Day 46 since 12/12 flip. 10-15 days ago i started noticing some fan leaves being of a pale green/yellow. I realized the HPS was too close. Since the colour didnt become green again, and the plant on the back got the edges pointing up, but seems to be doing well overall. What are your...

The ties were not used on this plant, they were used with another and i just left them there. The fan leaves of the second node are like "glued" together, they never showed growing tips. Ill try to get more info on the seed and update.

Hello RIU. I have this plant that is growing in a way ive never seen. Its developing the branches from the first node and does not develop the main steam. Side branches are developing the third node. What do you think?

Forgot to say i am watering everyday due to oversized root mass for the pots i am using. Everytime i have around 10% runoff

Hello RIU. Wanted to know your thoughts on giving the pots a heavy watering/some kind of flush every 3 weeks. Im taking about watering with 50-100% of pot total volume. I'm using salts and feeding once a week. Mix in pots is: 50% potting mix, 30% perlite, 20% earth worm castings. Cheers.

Hello RIU. I want to know your opinions on how much ppm of Mg you like on your watering/feedings. Mel Frank talks about dissolving half a teaspoon of Epsom salts on a quart of water for Mg def. According to my maths that would be about 250ppm of Mg. On other part of the book and comparing to...

I have the PK boost to add to the bloom nutes. The mix of both would give me a NPK of 3-10-9. I also have Epsom salts. Will add them next watering.

Plants seem pretty happy with new watering technique. Today i couldnt water until a few minutes ago, one hour before lights go out. So i only gave a little water for them to use before going to sleep. Will try to get some pics tomorrow.

I try to ask questions only after doing some reading and being able to formulate question while giving as much info as posible. Really thankful for all your answers. My pots are supposed to be designed for root prunning but seems they dont do it so great.

Frigault, really thankful for your help and answers. You gave me more than a handful of great tips to take into account. I'm working on that confidence and learning process of reading the plants. More than a few times i gave water in consecutive days because i just felt that the plant need it...

Today when lights went on i found that 2 of 3 had a little runoff. How slow should the slow watering be? I mean how many minutes between each watering?

I think i got it. Let's say the pot holds X water. Following waterings should need 50-70% of that volume, allowing a maximal runoff of 10%? If i achieve runoff with less than 50% X volume, it was too soon to water. If it ends up needing 70-100% of total volume, i should have water earlier. If...

Plants seem to have responded well to the feeding, will pay attetion to see if defs continues. Today i watered in parts, and didnt get a runoff with volumes i used to get some. What can i know from this? Since i am pouring water in intervals the root system is drinking it all? Or maybe i...

Yesterday i fed with the bloom nutes, 3-3-4 instead of the 3-2-3 veg nutes. Will see how they reacted and keep updated here. I will also go with the slower watering technique Frigault explained. Thanks to everybody.

Some pictures of the three plants. All defs are showing on the lower third.

That plant is one i killed, it ended up being a male. I water every other day and sometimes every day, depends on how i see them. Will switch to the 3-4-4 nutrient tomorrow.

In this grow im learning to read my plants as you stated; i believe i did a good job on not burning them but now i must realize that they are just hungry and want more food. It's also coherent with the stage the plants are on. I'll upload some pictures tomorrow. These are ones from a male i had...

I was feeding @ 50% as the norm. The third feeding was @ 25% because i gave it 5 days after the previous one and thought that it was "too soon" to give another feed at 50%. Maybe i'm being too cautious.

Hello RIU. Data about my grow: Indoor 400W HPS 3 x 4gal/16L pots Strains: 2 x RQS Northern Lights; 1 x Super OG Kush Medium: Mostly potting mix from my local market, peat moss based. Then 30% perlite and about 15-20% EWC. Dolomite lime. Phase: Day 17 of flowering Nutrients: Hesi, only used...

A deload is a phase of training were intensity and/or volume (normally both) are reduced. For an advanced lifter, a deload could aso include things like pronunced change of stimulus. Maybe a powerlifter who takes 4 weeks without touching the barbell but still training with other stimulus and...
