hey guys. got home tonight to find tes fallen over in the tent. when I split her top she got a ton of growth on top of her. and she pushed herself over. plus I looked inside the bubbler and the bubble stone was not pushing that many bubles through. I thought I was gonna have to run to the 24hr wally world for a new air pump. but i scraped the bubble stone with my finger nail and air started coming through. so i got a green scrub pad and subbed the shit out of it. Alll better. Changed the re full strengh nutes I did take the maxibloom back 1/2 tsp and added more koolbloom. got her back in the tent and stablized her. getting closer buy the day and hopefully she will finish strong.

They do get top heavy. Glad you could save it in time. I have taken to scrubbing my stones every res change. Keeps them going for somewhat longer. I have also heard that soaking them in vinegar helps too.

Eh koohows it going...I had a light go out on me the other day and came home to almost the same scenario bro! Almost had a heart attack... They do bounce back nicely tho...I tie mine up on a rack with at least one string on the main stock for this reason cuz they do get very top heavy...And to answer a past question bro i have had any problems with magnesium deficiencies using kool bloom...I keep my pro bloom going at all times in the back ground...Ive decided to go with liquid karma as an added supplement when flowering cuttings directly from root structure to flower...Im going to do this for the first couple changes then cut it out and go with powder form karma for the last stages of flower...Glad to see ur girl bounced back

Ive been lurking around...LOL. I am waiting for some misty to finish and others...LOL my Hindu kush and Himalayan gold wont stop going vertical. I had to take "measures"..LOL

Well, I built a dryer like albfuct but excluded the heating element. I do one day in the dryer and one day in papberbags and alternate untill the big stems are snappy/bendy. (hard to explain). then I cut all the nuggies off the main stems and jar them. I burp for about 20 minutes a day. If the the buds seem really moist I pull them out of the jar for that time or more. I am still working on getting my dry/cure process down pat. I was dissappointed with the afgooey I harvested. It might be gaining some potency but was a dead fish really. Its still in the jar though so well see if it gets better with age. I can say, wait.. wait untill its like 1/4 to 1/2 amber on the trichs. Ill try to get some pics tonight and post them in the journal.

So you did have magnesium problems with the kool bloom. werid? I wonder how come. Another week and couple days days then I can flush and cut her down I can't wait. Im gonna use what I have for fertilizer for now and then try somthing new. The maxiveg worked well but the bloom nutes I don't know. Just seems like I have been having problems dis coloration on the fan leaves papering drying out. I don't want my babies stressing.

No kool I did not have any problems using KB magnesium or otherwise,LOL everytime i try to answer this question i either lose track or mispell! On another note im going to stick with it until i find something better as far as organics goes...With KB MY buds seemed to mature quicker and swell fatter but u will definetely notice a nice out put of the frosting...
U have to start slow with it and not finish hard it seems...And compensate less of ur main flower nuts when supplementing.

Maybe that was the problem I was hitting her pretty hard with regular maxi bloom nutes and then adding 1 tsp per gallon of KB. I just took her back 1tsp of maxibloom for 1.5 gallon of water and 2 tsp of Kb for 1.5 gallon of water. I'm lost. LOL I have 3 more res changes before I go into a 2 week flush. Changing my res every three days. My air stone is getting clogged up pretty good. And just trying to hit her good with some nutes before end.
That makixbloom is like 5-15-14 then the Kb is like 0-10-10. Maybe I will make up a bottle of half strengh nutes and do some reading on nutes tonight.
I did cut like 6 little branches off the bottom of her like 2 weeks ago. small branches that had tiny little buds and hairs on them. put them above my light for a day and then tossed then in the mason jar for a few days. My buddie smoked them tonight said they were kinda hash but he got a ilttle high off them. To me that is awesome. By being around him after he smoked just those tiny shit as buds I'm looking for ward to somr good head high sativa can't wait yhea yhea. :bigjoint:

I really can't man I so phyced I went through my first freal grow. what an experience. I just can't wait to enjoy the fruits of my labor. The bud is drying in the tent I have a heater that goes off every hour and stays on for a few min to kick the heat up and then it kools off over the hour and then back up agin. I have it hanging by a srting inside the tent blowing upwards so won't burn the tent.
