heres a good example of overfertilization showing before burns. All my new leaves are a healthy green. The leaves that were alive during over fert were way too dark green, and still are.

Damn dude. This happened to me on my last grow... I swore I wouldn't grow any more. Needless to say, I have another grow right now. Just start fresh and learn from any mistakes you made. Don't give up.

Sorry to hear about your plants. That's very sad. They looked really good. What happened to them?

Get some seeds and start anew. Plan out your feeding/lighting schedules before you start. Decide on a determined veg period and a date to switch to flower. If you set goals, it's much easier to stay on track and make fewer mistakes. I too learned this the hard way.

Good luck!!

Peace :joint:

I was way too high when I wrote that post. I am getting paranoid is all. here are some more pictures the big one which is the younger is growing at least an inch a day now after getting over that soil flush. Accidentaly gave a small burn when it grew into the lights nothing to worry about. Fertilization is perfect now nice dark green and no signs of burning next feed is straight water.

the smaller older one is finally recovered and should start growing like the bigger younger one now except with 2 colas.

with 18 more days till flower they are going to be monstrous I think I will probably get at least 3 oz off the bigger one. It should be around 20 some inches by flower. and the little one should get there too. If they double in size that should leave them less than 4 feet. I have room for 5 feet though.

On another note I have alot more lights now I have enough to put up around 800 watts If they get big enough to allow it.

still just running 8 26 watt 6500k and 4 42 watt 2700k an inch a day 376 watts... I expect these buds to be tight as hell. HID is overrated.

You could grow alot more plants with the 376 watts. 3 lights close to the top of a plant would grow them just as well 2 26 watt daylights and one 42 watt warm. I could be growing 8 plants, and then just get an HID to flower, or just lollipop them.

I just wanted to add they would probably be twice as tall If I knew what I know now. One got nute burned and light burned, they both got flooded because of the flush, and they have had those god damn fungus flies if they hurt at all.

Big 8 nodes/ 5 inches tall /19 days old

small 6 nodes/ 4 inches tall /21 days old

That saying CFL can be as good as HID its all about proximity!

I superthrive everywatering and its seems like they love it I just started to mist it under the leaves 3x daily
As a rule if I get some seeds and I plant them then I will not fertilize untill 3 weeks but superthrive from birth.

I just got back from work and they were almost into the lights again and one leaf was touching them. no bad burn though as I have a big box fan in there on medium. lights are warm to touch.

Here are some side pics as they finally came far enough out of the bucket to take them. The big one really perked so it seems like it grew another inch after my morning post but its about half an inch.

Your plants look great sicknasty. You say you mist them with Superthrive from the time they pop out of the soil?
Nice journal.
Good Luck!
