New Grower my 1st led grow

[Nam80232]

With all the sick plants ive had, once she's starts a problem she's going to show to what depth the problem is before it starts to get better. After the flush you gave her, and im sure you have at this point, I'd let her dry out (soil) before doing anything else. When I flush I always go get me some r/o water so that I'm not adding ANYTHING to the soil only stripping it of what evers in there. Then play the wait and see game. All my horribly sick girls have gone onto to be able to harvest and smoke, all be it not to the quality it could have been but still much better then 75% of whats out there.
Sorry for the hard lesson you've learned but your future babies will be all the better for it. Much grow karma sent your way

thanks guys.:hug:
sorry a had to run away yesterday. the wife n kinds came in and a got PC blocked until now. the missus is a mod on a big forum so she has her duties of a weekend which puts me down the schedule and ma mobile still runs symbian so theres no point tryin really.

all advice taken on board.
checked ma run off n it was between 6/6.5. a had to use a reagent test kit,am waitin on batteries for ma pen and ma tds meter. av got water ready for the next flush once they dry out a bit more. the heavy damaged leaves are def dead, goin yellow n very crispy. the buds seem fine tho, theyre not dryin out so.......we'll wait n see.

whats annoying me more than anything is this.......i work in the retail end of the aquarium trade,have done for years and on a daily basis i give out the same kind of advice you guys have just given me. these are the most basic of newbie mistakes a made.
was doin so well as well......look, heres the day before they got fed

quick update fellas.
things are lookin not too bad. ma skunks lost a lot of leaves but the stems and the buds are healthy enough.
the psycho fruit is a lot better and obviously a lot hardier. shes lost a few leaves as well although theres new leaves comin out the buds with no 'burn' and theres a fair bit of new crystal production that wasnt there 48hrs ago, as you can see not too bad considerin.
thanks again for the input and tellin off dudes. sometimes its good to be reminded of the order of things and spend five minutes on the naughty step.

well guys we're at week 11 and alls well.
av read the gospels acording to St.Muddy regarding harvesting but i have a few questions.
since i had the nute burn problem i may have knocked them back a bit and i lost quite a few leaves due to die of so my timing could be of.
both girls still have plenty of green leaves on them, the skunks leaves have started to yellow at the buds but not further down.
well over half of the hairs have turned brown as well.
so my question is, when do i harvest? do i wait for more leaves to die of? the buds have def got a bit bigger over the past week, well taller anyway.
any advice greatly appreciated
1st 3 pics are psycho fruit, skunk the other 2.

well dudes....day 80 has arrived so a chopped a wee bit off the psycho fruit,quick dried it n bonged it to see what would happen. nothin much did........for the first 30 secs and then:jaw:
thats the highest av been in a long time. so much so that a went n chopped a wee bit of the skunk as well. equally as good. obviously taste is shit but that wasnt why a did it. dont think theyll get much fatter but a think ill leave them a couple of days yet to get the high 'down' a bit(a think)
so all in all not to shabby considerin.......
thanks again brothers for all the input so far :tiphat:

yeah man, am very happy right now and very stoned.

well dudes.....ma skunks been chopped and av dried her in the cupboard. as you can see the buds arnt that big but she went through a lot and gettin anything off of her at all has been a success in my opinion. the buds are dry already and av been very high on ma own supply for the past 2 days. i know a havent cured them properly or dried them properly when it comes down to it however....the initial experiment was to see if a could!
im pretty high right now so it must have worked. and the missus is smokin it so it cant be that bad.Hop digity


the psycho fruit is still goin strong though. leaves are just startin to yellow a bit so a wee bit to go yet. shes lookin super frosty and sticky like epoxy. shes a blueberry x critical+ x rudy(obv!) in case you didnt know so theres a great smell of her as well. she will be gettin treated with respect and 'done' properly.


ma afghan kush ryder is lookin frosty now as well. since theres a bit more room in the cupboard shes went nuts. she was a bit neglected for a bit due to lack of space but it hasnt done her any harm. not much side growth on her but hopefully she'll fatten up.

so...all in all dudes a healthy update indeed.
thanks again for all the advice brothers.
fell free to comment your ass's of:smokebuds:
