  1. Soils at full hydration and I have bought a feed being delivered 5-3-8
    I want to enter flower so I hope the 5 is fine with organics lol ,

    I am currently getting yellow leaves daily (n) it’s lower leaves not upper as all new growth looks nice , purple stems show a phosphorus need and a weakness in the stems and dryness to leaves on most appearing and 2 cultivars show rust spots a lot, so it’s strain dependant the ca need if only two show that constantly eh? , I’m throwing some worm shit on tonight to help them a little with some gypsum and limestone , they do perk up with chickenshit but I don’t want to add more with my fert in the post and overdo it .
    But would I benefit from a faster release food too? The fert says slow release so thinking it will need a few weeks to start ,I thought about adding compost but was told not to pot up higher on the branches and stem lol Bz , Rolex , stardawg
     
  2. Photo of plant?
     
  3. Need food. Purple stems can be caused by numerous things.

  6. MBP... Malted Barley Powder.. Steroids for Organics in Flower.
    Find your local home beer brew shop. Buy 1 pound of 6 or 2 row Malted Barley. Do not let / have them crack it for you.
    Powder 1 tablespoon in a coffee bean grinder and sprinkle under plant. Scratch and water in. Apply every 2 weeks. Can be done as an air bubbled tea as well.

  7. Runoff ph I will check for ya ,you mean put a tub under water in n catch the drips ye ?
    Did soil ph test 3/4 ro water n soil from under surface gave a 6.7 but will recheck soon as my visitors go home

    been in panic mode my chillie plants downstairs had spider mite on so neeming tonight been cleaning all day

    If I Topdress chicken poo everyv2 week they seem to stay green just over that time mark now and ther doing the hunger strike again lol is why I was going to get the 5-3-8 as it has the bonemeal in too along with chicken poo etc, went longer than I wanted to in veg building new groom but it’s a 45day cultivar and a few 55 so I just wanna flip best I can feed em and get em out so I can rebuild the soil properly and next time Il be 3 week flip not 2 month lol seems a shame to axe trees and time eh if it was a sativa I’d think again lol have seen bigger trees lol it’s just finding how best to manage their feeding eh

    I’ll go get ya runoff n tests in an hour @Jay_R_1787

  13. 79f 3 inch deep buddy sorry so long been out most the day
     
  14. The 5-3-8 feed says it won’t make green flush of growth sounds cool ,was worried about the N and flower Start but learnt that a myth with organic since and another guy I follow used a 25-10-10 in flower so N myth is learnt and confirmed haha ,when the feed arrives it says feeds for 6week but will take a few week to break down and start feeding.

    Today my growth has jumped through the screen green still some yellow bottoms it seems every time they grow up top , a few below yellow n drop ,I’ve just given some ewc top dress which is 3-1-2 npk to help em get some fast food n microbes , but looking lush today

    Would A liquid feed on top of that dry feed 6-2-4 organic , be of benefit mainly during stretch ? It is is a high brix flower feed it looks damn enticing as raising brix and is meant to be a key in the works eh (it’s a non profit nursery n farm so it’s all cheaper than milk too , they stock other company’s who relabel as there own but look after the small peeps) makes me want it all , they even gave me a lab they use which do the melich3 over here if you request it so will get a test at the end of my grow and they can advise how to adjust with their line yay.

    they said I’d have no problem using both or just 1 , my fear is when these monsters hit stretch the current problem that seems hungry is going to fly nuts and go yellow as .
    I have ordered both as I will be using on my garden veg this season too trial and error , just rather not trial and error so much on the canna , my harvest is most important I need meds lol don’t mind a twisted tomato but a smoke .. umm Got to be grade eh

    420 to all I need feed and sleep just finished a night shift n pulled my back wonder what my npk is, think i need to eats some granules too
