    3-4 weeks in to flowering my fan leaves are starting to yellow very fast

    I guess it depends on if you have them on actually drippers or like mine are just open holes so water flows alot more quickly than using an actual dripper. Yeah I suppose I make sure the coco is totally saturated once a day. And yes coco is different, something about water retention and it...

    3-4 weeks in to flowering my fan leaves are starting to yellow very fast

    http://www.hydroponics.net/i/131589 That is the pump I got. It works fine and all the lines give out water evenly. I actually feed every day with nutes all the time. I just fill up my res every other day. I clean it every week or two. I have it set up right now where I just plug it in and i will...

    EC/PPM meter?

    Hello all I have a few questions regarding a EC meter. Does an EC meter also give the PPM? or do I have to specificly buy a meter that shows both EC and PPM? Also does anyone have any suggestions for buying one preferably a less expensive one. Thank you

    Something about that Irrigation kit though, I didnt use alot of what came with it so you could probably get away with getting the parts individually for cheaper.

    3-4 weeks in to flowering my fan leaves are starting to yellow very fast

    I fill up my res every other day or so the nutes stay fresher and I will take it out every like 2 weeks or if I see its dirty and clean it with bleach and water. For my drip system I just have my plants in pots of coco with a make shift drip ring in each one. What I did was order this...

    3-4 weeks in to flowering my fan leaves are starting to yellow very fast

    I am ditching the OF and never looking back to soil period. Trust me once you make the switch you will be very happy with the results. Also it simplified a lot of things for me. I dont have to mix soil up, I just use 100% coco. I clone straight in to coco with better results than any other...

    3-4 weeks in to flowering my fan leaves are starting to yellow very fast

    Yeah actually surprised me how well shes doing! If you look at healthy one and the one I had the problem with side by side its clear that the healthy one has a lot more leaves on it but as I said the buds are about the same size. I think she lost just under half of her leaves so I am kind of...

    3-4 weeks in to flowering my fan leaves are starting to yellow very fast

    I was feeding them off the feeding chart for GH for growing in soil. I am adding cal mag to tap water that I leave sit out for a few days before I use it. By the sounds of how little nutes you were giving your girls that was your problem. Next time try upping the dose of nutes before you start...

    3-4 weeks in to flowering my fan leaves are starting to yellow very fast

    An update for anyone who is curious or is having the same problem and looking for a solution. I have her stabilized and shes not showing any more signs of yellowing. There were two things I did but I believe that only one of them had an impact. The first thing I did was transplant in to a bigger...

    Yellow leaves everywhere

    It sounds like your underfeeding them. I am going through this now and I just got her stabilized and I did that by upping my dose of nutes more than what the GH feeding chart says to. I guess if I learned anything is listen to what your plants want, not what is "recommended" by the suppler.

    3-4 weeks in to flowering my fan leaves are starting to yellow very fast

    So just an update, She is not looking worse so I think I have effectivly stopped the yellowing. I am pretty sure I was just underfeeding them. I am a little concerned about the redding of the fan leaf stems. Is this something that will go back to being green or is it something like the...

    3-4 weeks in to flowering my fan leaves are starting to yellow very fast

    Thanks for the heads up on the root rot, something I didn't even think about. I usually water every other day but I always do the pot lift to see if the need it or not. Is there a good EC meter you could recommend? by the sounds of it, it would be a good investment. Shes not really showing...

    3-4 weeks in to flowering my fan leaves are starting to yellow very fast

    Also another important question I have been going back and forth about in my head. To up the dose of nutes should I A: feed nutes that are the same strength as they have been every time I water instead of watering with plain water in between feedings B: Make my nutes 1/2 times stronger and...

    3-4 weeks in to flowering my fan leaves are starting to yellow very fast

    Yes it makes sense, thank you for the input GK1! I already flushed her 3 days ago and gave her a feeding yesterday. It is very strange that it is only happening to one of the 5. They are all getting the same nutes, light, temp and yet only one of them is affected. This is why I was thinking root...

    3-4 weeks in to flowering my fan leaves are starting to yellow very fast

    Just keeping this thread updated, Gave the ladys a heavy dose of nutes and I dont see any signs of improvement but also I dont see it getting much worse. I thought of the possibility of it being root bound and I transplanted into 5 gal pots just now. It didn't seem like they were rootbound from...

    3-4 weeks in to flowering my fan leaves are starting to yellow very fast

    I was going by the GH feeding chart for soil and I guess I need to be more aggressive with the nutes. Thank you all for the replies and I will be keeping this updated. I am going to give them a stronger dose of nutes and see if I see any improvement.
