Not able to post pictures at the moment, but here is the description:
My setup:
230 watt's 10 23 watt CFL's in various positions around the plant. The growbox is roughly 4x4, with one fan inside the box and another fan on top for exhaust.
My soil is happy frog with micorhizae as a base and I threw in some blood/bone meal and earthworm casings (about the same ratio I have been using successfully on all my plants for about a year now). I am not adding other nutrients during flower.
I put my tap-water through a pur filter and let it sit out for a few hours to a day before use. I do not come from an area with strange PH. Nor is my PH off from what I can tell, although it is tougher to tell with soil. The only way I can figure is to water then test the runoff at the bottom with a PH strip to test for irregularity.
Anyways...
I put this plant into the same flower room that has been flowering plants successfully for over 12 months, around June 21st.
It is now August 20th and I just finally started getting the white hairball part of the flowering stage where you know things are starting to occur.... That is like over 60 days of 12/12 at this point.... that is one problem....
The other thing is a very very slow necrosis of the leaves. Throughout the entire flower, I have noticed that the leaf tips turn crispy, but maintain a green color. The leaf slowly crisps from the outside tips and eventually over the course of two weeks on average, will kill that leaf, and after over 50% of it is gone, I just remove it.
The plant is able to produce enough new leaves to keep going, but it is just a non-stop process...
I have not noticed any signs of pests.
Any ideas? Thanks for any replies in advance!
