nice grow man! ive always wanted to grow some durban poison but never had the space or time to do so, hope the buds are killer! :P
 
some new pics. the buds haven't really grown that much since the last week but they are steadily growing. I'm going away for 2 weeks at the end of april / beg of may and I REALLY hope they are either done before that or can wait until i get back (ill have someone here to water them) because i really dont trust anyone else to properly chop and trim and dry them :-(

anyways the tall new purple power plant is now 7 feet tall!

so the tall plant is starting to get more and more yellowing leaves. Is this normal in the flowering process? I'm assuming since now i'm feeding flowering nutes that are low in nitrogen that this is ok or should I be worried?
 
I'm glad I'm gonna start flowering early if the purple powers stretch that much. I'm gonna have some bushs on my hands before long!
 
yea its normal, cant wait to see some buds :)


does this still look normal? it seems like a ton of yellowing! maybe its normal though. i pick off the ones that are dying/yellowing but there seems to be more and more everyday.

are you feeding nutes everytime you water ? those are some big bitches
 
Looks kinda like its starving for nitrogen to me. They use alot of N when they are flowering. Maybe ramp up the nutes. Honestly maybe a bigger pot too? those plants are huge.

Thanks!


i'll try increasing the nutes and see if htath elps. I dont really want to transplant them since they are pretty far along and i've already transplanted them a couple of times. I think i'll leave them in the pots they are in (its a 6 gallon pot).
 
That is a decent iszepot something you could try if you want is whats called pot-in-pot. You just cut the bottom of the pot off and set it ontop of another pot of soil, the roots grow down, and do what ever they want, without any stress to the plants.

i believe your tall plant is root bound... it needs a pot as big around as the plant and very deep... that thing could have grown into a 25 gal pot... i agree with the pot on pot plan... that would be better than nothing right now. great job by the way.

alright thanks. After thinking about it a while it seems probably easier to do a transplant rather then trying to saw off the bottom of this pot so I'll go buy a 10 gallon pot or something like that today and transplant it in. thanks for the help! I also upped the nutes a little bit and added some grow nutes so that there would be more N in it.
 
ok i transplanted the tall one into an 11 gallon pot last night. It was kind of scary/hard but in the end nothing bad seemed to happen. I added a bit of bat guano to the soil as well. hopefully she will like it better in her new home.

added some new pics...
