My last crop of bubblicious started turning on me really early, im like u, i just want only the very slightest of yellowing on the harvest day. makes for better smoke IMO. i hit mine 9 days before harvest with a very light solution around 350-400ppm and my tap water is 250ppm of that. i make it PK heavy with just a very little amount of N to hold off any deficiency just a little while longer. i haven't had any ill effects as a result of this at all.

I think my soil mix would have gotten her through if I hadn't vegged her in it for 4 weeks before the flip (trying to fill a screen that I ultimately had to cut away anyhow)
First signs of deficiency started at 7 weeks of flower (a total of 11 weeks in the soil mix) My next run will be a crop of clones from this SB...and the one after that...so I'm hoping to avoid this issue with them :mrgreen:

No...what I meant was that my soil mix is for flowering...but I vegged in it for 4 weeks before the flip...all together this plant was vegging for 3 months...longer than normal but as I said I was trying to fill my screen...and I don't flush my plants as they are in large containers (18 gallon) Are you growing organically?

Oh ok nice, u use a soil mixed just for flower i misunderstood your post. No i am not growing this crop organically, i began with organics (earth juice specifically) when i had started growing, then went to FloraNova and now im giving GH Flora a go. I get bored easily i suppose and try to broaden my horizons with different techniques and fertilizers. anything i learn doing something out of my comfort zone ends up coming in handy eventually down the line. i had great success with earth juice, i thought it was a solid product and i genuinely enjoy organic gardening, everything i grow to eat outside i keep 100% organic. let me ask why u use 18 gallon containers? i used 18 gallon totes before and planted 3 per tote, now i just use 7gal per plant. does your organic soil require bigger pots?

My soil doesn't "require" bigger pots...but do you see how big she is? That container is full of roots :mrgreen:
I'm using mostly raw organic nutrients...the only thing from a bottle is a little fox farms big bloom and liquid seaweed...my next crop will be in smaller containers but only because they wouldn't fit in my flower room in the 18 gallon containers ;)

hell yea, 18 gallon pots, skys the limit with that! lol. id do it if i had the space to mess with 18gal pots. do u ever run multiple plants in the same pot? my brother grows commercially he always swears by 18 gal containers with 2-3 per container, i have been giving it some thought as to weather and how it would work in a SCROG. im doing my first "real" SCROG now so i didnt want to try that my first go. he uses nets as a support system rather than a true SCROG so i wonder.....

I wouldn't put multiple plants in the same container...I can only fit 3 big ones in my closet and still have room to get under a screen to care for them.
This run I started with 2 critical kush and the strawberry blue, all in 18 gallon containers. I used a trellis net instead of making a screen and it was horrible...ended up having to pull the CK's out (fem seeds hermed) and remove the net...I won't try using a net for scrog again...it doesn't hold them down at all

Are you feeding too heavy? Maybe you should go back to organic ;)

Do you have a link to your grow? You've got your profile on lockdown :bigjoint:

im scratching my head with the leaf burn i only ever use 700ppm when i feed i try to stay under unless it looks like they need it in late flowering then 800-850ppm. i feed about every 5 days, water feed water. my best guess is that its heat from the light if u see that purple og i got growing in there it was definitely showing heat stress. i moved my light up another 8" im hoping that resolves the issue. these 2 strains im thinking r just particularly heat/light sensitive.
