Day 32 of Flower I think. Been a bit since I posted so don't quote me on that. Sorry for the lapse but was working out of town and had a buddy watering but no pics.


Anyway here we are......fattening nicely and the treatment for the thrips seems to have worked awesome although did take some leaf damage.

You should have took my advice and dropped the ppm down to 1400. You should be maxing your ppm at week 4 only. Less is more in this game. You do have good drainage and high co2 ppms. I still see some clawing and leaf tip burns. By the way around week 7 lighten up on the juice. 1/2- 3/4 of what your doing right now.
Im not going to go over 1200 ppm in my setup.
What do you have for Powerdy mildew? I vape sulfer 45 minutes a day everyday till week 6.
But pk does max out at 1400 ppm in sealed rooms. You shouldnt be so zealous with the feedings.

I got my 357 magnum led in 3 days and im in the usa in so california =) I'm starting a recirculating dwc hydro setup using these leds so maybe we can compare soil to hydro using these lights =)

Dude no offense but settle down a little bit. This isn't your grow and dunit isn't a beginner. This is like the third or fourth time you've told him what to do with the feeding, take the hint, hes got it on lock

You mean this isnt the first grow he has burnt? I know my PK. I can see the tip burn and claw. This is his first time first this strain. I have grown 20 differnt crops of pk. 4-10 lights
So you settle down. Im just trying to help. I know from experiance of the strain that ive grown for two years.

No question you are the PK master but.....

Dude it takes three weeks for juice to even flow. He is starting to see burning now.
Whatever. I dont know anything. Im just a 22 year old kid right.
Anyone who grows pk knows it maxes out at 1400 even in sealed rooms. You can argue all you want but it is what it is. Im here to help.
Ask raiderman and everyone else who grows pk.

Here is a guy who thought was gonna do 1600ppm. He gets 2.4 a light and his peak for pk is 1400. Read that page. Northwest skunk is the man. He got a bit over 19 lbs when it was completly dry. So he says.
Its depends on what juice your using. Since Gh is shit it is acceptable for 1400ppm. I use AN three part at no more than 1200 in peak. week 4. I also have gh flora and it sucks compared to AN, I have proof. I only use it in veg now. I used AN connoissuer at 1200ppm and got very good results because they were bigger plants and co2 was 1800ppm and i still got burnt. 1000 max with connie. and 1000-1400 depending on what juice you are using.
Your gonna get crazy burns near the end if you dont cut back. Next time you grow purplekush take my advice.
Im not here to ragg im here to grow.

Crazy Forum drama! Just chill and enjoy the show.

easy all. great work dunnit? how tall r them ladys? sorry not kept up with this grow had so much to do. how did the last batch taste? as i think was your 1st led grow was you happy with wot the mags managed to produce. do the leds really give a smoother taste and finish.

Hey Im cool, I was just trying to get this dude to settle down a little bit with all his instructions and demands. Someone else's journal didn't really seem like the place

Can't fault your knowledge of PK....good call. My propane ran out this week while I was out of town so no co2 for 5 days and the feed schedule was definately too aggressive for that. Some tip burn for sure. Nothing major and live and learn and had dialed the nutes way back early in the week. I've had plants "claw" after treatment for pests before so figured that was presenting also.

Still, too heavy on the nutes.

Ur being too kind...

I'm pretty sure that social media advertising is the next big thing and they're gonna have to write forum code to block spammers or these journals won't be worth reading.

Wow nice photo update there dunit; makes those girls look absolutely surreal.

Btw, just finished the majority of the LED users unite thread and wanted to thank you for bringing an objective, unbiased outlook on the LED market as it stands. I'm very much leaning towards the Isis panels for my next grows, perhaps the magnum's if I want to splurge a bit more.

Cheers!

PS - Is there any way you could show us some normalized pictures of your girls? I love the surreal aspect of dense flowers under LED's but they just seem to lack the sexiness of green and white loveliness that's normally associated with flowering cannabis.
