Can Epsom salt be a diarrhea powder? Maybe I can get it in drug store?
Lol yes its also used as a saline-laxative though its the Magnesium-sulfate in it you want. As my experience with cal or mag goes, cal def you'll see a curling/drooping of the large fan leafs. Mag def you see the spots you're currently seeing. I'd start with about 1/4-1/2 tsp(I believe its about 5-10ml for those in Europe lol) per gallon and stick with your regular feeding schedule

Awww, how i was trying to fix my plant. I flushed her today with some 15 l of water because her leaves turned very waxy already. Then I went to household shop but they didn't have anything close to Cal/Mag. I bought K+Cal+S but then realized that I shouldn't try it because Mag was only 10% in it. Then I went to drug store, turns out there you can easily buy this powder. 50g was something like $ 4. He asked if I need to clean my gut :grin: I said that I will have a nice foot bath :grin: I watered my plant with water where I added it and a lil bit foliar feeding on those damaged leaves. Now I have to wait until the soil gets dryer. There is swamp in the pot at the moment.

Hello grow bros!
There has been rush these two days. I bet you all know that you move two times faster when something goes wrong.

Sooo, today I noticed that not even those ugly spots but some leaves got very waxy and shiny. This means I need to flush. Took her to the bath and pored through the pot some 10 l of water. Now there is swamp. Later I got the epsom salt and i fed her with it. She looks even bigger when I take her out of the box. Ok I am baked now and don' t know what else to tell. Lets show the pictures.

Remembered!
I wired two way switch to my PSU. Now I can spin my Audi blower on two speeds. Regular one is 5V and 12V the loud one goes when I switch on 150w MH. I run it only 6hours to make her think that there is midday with shiner sun. reason is electricity.

And the victory of today is Co2 bottle that went out of frames. I read one post where guy told if more yeast and sugar the bottle will work longer. He didn' t tell that 5 table spoons of each is too much. I' ve pored away 2 x 0,5 l of foam which comes in the smaller bottle. I placed it outside of box and put tube at the intake "filter"

Maariic,I used 2ltr coke bottles fill halfway with h2o add 3 cups about 700ml of sugar 1pk 21g active yeast punch hole in the top and shake if you use slightly warm water it works faster.I put 2 of these behind a fan blowing over the top of my plants and put a towel over where my fan blows in during the dark cycle and i could see the difference quite a bit.Now i shake the bottles right before lights out and my plants are loving it.Now i keep the fan off dark cycle.They last about a week.I have a lot of vent during the light cycle so i'm sure it does nothing then.I think this might work in a small space stealth.
I thought this was more forum bullshit and just made these playing around but i can see the difference in plant growth.
Go figure?What next?

She has been sitting 35 days in 12/12 already. This means four and half out of TWELVE weeks are behind. OK two more month to go. I hope she will survive to the end.

How do you think leaves are feeling? Are they going to recover sometime or better is to cut them off?

That is how she looked a while before :)

maariic,

Don't stress, she is budding well and you're ahead of the problem with the flushing.

How are the temps? She looks good, just tired; bleached maybe? Perhaps an HIDµgrower could provide more insight here? Have you noticed the spotting on the lower growth?

I didn't catch the idea of this sentence. Can you explain to non american friend?
temps don't go over 29C. And those side leaves are tired because when I close the door they bend. There is too little space.
EDIT: Just got it - there are very tiny bright spots on lower leaves. But only somewhere not on all. They don't progress by now. Hopefully they won't

I apologize, I will be more clear.

How many cm are between the top of the plant and the bulb? By "tired", I mean that the bud leaves look like they are trying to get away from the light (curling downward at the edges). 29C is a too hot if the bulb is close; this makes intervenal bleaching due to heat or light intensity likely.

Have you seen spots on the leaves of lower branches, or just the tops?

You don't need to apologize. I didn't read carefully. And I was working all the yesterday with contact glue. And later was changing petrol pump at work. Some of the petrol got to the floor and there was nasty smell under the car. Maybe there are some brain cells damaged

I think there is like 30 cm space between hps and plant, CFLs are 10cm away and MH is 40cm from tops. I should probably raise the CFLs. There are these vertical fluoros in corners as well and it looks like leaves are trying to get away from them, but I can't help them I have to train her as wide as possible. I am just looking that buds don't get too close to those lamps, but side leaves I let touching. There is no matter cutting them off at the beginning or burning later.

There are only tiny spots on lower leaves. no spots on lowest ones.

Again, I use T5s- let's see if an HID grower chimes in.

Thank you for showing us all sides of your grow, good and bad.

Happy growing

Thanks oTm. Let's wait what those guys think. I am really hoping that worst part is behind. Now I will be more careful with nutes.

OMG :o I am two days late for the new season of Californication. Just got the first episode. One small popcorn "bud" and here it goes!!!

Maariic have you started giving them mag yet?I know you said they were swamped and had to dry out before feed.
Get some mag in em and i think they will be fine.I think if it was me i would go for a faster strain,the longer they go the more chance for problems.
I know your growing a sativa but there's shorter ones such as c99 7-8wks and many others.
Gro on bro

I gave her Mag that day I was flushing. Sunday. Now I am foliar feeding her leaves every morning. I specially wake up two hours earlier because I need to do that right before lights and I don't want to change light cycle anymore. Maybe plants have their biological clock too. I don't want to fuck it up.

Hi Penyajo! If it even happens with best of us then it can def happen to me. Second lady in my life only! She is doing good. Those damaged leaf tips are crunchy now, but otherwise she is feeling good. Today I almost made a pee in my pants. Came home and there was 36C inside. fan was out. I took it off, disassembled it and realized that was not the problem Turns out there was bad connection in switch :D :D :D But that's OK I saw that there are parts in the motor that need to be changed. If I won't and it brakes down I have to pay 70-80$ for other used one.
