Red stems and leaf veins

  1. So here i am growing green crack gorilla glue x white widow and nevilles haze, im in week 4-5 and now this shit started happening. Run off clicked in at about 12-1400ppm so i flushed it down to 8-900ppm with ph water at 6.2-_6.5. Leaves are yellowing and my girls look really sad. Im thinking of drying them out for 5 days then feed. I have a kind led set spectrum at 60/30/60. Temp in the tent at no more then 80°f plants dont seem to be eating mwybe lock out has occurred. I dont know. Any advice anyone!?! 1537498470281.jpg 1537498791998.jpg 1537498810392.jpg 1537498766924.jpg 1537498458113.jpg

  2. You can add a little epsom salt and it will help with the red stems.

  3. I had flushed yesterday all the way to 8-900,ppm. Today i flushed again and it was up to 1400ppm. So i flush all the way down to 400ppm
     
  4. I did add epsom salt
     
  5. How long does it take to se results the leaves are yellowing bad
     
  6. What type of grow media are you using? I would be more worried about the yellowing fan leaves than the purple stems. I’ve grown green crack and had slight purple stems regardless of what I did with my cal/mag dosage. I think it may just be the genetics of the plant. Maybe flush it really well, leave it for a bit to dry out then try to establish a decent ph level. Anytime I’ve had lock out it’s been from ph issues not nutrients. I grownin coco and have to constantly tweak my ph to keep my plant happy. A slurry test now and then helps with piece of mind. At least you know what the plants roots are working with.
     
  7. In soil. I flushed it to 400 ppm on the run off. Let it dry for 3 days then fed her but dstill the same. The others are doing it to, gorilla glue x white widow and nevilles haze
     
  8. My temps been at 80
     
  9. Ph 6.2-6.5
     
  10. Do the temps fluctuate or stay pretty steady at 80? I think at night when it’s lights out my tent might cool down a bit. I’ve read this may cause red stems? Either way I’ve never had any negative effects on the final product.
     
  11. Temps stay at 80, i run at night when its cooler. Im using kind led k5 xl1000. All the plants are showing this even clones from the green crack. Im thinking about just doing a super flush down to 100ppm. And go from there..flowers arent gettin any bigger like they stopped growing.

  12. That’s not a bad idea at all, it sounds like maybe the growth is stunting a bit due to a lockout? If it were me I would flush well and then start feeding them half strength neuts at a good ph level and ease back up to full strength slowly.
     
  13. Here are the clones they look like shit but i gues theyre trying to get out of the solo cup

  14. Crazy cause i just flushed themthe clone run off was 1300ppm.

  15. Ya man, they looked like they’re locked out, keep flushing until the runoff comes down in ppm. That’s just my guess, anyone else have an idea??
     
  16. I dropped them to 200ppm for now
     
  17. What advice you have on green crack for week 5 and beyond
     
  18. I had to flush mine around week 5 because my ph pen got out of calibration so I was feeding at like 5.6 ph in coco. Everything kind of stopped and I got a bit of yellowing. Then I flushed really well and started feeding them slowly once things dried out a bit working up to full nutes. Then I just watched the ph of my runoff closely to make sure my roots were still seeing a properly PhD water. It kind of just took care of it’s self after that to be honest. I just fed it regularly and flushed it at the end.
