I hope so easty. Got that nagging feeling that I flipped before they were ready. Hope it doesn't come back to bite me on the bum.
Lol, I reckon you'll be sweet. You can at least double the size of them, maybe even triple and that will give you a fair bit!I hope so easty. Got that nagging feeling that I flipped before they were ready. Hope it doesn't come back to bite me on the bum.
I pulled a pound last run (4 plants). It was a long veg compared to this one. Be interesting the plant weight difference.Lol, I reckon you'll be sweet. You can at least double the size of them, maybe even triple and that will give you a fair bit!
Ahhh bugger, yeah I doubt you'll end up with a lb. Will be very interesting to see thoughI pulled a pound last run (4 plants). It was a long veg compared to this one. Be interesting the plant weight difference.
Hahaha had a feeling he was a boy!Number One (front and centre) showed balls and has been burnt in a fiery inferno.
Lol, bloody hindsight hey!yea..so now I'm wishing I had of vegged longer..
All good- still dialling in and experimenting with the set up.
Yeah I always veg into the big pots for a few weeks before flowering but hey, they have leg room, they could fill right out too with big chunky budsPots are to big for the size of the plants so that's a bit of a prick in regard to watering and feeding.
But in saying all that, everything is looking fine right now.
They look like they are not quite right,I think they are a bit phosphorus deficient a bit pale looking too. Have you changed your feeding or soil mix this round ?
pics are taken with the flash and are under florescent lights, I think that may make it look worse than they are. Having such large pots is making feeding difficult. A watering lasts close to two weeks ATM.They look like they are not quite right,I think they are a bit phosphorus deficient a bit pale looking too.

Notice how some of the leaf stems and vien down the centre of the leaf are a red/purple colour that to me is a sign of phos deficiency which may not be from a lack of P but a lock out/inability to access the P that is there.pics are taken with the flash and are under florescent lights, I think that may make it look worse than they are.

Last watering (last night) I hit em with PK13/14 and Canna Flora and Nu Life Mega Yield (similar to canna Boost ive been told) with a small amount of Cal/mag. So its first lot of flowering nutes. But yes they are not as green as id like and they are pale.
Ive been chasing my tale the whole grow and I recon it came down to having them root bound in the other pots, transplanting them and then flipping before the root ball had had a good chance to spread out and tap into what should of been available in the soil (its basically the exact same soil as last run) Does this make any sense to you? or am I way off track.
Maybe its something I'm not suppling enough of. I just had a look at a pic of the scrog I did last run and it has the same red on the leaf stems. Maybe I'm missing something in my fairly basic soil mix. Come to think of it I think you may have mentioned the same thing then. Whats an easy amendment to use?Notice how some of the leaf stems and vien down the centre of the leaf are a red/purple colour that to me is a sign of phos deficiency which may not be from a lack of P but a lock out/inability to access the P that is there.
I’d be looking at adding more perlite to your soil I don’t like having soil wet for more than 2/3 days max even with the outdoor plants in the 30 gals if the weather is clear they will go through a full wet to dry cycle in 2 days.
Your idea about the root binding may be right,I find when I get issues like deficiencies it’s usually a couple of little things that on their own wouldn’t cause any grief.
For a long time I just looked at the veg stage as being not too important but really the veg is the most crucial part of a grow if they aren’t 100% before you flip them your starting way behind the 8 ball.
Phosphorus is one of the trickier nutrients I find,there’s a big difference between Phosphorus and available Phosphorus as it is easily locked up in the soil that’s why we are starting to see more P solubilising products now Mammoth P is the main one you see being used by pot growers but Ag guys have been onto this for some time now there is an estimated 10 billion dollars worth of locked up P in farm soils in Australia.Maybe its something I'm not suppling enough of.

Heres the pic.
