Underfed?

This is Double Glock, which is a pure indica.

We're at about 50 days since she popped. I overwatered it about 2 weeks ago. It has been watered 1 time since. It seems pretty good, but I'm questioning if I've been under feeding it.

It's fell behind my other one considerably(Special Kush #1). When I look up Double Glock, it says it's a heavy feeder at about 2 weeks.

I planned to start stepping up the nutes now anyway, but just thought I'd ask for some opinions...

Given what I read, and what I see, I'm thinking I've got some deficiencies going on...

This is mainlined, and since it was, those middle fan leaves are the old growth, and the outter ones are the newer growth.

You can see that distinct color difference between them...

The lighting in the picture makes it look far more pale than it actually is (it's under 3500K 90CRI lighting in the pic).

Anyway, just looking for some thoughts....

yea maybe a bit or could be left over from overwatering. Get rid of that heavy ol promix (guessing thats what I'm looking at) keep in in cloth, areopots or homeade vented pots and coco and you will never again need to worrry about overwatering... You can water as frequently as they need, so if you see a deficiency no need to wait to a dry cycle, just feed em...

mjcanada, you need to give more info for better help. how much have you fed and how often? what soil are you using and does it have nutrients? what's the light? what's the air temp?

Light is cmx-22 gen3 @3500k 90cri on a 20/4.

Soil is a small amount of generic potting mix mixed with black earth compost, worm castings, vermiculite and perlite.

Temps are 68-72.

RH 49-55%

She has only been fed organic nutrients (dirt'n'grow evolve 312) at half strength 2 times.

She was potted into the current pot about 6-7 weeks ago.

Also should have said, the potting mix was 20-20-20, but I am sure that fertilizer is long gone. So it's basically been getting half strength nutrients from that evolve stuff... which is basically seaweed extract(a few varieties), bat guano and potassium hydroxide... it's the only nutrients I can get in my parts... I live up north in the Canadian hillbilly parts :P

I have white spots/speckles on the tops of the leaves. No webs, no eggs, no bugs at all.!!!! I'm not new to the gardening world. I grow my own food and can it so I know what bugs can do.... the leaves are not dying either. I read that it could be a zinc shortage. Does anyone have an idea of what it is?I've had growers tell me "they had it once too" . But they can't tell me what it is.... This is my first time growing. Plants are in the flowering stage and looks like harvest in 3 to 4 weeks. HELP ...

transplant into foxfarm ocean forest soil if you can find it close to you. use at least a 5 gallon (20 liter) pot, or bigger. bigger would be best, like twice as big. there's fertilizer in the soil so you won't have feed much, if at all, until late in the plant's life.

Got to get some thicker skin there bub.

I said please in my rely. Another gave you instructions on how to post.

One other reply was a bit snarky...

Snowflake got his feelings hurt and he doesnt want to play with us anymore.

There... now you can quite RIU with some purpose.


Back to my issue, thoughts on the feeding?

The new growth on the lower nodes are even lighter than the new growth on top top nodes. Seems like a mobile deficiency (N).

I peeked in on tgem bedore work today. They werefed yesterday and the new growth looked ever so slightly darker...

I will upload some pictures tonight.

So here is a new picture.

Something else I've noticed is that leads me to believe underfeeding...

I am starting to see purple on the stems. This plant, since about 2 weeks ago had zero purple. Everything was (although on the lighter side) green...
20170911_212433.jpg

It is hard to see in that picture, but right around where the garden tie is, that's where some purple has started to form.

Anyway, curious to hear other's thoughts on the underfeeding conclusion I've made.

You can hit me up with any help you need. These guys don't even know when to feed a little nitrogen. :lol:

Hahaha,

For the record, Honeybud can hit any of us with questions... but we'd rather not get our posts hi-jacked.

Thanks for the confirmation on my diagnoses fdd2blk :D

Personally, I didn't/wouldn't take offense to anything that was said in response to your post... I've seen a lot worse elitism on the internet.

It makes me wonder if you've ever been on the internet before with your reaction to the "do it right noob!" responses.

Forums, reddit, etc, they are notorious for elitism... and RIU isn't even that bad at all.

Go try and hi-jack a thread on reddit in any topic even remotely close to geeky (gaming/programming etc)... you'd get eaten alive hahah.
