Is this purpling or a deficiency?

i'm not sure. I'm using advanced nutrients the whole lineup almost to the directions. they are currently on the 6th week so I guess 4 or 5 more weeks till harvest.



Ph is around 6. R-O water. feed is usually around 600ppm starting with 10ppm for straight water

there you go

I`m saying its a lockout or a P/K deff, 600ppm is half what I`d use I like 1000ppm going into flower and 2000ppm peak but some people use half that, my water has between 200pp and 400ppm of bullshit in it

your lower fan leaves looking a bit worse than the upper ones ?

yes, lower ones are starting to yellow out kind of. I'm using about 40ml/10L of bloom 20ml/10L of Big bug, Candy bud and B52. it looks like im using a lot but maybe I'm too afraid of overfeeding. this is my 2nd grow and the first one with A/N. should I increase the dose a bit to get it to 1k?

does it matter how much nutrients I use in if ppm is still low. keeping in mind that i start with 10ppm

I`d give them more npk yeah

Maybe no bud candy till later that has a lot of dextrose in it, I use mono dextrose but only in the last 2 to 4 weeks otherwise rot and bugs can become an issue.

b52 is b vits to reduce stress right ?

you using a wetting agent ?

you in soil or coco or what ?

B52 mainly because I supercropped 3rd week in flower and it says use till week 6. I'm in soil and no wetting agent. They have a product called wet betty I wasn't sure if I was on that level yet.

wetting agent helps but more in coco it makes bubbles reduces the water tension and lowers the chance of root rot and bugs, straight up its just soap theres a few types of wetting agent out there, I like the types where I use less and they cost less as the bottle lasts ages and if I spill it it cost fuck all

essentials wetter or wetting agent has been pretty good

Yeah I get it the B52 will have b1 and b12 to slower the stress

yeah I`d give more "bloom" do you have any "grow" feed left ? maybe a wee bit of grow and some more bloom

push to 1k without the bud candy that should get enough npk..... I`d use the bud candy later in flower myself if I was going to use it

but I avoid buying AN`s stuff if I have to I go with Plant magic or GH, house and garden do good stuff too, just with bigger brands you end up paying for the label, I like to buy something based on what`s inside the box you know ?

I'll add some grow nutes thanks for the info man, I really appreciate it.
I get that bigger brands are expensive but money wasn't really an issue starting up. See where I'm from I can sell a gram as high as 250 usd. Roi is gonna be over %1000. I just have to finish perfectly. I was hoping they'd turn purple cause I have some grape kush by caliconnection. If that happens I can definitely get 300 a gram.  oh and Temps are 60low 70highest

Yeah good herb is £180 to £300 in London mate

that`s what $500 a zip ?

still I like my stuff to last and I like it to work I don`t want some asshole to mix potassium sulphate and triacontanol then charge me a 500% mark up

Plus powder food is really nice to work with, you get yourself some nice spoons like .5g to 20g or so and its so nice I mean I use liquids gotta use some but the easy to dissolve powders are nicer to work with

Potassium sulphate and "bumper crop" powder foods are worth looking into, sounds crazy but some of them even work better than the fancy bottled stuff, lol

Still your stuff looks good man sure you can turn it around

maybe get a lil cal/mag for next time use that twice or so in veg and from week 2 to 4/6 of bloom, will keep cal/mag and nitrogen deff at bay

Then maybe get some potassium sulphate, you can add that later in flower no more need to buy the bulk up and bud candy stuff if you have that

Plenty of P in your hydro food normally they like 200ppm (you can go to 1000ppm if using it solo but just for finishing) or so of the potassium sulphate as you get later into flower you can cut back the other foods and mostly just finish them on that

it`s cheap and it makes them sticky and smelly, sulpha really helps the plants make more stank :p

$250 a gram that's like $7000 a zip :bigjoint:, I knew I should've gotten some Cal/mag but I had a little left from the grow before and though it'd be enough. I'll check out the bumper crop sounds interesting

Yeah lots of places do their own powder foods, I use some uk based company called elixir, they have their own brands

but ask in your shops and stuff some of them make their own and its cheap just most hydro guys are there to sell "canna" "AN" and who ever else is paying up to have their stuff on the shelfs

i have broken 3000 several times. big down-side, trimming. but it's still cool to see those 1.4lbs colas...
is that 3000ppm with cal mag and background noise or 3000ppm of nutes you added ?

I got some tips of buds start to bleach in dwc around 3000 - 3400 tapwater had around 300ppm of bullshit in it when I was doing that so I kinda set 2000ppm as my peak for bloom but I`d go over if I was sure the plants could take it

150ish tap, then gh3, cal/mag, and booster. highest ever was 3160, during a summer drought, tap got up to 400ppm
