That will be my strain name when I start to create my own! Dibs!
:beast: What a beast!! I will be growing another one of these in the future for sure. It was my biggest yielder to date and I grew her under CFL's. The smoke was great too. She might become to much for me to handle growing her with LED/CFL's. Give her the time she wants. Mine went for 100+ days but well worth the wait.\

to the chops for a monster ST!!!!!

Day 73
These ladies have taken me on a long road to learning.
So we'll start with the three that have been driven home.
1) know your nutes, research them to exhaustion.
2) calibrate your ph meter weekly
3) always keep a watch out
And here is the story
So here we go. About a 1 & 1/2 months ago it started with yellow fan leafs on the bottom. No problem. She's a monster and those leafs aren't getting enough light. Check. Week later start to notice ever so slightly the upper leafs where starting to yellow a bit, to be expected seeing how she's in flower and I'm feeding flower, no problem add a bit of Grow Big as stated in feed schedule, 1/3 dose should do the trick, no problem. Check. Next water starting to notice spots, ah oh, cal/mag problem. Hum, ok unusual but add cal/mag slight problem but ok. Check. Three days later just before next feed BAM! Full blow cal/mag problem. Spots on most larger leafs some small bud leafs curling with edges brown. Now what did i miss? Never a sign of nute burn, never a sign of over nitro, even started doing a run off test, not my style but will not over look great advice form my peeps. Every thing ok. SALT BUILD UP. I did a sledgehammer flush when I went from veg to bloom so I wouldn't get a nitro tox. Now we know why
pushes the sledgehammer flush. Ok, I get it now. Lesson learned. They must derive there nutes from salt based methods. But before I post this on my thread I will do my do-diligence and fact check to make sure I'm right. DAMN.
Ah but wait it gets better! Well worst actually.
So I did a complete 8 gallon flush using Sledgehammer which completely removed all salts, but what they fail to tell you is only the first gallon should contain sledgehammer. OOPS! Sledgehammer is made with a yucca plant extract with loosens up the soil and as I learned the VERY HARD way will cause you plant to lean to the point it will fall over. Compiling problems, massive careless mistakes. With all that throw on the heat from a much to tall monster plant in a smallish grow room with a 1000w hps and you have a disaster. Well almost. With the lessons learned and the fact that she was a fox tailed beast she will make me tons of hash. Yes she made it, but the frustration caused by my own ignorance took a heavy toll on my self esteem. Nothing like a huge dose of humble pie to put you in your place.

Sorry to hear about all your problems man thats a really unluck streak you had there.
You really have to watch out for cal/mg with autos, you really have to get on top of it way before you see it on the leaves or else it will take a while to actually stop doing the damage. i learned that the hard way on my first grow and still got prolems thiss grow.
I guess every grow is a lesson and you will just keep getting better and learn something new every time. i wish you luck and grow karma for the rest of grows man.
