Last Friday you were happy at 650. Saying it dropped a little. Then something about carbon boosters?? No idea what that is.
does the foiler spray help?

After I distill enough water to refill the res I'll mix up some foliar and start that treatment.

Ok so your probably gonna need the calmag stuff. Your distillery works good?? How much waste is there. Was going to try it. Wife’s always buying it for humidifiers. Hate paying for more water That I already payed for.

An ordinary electric kettle for boiling water works just fine at eliminating impurities in tap water, even though we have some of the cleanest tap water in the world I still boil it at this point to get rid of the stuff cannabis doesn't really need just to be safe. If you're worried about residue buildup in the kettle I'd recommend washing the chamber spout and lid with dishwashing soap and a brush, then rinse it off in the sink before drying as much as you can with disposable paper towels, we're still taking about an electric appliance so just to be safe ensure it is completely dry before next use. I'm just basing this on logic and experience with kitchenware.

Have you added any more light?200 HPS isnt that much so your ppm should reflect that.

Mission report

Well whatever is happening to the plants is still going off, but today I'm switching reservoir water. The plants are fucking big for the tent right now, so I really should start flowering instantly after the symptoms have disappeared...

I'm thinking of snipping off the lower colas entirely as I think they won't get anything good in terms of buds and then I could make the net to support the best colas.

Yesterday the PPM was around 540-550 after I topped off the reservoir and I've been misting the plants twice a day with foliar that has 100~ PPM of the Cal-Mag additive.

Help is most appreciated now

Can't really add any more lighting into the tent, it's just barely big enough to fit one light with the cooltube and air duct

So that's what it was called... Lollipopping, completely forgot that incredible little technique that even first timers like me can use.

On a note I haven't noticed much change on the leaves since yesterday in terms of damage... Maybe I should have a PPM of around 550 and focus on using the call-mag as a foliar additive, or then just throw 50 PPM worth of it into the reservoir?

Remind me again, did cannabis plants eat more nitrogen during flowering or am I remembering it incorrectly?

For me 1 ml/l of calmag is about 80~100 ppm.I usally dont go above that.N is needed throughout the grow but as flower time lengthens its needed less.

Hmm, then I guess I'm keeping an eye on other cal-mag additives I can buy from my country, hopefully I'll find GH cal-mag since it has less nitrogen or maybe AN has a hydro specific cal-mag that doesn't screw with nitrogen...

FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!

Had to be away for a week due to personal affairs, and my mistake was trusting a friend to look after my plants who declared they knew what to do with the girls. Well, they did fuckall. They didn't trim the lower canopies or train them to fit the fan, didn't try to diagnose anything, didn't update the thread, didn't switch the light cycles and worst of all DIDN'T TOP OFF THE RESERVOIR NOR SWITCH IT OUT YESTERDAY!!! THESE GIRLS ARE OVER 50CM TALL NOW! WAY TOO FUCKING BIG IF THEY STRETCH OUT CRAZY!

I'm distilling water to make the switch right now... I'm just so pissed off right now... From my knowledge I've got only two choices right now, either begin flowering right now while I still have some room left for stretching and play it off as a fumble, other is to dump the plants and start from scratch if I can't at this point snip the current stalks down a size to allow them to heal from the traumatic experience that is my dumbass friend...

Really, really, really need help right now... My fucking mind and soul are just crushed right now...

They look fine,do some trimming maybe take a few clones.Looks like the pH was off a little no biggy.Roots need some help,get them back under water with some of whatever your using.You got this.
