UPDATE DAY 65 Veg
She's looking much better but this girl is very tricky. She really likes nitrogen but she get burned easily by other nutes. I'm prolly not gonna veg her for too much longer as this was a test run but I'll prolly take a couple clones off her and have them ready soon after this girl gets done and decide which one is best maybe even do a two plant run. I think those two weeks where she didn't get light for two day both weeks tricked her into flowering some but all is ok and will be flipping this girl soon

Man bro she really has. It's been soo long since I did a grow but growing from seed is really taking a while I don't remember it taking his long with soil but I've had problems so I figured that slowed me down but this girl is slow. I'm gonna see how much growth I get these next couple weeks and if she doesn't grow much then I'm gonna flip her then start a new run with something else or take clones from her. I really wanna grow her again since I've had problems this run so I think I may take a few clones and run her again with new bulbs and everything and take it slow with nutes

Herb I think I just may run it again just to see what she's like dialed in with no problems. I took a couple clones and threw them outside to see how they would do I'm hoping the don't get stress too much.

Sorry guys I haven't updated in a couple weeks been swamped with work and other things happening. Car has broke down and lots of negative things happening so it's been hard to update regularly. She's not doing the best which is really frustrating me because I've done everything I can to help revive her. Growth has pretty much slowed down tremendously she's still growing but very very slow. She's been like this for the last couple weeks and I just don't know what to do or what it could be. I've flushed her numerous times with pH'd water gave her low dose of nutes and still she hasn't recovered. Temps are fine in closet and in res. Plenty fresh air humidity is 40-50%. I've never had a problem growing like I've had this time before and I don't think it has anything to do with the hydro system. I need your help guys ASAP because I've put a lot of time into this girl and I don't want to give up on her cus she's still surviving. Help me guys pics posted after this post

you know we will help you however we can man! check for root rot I know it can really stunt growth badly once it takes control. and sorry to hear about the other stuff man we all have our ups in downs in life, I'm not doing so hot myself right now but hey man it will get better I promise!

Whenever mine slow down and start giving me issues i always check the roots first. If nothing i start doing more frequent foliar sprays while keeping the feeding (at roots) less than full strength for the stage it is in. After a couple days of this is when i see the positives.

Then once i see it benefitting i keep at it for another few days. Then i taper back the foliar and ramp up (slowly) the feedings at roots.

Yeah agreed man, soundd like it may be a root issue if it keeps stunting. May be best to just flower her mate and get this girl done. Personally i wouldnt bother with her clones either, if the mother is this slow, id assume her clones will be too. Check for slime in the roots and if she has it, id say your res temp is too high.

Hey man. Wanted to pass along some stuff I started using to deal with the chlorine/chloramine content in tap water. My tap water is actually not that bad and has some of the lowest chlorine contents in the nation - but this stuff says it will remove up to 4mg/L which is way more than anyone's tap water has in it. The bubbling gets the chlorine gas out, but the chloramines are not very good any microbial life you might be trying to get use. Anyway, so far it seems to be working awesome. Inexpensive and you use like 5ml for 10 gallons.

To all my friends that were following this thread I'm very sorry I didn't finish this. I know a lot of you were looking forward to see how this would pan out but lots of things out of my control happened and it just really put me in a bad place. I didn't feel like doing anything but I'm in a much better space now. Just to let all of you know I did harvest the Pineapple Express. It was very good smoke but just didn't reach the potential it should have and that was all on me.
I stunted her very hard in the beginning of her life which she never really covered from. The pots I made out of Rubbermaid totes didn't not work at all because there was no space between the pots inside in turn which caused MASSIVE salt build up and caused major lockout. The whole time I was thinking it was my tap water that was causing the problems but it wasn't that at all. My tap is pretty good with having only 45-50 ppms in it. It has a lot of chlorine in it but my friends here helped me with that by letting me know to let it bubble overnight. I didn't take any pix of the finished product as it was the worse grow I've ever done but I've learned from my mistakes and that wont happen again. Got some new pots and yes these work for sure lol def have the proper drainage. I have everything setup and Im running the HSO Blue Dream which I will start a thread for soon and will mos def complete it this time no matter what happens in my life. Just have to roll with the punches and keep fighting. Thanks to all my friends here who followed me with the last grow and hope to see them and any new people that I may become friends in the next log. Peace
