no neute burn there bosco, they dont look sick either. up the doage a wee bit or introduce low measures of flowerin neutes, if your already adding veg neuts then flowering neuts wont throw a spanner in the works. pistils lookin good also.1916 your pretty handy with the camera-have you got a grow journal?

Hi liblah thanks for your reply , i set up a grow journal on this forum yesterday just so i can get views from other growers cause this Irish thread can be quite @ times, ill post a link at the end of this . There 26 days old 2day but my soil says dont add any ferts for 6 weeks as the soil has everything they need until then i have been giving them nothing but water since day1 , do u think its time to add a low dose of a flowering nute. As for the camera work im using just a normal 10.2 megapix digital camera nothing special i just try and get a good shot so people can see exaclly whats happening to them and if i run into trouble i should be easier for experienced growers like yourself to rootcause problems. I hope there not sick as you said fingers crossed , For your first grow everything is new and exciting but also makes you paranoid that things are not as they should be.

Your plants are doing fine man, the yelllowing is them pulling N out of the leaves so your best bet is start the nutes but a small bit every few days.Try and keep them a nice green colour I always feed just water for the first month after that depending on how fast they are growing ill will start the nutes.

Iv never grown autos tho:dunce: ha

Has anyone ever used tho's soiltabs they sell on the nirvana site? You place them in the pot/ground and they slowly release ferts? I was thinking of getting a few for the outdoor, save me the hasstle of waddling up to my spot.

I'd have the lamp 3 just over 3 ft away with a 600w..
Looking at the leaves that are yellowing have 3 fingered leaves, so I would imagine these will eventally die off with flowering in full flow now..
Auto flowerings can be strange at times...

Not heard of them.. although bought a bag of the smaller ball bearing size slow ferts.. Has 7n- 7p- 7k value so should be good all round..

MJ plants love nitrogen and use large amounts..

Must start to look for plots, and prep the soil..:bigjoint:

I've been flowering since Dec 24th.... My calendar suggests it should be harvested today, But i can report that due to the biggest freeze in 30 years the grow is somewhat 3 - 4 weeks behind...

Oh and I found this place if anyone is thinking about a cfl grow...

Buy this and clone forever...
http://www.lidl.ie/ie/home.nsf/pages/c.o.20100304.p.Heatable_Nursery_Pot_Set

Went to see it, perfect for cloning..
Even starting from seed..and then transplant to bigger pot later on..

I going to buy one anyway..... I've build my DIY one and am very proud of it.
The one from Lidl will be used once a few diffent strains are being cloned..
Providing the 13w of heat that it provides is enough heat.. you have my word you can clone almost everytime..
Breeders paradise for less than €25...

Or build a D I Y proprgator like me...

A clear storage box with black lid, turned up side down..
Heat wire placed on to lid ready to recieve potted plants and then cover with lid... dont forget to spray inside the clear container and clones with water and sea weed extract, replace contair on to lid (this being upside down on the floor)
