Using roots organic soil techniflower. Nuts just feed 50% last night she's 4week from seed jillybean. Leaves were yellow before i feed but i think it's worse now frist time i fim and l.s.t how is she doing should i be worried
What kind of lighting are you using ? You might wanna scale back on the nuts. I'd like to know if you have any jillybean seeds to spare? But take a look at my photo this is from over nutting and not have all the tools I needed for my grow Sent with Peace & Love
I got 4 55watt cfl 2 100 cfl and one 150 cfl all 6500k and 3 42 watt cfl 2700k then i got a 600 watt hps for flowering with a cool tube i got 3 others started at same time but that one has the worst yellowing Yes i do have a couple beans i could come off
Yellowing leaves is typically a nitrogen deficiency. However that does not necisarrily mean there is no nitrogen present. Many nutes are required in conjunction to facilitate the nutiants job ( I know I know..duu right?). Hence the term "nute lockout". Magnesium is the most highly used micro nutrient plant take in after N-P-K. They need a lot of it. And the yellowing of leaves that start from your plants bottom branches is a good indicator of a mg deficiency. Another sign is very thickly defined vein margins on your leaves. If you look at the % on the back of your bottle I'm sure you will find very little to no mg in your solution. A cheap, easy source of mg is 1 tblspoon of basic drug store bought (fully desolved) epson salt per 1 gl of water. The reason why nutes come in multiple bottles other then a 1 bottle fits all solution( other then to rape your wallet) is that some nutes if stored in a solution together will start to rot.
I would dial back to 25% and add Epson salt to your mix. And if really worried about it do a heavy watering to flush out the old nutes with that slightly weaker solution. Ideally You want 10% runoff every watering to avoid salt buildup. If intentionally flushing I would kick that to 20-50% runoff depending on lvl of plant toxicity.
Good looking im very new to this so thanks for advice one of many bottles like u said is this any good
well for now i think your on the right track. flush hard and start again at 1/4th recommended strength. i would keep track of which bottles you use and how much/often on a piece of paper so if this doesn't clear up we can get a better idea of what your feeding.
Thanks for the pointers u can read all the info u want but theres nothing like hands on im learning a lot
I would say that's mostly true. I went to school for commercial Ag and am a certified greenhouse manager and all plants/crops work on similar general principles. But In my opinion the grow industry purposely confuses some things (fertilizer more then anything) to continue selling the greatly overpriced products they make. I would say the right book can do ALOT to limit ones learning curve for a specific crop. If I had to pick only 1 book on this subject it would be. http://www.barnesandnoble.com/listing/2693811435772?r=1&kpid=2693811435772&cm_mmc=GooglePLABook_25To44Q0000006332693811435772 I have given this to a few new growers and found most had pretty respectable crops within a few rounds. sorry I couldn't be of more help. keep me posted on how things progress and best of luck.
Well thanks for sharing the trick with the epson salt i believe the yellowing has not gotten any worse and she's looking a lot happier I will put a pic up when i get home
