Allright. Rescued some clones from a buddies backyard. 13 Totally neglected, crammed together afgooey plants. They were about two weeks in to budding already, and he had just gave them some bat guano - the first food they've ever had besides water. They're in 1 gallon grow bags in organic soil, and laughably, sadly, confoundedly rootbound. :roll:

So, transplanting them is out because they're budding. Also, I have another grow and don't have roomn for them there, so my only choice was to set up something temporary in a closet under a 600w. The garden area is actually great, with perfect stats of 71F, 44% rH, and a real dark black thanks to some plastic and velcro tape.

Here's what I think is wrong with them:

Super deficient, all the colors on the leaves are washed out. There's light spotting, pale mature leaves, and pale new growth. Since they've never been fed, I can assume they're deficient. Plus, we've had a rainy summer so they're all washed out.

13 x Agooey, 3+ weeks in to flower. Have been inside 7 days under a 600w digital HPS.

1 gallon grow pots
unknown organic soil w/ pearlite and recently top dressed lightly with ag. lime
Botanicare CalMag+ (2-0-0)
Happy Frog Bat Guano (0-5-0)
Humic Acid (0-0-10)
AN Bud Candy
Unsulphurated molasses

I added ag. lime to the soil because it's acidic, and guano is basic. If I am feeding heavily I want to keep the soil from dropping too low in pH.

It's been 3 days since they've been fed and water, and they sucked it right out (rootbound, lol). I will probably feed and water again tomorrow. Lemme have it?

I would just give them a decent feeding. They don't look that bad. Within a few feedings the will be green'd up again and should be growing like a weed.. no pun intended

If it's real afgooey then i would recommend reverting one back to veg
I have 12 large ones in veg in my other garden. They came from the same mother as the ones I am budding now. I've had those ones for about 4 weeks in veg, am taking cuttings this week and budding on 9/15/11.

I firmly believe unless you completely overdue it, that the too much nitrogen during flowering is BS. I feed lots of N during flowering and they don't stretch, not airy and flowering isn't delayed. I'm pretty sure blood meal is slow release but not 100% sure. You want them greened up now right? Probably want something that is available a little quicker. But the blood meal would be good for long term, ESPECIALLY into flowering
