55 days into flower and dry leaf problem.

hi all,

this is my first grow and my plants are now 55 days into flower and i started the flushing process yesterday, i plan to flush for 10-14 days. i have noticed that the leafs on my plans feel very dry to the touch and also the very top bud feels dry and i was wondering if this is a part of what happens when they are coming towards the end of the cycle or something else. any advice would be much appreciated.

cheers

i think its common as the plants are puttin most effort into the buds and the nitrogen has been dropped while flowering, dont worry about it too much, top bud dry? maybe heat, or its jus getting ready to die, other wise mature, and at the end of its life, good luck

Thanks for the reply, yeah i was wondering too if maybe it was a heat problem aswell but with it being my first grow i wasnt sure wether it was all apart of the process, but that does make sense.

cheers

Very normal....


when you say you are going to flush for 10-14 days....

what does that mean? Are you watering everyday?

thanks for the reply....i have a hydro system that is set to water 3 times a day without any nutes added, does this sound ok?

How long will they be watered for (duration)?
What medium do the roots sit in?

thanks for the reply, i am using rockwell cubes planted in pots with clay pebbles and total time watered for the 3 times per day is 115 mins.

cheers
