deficiency

[paver]

Can someone help me out something is wrong with my girls

What growing medium and nutes do you use? What's your feeding schedule and the temp humidity in the room? What's the pH set at? What kind of water are you using? I.e. distilled, tap, spring, rev. Osmosis etc.

 

[akmatanuska]

Also, what kind of lights your running and how close are they. These are all questions you should have already answered when making a post. Saves you time on getting your ladies fixed and healthy again. Thanks!

Not familiar with those nutrients myself but the advanced nutrients I use you only use once a week. And in between waterings they told be to just use plain water. Also distilled water doesn't have the minerals that other water has and its.also pretty much made in a lab. You might want to try adding a cal/mag product to your feeding schedule and maybe give your plants a good flush with plain water and then start feeding next watering. Because Idk what your exactly pumping into your plants it's always going to be tough to diagnose unless you isolate the problem. I mean it looks lot more like a cal deficiency though.

I also recommend getting this new book by Jorge Cervantes. It's $30 on amazon and is the holy grail for cannabis information. It has everything you could ever need. The pics are awesome! It has pics like the ones up there with the excess/deficiency on almost every nutrient.

Good luck ~ AK

NO FUCKING FLUSH!!!! Good lord when will they ever learn? That will only make matters worse!
Look,,,he's right...you need Ca/Mg... G&H CALiMAGic is good stuff for the exact problem you have!

Good luck

Doc

P.S. Jorge is not the end all do all of growing! He has things he's not exactly right on and something he's wrong on.....Flushing is the latter.

Lol everyone has there own opinion and no one can be right 100%. Also flashing later.... sure at the end that's a given but when you over feed your plants you need to flush if you have toxcicity so you can get the hot soil to stabilize it also flashes the salt build up that happens. I've called plenty of nutrient companies and they've all said the same... im sure they know there product more then some rand on a forum (no offense) but we are all Rands so it is what it is. Also you can get leaves that look like that with excess nutrients and you don't even know what the guys using. Especially if he waters 4 times a week and uses nutes the entire time. But cal/mag is always the first step with a case like this.

 

[akmatanuska]

P.s. tell me that buying that book wouldn't be a good idea... lol there are tons of growers out there that are very wise and know more then I can imagine myself knowing but Jorge is definitely a pro.

Woah why flush a deficiency? I'm no pro and it looks like cal deficiency to me too, but ya man that is the problem on these forums. So it's a deficiency. Your pH is good, and someone says flush. Wtf. They don't look that bad bro. like mine it was one leaf. I left it. If you do what everyone says on here right away your will just end up worse. You would flush all those nutes you put in in 3 times a week and start adding all kinds after that. Might just cause a bigger problem

I have his videos and book and haven't used it. Why listen to one guy? Book? We have Internet now your telling him to go buy a book? Lol I got all those books and his movies for free on the Internet lol tho I don't watch or read him. He's not the only good grower lol

 

[newbiegreenfinger]

If you're gonna listen to anyone listen to dr who, add cal mag and slow down a bit on the nutes.. No point trading over feeding with under feeding right? Just feed once a week or every third watering...

Yes we do,,,,Flushing at the finish is a myth son! Not a given! Proper cure,proper cure,proper cure! I suggest you not argue about that topic and instead simply search it here....Read up on what myself and others say about it.....

It's less stressful on the plant to simply water out a tox problem then to run however many gallons of water per gallon of pot size!
The roots are wet for an extended period of time. That can cause an anaerobic condition and kill the plant fast. Screws up pH of the plant for an extended period thus causing more damage......

Now, in severe cases, a little leeching may be whats called for....Use a very weak nutrient solution, say 1/8 and water till you get a quart or so of run off. Let the plant drain.....NOW (when it dries out) water with just water for 5-8 days.....Maybe a little Ca/Mg to that...

Just because some nutrient company says to do something, DOES NOT make it right.....Their in your pocket! Not your best interest.

I didn't say not to buy it......In fact I often suggest that book but I usually suggest a cpl of others with it!

I've done this almost as long as Jorge, maybe as long!!
He's not exactly correct on a few subject's......
So reading several is better.....

Peace

I was the one that stated that to begin with. And for everyone else it's all opinion I've been doing it my way for quite some time and I've never killed my plants. Do you think I'm the only guy that does this....

It is not in fact opinion but experience that qualifies some of these answers. If you are really using AN to feed your plants then you don't truly understand what your plants need and shouldn't try to help others by sharing your inexperienced views.
