reply to my email !!! :rastasmoke:

Hope this helps a bit with the girls diagnosis...they are looking better since the flush..cream caramels leaves still going brown so not sure about her but she is finishing in 3 weeks and is packing on weight...so maybe shes just finishing ?

Bubble cheese has purple leaves ? lower buds arent developig well because of the top canopy blocking light

Lsd is tall and known for shitty yield and genetics

Strawberry haze is known to be a bit gangly and low yielding so expected

Papaya is bullshit from nirvana...should have lisented to people on this forum about them !!!

Cream caramel smells earthy and will be my best yielder although in a brown state....
