Got some of that leaf tip wrinkling I was seeing as well. Nice. What week you on? I started to see some fading in the leaves around 5-6 tried to fix it but ended up burning her :( It was like the whole plant changed to a yellowish green colour and my leaves got some nice pink-purple-red edges to them.

yeah. they're in 3g. i veg them longer than i should with those. so it might be running out of room/food..
whenever im poppin new beans, i like to use 3g instead 5g.
about week 5-6
my thing on fading leaves. just let it go. whats done its done. your just chasing a rabbit down a hole if your trying to fix it.
my experience. it takes awhile for the plant to realize there's food again.. bout time you fix it, it will be harvesting time.
i expect to see slight yellow around week 6. that way i know they ate up most of the food there.

that sounds like a good rule I should follow from now on :) I've done more damage late flower then I've fixed.

Hopefully you get some of the beautiful reds/purples/pinks I was getting. One of the most beautiful plants and loveliest smokes I've grown.

Need some full plant shots:D. Bud structure looks pretty similar to what I got. You getting any colours out of it yet?

Don't know if my clones took :( they look awful.
Leeroy has been pretty difficult for me to clone as well. They take forever to root and when they do it's wispy little hair sized roots. The clones dont look healthy again until a week or two into veg.

the one I transplanted is showing new growth. Im pretty happy. I was afraid I was going to lose her. My water source has been giving my plants fits. What was filtering to 0 stopped working and I was giving them basically tap water at almost 700ppm.

you should try this..
i built something very similar to this.. dont want to show mine for security reasons.
pure oxygenated rain water. plants love it... i look forward to the rainy daez....
i couldnt stand the 3 to 1 waste with RO's

EDIT: tip- when it hasnt rained in awhile. let it run freely away from barrels for about 20-45mins depending on down pour or until water clears. then its ALL GOOD.

That's a pretty slick looking system. I've been mulling over rain water collection for a while now.

do it... after its done, you'll be saying, " I should of done this along time ago "
your really on easy street for water. you'll be surprised how quick it fills up..
if it down pours for 30min all those barrels in the pics will be filled up... too easy..
and ... it last me at least couple months...
i do have my barrels in a shade tho.. i've read somewhere about sunlight/uv not good.
and to access, i use milk jugs and a funnel with a paint filter screen to catch any debris.. very little...
on top of the down spout. i have a gutter strainer, so it those most of the work...

if its been a drought. i fill it up with tap water and let chlorine evaporate for 3-4 daez. never had any problems with that.

all this cost about two bills or about the same price for a RO..

EDIT: unless you can get the barrels free from craigslist.. you cut your cost in half...
make sure to get food grade barrels!!!
