    Is this burning or a deficiency? (Pics incl)

    Thankyou, the faq helps. Nute burn makes sense, as I'm using quite a lot. Ive just flushed the plants, they needed water anyway. We'll see what happens. I don't have any problems with insects really, definately no gooey shit! The odd spider or wasp but they're in my attic so you have to...

    Is this burning or a deficiency? (Pics incl)

    Hi guys, Ive been growing skunk 11 for about 6 months now and I'm still ironing out a few problems. It seems when my plants begin to flower (abou 10 days into 12/12), the leaves start to yellow and die. I have worked out that they had a potassium/phosphorous deficiency, because I'm using...

    I'm gonna put up some more pics tomorrow at 3 weeks into 12/12, but Ive gotta say I'm really impressed with myself. They're looking really good and keeping cool enough I think. Every day when I get in from work I have to take a look and see how much they've come on, even in just 24 hours you can...

    Just a quick update to say I've topped the tallest one. It was nearly 2 ft. Luckily the plants seem to be ok growing less than a ft away from the lamp without burning, although they are drinking a lot. The tops are green and healthy so I'm happy. Should be a good little yield experiment...

    Seeing as I had a problem with overwatering I have been particularly careful not to do it again, but now I'm a bit worried about under-watering. Because the bloom room is a little warmer than it should be the plants are evaporating more water which is causing the heat stress you can see on the...

    Less than two weeks into flowering and white hairs are popping up everywhere! There was never much question about whether they were female, because they were feminised seeds, but how cool is it to see for the first time! There are a couple of pics below, although my cam isn't great for close...

    Here are those pics, the first of my two flowering plants. They have both had some heat stress which happened while I was ill, but they're getting better. The second is of my two computer fans extracting hot air from the bloom room. They are right over the front door and inches from the bulb...

    Hey everyone, sorry there haven't been any updates for a few days but Ive been ill. My plants are still doing well. I have two plants in the bloom room (greed got the better of me) and both have been on 12/12 for just over a week. My air cooler is doing a good job of keeping the small room...

    Bloody Mail Order! Still waiting for my contactor, so I can't use the bloom room yet. I thought about just pulling the one plant out of the veg room after 12 hours and putting it in the dark to get the ball rolling, but it could be here any minute, and the plants not yet a foot tall. It's been 4...

    Hey k-town. Thanks! I'm starting to impress even myself. I fyou have a look back through the thread mate there are pics of my whole grow area. I use 4 flourescent 40W tubes for my veg area and have had 4 plants in there for the last 4 weeks. You should be able to get an idea of how big the area...

    lol thanks mate! I've got to get a new lighting contactor too because I only got one with my original kit so I'll stick one in the shopping cart. Great minds think alike! Cheers!

    Sorry I forgot to ask if anyone had ever used a heat shield and whether it was worth it or just reduced the concentration of light and therefore not good.... Here's an example Ta! UK Hydroponic Systems,Nutrients,Grow Mediums,Lights,Rockwool,PK13-14,PH

    Ok another quick update. As tomorrow is officially 4 weeks into veg for two of my plants, I have decided to begin 12/12 with the HPS for just one plant. I'm gonna start now before it gets too tall (using the tallest) and basically use it to test the conditions of the bloom room. As my only...

    growing durban poison x skunk #1

    https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/6834-how-lst-low-stress-training.html Try that out mate. I started after three nodes worth of growth (about 2 1/2 weeks) but it was possibly a bit soon. I could have waited longer because the stems are still flexible and they're at nearly 4 weeks now...

    My first grow! Skunk #1!

    Yeah man get those cfls closer, they don't get too hot, and you're soil looks really saturated mate. Be careful not too over water (voice of experience!). Good luck!

    Haha, thanks guys, as it happens the details are still up for debate! I think it was a bit of a knee jerk reaction. Still whatever happens, I'm gonna put the kid first.......

    Thanks guys. I hear what you're saying silk, so maybe upping the nutes hasn't cured the yellow leaves, bt the plants certainly like it! Maybe it's the bigger pots, I'm not sure... The problem worries me less and less every day as I see new growth and development. Anyway here are some pics at 25...
