Roots suckie suckie nitrogen phosphorus and potassium to the green leafy thingies and when no more nutes in soil leafs yellow

Relax people, all I meant is plants do starve for nutrients in the end of their life cycles in nature as they rippen 'cause they have depleted the soil of nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus.Flushing with 1/4 strength is just mimics this. I'm just trying to help others and give my opinion...I...

What i meant is roots begin to run out of nutrients in soil and leafs yellow....like when you flush. But thanks for the smart ass reply.

Framers DO flush.

Mothernature does flush, when grown in dirt, most leaves yellow towards the end as the plant has sucked all available nutrients from the ground and mother nature does not keep adding nutrients. That said, I like to know how long a certain strain takes to rippen before making plans for...

Your seedlings will be fine for two weeks...the primary leaves(I forget the right name) have all the nutrients the plant needs for the first two weeks of life, two weeks after sprouting, your plant starts to eat. You do not need to feed them anything for the first two weeks.

Oh and BTW no worms are harmed for casting harvesting...they simply screen the shit out...worms don't go through the screen...if I remember correctly, I've seen a news report done on worm farming.

Yes, you need nutrients or your plants will probably not make it past week 4. I use canna brand, you need coco A+B nutrients......4 ml of each per gallon of water, that's how I do it...I also add 2 ml of calmag per gallon. Every feeding from seedling until flush(2 weeks prior to harvest...go 1/4...

They are worm castings(poop), not dead worms....and by buying them you are supporting worm farming (more worms will be born to supply the demand if you buy it). It's saving the planet compared to all the other chemicals you could use. Just buy a cube of pro-mix, fill up your pots and plant...

Your mix is still considered Hydroponic since all nutrients come from the water you give them. The worm castings have some nutrients but no where near enough what the plants need....it is mostly beneficial for the healthy bacteria. Keep watering them with 5.5 - 6.5 pH nutes and they will be fine...

lol!

nute burn

Did it take longer than 15 days to root? I've seen some clones do that before when they take a long time to root. In my case it was over soaked rockwool. I say there are three possibilities here 1. Clones too wet 2. Clones too...

grow in coco with canna A+B coco nutes and a little calmag = no more problems

I know what your problem is, humidity and heat too low. Put them in a warm humid area...that's what they like when they sprout.

My guess is nutrient lockout, 6.9 is too high, you should be closer to 6.0, I grow in coco/perlite and keep my pH around 5.8. A pH of 6.9 would be ok if you were growing in soil....coco coir is not soil. Don't wait too much in between waterings, I never go more than 48 hours without watering coco.

Not sure i'm reading this right.... 1/2 liter per plant every 4 days?...When in mid-bloom? Are you sure they aren't dry at the bottom of the pots and that would be why they aren't feeling so good?

even if you get pollen sacs, it won't change much since you are 5 weeks in. It would take a week or two after the fuck up to get male flowers and by that time your buds will be close to done.

Thanks for the advice, I'll look them up in the future.
