5 gal of promix been in 12/12 from dec 17. i have advanced nutrients big bud and bud candy i gave them both to my plants last water at about 800ppm i used more big bud then i should have to bring the ppm up some, and the right amount of bud candy, but i don't have any real bloom nutes yet.so is this over or under nutes
(i have sensi bloom a+b on the way.)

here is 3 more pics i'm going to plain water right now i think its to much bid bud powder, but i'd like someone with experience to give me some help please.

Sorry if my opinion is negative or incorrect but that plant seems to show no positive qualities for bud production. The internodal spacing alone (pics 3 and 4)would have tipped me to exchange that one for another real quickly.

this is my first grow and it was bag seed. i've had some problems along the way but i need to learn what i can for the next grow so i don't mess it up as bad.

johnny12r · Dec 31, 2009

this is the tops of the plant i didn't think they looked too bad to keep?

countriboi · Dec 31, 2009

It probably wasn't anything you necessarily did wrong. Sounds to me like you take very good care of your girls. :-)

Outcome and yield deals greatly on plant genetics and then the available lighting will determine the spacing between nodes. What is your light setup? Are they all indoors or mixed? The more info the better. I'm here to help.

Nothing is wrong. The plant is telling you that it is ready to shed those fan leaves used for photosynthesis and put it's energy into bud production. What is their approximate age?

dodobird · Dec 31, 2009

Exactly. When the plant starts to flower and bud the fan leaves will turn yellow and shrivel up. It's all about the bud now. Plant looks beautiful, but it's definately a low-yielder. Next grow get some good seeds.

Nice! That bulb will make a big difference now.

They still look good but it almost looks like an N def starting to creep up.

bottom to top is N so keep an eye out and adjust if needed.

new growth looks very good.

johnny12r · Jan 1, 2010

any one have any other idea's? i have sensi bloom on the way but if its a nute def i can give them sensi grow 1 more time or i have some miracle grow bloom boost i can try?

dodobird · Jan 1, 2010

if you think the plant is in need of nutrients it will be fine to give her Sensi-grow one more time before your bloom arrives. Remember to flush with plain water before you start bloom. you should also blend the bloom & grow nutes together after you flush to gradually introduce the plant to bloom nutes.

johnny12r · Jan 2, 2010

its still not time to water again but it looks like the leaves that turned yellow fell off and the yellow is not going any higher not 100% sure what the prob. is/was but i don't think that's normal they have only been 12/12 for 2 weeks or so if it is n2 def. should i add high n2 nutes?

johnny12r · Jan 3, 2010

took a better look it does still have yellow about half way up the plant all of the leaves fell off the bottom?

prebs · Jan 3, 2010

Yeah its either an N deficiency or since you switched to 12/12 it's flowering and just killing off the more useless leaves to focus more on the buds. Keep on eye on it though.

riddleme · Jan 3, 2010

In your first set of pics they are under watered and wanting N

there are lots of folks that will tell ya it's normal but it's not

Add some N, you'll be fine

now that's good advice

**flush with plain water before you start bloom**

looks like you might have a lot of nutes going on right now and cleaning things up before the next stage of growth...

the seeds tho, yeah, you need to spend some cash on good ones. genetics make a difference, no matter what the nutes promise to do...
