They are ready for the next light cycle,I see that they are filling out the space quickly,on the next feeding ,give them a pre-flowering mix of nutes,a equal dose of "npk",then 2 weeks after you've done that,give them a full doseage of flowering mixture,keep an eye on the "ph"adjust when nesessary,top of the resevoir with plain water when needed....bonbon

hi bonbon sorry to sound a bit stupid but what do you exacdtly mean by pre flower mix (npk)? ihave two types of nute 1 to grow and then 1 lot to do bloom. be a shame to watch t65hese suckers go to waste now...

[bonbon]

that not all nutes come in 3 part formulas,I use the"GH" flora series(micro,grow,bloom) The flora series allows you to adjust the mixture for different phases of growth,but use the nutes that you have you've been using,since they are doing a nice job.What brand are you using anyway? Your grow looks fantastic!....bonbon

i'm using the vita link grow/bloom with a little bit of supthrive and i also have some pk13-14 witch from what i can gather goes in about 3 weeks b4 harvest...is that sound right to you?

[bonbon]

I've never used those nutrients before,but i did a search an read up on them,I think that part A would contain the micro and secondary ingredients,part B the major,they seem like a fine product,I wonder if i can find them in the U.S.?I havent used the PK13/14 either,but my hydro shop has it in stock,so on my next grow i'll give it a try.I only use superthrive very early in the veg cycle and to start cuttings,I've been told that it slows growth in the flowering cycle,but i never knew why?but if i were you,i would just keep using the manufacture's directions for everything,it's been working out for you so far,I wouldn't change a thing,whats the ph and ec of your reservoir?just curious....bonbon

[shadymike]

i try to keep my ph at about 5.5-6...

[Jointeffort]

What makes the leaves turn yello? I have a few plants and one if them is tiny and the leaves are half yello....any thoughts?

[Jointeffort]

My Ph is about 6.2 and the plant in question is only about 2 inches tall with 2 sets of leaves (top set look fine, small but fine otherwise)

[bonbon]

if you're using a complete hydro fert(major,macro,trace elements)increase the dose slightly(800ppm)lower the ph to 5.5-5.8 range,or the plant might just be a runt,how big are the others?....bonbon
