New Beginnings for Massachussetts and I

3 weeks. Fox farm nutes, though less than their recommendations, plus a little calmag, and occasional bump of molasses and kelp. I also use to remove chloramine.
It also could be phosphorous deficiency. I had this problem and PH issues when I first started 10 years ago or so. All my fan leaves rusted and crinkled up. I'll try to upload a pic of the phosphorous def.

What type of fox farm nutes? The bloom? How much per gallon are you doing vs. What is on the bottle? Also is this a different strain from the un effected plants?

To anyone interested...I run organic and getting into rols, but I found what was best when I was learning was roots organic or roots 707 soil is great, I used flora nova bloom the lucas formula and never had to ph the water. I used it in veg and bloom. It works great, my lazy friends still use it.

Which farm did you get? You can make em yourself pretty easily
The worm inn. Yeah, I could build one, but time......

My questions are pretty basic. Can I leave them out uncovered (the worm inn has a screen on top). Can too much rain drown them (water will drain out, but it will get pretty wet). And what temps do I need them in during the winter (will an unheated attached garage be ok).....

This plant went brown overnight. It had some nitrogen deficiency and yellowing lower leaves earlier in its life but not on the sugar leaves like this. Still can't find an Amber trichome. The other plant in that tent had the same feed and is lush and green. Did it die from cumulative abuse or age? It is an auto just over breeders flower time. I read you pull them before the sugar leaves go yellow.

Leaves will yellow as nitrogen is used up- breeders time is just a general time, but mileage will vary- best indicator is trics on calix, sugar leaf trics will usually turn quicker- longer is better; most people pull too early( i aim for ~ 80% milky and rest amber- depends on effect you want.More amber is thc converting to Cbd(breaking down)The tric pics you posted looked mostly milky with some clear,no amber on the plant in question( how many days ago were those? The change over occurs pretty quick- just check them daily

I post this link for you with the caveat that you will probably be more rather than less confused after you read it

Thank you that was very helpful. It is Northern Lights so it is an Indica strain. I do not want couch lock so cloudy is when I want to harvest. I understand about Amber trichomes and all. My issue was that It ran out of green for it to grow. Over half of it went Brown overnight. Do Trichomes really matter? Isn't it dying? It was over watered, under-watered, starved of nitrogen, all when it was young.

She's already had a flush last night and she is starting her 24 hour of dark.

I read all of that one day. I also go back to it many times when I'm trying to find a solution.

I am 75 days into a 65 to 70 day auto Indica strain. That was kind of why I thought it might be done or just dying. Her sisters are still doing quite well. I will leave them for as long as possible.

It might very well be done. Unless all the plants are clones of the same mother there's no way to really correlate their growth patterns exactly. Just sounds like that particular plant matured faster than the others.

WW Auto Day 41 & HBSS Auto (bubblegum cut x w.w auto) Day 11

Total newb question:
I have never reached this far before with a plant. It seems my WW Auto is in pre flower.
When do I say officially "Flower, Day 1" ?

The budsites are thickening(preflower), so any day you will see Pistils- mine changed overnight- then the waiting game(mine(WW auto went to 90 days total, so your not quite 1/2 way) mileage will vary.Looking good, I'm so happy for you.

Finally got off my ass and made space for my newly acquired 5 by 5' tent- just started 4 Pineapple Kush clones in little tent( late in clone as plants are just flowering, but by putting back on 18/6 hope to reveg.(uncharted waters), now the struggle to set up new tent, and what next? Getting light challenged- have my 2 Led and one 600Hid left- figure 2 led in 5 by 5 with 4 plants and 600 in 2 by 4 tent- will eventually get another 600, but currently financially challenged( broker than a dead dogs dic- old adage) Any thoughts on light setup? And another 600 might be a challenge on my 20 amp line, with 2 going now, it would be above the 75% figure for circuit. Ok, just refigured watts and I can go to 1920 and still be in the safety zone, so 1800(3 600's) and 2 exhaust fans@ 68 watts- the other peripherals can go on extension to 15 amp plug.

The worm inn is such a good name. I keep mine in my basement, the garage gets too hot and cold, 60 to 80 degrees is the window. My bins are covered. You wouldn't want water running through your farm, but you should be fine if you keep them inside.

Your farm should produce solid-worm castings and liquid which is full of nutrients. I would assume the rain would ruin the liquid goodness and make it a less desirable environment for them worms.
