You are growing in coco?? You are watering with too high a ph. Treat coco as a soiless medium and ph 5.8-6.0 Water it at 6 and should bounce back
god bless u sir (regards ph)

So i was just reading about these new pots called air pots. Heres the link.

http://www.superoots.com/air_intro.htm

These look like the ultimate mother pots. May have to give it a try. Also if your worried about getting root bound in a long flower period these could be the answer. check it out folks. Peace 1BMM:bigjoint:
new pots bmm indeed lol (only messin bro), my 2 girls in the airpot are taking a long veg 2 maximise em :) Don GnT has done really well. we shall see for myself in about 3months...

https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/113408-1st-seed-grow-cowboy-style.html go 2 end 2 see the pics comparisons ;)

have 2 agree with the lads DoeEyed they look plenty healthy from here ;)

some really good info guys and girls, cheered me up after my 430mile round trip 2day lol

Hey McPurps I checked out that link you posted for your soil. I dunno man I think you sshould still treat it as a soil less medium. It says it contains peat moss and coconut. Im not sure how good those 2 combine together because peat moss is very very acidic like a 4.0 ph and the coco is a neutral 7.0 I use peat moss for my grow medium and I add dolomite lime into my soil. Imnot sure if you wanna put dolomite into coco?? but from what i was reading if it was my plant I would adjust the ph lower to 6.0
well i use this soil in veg to and they are always really healthy in veg watering with a ph of -6-7 and they are healthy for the first few weeks of flower and then the third week hits and bam yellowing starts. its been like this now for three grows i will be watering with a ph of 6 now like u say to see if it helps i wont go lower though cuz if thats not the prob it will be if i go lower im gonna go talk to the owner of the grow shop here and see what he has to say about the ph cuz he has been usin the same stuff for years with no probs so i am gonna ask him later today thanks for all the help WW420:weed:

is it the same soil ur using? is it one from a normal shop or a grow shop? have read that soil can change ph somewhere, after a few weeks? dont quote me though lol

edit - remember seeing ur post about the soil before but didnt look bro, sorry lol. dont really know much about that soil but have u checked the run off though?

I agree With DST Ms Doeyed. Them clones look mighty happy to me. How long have they been in soil, Or a better way of puttin it. How old are the clones. If you just cut them they are going to be flimsy and droopy till they root. It appears to me they have and your well on your way to some happy plants. Good Job :clap: 1BMM
Thanks guys! Those ladies are six and a half weeks from cutting. Had a bit of trouble getting them to root, it took almost three weeks. Only four survived out of ten. Pic of the day they were cut for size comparison. Built a stinkbud cloner for next time!

thanks too, u just gave me a good idea for my clones, i have a redundant fish tank! have had some good and bad luck with clones. at the mo i have a propergator with a heat mat underneath. sitting on top is a "blue" T5 striplight for growing plants in an aquarium. there doing really well, all praising to the sun, no yellowing yet :) been about a week. watched a youtube vid on cloning, said that they like warmth for root development. good luck :)

edit - nothing like a pic 2 tell the story :) apparently cutting of the big thick bit helps??? thought i'd give it a go lol

Man this thread moves fast. I was out for a day and I cannot even find where I left off.

Hey MCP, great that other folks have chimed in, and we are looking in deeper to find the problem.

bastad i just spent 10 mins looking for this so i could rep ya and it said. "You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Integra21 again." ffs
Sorry. So just go rep some people and come back and rep me. Problem solved. It seems like you have to rep about 10 other people before you can come back to someone.

Just thought I'd throw in some pics of a Headband I chopped today. I was quite surprised she is in the state she is at 8 1/2. Normally no amber to be seen.....

So here she is in her littleness, quite cute I thought.



You can see the snap on the main cola


A side nug:




The snap



Hey 1BMM, glad to hear your beans arrived. Weyhey!

Thanks for keeping it strong at the 600.

Peace,

great read dude...i usually cut thru roots when i get rootbound either thru neglagence or lack of space but the idea of pruning roots when repotting is very intresting..ive seen workers at the garden center rip flower roots apart when seperating but ive always been kinda weary about choppin off ganja roots but i will give it a try with a couple bagseeds

I read about 'upcanning'...when you transplant you can take a razor blade or knife and cut down the length of the soil about a half inch into the root mass. It's supposed to help unrootbound??? them and also where the roots have been scored the root system will throw out feeder roots from the scoring. I go from a party cup to a half gallon grow bag to a three gallon container. When I transplant from the grow bag, I just cut it it half, scoring the roots in the process and then dump the whole thing into the big container peeling the bag away. I don't think you want to do away with the tap root completely masonman. Doesn't it supply most of the water to the plant??? I seem to recall reading that is the main function beside being the anchor for the plant in soil, again?

that headband looks small but delicious. Dont know to much about the strain, is it a light yielder?
depends on how you grow it...(veg and pot size) I have topped and also left one to grow normal and both plants yielded exactly the same. This one was a small girl, but has finished super quick. Gonna be checking the rest tomorrow (most are still fairly green looking though)
Compare that to Thelma which is also a Headband, she's a decent sized girl.

Good evening friends. Mr clean face just stopped by with the beans. Very excited. I got a nice suprise with my order too. Some UFO Dinafem freebies. Here a list of the newly aquired strains.

1 Great White Shark
2 Lemon Skunk
3 White Rhino
4 Train Wreck
5 Cheese
6 Church
7 Arjan's Stawberry Haze
8 Hawaiian Snow
9 UFO Dinafem White Widow
10 UFO Dinafem Blue Widow

And withoud further ado the pics.







As you can see my camera is a piece of shit. I cant seem to get a decent close up shot out of it.

Now im not going to be growing all these at once. I am gonna have to decide on 2 for now being im in to far on this hydro setup. If i where in soil id prolly go for 4-5. Still not to late i guess. but id need a hella soil for 15 5 gal buckets. I like soil growing. Weel see how work pans outr for me this year. Hydro is by far more expensive. Well thats it for now my friends. Still aint been down to the cave yet. Got some work to do in there. Will update the Bonsai mum pruning tech a bit later. Peace out my friends. 1BMM.:weed:

Fantastic buds MCP. Tons of gland production.
Bit nitrogen deficient, what do you think?

I'm pretty sure we have duly impressed each other with our growing prowess. I know I'm impressed by the stuff that's posted on the 600.

What I'm curious about, what method of growing produces the highest yields, indoors of course. Is it the DST step method, jigfresh and his massive vertical scrog, integra with his very impressive scrog grow, topping, lst'ing. Less plants, bigger pots, longer vegging times. Smaller pots, more plants and less vegging time? I hope I got everyone correct with their grows, this is from memory and we all know how a stoner's memory is...


Opinions.
