Could anybody tell me what am I doing what in my flowering room?

It turns yellow leaves as soon it start flowering all the way until the end, it has barely any leaves.
Buds does not get thick as it should be, I'm only harvesting a quarter each plant. Thats only 1 oz every 4 plants. :( :(

I'm using 2000watts air cooled but it gets over 80 degrees in there so I added air conditioner and max it out. Its now says 70 degrees on the digital and 77-79 on the mercury tempature. I have no idea which one is right but when I enter the room, it gets cold be when im under the lights, its pretty hot. I'm using 1 tablespoon of Catalyst, 1/4 teaspoon Kool Bloom and my ph water is always 5.0 or color yellow for testing water ph. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong here, can someone help me? I seem to get the vegging perfect but not flowering. I can get it SUPER crystally and dank but it won't grow anymore everytime I switch them to flowering.

EDIT: Forget to add that I have the lights 1 1/2 feet above the plants

So I figured out what was the plm. I been adding dry Kool Bloom from the start of flowering till harvest not knowing its actually an enhancement, not a regular flowering nutrient. Dumb me >_< So I will be using Fox Farm Tiger and Bloom for flowering until the last 3 weeks, I will be switching over to dry Kool Bloom and Gravity. Question for experience growers: Am I still be able to mix the 2 Fox Farm flowering nutrients along with Gravity and dry Kool Bloom in 1 gallon at the same time at the last 3 week of flowering?? Although next month, I will buy alot of different nutrients to see how each works out. First I will get the liguid Kool Bloom. I was told it works wonderful with dry Kool Bloom I have now. Also, I'm thinking of getting molasse. As for the vegging nutrients, I will stick to my maxigrow and cataylst but I'm thinking about getting Humboldt's own Bushmaster. I hear it work great for making it bushy and more yield. 2nd question for experience growers: I'm new to foiler feeding so i'm currently using catalyst and maxigrow as is said on the direction for foiler feeding, do anyone know what the best nutrient I should get seperately for foiler feeding for vigiorous and rapid growth? Also an update: I will be using my Romulan momma to start the S.O.G full of romulans soon! :) :) I will be harvesting the romulan s.o.g every week. I will be doing 60 at once under 1 1000watt light on the right side and the normal grow on the left side under another 1000watt light. Another update: My camera broke so I will be getting a new one next month. No worries it'll be in no time till I post pictures up of my new and improved grow so hold your horses. :D

No one has nothing to say? or even answered my questions? I guess my grow sucks but that was only because I been feeding them the wrong nutrient for flowering. Im such a dumbass

how long are you vegging them for before you go and throw them into flower?? the longer veg time you give them, the bigger your yields will also be..
even though your starting off with clones for the most part, you can give them plenty of veg to let them get nice and big so that you'll get more yields..

with the fox farms your using, it should help some with the yellowing as well... a lil extra nitrogen during flowering will also help to keep them nice and green will help as well.. i've been spraying mine in veg with some worm casting tea, but i don't recommend you doing so in flower.. you can always mix a lil worm castings to your plain water as well, and that should help with the greeness
i would think that cuz you had screwed up the nutes, it could have a negative effect on yields as well.. hopefully now you've got that under control, they should start to yield better for you, although it may be a lil late for this grow..
my whole thing is though would be more veg time for them, and they should really grow for you before going into flower..
hope that helps some.. and how far is your light from your plants??

I vegg them until they are between 14-16in and when they have more than 5 tops. I started using a method topping all my plants to yield more. I only harvest 2 oz out of 15 plants. TWO FUCKING OZ!! sucks :'( and now this 7 plant will yield probably 1 1/2oz. So fuck it. All cause I started from early flowering all through harvest using Kool Bloom dry. I will be switching to straight FoxFarm nutrients for flowering. But I'm wondering if I can use all the Tiger Bloom, Big Bloom, Catalyst until the last 3-4 week, then water with Tiger Bloom, Big Bloom, Catalyst, dry Kool Bloom AND Humboldt's Gravity? Is the first 3 and last 5 too much during their time of flowering? Cause I don't want to fuck up my next 25+ plants I'm planning to grow. Oh and the lights are about 6-12in away

Edit: My flowering room picture up above has been improved, I will be taking pictures soon.

Hey I'm rocking a micro grow right now on fox farms trio. also investing in some beastie bloomz, cha ching, bud candy, and gravity. Your yield will be better if you feed them correctly. I water with Big Bloom everyday. Ex: Water (mixed with some big bloom, I don't even measure i just know how much by now 1 liter is supposed to get). Then the next day I water with all the right ingredients depending on my schedule. So i Feed every other day now because they are Flowering. It won't hurt to water with Big Bloom everyday just depends on your budget and if you want to buy it a lot. If you aren't getting good yields you probably want to make yourself a Schedule (Fox Farms, You can print one out) and just follow it. Get you some additives for later on in your flower. Now I'm only on my first grow but I have learned a lot so far. I read, read, read, read.... lmao. Looks to me you have alot of room for a nice and long Veg Time, the full 4-5 weeks should do it. and With a 400 watt I don't know man. You should be getting lots and lots of buds with your strains (from what i've read about). Just try to stick to a daily routine of feeding is my guess, they are getting out of whack and are very stressed out and not yielding correctly.

You can use Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom all the way till that last flush. Again, go on their site and print out their schedule. But if you are ordering their products they should send you one in your box.

I'm looking at 1oz from 3 plants in a micro grow, give or take if I can finish it out alright >.< lmao

Is using Tiger Bloom, Big Bloom and Catalyst too much for beginning flowering? and is Tiger Bloom, Big Bloom, Catalyst, dry Kool Bloom and Gravity too much for late flowering? I need to know because my girls need watering tonight.

hey, one thing i think ur supposed to do ph like 5.8 for clones and babies, and work up to around 6.5-6.8. I think 5 has some nutrient lock out and may be of some reason. Also, maybe if you don't have to worry about plant number do a sea of green. Cover the entire floor with three gallon pots and maybe flower them around a foot tall each just one top on all of them. im real new to this also but i think that would help. got any co2 enhancement? seems like you could probably afford it, try and get something to add ur ppm to 1500 that's supposed to be a good level and at that point your temps could go up to 90 even and it would still be fine.

Why everybody think im using ppm, hydro stuff. I know nothing about those stuff. Im using just rockwool mediums on some and rockwool that act like soil on some. I mix everything in 1 gallon jug and hand water every plants. I do a ph test on each gallon in a small tube and add the tester and the color will show yellow (6.0) 3 or 4 different green-dark green (6.5-8.0) 3 or 4 different red-pink (5.5-3.0)

the ppm i was talking about was for co2 amounts in the air. if you get a tank you look at how long to turn it on for for the amount of space it covers to get the right ppm of co2. I thought you were doing soil actually but all the same watering. you said you fed the 5 wich i don't think is good.

ps there's always the 70 dollar or even cheaper ph testers. real help during watering for total clarity. something's off though, cuz this is .1 gram per watt i think. Dunno, real loaded right now thou
 

budhead500

Member
I better not get no .1 gram. My ph is just fine, its always at the color yellow on the ph tester which is 6.0-6.5. Also since no one know the answer to my question, im gonna go ahead and do all 3 for early stage of flowering then all 5 nutrients for the late stage of flowering. Let's hope all goes well.

less is more. just remember that. You really need to get fox farms chart and just go by it. sure its ok to add other nutrients along just lower all the dosages if your going to do that.
