Hi, here are the pics. Like i said they are going into week 4 of flowering tomoz and have been in batmix soil for 4 weeks. i have done the epsom salts thing and was wondering if i should be giving them some nutes now?

 

[kevin murphy]

yea think there short of n.....start the feeding at 1/4 strenght and bulid up..your better doin a flush first before the feed then when flushed start with the nutes..imo...

 

[chuckles01]

Ok thanks, i dont think i will use the batmix soil again as i dont know if they are getting enough nutes. Should i leave the leaves on or take them of though? Will they last until tomoz as dont need watering just yet? also if i flush it wont be until the time after that i can add nutes?

 

[kevin murphy]

u can add nutes after the flush and u can flush anytime dont be chopping fan leaves off unless there dead and by the looks of it there not...

you dont need to flush imo ... flushing is for removing excessive nutes in the soil ... you dont have any ... just feed with 1/3 - 1/2 recommended feeding nutes and build it up to full nutes over 3-4 waterings

well this is highly fertilised soil and in my experience (which isnt much) I have used similar soil and have had sighs of salt build up or too much nutes and a flush worked a treat , the plant went a little yellow but recovered within a couple of days , also can a flush hurt? if it doesnt need it will it do any harm?

 

[chuckles01]

so i can flush even though they are still wet from the last water and dont need it?

Well not to be a dick, but why would you flush if it doesn't need it?

In the men's room at work, the boss placed a sign directly above the sink.

It had a single word on it: "Think!"

The next day, when he went to the men's room, he looked at the sign, and right below it, immediately above the soap dispenser, someone had carefully lettered another sign which read, "Thoap!"

I met this beautiful woman in a club and we got dancing, she suddenly put her hand on my crotch and said, "Oh my! You are a big boy! You're certainly hiding something down there" then gave me a cheeky smile.

"Thanks," I said, "Most girls think it's weird that I bring my guinea pig out clubbing."

 

[chuckles01]

Sorry guys getting a bit confused now. Shall i flush even though the soil is wet? and this wont hurt it - right?

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

so long as you let it drain properly and it's not soaked through for days after it should be alright. only risk is a bit of yellowing from overwatering.

 

[chuckles01]

oh great thanks. so dont want to kill my first babies.

 

[Don Gin and Ton]

it's a hardy plant. you'll see once you've had a couple of runs you'll wonder why you were freaking out.

 

[Beansly]

If it doesn't need to be flushed you might wanna wait until the soil dries out. Over-water might jusr compound your problems. It strangles your plant from air and could stunt it.

 

[chuckles01]

Once i have flushed them shall i start feeding with terra bloom? or just carry on watering with plain water?
