Blood red (leaf) stems week 3 flower. over nute?

[pacificNW]

PIC1-whole room PICS 2-7 is the one i added bloom to PICS 8-10 are the one i flushed
I had forgot these seeds came from a field 2 towns over with atleast 6 strains in it, i have been hearing as far as genetics, hybrids more often show red stems than pure strains. There is probably some double crosses in there actually that the grower selected because of traits, in other words he took stable inbred genes( 2 of the same pure strain crossed together) got seeds from his last crop, planted them, and allowed for the pure genetics to be naturally crossed in the field with other variety's . So the genetics are obviously a cluster-fk of nice strains lol. And good ones at that, cant be too easy outdoor with the weather here.

and i just noticed how alot of the pistils are changing color already, is this normal for week 4 of flower? short flowering strain maybe?

It seems BCN diesel has alot of these characteristics, and looks similar to my buds as well, they all have a sweet diesel smell profile so that would fit, i got this off 420
< BCN Diesel with the exact same red stems and really dark leaves ( mine seem lighter because of camera filter). his harvest didnt seem to lack either ,
anyway im sure each of these plants are different genetically now, if they where outdoor each bud could have been pollinated with 4 different strains leading to endless crosses for all i know.Next round im for sure going with fem seeds from greenhouse seeds, A lot of their land races look unbeatable as far as genetic lines go, dont think there are much cleaner genetics out there.

na........yours isn't strain related..... that guys problem is a little different.... hes got the spots ..... I bet he lost most of his leaves......

added the bloom yesterday, buds have grown over night lol, as for the red stems they are still there.. the one i flushed is just kinda pale now.. buds look like they have stretched out almost, kinda airy now... the big bloom didn't seem to spread the burns on the tips of the leaves which is good..will keep it up with the bloom on this one to see if the red fades, re added bloom in low doses to the one i flushed.

did a little test on a leaf stem that was green, i bent it back and forth a few times and this morning the whole stem is red( not bruising in 1 spot) also i LST'd a little cola on a guy that was all green and the leaf stems are red.. could this all be from excess stress on the branches? i have been bending them into place quite a bit do they dont cover bud sites.

thanks for the advice on the bloom, the buds look+smell alot better and new pistils everywhere over night.

gotta slow down and relax youre not gonna fix this overnight.........need to water again w the big bloom then get some granular fertilizer....... and more castings ..nitrogen has nothing to do w it........ gotta read up on your organic stuff .....really tho if you could keep it from getting worse you would be doing ok....

and you shouldn't be messing w em........ do your training during veg..... bending leaves around to un cover buds isn't really gonna help you any.....changing your timer so the light runs while your sleeping would help.......

I guess your right, and do you mean change the timer so I don't keep messing with em? lol, I think im just worried because this is my very first set of plants to make it past 8inches of veg growth. I have read a hell of a lot but feel like somehow before this is over I will manage to fk it up.
added a 1/2cup of castings to each pot and fed with bloom again ( a little weaker this time). The paler plants are getting darker that's good right?.

 

[woody333333]

yep that's what I meant..... Im an asshole....lol......... youre gonna be ok just gotta go easy w em .......... cant be getting crazy....... the big bloom by itself isn't gonna make it tho ..... the pale plant that you flushed getting greener is definitely a good thing but you don't wanna go to far w it...... the castings are about the magic organic stuff goin on inside the pots not nitrogen......

I'm just about in to week 4 of flower and some of my pistols are starting to turn color too. I was hoping it wasn't heat related :-l

I read a bit more, if anything has slightly bumped or rubbed the pistils even a leaf it can sever the vein that runs up the pistil and cause it to dry out and yellow or brown, as the pistils mature they will start to die as well. some strains throw white pistils until the end of flower , so a few dead ones ( as long as there are plenty of white ones) is probably just from getting touched.
You haven't been spraying anything on them have you?
also, whats the average temp at the height of the plant canopy and how far are your lights?

Today was a very very bad day, i dont know when it happened ( dosent matter now) but one of the plants hermed out at some point, i clipped buds off two plants to find 1 fking nanner just 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i looked everywhere there was only 1 on 1 plant and it had seeded 4 plants out of 8, clear through the buds.
cut them down will watch the other ones but something tells me they all are pollinated, will post pics of the buds tomorrow morn,and even if the remaining ones herm im just gonna let em finish out.. outdoor season in WA is right around the corner ill probably have better luck.
