DAY 54
I gave the girls some more florabloom today. About 25ml to 2 gallons. Hopefully they like it. It doesnt jump the PPM up very much. I put a little maxigrow in it and it was at 670~. Ive noticed what i THINK is a iron deficiency???? Not sure and would REALLY appreciate any help. Ill post a picture so you can see what I mean but the outer leaf is green and the inside is yellow. its kinda hard to see in the pic but ill post it.

And here are the 3 of them loving the 400 watts


Anyways, Does this actually look like an Iron issue?? I ph'd the run off and going in it was 6.5 out it was 6.1 so that means the soil is 5.7?? Its getting close to the end so i want to make sure there are no issues. Thanks for the help Guys!!!

My guess is that they need N (Nitrogen),but this is my opinion.Keep them green and happy.

Looking good. Would need a closer pic of the buds on that middle one, but it almost looks like it's finishing, and also looks like it wants more N, but you don't wanna give a whole lot during flowering. See if their color comes back after that feeding yesterday. Otherwise your plants look healthy. :thumbs:

Yea it didnt really change much from yesterday. The Florabloom has a 0-5-6 NPK or something like that, but it has no N in it. Thats why i put a little of the maxigrow in it because it is like a 14-5-10 or something like that. The middle one is more frosty than the other 2 but its only been 55 days.... I dont have a microscope yet but ill get one and check it out. Is that too soon to be done? Should i just start to flush it now? I was hoping to cut on 4/20 Which would be about 76 days

Well i can see some of the buds filling out more and getting really frosty!!! I accidentally brushed one with my pinkie while i was folding a fan leaf down and my finger was glistening . They smell very good too!!! Ill be trying to get a microscope soon to check to see when they are ready to come down. What about this for curing in jar?? I figure they are cheap enough that i could get a few

Thanks

anyone?? LOL. I think that the one big one is getting close to finishing. Should i just flush with straight water for 2 weeks? And how much regular water do I use? Is it 3gallons to every 1 gallon of pot size??

Hey brah, you are at day 54. My guess is that they will cannibalize the fans for another 3 weeks. Need a better pic of the buds and sweet leaves to be sure, but I would feed molasses or a carb loader like Bloombastic for another 10 days, then flush for a week or 10 days. That should add a lot of bud for you. If your trichs are more than 20% amber AND the pistils are 90% red/orange then you need to flush immediately. Flush with an equal ratio of water to pot size (gallon for gallon, or liter for liter) as needed for a week at least. Nice grow! Enjoy!

Cool man thanks . They are at Day 58 right now. I need to get some molasses. I looked over Sofa's grow and he harvested at 84 days. I know that all plants are not the same but this kinda gives me a general idea of when to start flushing and what not. How would i do the whole flushing process?? It takes about 4-5 days for my pots to dry when i feed them about 3/4 gallon of water and the are 3 gallon pots. Ill try to get some better pics this week some time. They are looking really frosty!! Thanks for the help !!

Hey dude. Sorry, got lost... Sounds like you got it..2-3 more weeks. The flush at the end, we call cleanse. This is just simply feeding plain Ph water with nothing else for the last 10-14 days depending on nutes. Chemical nutes need a solid 2 week cleanse.
