Good afternoon ladies and fellas. Been here before and have gotten wonderful device (thank you). I'm about 8 weeks and change into flowering. (I'm all organic with soil, indoors in a barn) and I have noticed one of my sativas is leaf yellowing kinda like it's putting it's energy, all in, into buds and also noticed its having a bitch of a time draining. It's the only Plant having a hard time draining and started a couple weeks ago. My initial flush date was last week but the trichomes and bud size aren't there yet so I waited. Any advice and or should I just start flushing to hopefully catch it before the plant fully dies or does anyone have an alternate idea? Started with a yellow leaf or two and a little yellow at the bottom now 3 leaves are solid yellow and one basically died off. Curious as to your opinion as a novice grower. Thanks in advance!
pot up to a bigger pot size will offer more food, a better light will prevent the stretch- compare good luck
Oh I can repot this late in the game? Makes sense since the roots are tight as fuck haha. I thought I was too late. Thanks!
Seems flushing is an intense and nuanced debate I'm a YouTube warrior but prefer a real person 10 out of 10... Do you mind explaining why you aren't down with it? Just for context I use organic compost (I have a farm) and organic potting soil mix and only use fox farm nutes.
check the link: New Research Shows Flushing Plants Before Harvest May Be Unnecessary it was a famous news release still causing a storm ...lol
Hah I will do! I have 5 plants right now I think I'll just go half and half and see the difference myself but I'll def read this... Thank you
To conduct the trial, growers at the RX Green Technologies research and development facility in Colorado cultivated cannabis plants of the strain Cherry Diesel in a coco-based medium. During growth, the plants were fertilized with the company’s brand of nutrients. Four groups of 12 plants each were subjected to different flush times as harvest approached. Each group of plants was flushed for either zero, seven, 10, or 14 days. Flower samples taken the day before harvest were analyzed for essential plant nutrients. Overall, there was no significant change in the mineral content of cannabis flower as a result of different flushing treatments. After harvest, the plants were cured and tested for final trimmed flower weight, terpene, and THC concentrations. Lab analysis found no significant differences between the different flushing treatments for flower yield, THC potency, or terpene content. Add to that the fact that the plants put on a fair amount of weight during the last two weeks before harvest. Not exactly the time to deprive them of nutrients.
beware of transplant shock more so when in flower, do it gently like at the end of the day so they recover overnight to restart in the morning, any wilting keep in shade until perked up, yeah loosing those little roots but not enough to freak her out good luck
