just so were clear this is what our useing with the sister bottle for veg bio grow?
I have the same stuff bro :eyesmoke:


@kit10

1st lady got 3ml of bloom in 1 litre then I gave her 3ml of bloom and 0.5ml of grow in another litre shortly afterward.

2nd lady got 3ml of bloom in 1 litre then I gave her another 3ml of bloom in another litre shortly after.

3rd lady got 3ml of bloom in 1 litre then I gave her another 3ml of bloom with 0.5ml PK 13/14 just to see if she'l do better.

Water was at 23°c
I took a pic of a leaf of each plant to see if any change will happen in 2 to 3 days.

they might never recover, watch for further signs of lockout but your on our way to getting healthy plants.. you have only a few weeks left so there going to want to produce flowers not recover leaves...

Do you think the feed I gave them will do ?

It was mainly bloom I gave them all.
The .5ml of grow was in 2 litres total so I would hope it wouldn't harm that plant.

it wont harm them, but our confusing them if you would...

the bloom has everything the plant needs for flowering, all the base elements along with flowering elements hence the n.p.k rateing, throw in extra n.p.k at different ratios and the chemistry is off...

if you fed like that when you got salt build up i`d say this was the culprit..

when are you due to feed again? 2 litres today in foot tall 12 week plants, 4 week in flower!!! correct?

Feed em full strength bloom only. Organic fertilizer does not have any salt buildup only chemical. Hard water looks like salt buildup..

very true buds, hard water can look like salt buildup, can`t blame the kid for being a bit nervous on the feed, its a learning curve and when your in bother ...well you know the score...

rule of thumb i go by is don`t sweat the small stuff...


alot of you use tents but anyone not in a tent? cupboard or spare room etc...

also anyone use panda film or anything like it...

I haven't ever fed them like this.
They usually only got 2ml bloom and .5ml grow per 3 litre.
This is the first "good" feed they have.
I'll water them with plain next and then give them another feed minus the bio grow.
Yes. 12 weeks old. Around a foot high. 4weeks in flower.

Get on the yellow pH pens off eBay it's a must phnis so important!!

You should follow the feed schedule when in flower your ladies need more food

Silca is used as a pH up because it's a building block of the plant cell wall. Handy it raises the pH to.

Get a ppm pen when u have a few quid spare not super important but handy so u can manually up feeding when u know when to after u learn more about the plant and the environment

Can't stress it enough pH and follow the feeding lay out once in flower veg is one thing u can recover from easily but fuck it up in flower and your playing caught up all the time

Miracle grow is whooper as a feed just pH it and boom u can't fail basically

You don't have a lock your organic your just under feeding don't stress give them what the instructions say feed take a breath and in a week u will see them look great again.

I have never in my 10+ years of growing got a lock out in organic feeds

I turned away from organic because it's to slow I couldn't tasted the difference and mineral nutes are easier to fix issues in the plant with

Thanks for the advice bro.
I'll start saving for a good PH pen and continue to feed them bloom.

I think after this grow il get chemical nutes for the WW and Blue Mystic as they seem to work faster.

Personally I would have given them 1L last night and then another litre in 3-4 days to add the increase in bloom at a slower pace, but I use 12L pots. You said earlier that you don't get any run off from 2L so clearly your pots are bigger,and there's a nice distribution of nutes throughout your soil now. Don't give them anything else for at least a week though,aside from water. They've gone from 2mls to 6mls of bloom so give them time to adjust.

Practicing patience is the hardest part of growing.

It won't. I promise. (:

Just picked up this. Cheap as fuck but it will do while I save for a better one.
