Some more updates, day 28, the older leaves seem to be suffering from nute burn, I'm gonna cut down the nutes a bit.. quite a bit of droopy leaves, I've been on vacation for the past 4 days and I didn't water but they still droopy so god knows.. Any suggestions? Quite a few scrawny leaves at the top aswell.. :(

you need to feed...your plant is deficient, the fading to yellow/brown spots is from not enough nutrients...feed asap and keep feeding til she greens up again!

she has been underfed for awhile now .... feed me please.

Judging from what Zibra said, I took the conclusion she'd been overfed because:
1. She's got brown spots/tips and blades look 'burnt' so to speak
2. Zibra only uses 2ml of each per Gallon. Whereas I used 3.7ml of each per Liter. So it's kind of got me confused :(

I just flushed, I'm gonna see how things go for the next two/three days, then I'll chuck in some nutrients later.. Thanks for replying bro

Hey guys just got some more pictures for day 37 still in Ve, waiting to sort out the problems before flowering.. I over watered when feeding her because the medium takes weeks to dry out! so if I need to water more frequently, I worry I'll over water. Judging by the brown tips and the droopy leaves I'd go with that, definitely hungry atm, I just can't feed because the soil is already really wet :/

Something I found quite cool, one of the smaller tops decided to split into two. I don't know if you can see it, but it's there lol Day 37 (2).jpg

Here's some pictures.

Just another update.. 2 days in on 12/12, i've recovered her from most issues, everything looks good! She's getting big!

Waiting for my PK13/14 to arrive..

Feeding at 3ml each of Canna A + B per 1.5L. Seems to be doing fine! :)

what do you think?

I'm growing with HPS and 3 CFLs for supplimental lighting..
I haven't really got much money to spend on nutes, I have some PK13/14 which I have just used for the first time today.
I used
20ml A
20ml B
7.5 ml PK13/14 in a 5L bottle of tap water.. Last feed I only put half of each by accident, so this should make a big difference..
I'll chuck some more pictures up in about a week or so..

Thanks for the responses

I grew TD and found she didn't like being LST'ed. Also was very sensitive to nute changes. I used Maxibloom from genhydro - KISS formula all the way through till I had the bright idea of putting a plant food tablet in the soil. Big mistake! She went hermie on me and I had to chop earlier than I would have liked.

Still got a good amount of smokable bud and some very interesting QWISO/ hash oil out of her though.
Your plant looks pretty good.

Just be aware things can always go wrong with this strain if you are not careful.

Sup dude. Thanks for the comment man appreciate it!

Quick update - Day 39 of Flowering, some obvious Magnesium or Calcium Defs but that should be sorted soon
How long you think she got left?
I'm looking for 1Oz+ off her.. What do you think I'll harvest?

Enjoy

yes its showing major deficiency...use full strength! does it say how much Mag/Cal are in your nutes? i don't think there is enough...or your not feeding more often, whats your water schedule...eg water/feed/water/feed.

at least 3 more weeks to go ...pick up a mini scope or loope to check trichomes with ...soon as you see a bit of amber trichomes time to chop ;)

good to think big.... but you are only using a 400w, so dont think you'll hit that goal?.....but doesn't hurt to try!!! my guess 3-4oz dry:bigjoint:

Lol I meant 1 Oz. I think i've already hit that haha.
And I'm still using the 150W HPS since the 400W was too hot with cooltube :(
I am using max strength atm. I Feed with every water because apparently I can in coco. It does state how much Mg. It states 2%. Of what I am not sure. But like NPK is 5-4-3 so if it was NPKmg 5-4-3-2 lol..I think i've done okay for a second grow. But I really need to invest in Cal/Mg.
Thanks for the reply Lime.

oh ok that sounds more reasonable..lol
yes indeed you have surpassed an oz! :mrgreen:
your only using the 150w? well...how far away did you have your 400w?
should about 12" for the 400......... and 8" for the 150.
Mag is good at 2% long as you feed full strength! does it say Calcium % content anywhere?

its all part of learning man...still got budz!:bigjoint:

the temp in the box was 37c with the 400W and that was with the light as high as it goes :/.
And Calc is at 5%..
I'm going to try get the 400W going next time though, and through a few more seeds in.

Yeah I've learnt a lot with this second grow. I'm already looking forward to my next grow. Wanna try a 12/12 from seed next :D

should get a bit better once you feed more:mrgreen:...yah sounds like you have ventilation problems with the 400 being on...we can definitely work on that!
12/12 from seed would be interesting...i know a few buddies that do this technique with great success ;)
