First Grow with Barneys Nightshade(homemade box)

your over watered causeing the media to "suck up and in, tightening"... the roots are suffocating, let your media dry out all the way..... ALL the way....... then feed with light Micro nute, and then light Macro nute (more Macro than Micro )..... bout 1/3 the regular dose...... how close are the plants to the light? The closer they are to the light, the faster the damage will spread

here is a link of perfect example of same symptoms.... different part of the plants life cycle,

that pic posted before this looks dried out to me... soil is completely dry... idk man. anyways my guess would be something root related like he said. check the roots. else it could be heat but looks like it isn't because bud isn't affected as well. could be an imbalance / burn symptom or root rot, possibly

Looks to me like you've reached that 'tricky' stage at the end of the grow where it looks like you're having dry, burn problems but it's really just your plant using up stored nutrients from the leaves and 'panicking' in a way as a last ditch effort to get pollinated.... Mine did that a bit too, but I didn't have as much small leaves near the buds like that so it didn't look as extreme. Notice how a lot of the plants' leaves are turning a lighter green as well..? The same thing is happening to those leaves, but the leaf stems are longer and the process therefor takes more time - the small leaves around the buds however are small and take no time at all to be 'soaked' up by the plant and used up at this stage...

You're close to the final flushing and finishing off... push it out, do your flush and look forward to a killer harvest! You can trim a few of those completely dry leaves as well at this point if you like - your girls are done with them.

Hello peeps been awhile!!

Ive got big problems at the mo!!!!
Next door has told me that he can really smell skunk bad outside my house!!! and to add to that ive been told that there was police sniffing round my front door and next door!!! PARAAAA!!!!!

What should i do!!?? this all happend about 2 days ago and since ive topped the house up with air spray plug ins etc but still i think it smells to much!!! i havn't been using a filter and i know i should have and will do next time, if there is a next time!!!!!!!

Its day 50 of flower and im nearly done but i dont want to get caught out!!! should i cut them down now??!! im about to start flushing!!!!

Plz help!!!

Stay Strong!!

I think you shoud def buy a carbon filter, or even an ozone generator. I use both so I can live para-free.. herb stinks and we as growers become so used to it we dont realize how much it reeks

That's shitty to hear I had to shutdown op at my friend's last week. If you're going to finish it out, consider a different loc to dry or get yourself a damn good blender and know your rights! If you're going to continue on with another round, better let things cool off and be sure to get good ventilation + odor control this time!

Be safe,
~V~

Damn Baggins, not good, sorry to hear that bru. Your choice on what to do, you know the situation best, but if it was me, I think I would be chopping and/or moving it elsewhere ASAP....Good luck with whatever you decide. Keep us posted lad.

Peace, DST

Ok Ok qick update!!!

Been real para all week, with what has been going on with the smell etc and i think i may have solved the problem as the smell from outside my house has gone!!
Ive had to shut the door on the grow room and seal it up!! this has caused the temp to rise to around 27/28'c but i think its a small price to pay for no smell!!!

Of course im still on edge and will be till next weekend which is when ive decided to try and hold out for!!

This morning i gave all 5 pots a flush with 5 litres of just plain water(as much as i can do) They really needed it as i haven't feed them since last sunday as some of the problems ive been having with the leaves etc i think was down to overwatering(as u all told me!!) so i let them dry right out before i started the flush!!!
Im thinking about mabe trying to get another 5 litre flush in before next weekend mabe around wensday morning then friday night when the light goes out, turning it off for good and leaving my babys in the dark untill sunday morning/night!!!

Im risking it by letting them go for another week but after all my hard work etc i dont want to feel that ive wasted all my time!! so im hoping by sunday they should be nice and cleaned out and the taste will be bang on!!

What you think to this plan!!!??? I need to know if its a good idea or not!!! will they be flushed out by next weekend???? is trying to flush them again in 4/5 days going to compound my little root rot issue(overwatering)????!!!!!

Will try and get some new pics up later or as soon as pos!!!

Stay Strong Peeps!! (im only just about doing it!!!)

By the way today is day 52 of flower and the flowering time is 56-65 days!! Was planning to go into week 9 but cant do that with what is happening and just doing 1 more week is way to risky as it is!!!

As long as the plants were soaked and there was plenty run off (at least 75% run off - i normally flush with at least 2x the pot size.) Personally I wouldn't flush or water again unless you feel they didn't get a good enough flush. But everyone does it different.

DST thanks for the reply mate!!!

When i did the flush there was plenty of run off on all the pots!! so you think i can now leave them too dry right out and then 24/48hr dark followed by the chop!!??? Do they not need to be flushed again??? I dont want to have any chemical taste or any kind of funny taste come to that!!

Stay Strong!!

Your deficiency in the pics looks like it might be Iron.. it usually starts at the top center.

I only flush once then leave...choice is yours, it won't harm them flushing again, if you do flush again, try doing it with really cold water, then lights off. McOne swears by this method.

Got my fingers crossed for you dude,

DST

DST!!
If i flush again then turn the light off, wont it take alot longer for the plants to dry out before the chop??!! or did you mean, do the flush then after a day or two turn the light off?!!

Probably will take longer to dry, but I don't do it so can't be 100%. Me, I wouldn't give them any water at all again.

But McOne swears by this, freezing water to shock the plant into thinking it's frost/winter starting, the plant starts to die and more resin is pushed into the buds(the lights are then switched off)....if you want quick drying which I think is favourable in your case, then don't flush again. Perhaps this is not the best time to experiment.

Cheers again DST

I think your right! its not really the time to try stuff!! So i guess im going to leave them now till mabe thu/fr then turn the lights off and then cut them down the weekend!!!

If i can keep it going till then!!

Stay Strong peeps(pics soon)

Hang in there Baggins.

}}}Positive Vibes to ya'{{{

Cheers all for the support!!!!

They are def coming down the weekend!! i did want to go the extra week but it aint gonna happen so they will get 57 days flower and then 48 hrs dark!!!

Im listerning to DST and not flushing or anything just going to leave them now till the finish!!

Taken some pics just before lights out!! like i say you will prob see some problems with the girls but im not messing about with them no more, so fingers crossed they are still gonna be some kick arse bud!!!

Let me know what you think!!!

Stay strong peeps!!!

Not letting me put pics up!!! so will try again later or tom!!!
