    Leaves Closed Together

    When you top a plant the resulting 2 branches will go up towards the light. To alter this we use various training methods. You topped it, now you want to train those branches where you want to tie them down carefully.

    1st grow - Week 5 of flowering - Temp/RH

    Ideally another vent that is controlled separately would be the best way to add more airflow and temp/humidity control. So the existing one is on the lights, a 2nd one that helps the room.

    Setting up Veg in Garage looking for Ideas on keeping it warm in winter. Insulated Grow tent or build out?

    A really good setup would be a lot easier to design if you skip CO2 imo. That would allow you to pull air from outside or in the garage, and vent it back out to either the garage or outside and change it with the seasons. Heat in the room itself with oil heater(s) would be enough and ac with...

    Magnesium Deficiency or something else?

    My understanding...could be wrong...is HP + is a peat based hydro medium, not soil. It contains 2 of the elements of soil, peat and aeration, but not any of the nutrition as fertilizer or amendments.

    Magnesium Deficiency or something else?

    Nothing wrong at all with a foliar. I think you wont need it after the first 1 or 2 apps though if the feed is corrected.

    Magnesium Deficiency or something else?

    I believe this is it...ph is too high for your choice. 6.5 is ideal for soil, I do not grow in promix but I recall most posts saying 6.0 and a few 5.8. It looks like deficiencies caused by inability to uptake. As long as you are controlling temps night and day I suggest running exhaust a...

    Weird raised burnt edges and tips

    Tying up your branches is a normal and expected task and means they are getting heavier, so don't be upset that part is going well. Its typical anywhere from week 5 onwards, and varies a lot depending upon the strain and training. It is so rare to see a thread where someone has too much N all...

    possible K deficient or Magnesium deficiency?

    Feather meal from DTE is 12 0 0, and is VERY slow release. I would guess it is their slowest release portion of the formula for N. I think I've heard 6 months + before but that's in a more unrefined form most likely.

    possible K deficient or Magnesium deficiency?

    Pot sizes look insane above 7. 7 looks big, sort of. 10 looks like a monster even compared to 5. Then again some dudes here post outdoor pots that are 300gal and the plants are 15 feet high! That's a big pot...

    possible K deficient or Magnesium deficiency?

    Its overfed. My girls were manifolded in veg for 10-11 weeks. If organic and the mix was right, you messed up on the watering. If not organic then you simply overfed or did not use a balanced formula. At this stage they should grow fast and strong because you have a nice rootball. I will...

    First defoliation and some LST… Impressions?

    I was best man for one of my closest friends, we drove up together to rural MN to visit his future wife's family and I was told he was very panicked that future dad-in-law loved guns, lol. So 5 minutes in the door I'm in the basement filling shells with one of those loaders, having the time of...

    Trying to learn to identify nitrogen toxicity

    Excellent! Keep on working it. The way the leaves lay tells us the watering story. The color of the leaves tells us what their nutrient situation is. Once you know the watering frequency is good, then you can focus on feed levels to make sure they stay green. Fixing an issue not only feels...

    circuit breaker flipped on me

    Take a few minutes to learn what is on each circuit. Cut one off and see, label it on the box if it isn't already. I.e. bathroom outlets, bathroom lights, kitchen outlets N wall, etc. Then you can run the math and be 100% sure you are safe. Electrical is SAFE done safely but you can and...

    Trying to learn to identify nitrogen toxicity

    I'm with you on this, I track all my waterings and if you use a method to decide when to water...finger, lift, probe etc, you should stay consistent with it. Even though they want to be watered more often, it still needs direct monitoring. It can change weekly, one week every 2 days, another...

    Trying to learn to identify nitrogen toxicity

    One odd thing about growing is there is usually an impulse to water or do something to the plants. Leaving them longer to dry out will show you more improvement than you have imagined so far. Let them dry out way more than you are used to, all of them, and watch the problems go away.

    This ovule (not seed) thing needs explained by an experienced grower please

    I remember wondering about this too, the anatomy charts show they are ovules and exist in every bract. I have seen this too and it seems strain related i.e. some yes some no from the same grow.

    Trying to learn to identify nitrogen toxicity

    I will put it this way...you need to water in a cycle of wet dry where the plant does not stay wet all the time. That is the only change I would make, and I think it will fix things. The droop and loss of color is classic overwatering.

    Trying to learn to identify nitrogen toxicity

    They need to dry out a lot more in between waterings.

    Trying to learn to identify nitrogen toxicity

    Hi Stunx, No that isn't it. Ntox is dark green with curling tips (downward). Your issue is watering.
