Arnold Layne Posted December 22, 2004 Author Share Posted December 22, 2004 Here is the rootball of my Skunk Mum. She's been amongst the worst affected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnold Layne Posted December 22, 2004 Author Share Posted December 22, 2004 Hmmm, a bit closer maybe...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnold Layne Posted December 22, 2004 Author Share Posted December 22, 2004 My other Mum plant, a White Skunk, had a much whiter looking and fuller root mass. Sadly the photo went wobbly and its too late to take another. Not sure about the Skunk - is she diseased? She has started to grow fairly well on top, and I have just pruned her back and potted her on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnigmaticOne Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 Looking at that pic arnie it looks like some roots died or became diseased as some of the roots look discoloured and newer whiter ones have grown now. Well strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghengas Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 Would cannazym help with dead/deing roots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnold Layne Posted December 31, 2004 Author Share Posted December 31, 2004 Update: All is looking much better; we have green looking plants with good looking yieldage; the only remaining prob: a certain "dry-ness" to the laeves, although they are keeping their colour, albeit with redenned stems. The Skunk Mum with the dodgy rootball is recovering nicely. Is this an illusion OT1, do you think she'll retain the root probs? Should I replace her? Also revising sterilisation routines.... fingers crosssed, I think we have the enemy on the run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnold Layne Posted January 7, 2005 Author Share Posted January 7, 2005 Hmm - update. Well, things are OK-ish. Green and brittle, but yielding at least. Now I have to throttle back on the mix - the Skunk is getting nute burn ffs! £15 a bag and expensive nutes - may contem,plate a change back to JI at this rate. Save some cash at least. I raelly dunno what else to do - all was so good for a year and then suddenly, whammo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDP Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 i`d certainly consider a side by side comparison AL, JI/allmix & see if the problems reoccur or not that JI is extremely heavy to go back to after using allmix right enough m8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnold Layne Posted January 7, 2005 Author Share Posted January 7, 2005 Yeah, I started in JI so I have a good bank of memory to help me along. Not decided yet, probably continue for a while. Dunno though, hmmmm.... Stoner trying to make a decision? That's gonna happen soon, then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlad (the impala) Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 (edited) a thought did cross my mind - mycchorhizal funghi preparations are being touted as universal panaceas - according to the Rootgrow site, its often injected into the earth surrounding the root systems of ailing plants, particularly trees - wonder if it'd be worth a twirl?

Arnold Layne Posted January 7, 2005 Author Share Posted January 7, 2005 Yup, could be, Vlad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owt Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 it says " root 1 mycorrhizal fungi 100% organic 80ml selected strains of plant friendly fungi to multiply and supercharge the root system. far too many words to type on the back I have a free sample lying on a shelf! want to try it? says it is for soil coco helps nute uptake apparently. I aint tried it myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDP Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 i`ve used 4 sachets in comparison grows & i`d say its made a small difference to overall size of plant and rootball on each occasion i should really buy more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnold Layne Posted January 11, 2005 Author Share Posted January 11, 2005 PoG leaf. Plant has been in its final pot for a week, and shows steady growth, but..... What is going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
