Nice one ta bro . . . . .





Just a note to add to more newerssssss, no amount of the plant consuming itself will sort out a deficiency, only you, the grower can stop the process!!!

Leaves turn yellow because they are being stripped, the plant will not repair itself . . . .you will need to add more of the element it's robbing itself of . . . . . so another way, the plant robs itself because there is NOTHING left, it's not doing it to put things right . . . . .for a better day tomorrow, if there is one . . . . .

I fully agree!! I really dig your comment about leaving the leaves to do what they do until they are done! I leave mine on the plant until they are dry then crush them over the soil. if they fall off I do the same. I also re-use my soil so there is a benefit to adding the leaf material to the soil in the long run. I also add all of the harvested plant waste to the soil after it has dried. Waste not want not!!!!

When I started off growing in soil, I had a zinc def..I didn't know that at the time, but in my compost bucket now, I now add about a half dozen galvanised steel nails, bashed down a bit.
The compost works to release the zinc, which I add to my next grow, then put the nails, if I can find them, into my next compost batch, it doesn't need much, as its a trace element, but I've no more def. problems, as far as zinc is concerned.

No worries there m man . . . . our plants will give off a number of subtle signs they are reaching maturing, one of those signs are few sexing flowers at the internodes . . . .

Another is the stem or branches going from a parallel pattern of growth to a stepped pattern . . . .

Got my Mono in Canada . . . .I'll have a hunt, I'd be surprised if it's not here, shit hope sot, 1/2 left :?

Can u find Bio Genesis Mineral Matrix near you?

A deficient plant, knowing exactly what it's deficient in, twice praps three times a day, once and hour after lights on, another a few hours after, when the stomata are defo open and working ;)

Not sure how effective folia feeds for def. plants fair at lights off, never done it.

Sounds good to me, I'll try it out, but also my nutes have trace elements (all the ones you listed earlier) I wonder if I should feed the girls also with the spray?!

But also want to know all the preflowers in getting... Is it normal for every single inner node gets a preflower?

Yes, spray, soil drench if it's not too drenched already . . . .

You just need to get trace in her like quick already! ;)

How you do it is up to you, but folia feeding the trace elements, or what ever product you have that contains them, will be the quickest way to deliver them :)


Pre flowers is goooood bro . . . . . more the merrier :)

Been spraying my plants for a day or two now, but one of my plants still has some sort of problem.
Also there is a picture of the whole gang and you will see that 3 out of the six are doing excellent, but don't know why the other three are struggling...

Ah there you go then, as there are different strains, you're likely to find some will diminish certain elements quicker than the other strains . . .

The Tangie Ghost Train . . . . do you know her lineage ??? Is it Little Chief ??
