So I have been growing a White Widow feminized plant for two months.
I just recently decided to start a journal.
So, lets catch up to date since it got planted April 24, 2012.





Here's the seedling stage before stress:

Look below for the Attached Thumbnails to finish pictures until week 3

All the pictures above HERE are before the stress.



Heat stress and nute burn:

Then she perked up a little:

Anyone know what a purple branch is from? I hear a P deficency is what causes this. But, I'm not sure.

Any ideas blades?

Keep in mind I only fed her water until week 8 because of all the stress that got put on her at week 3.

I'll post a close up within the next few hours

It might be potassium deficiency as you said, but I'd refer to Vitamins thread if you want to be sure. Here's the link: http://forum.grassci...-nutrients.html

Thanks for the link bud, still can't find any issue. This, being a good thing. I read up and heard it's most likely genetics according to my current status of all my specs.

I'll still post a pic soon

And again thanks for subbin' in Xhexk

Also, P is Phosphorus and K is Potassium ;)

N- Nitrogen: Promotes the growth of leaves and vegetation

P- Phosphorus: Promotes root and shoot growth

K- Potassium: Promotes flowering, fruiting and general hardiness

Just found that on Wikipedia.
Nice little reference for this journal :)

My bad mate, I thought you were just shortening P for Potassium haha.

But good luck with her, she's growing nicely.

Question:

Considering the stress at week 3, the available space (about 5 feet), the use of only CFL's, and no growing technique, is it possible to get alteast 2 oz's from her?

Vague opinions are welcome because I know you can't estimate a yield until harvest.
