plant 2.jpg
single leaf.jpg




Late Novevember,noticed preflowers, transplanted into material pot.

I have not written facts down as I grew,My memory is not fantastic but as close as I can be,here goes.
1, White pistils have been showing for 5 to 6 weeks.
2. Sativa dominant I think as leaves are narrow.?
3. Started feeding veg N.P.K 10 2 6 throughout veg all great.

Feeding Rock Resinator N.P.K. 0.7.8
Started feeding 8 mils per 2 litres , cut back to 5 mils per 2 litres (suggested medium dosage 8 mils per 2 litres).Three weeks into flower tips started browning.
Water 3 days apart unless it is needing earlier or not needing.(most times 3 day,s).
Regional area so no chlorine in water.
Temps mainly 30 to 34 degrees throughout day.plant receives 6 to 7 hours a day in the sun.
Medium Coco coir from bunnings. 80%
Perlite 10%
Organic soil 5%
Peet Moss 5%
Pot is material 510Litres.

someone will know what I am doing wrong I hope.

Looks like a bit of nute burn going on. Are you still feeding some of the veg nutes so she gets some nitrogen too?

Do you know what your water is like? PPM and pH are important details and you should be able to contact your regional water supplier for a copy of their water report for free. Minerals in the water can contribute to nute burn and toxic salts buildup in the leaves. Your nute levels seem a bit high especially for a sativa leaning plant as they are not big eaters like indica varieties can be. I don't know those nutes tho and use AN 3-part so am going by that.

Very few fingers on those leaves for something so sativa looking. Generally they are 9, 11, 13 or even more. Where did you get it from?

I'd remove any dead crispy leaf, especially the stuff closer to view in the pic. It's a likely a little early in flower for bud rot, but just check no pockets of mold have started. Dead leaf material in the colas are an open invitation for it to start.

I think you've been too heavy on the "Rock Resinator". Browsing their website they're suggesting 10mL / gallon. At 5mL per 2L, you're already very close to the maximum. On top of this there's your 10-2-6 to factor in as well.
Sativas are generally lighter feeders as well. It's more of a marathon than a sprint.

I'd dial your pk booster right back, I think you're applying a little too much love.

How long has the plant been growing in this coco?
I don't think a little dolomite lime on top would hurt. Looks like there's a ways to go and it'll likely need a little further down the road..

All the best and good luck

You don't say if you've been adjusting pH. You're mostly coco so you'll want to treat it like coco and pH the nutrient solution. I try and get mine at 6.0 but others like it lower. I've never been a fan of mixing soil, peat, etc... with coco. If you grow with coco then grow with coco. Same thing with soil. But some people make it work using a mixture of different things.

That definitely looks sativa and they typically don't need a lot of nutes. There is definitely something going on because that plant should be much bigger if you transplanted in November. Plants still need nitrogen even in flower and if all your feeding is that Resinator crap you're not giving them any nitrogen. In fact that stuff is just diluted monopotassium phosphate with some potassium hydroxide to adjust the pH and not worth the ridiculous price they charge for it. You can also stunt plants by overfeeding especially in flower when you can end up with stunted flowers that don't grow especially if you overdo the bloom booster which is what you've been feeding with that diluted MKP in a bottle with a cool label and name. Rock Resinator, give me a break. It's monopotassium phosphate which you can get 20 pounds for the same price of that bottle that's just water and maybe an ounce or two of MKP. Do yourself a favor and get some real nutrients for your next grow. Megacrop, Jacks, GH, etc... You need a complete nutrient not just additives.

It also looks like there is some bug activity. Those little white dots/spots on the leaves so make sure you look at that closely.

Also, some sativa's take a really long time and you may even need to change the lighting to 10/14 to get them to finish. I'd get something else started if you can and get what you can out of that if any. You also didn't say what you're using for lighting.

Give 6 to 7 hours of sun only light source it gets.thanks heaps for info,will look for Megacrop ,Jacks GH.
I am in Australia so not sure I can get the above but will try anyway.thanks all the same for your time.
I do spray with neem oil.I finished Indica grow that was very successful,I just did what I did to Indica and thought all would be ok with this grow.
How wrong was I, wow.

I have never checked PH but will do for sure.

No when it started flowering I cut the veg nukes out completely.oh dear.thanks mate.
A friend got me some seeds but never new what they where.Still don,t but getting clearer know.
Seeds are so expensive so asked a friend to get some for me.He does not know there origin either.thanks mate

It's not just a matter of cutting the Rock Resinator. The plants need a balanced feed. Coco has nothing in it. You need a feed with micronutrients and NPK. You're likely feeding too much P & K while starving the plant of nitrogen and micronutrients at the same time. You don't need to use any of the products I mentioned and seeing how you're in Australia you're probably limited to what's available locally and shipping is probably ridiculous if you order online. You could head to a Bunnings. They have a bunch of stuff including liquid trace elements and other fertilizer products.

Good luck.

Read up on all sorts of good stuff.

I found a great spot to download FREE POT BOOKS . I downloaded a grow bible first and got lots more. Books look great and complete like the real ones I have here. No web site but just a page of links. Just right click on what you want and then "Save Link As" to download so they don't open first as many are 50+ megs. They got lots. Enjoy.

:peace:

Well you're starting with bad genetics and going downhill from there. I hate plants that grow like that. I have had plants that grew like that in the past and nothing good came from them. Good luck on learning anyway.

Just because someone doesnt know the genetics doesn't mean they're bad..

I wouldnt be surprised if they're actually excellent considering all of the Aussies coming and going on vacation to SE Asia and maybe bringing back some landrace seed from Thailand or like regions..
It's the growing skills that need a bit of tweaking.. :)

That said, I agree does look like that plant was landrace
