View attachment 3727103 View attachment 3727104 View attachment 3727101 Hey all. Amateur soil grower, using 4 *150w mars hydro led panels. Growing 3* formula one autoflowering and one Fem. Jack herer . Having some trouble with one plant (even though they've all had exact same environment/conditions).
Any thoughts on what this is? I've compared lots of online pics but can't finger it. Leaning towards Magnesium deficiency??
I dunno... Don't wanna lose her.
Thanks in advance!

I check PH of my ingoing water, keep it around 6,5 in soil. I add cal-mag all thru, from their first feed. usually half dose or so, until I find a one that demands more, the greedy step sister, always wants more....
If it were me with that plant, I would put it in the bath tub, flush it with a few gallons of PHed water, then the last i would poor thru water with half strength nutes and a regular dose of cal-mag, then let her dry out. The cheap soil meter, I would toss in the trash

Thanks
I tested the soil with a cheap meter and was just over 6 , so I can't imagine she needs to be PH flushed before giving her cal -mag?
Also, should I remove these yellow leaves?
You can remove all fan leaves if you wanted. Lot o people say not to but I've seen otherwise.

Well....
I just smoked the best pot I have ever fucking smoked .
I'm almost speechless in how to describe the taste and smell and the absolutely incredibly amazing buzz.

And the craziest thing about this is that I grew this shit .
Isn't is crazy? Gotta try mephisto billygreen, so many great reviews. Close friend of mine uses the whole plant in making hash. The main stem even is loaded in resin plus the yields are out of control. I read they drop 600 seeds and only take 3 for breeding/ cloning. They abuse them too to see which plants can handle the stress. It takes 3-4 years of breeding to finally stabilize a strain to sell. Based on my recent experiences with same strains they seem to be very unstable and always so much different even coming from the same place at the same time. Downfalls of autos I suppose.

Very few IBL's or land races around and even f2's abound. I enjoy good consistent IBL's but they are very elusive. Pollinating using one would seem worthwhile.

Hey, guys. This ViparSpectra is actually something worth looking into for your own reasons. Full spectrum, 50% efficiency, large aluminum heat sink, 5w diodes, strong par output. My plants are reacting tangibly to it.

5Watt Bridgelux/Epileds LED Chips

Not even close to 50% efficiency bro. You are trying to promote another cheap ass China led light. MH and HPS are more efficient per watt

This was tonight. Still have 33-ish days to go. I just switched to this light around Tuesday? I think? Before this I was using BlackStars with 3w diodes and they were not growing as well as they are now. The light looks purple on camera, but in life, it's kind of high def natural color with a slightly blue-leaning tinge.

I plan to get another one next month or ASAP.

I know my 2 osram Zelion HLs are the best veg lights I've ever seen. 88 watts covers 3x4 with super fast and beautiful growth. But those are $650 each and the cxb3590 are doing just fine.....and I loaned them out and miss them dearly now.

Wait to buy another once that plant has finished flowering if you care to hear me out. Your buds will be fine.....but for 200 watts at the wall you'll be lucky to get .7 grams per watt

With all do respect. If you're going to buy a new light. Have you considered that maybe you think these lights you have here are doing a good job only because you've never tried anything else? I say this only to help you out, for real!
If you switch to white light now & not add anymore of those, you may get lucky & be able to mix them together for a decent enhanced spectrum & not feel like the burples were a total waste.
Because I can pretty much assure you (select burple quality comp. are good) that you will be much happier using white or a mixed (burple n white) And so will your plants.
I tried both side by side & the white light did 2/3's better.

I just told you I had BlackStars before this. I got 3.8 ounces from one plant with those.
