Tangerine Dream, Red Cherry Berry & Cream Caramel - CFL Grow

[Charbud]

Well yellowing is generally a sign of N deficiency, I would give them a little of that to sustain them until you get your nutes.

was supposed to be here today but its not so will do that. If there aren't sufficient nutrients in the soil does the plant use its leaves as food ? and tht can be another cause of yellowing other than n def ?

For what its worth I use the Canna terra line of nutes and as a first timer found them very good - not that I have any comparison lol. I began with the vega and continued with that right through until the girls started showing flowers (at Canna's recommendation). Then switched to terra flores (comes as one bottle) used with Cannazym. Later on I added in the PK13/14 that is also part of their line. Maybe it was partly my strain or the extra couple of weeks with the vege nutes but I had virtually nul yellowing (a touch of light bleaching) and its only now into their first week of flush that the bottom fans are starting to yellow off and drop.
I didn't use the Boost though, just stuck with molasses.
All the best Charbud with your girls - they're looking good

Cheers for that. I've got my flores coming tomorrow so hopefully they stay green from then on like yours :smokin:

Someone correct the nube (me) if he's wrong , but can't you get a nitrogen deficiency just because your ph is off? I hadn't heard ph mentioned so I'm probably missing it somewhere.

2 and half weeks through flower

Terra flores came and stopped yellowing but soil had some type of build up as the ph was coming out +0.5. Flushed them all and they are ok

Still some browning and yellowing leaves - cant figure out why as doesnt look or feel like nutrient burn

These weird dots on some leaves - not sure either

That aside they are still budding - bit of a slow start but they are o k .

Nice one for updating m8. Glad you got your nutes now, hopefully it will all be plain sailing from now on.

Have you added the extra 125w cfl into the grow room yet? You are going to need it, with all those plants.

As for the the second pic of dots/yellowing of leaves, I'm not 100% sure but I think that this is caused by over watering, is it on the old fans near the bottom of the plant? How often are you watering btw?

Fuking jarring when you write out a reply - post - then things timed out and all goes ....

anyway - i have 2 250ws in there but you cant see the other one as i lift it out of the shot for pictures. Hasnt got a reflector on it though so thats why the girls at the front are stretching more. Im going to try squeeze it in today..

I wouldnt think that i over water em. I water every day, because they are in small pots. Sometimes there not completely dry so i just top them up a little bit because if i leave them till the next day they will be really wilted because they will have been in the heat all day with no drink then lights on at dark.

It its the older fan leaves but its been creeping up the plants and is around the 3rd node now. The yellow one with the browning on the end was really witled the otherday then the next day was complelty dryed up and crisp - ? dont know if that could help with a diagnosis

Fans arent pointing at the bottom of the plants or directly at them - point it at the bulbs..

might have to sacrifice a couple and put the others into bigger pots ?

Copy and paste is your friend.

Not sure mate, I don't know what the problem is. I had the same kind of damage as in pic 2 on a plant I have in veg, I eased up on the watering and the leaves returned to normal, but your prob must be something else.

I wouldn't bother changing the pots, Hopefully I will have a pic for you later, that will convince you.

I had to take the pic with my webcam so it is pretty crap. The buds are a really nice colour with lots of orange hairs, this girl is 24" tall and 8 weeks 2 days old, I had to pull her out early to make room for a younger slimmer girl. This pic was taken just after I stripped off all the big leaves and before I started trimming.

she does look real nice. buds right down to the bottom of the plant, how much did you yield? -

mine have been coping with the smaller pots bit better recently. I think most of the leaves falling off lower down just didnt have enough light as now all the lower leaves have fallen off and the problem hasnt persisted. Canna nutrients also seem to be workin wonders - they have been looking really healthy recently and the buds are swelling - these are some pics from week 4 (couple days ago)

Only problem at the moment is i have lost my red cherry berry amongst the other plants and cant tell which one it is. Hoping toward the end of flower ill be able to sniff her out of the other plants.

[Charbud]

forums have been down for a while do they have bulked out since last pic.
phatjay -I definatly did veg them for too long, those lower buds will be annoying to trim and will probably yield the same amount as the smaller ones. The extra bulb i hung infront of all of them made a huge difference to the plants near it, the buds got bigger enough so they are all merging into one big cola with no gaps unlike the others.

I think next time round i might do four plants and have a 250 on each side and the 125 on top nd see what happens.

pics

Tangerine dream - she has a sativa look and im pretty sure the strain is about 60% sativa - she looks like she will take a couple weeks longer to finish..

Cream caramel
This is the one that had the side lighting - going to be a nice monster bud right there
