If it's labelled un sulphured and it has a reasonable K level, it's a good one!! though grocery labelled molasses ain't gonna give you an NPK . . . .duh . . . .sorry . . . .

Yeah un sulphured from grocery store will do it. I'd apply it 2tsp gal with your enzos :)

Alright I have those items ordered and will get some lassy to go with it! Too bad it's gonna take 11 days to get it here...and that was the fastest shipping option! Hopefully they don't die on me before I get a chance to use my newfound knowledge!

I didn't top just curled them around the pot a bit but then it seemed whatever I tied down started to die so I let them go.
Here are some pics with more natural light for you semper fi.

Edit: your babe's are beautiful Lil green leaves
edit 2: should I pull off the dead leaves or let them fall off on their own?

Let em fall on their own m man . . . . . you'll pass the "nutrient drain" to the next leaf up until we sort out your deficiencies :)

Thanks for white light piccies bro . . . .can get a better idea now . . .

Yes, so the lovely lil girls need a good feed, if all they've been having this last two weeks has been water.

So can we go through the NPK values of all of your nutrients please?

You've got a 6-4-4
What else do you have? What are you using as base nutrient?

Sorry Fox Farms Trio . . . .just found your old link . . . . :)

Just sorting out a schedule for you . . ..

Right oh . . .. . I reckon this will work some magic back into your babes :)

All per gallon . . . .


Feeds:

2tsp Grow Big
2tsp Tiger Bloom
3tsp Big Bloom
3tsp Grozyme
3tsp Diamond Nectar
3tsp Diamond Black


Every single watering for the next week to ten days, except the one after a feed . . .

1tsp Tiger Bloom
1.5tsp Big Bloom
1tsp Diamond Nectar
1tsp Diamond Black
1tsp Grozyme


The one watering after feeds

2tsp Diamond Nectar
1tsp Grozyme

All PH'd to 6.6 to 6.7 for now, then back down to 6.5 when we have about 6.4 to 6.8 run off PH :)

Take your PH measurement after you have mixed your nutrients up.
Ideally leave the nutrient for an hour so the PH can properly even out and stabilize for a good reading, not essential though, no biggy. :)

See how you get on bro :)

Just so I know, what's your average lights on and light off temp and humidity??


TTfn . . . . .

Sounds like a plan thanks for the Schedule,
Until the enzymes amd humid fulvic acid show up can I follow this schedule with just the fox farm nutes I have? And as for a trim in my research I read it was best not to cut any leaves off once it starts flowering, am I mistaken?
edit: what about the molasses? Is that just a one time thing?

I like to work my way up to watering with a gallon and a half to two gallons. I use soil with perlite as well. I like to water with more water later in flower, for ample runoff, and salt flushing.

Hey Bro . . .

Yeah crack on with just the FF trio for now, add the others as and when they arrive.

There I go again . . . .. forgetting the carbs . . . . .duh!!! Molasses, for me it's a once a week thing starting the week before 12/12 at 1 to 2tsp per gallon.

Leave your leaves, the plant is using the nutrient stored in them, this is why they are going yellow, if you pluck a leaf that is being sapped of nutrient by the plant, you'll simply transfer the sapping mechanism to the next healthy leaf speeding up the process of chlorosis to the entire plant before you know it, they will drop when they drop :)

Excellent thanks everybody! I will continue to post pictures periodically to let you all see the progress and if any of you have more suggestions let me know!
Thanks again!

I was also just doing some more reading and i read that the yellowing and clawing of the leaves could be nitrogen toxicity? Do you guys think that is a possibility? The soil is shitty schultz potting soil with slow release nutes (I know I'm not supposed to use it I found that out after the fact) I just really don't wanna feed it more nitrogen if it is already in toxicity.

On one of your posts dude, you'd stated that they had been on plain water for two weeks; plants that size in a pot that size, will utilize everything in the soil pretty quickly at this stage . . . .

If you had an EC meter now, we could check the strength of the fluid that comes out of the bottom, I bet it's clear and low EC . . . . .

This bro, is obviously my own humble opinion . . . if there are other experienced growers out there that have different suggestions . . .. I'm all ears too, as learning NEVER stops with these babies :)

Crackin . . . . as soon as that EC meter arrives, take a reading of your tap water please and post :)

Does your coffee pot / kettle have any deposits building up inside of it at all?

Haha good enough for me man I will be using your schedule semper and I'll let ya know how it goes!

No it doesn't but I am on a well and my water runs through a water softener and 4 sets of filters, not sure if that's good or bad!
edit: also should have mentioned I have a 4 stage reverse osmosis system as well.

Oooooooooosh that can change things . . . . .so your base water is 0EC . . . . is the water softened BEFORE the RO filters??

Can you get to the well water before the softener??
