hey Kudaross, ph was about 5.5 i have taken the opp to drain nutrient tank as i didnt fill it and completely redo tank

now ph in tank is about 4.5 so i am gonna have to ph up it (should i piss in it or is there better way with no cash)

also to let u know i am using an ebb and flow system - i did 1` crop about 5 years ago using lood and drain - imo flood and drain much easier - but proof will be in the crop size and quality i guess


so i cant think it was ph really ? u think - as i now have nutrient levals measured out according to producers guidelines i hope will see improvemnt in few days - when i neaxt have some cash i will buy a nutrient stick as i dont have exact EC readings at mo :s


also aswell :p i am using canna nutrients ever heard of them?

cheers :D

came over from a thread you were asking harvest info in. On the one you got given, it's hard to say what happened before, and many leaf problems won't ever repair, leaf damage pretty much stays forever. 9-10 weeks is average for harvest windows, but it's not uncommon for 12 week strains, and not unheard of for them to take as long as 14-16 weeks. Without knowing what caused the damage and the conditions it was in, it's possible the environment is retarding the flowering slightly. Realize this opinion is heavily influenced by you saying it was still 50% white hairs. It's hard to tell from the pic (little fuzzy).

Those other plants look like they are doing much much better, and since you raised those all yourself, I'd say your on the right track. Keep it up!

cheers gobbly m8 much apprieciated

and god knows what had happened to this donaor plant i got given must have been a real problem child for previous owner - i have had it for 4 weeks so in all it is say 5 weeks behind the rest of his crop

looks shocking and dont smoke nice oh and i really must take a pic of the root mass - all that is hanging out of bottom is a mud brown colour

and yes its right gobbly there are still new pistals growing

anyway it is unplugged from the flood and drian system now - so its gonna be flushed for a week

- looking back i should never have accepted it, risking cross contamination

yeah all my girls are doing really well now - oh i have 1 plant with some fan leaves as big as my head :D

as i grew from seed not clones 3 of my girls are much more advanced then rest so i am gonna have to set up a second rezi for the flush luckily i have a 20L ish one spare + some spare pumps and tubing. an added pain but gonna have to be done :(
gonna try to get it to drain back into small rezi some how as it will flood for 15 mins pumping about 150L at a guess - i dont have a spare stop cock valve - when i jimmy something up i will post pics

happy growing

oh and i robbed some more bud off that more advanced plant that was donated to me - finaly its begining to taste good :P shame the buds arent filling out but it always has been a problem child:(
