So I was gonna wait until my ladies were big and happy before I made a post. Oh well.
Before I started ruining expensive seeds on a learning curve, I hit up the local dispensery and scored a few "test rabbits"... good thing I did
The first pic shows my ruined dj short blues. I put them in soil from the garden originally, first mistake. They quickly became waterlogged and stunted.
So after alot of studying, some new toys (water meter and an EC wand) I decided to go hand fed hydro. I hit up the hydro shop, grabbed nutes A and B, root excel, silicon, B-1, the works. the shop even had a nute schedule! following that was mistke #2. I also grabbed 4 more clones as a "control".
Stats:
light - 90w UFO and two 30w CFL's
medium - grodan grow cubes
temp - 65 night - 75 day - 40%RH
water - 0.8 EC/ 400-560ppm (truncheon wands are confusing) without nutes!
I know that my water PPM is too high, but that shouldnt manifest right away, no? The toxins have to build up first, right? I have had the blues for 3 weeks and the rest for 2 weeks. Could it happen that quick? The guy at the hydro store told me most water in orange county is ideal for hydro. I not listening to him anymore.
The blues never really bounced back. Even in thier present state, the roots are growing like mad!! that excelerator really works.
The second pic is master-bubba, and the reason for this post. See the dark reddish-brown blotches on the center of the leaves? and the curling/twisting?
The third is white deisel. In the bottom right corner there is small necrotic spots on that fan leaf.
The forth is of two green cracks. They show the same reddish-brown blotches in the center of the leaves as the master-bubba.
Does all of this mean that I originally burned them all with nutes? Last week I cut the solution in half. The new growth seems ok, but these old burns will stay? Should I only be watching new growth for signs of recovery?
What about the blues? If I cut the damaged leaves will this help them to recoop? Are they destined for the compost heap?
I tried to inform myself as much as I could before killing a bunch plants/money. But nothing replaces experience. I placed an order with attitude seeds yesterday. I am not planting seeds until my setup is a well oiled machine though. As a hoodlum teenager I grew a few gorrila plants. Sprouting seeds was always the easy part. keeping them happy always seemed to be the trick.
How long should I wait before I take another step? I know first-timers doom themselves by fiddling with everything to much. Thanks for reading!
