Thankyou marquezmurder Its my third grow, But the first grow that will be 100% mine, no outside investors, no borrowed equip etc.

And this is the first time Ive tried to run 100% organic. Im coming over from the fox farm trio and never really had any issues. But also being the first time Ive ran this Greencrack hybrid ive also got to learn what she likes as well. The purples, hell, they dont seem to give a shit what I feed em lol, They seem to do good organic or synthetic.

The three little mangos in there, they were neglected clones that I picked up from a buddy for free, got them all nice and healthy and they look like they will return the favor, they are filling in nicely.

No problem buddy. New strains/phenos are always a learning experience. Im going to have my first self funded grow with my next house, right now im trying to tune in my organic growing, my roomate wanted to do the trio but i didnt let him. You can check out my 10 gal smartpot girls in the link for my signature, running 40%ffof 40%ffhf 10%wormcastings 10% hydrotone rock.

They got sweet myco tea and kelp through veg. Tea water kelp repeat.

now they are w2 of flower and they get 1.5 gallons of water 7.5ml age old organics bloom. Water feed, sweetmyco tea, repeat .Im going to top dress my soil with kelp meal and fishbone meal in week3.
So far I had a small lockout with my cheese, but she is also the most tempermental because she is root bound. Flush fixed it.
Im gonna go update pics

Hey Rollitup, I'm lost atm and cant figure out what my girl needs. Shes heavy into flower and I can't seem to stop the yellowing. I want to keep her as happy and healthy as long as I can. Is this just normal yellowing, Do i need to Give some N or did I mess it up completely?



If you need any more info let me know! I can tell you whatever you need to know if I didnt cover it in the video

PH sits around 6.8 - 7

5gal ocean forest
5gal smart pot
3 cups worm castings
1cup sumatran bat guano (8-3-1)
Also feed with a aerated tea that consist of some castings and batguano. Stopped a month into flower and switched to Bottled nutes.
BioBloom (1-2-2)
Calmag General organics
and just bought some biothrive and thinking of giving it a try next feeding. rather than biobloom
Nitrogen deficient. So called bloom nutes most likely to blame. Cannabis plants need a balanced diet, 3-1-2, from start too finish. Dont listen to those that say its normal for them to yellow during flower.

a good grower does not let their pot gets rootbound..how did flush fix this?

how do you know you got nute lockout?

no offense..i've never heard of flushing to fix a rootbound plant..by restricting her roots you get less of everything IMHO.

it's normal in the last 2 weeks for "fade"..however, you can tell the difference here because only some leaves (overwater) are yellow and the rest brown..like over nuted fried brown..how can he be nitrogen deficient with one of his add on's being an "8" for the nitrogen?..those plants are fried..and more than likely unsmokable because of being fried..have you ever tried fried? it's horrendous..still have a jar from grow #2 many years ago..this guy is on grow #3..typical of newbs..they think they know all..it's a shame because now this guy wasted all of his time by having people tell him add this..no wait! add this..

less = more

roots, roots and more roots..you need roots to yield, plain and simple.

I never claimed to be a good grower;) and a flush did not fix my problem of her being rootbound, my transplant will. Had other plants to spend last weeks resources on. Maybe we have different ideas of rootbound. But either way my flush stopped the yellowing on my leafs. Hygrozyme was added to the water. Ph6.5 runoff. Dont ask me im no chemist;)

just asking..not trying to be mean at all and sorry if you took it that way..i'm always interested in new "tips and tricks"..that's why i asked because you said it fixed the rootbound read your post.:mrgreen:

No, my bad. Inproper punctuation, the flush fixed only the nute problem. The roots are still in there bound up from all that myco, no secret tips here. Btw thanks for all your input, you helped out here a lot more than I could even though the reverse ossy water was my hint at ppm. I'm always down to exchange knowledge, ill follow you after I get off work:D

"some leaves (overwater) are yellow and the rest brown"

There are yellowing leaves(from the bottom up, seems to be the older sunleaves yellowing first), But there are not any brown leaves, none of the leaves are Burnt, or brown. just yellowing. One leaf has a few spots on it. rest of the leaves are still green

The bat guano hasnt been used since day 28ish(its day 50). although i mended in a half cup before planting.
When i made the tea I would use a 1/4cup bat guano and 1 1/2 cup castings in a tea bag per 10gal and bubble that for two days then feed Until I switched to the bottle nutes.

Is it possible this plant exhausted the supply of Nitrogen in the bat guano and that put into the soil before planting and now its just wanting more?
