hydro4pot Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 (edited) Fair one still a bargain for 21, I bought a cheap led off flebay for 65 quid it's selling for £180 now fucking joke and it's not bad either. Flicking through your diary mate I was like wet dry cycle man someone tell him wet dry cycle you seemed to crack it in the end great advise from all the guys aswell.

Subliminal Criminal Posted December 30, 2015 Author Share Posted December 30, 2015 (edited) yeah man, you should have said.. i took time to realise i was watering one feed plain water the next. but tbh i think i had the knack of watering them just enough from the start, never really over or under watered them, except before i left and had to overwater on purpose.. @@hydro4pot i got a brand new powerplant superwing for 21 quid , even without the alb cord (another 15) a bargain.. bought one went straight back up to 65 quid.. didnt have a plan then for the sliding door grow, so im gonna have to pay full price if i want another Edited December 30, 2015 by Subliminal Criminal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
botanics Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 They look a bit hungry to me mate, other than that though the buds are coming on sweet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

botanics Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 A little mate yeah, but I wouldn't worry too much about it as upping the N at this stage could mean leafier buds, was down the stretch I would say Watch out for those lower temps on them though mate, these Blue Kush I've got really don't respond well to cold and I'm suspecting yours are the same 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subliminal Criminal Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) ok i have been foliar feeding, some say its not a good idea, but for me its fine, as usually the plants are completely dry again 30mins after a spray, using a weak mixture of filtered water, a little pm bloom and a little mollasses humidity is now between 30 and 40.. temps are a little high sometimes when i am running my central heating, and i think that is causing one of the girls to wilt. I have just opened the window to stabilise it. I could dial down to 400w but i dont want to because i dont want to decrease yield etc.. I will take a couple of shots after 10pm lights off.. I just fed and watered them with 6litres of water with 2mls litre pm bloom and a quarter of a teaspoon mollasses in 2l water.. e2a .. i am foliar feeding 1ml grow 1ml bloom in a litre to see if i can reverse the N defiency.. I have just tested it on one part of a plant, if its ok by tomorrow i will spray the rest..

Subliminal Criminal Posted January 1, 2016 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) quick unofficial update.. i made a mixture of filtered water, 1ml grow, 1ml bloom in a litre sprayer. I applied this a few hours before lights off to give time to dry the plants out. Hopefully foliar feeding this will give the plants more nitrogen. I want these plants to be packing buds on in the next few weeks before harvest. Watered earlier today 6 litres, 2ml of bloom per litre.

Subliminal Criminal Posted January 3, 2016 Author Share Posted January 3, 2016 (edited) so this nitrogen deficiency has occurred because im a stupid twat.. not to big myself up! When the plants went into flowering i completely stopped the grow nutrients, and just swapped over to bloom without tapering off. @@botanics @@SkyRider Edited January 3, 2016 by Subliminal Criminal 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alright mate, I don't bother tapering my feed off, I just switch from PM OT Grow to PM OT Bloom. I think the trick to it is when you switch though. Once I flip the plants I usually carry on with the grow nutes for about two weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subliminal Criminal Posted January 3, 2016 Author Share Posted January 3, 2016 thats what i meant @@SkyRider... i should have been feeding both at the beginning of flowering 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyRider Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I don't feed both mate, just one or other. My schedule is (roughly) like this: Veg: up to 2.5ml/litre OT Grow with up to equal amount of PM Root stim Wk1 Flower: 2 to 2.5ml/litre OT Grow + 2.5ml/litre Root Stim Wk2 Flower: 2 to 2.5ml/litre OT Grow + 2.5ml/litre Root Stim Wk3 Flower: 2 to 2.5ml/litre OT Bloom + 1ml/litre of Cal Mg Wk4 Flower: 2.5ml/litre of OT Bloom Wk5 Flower: 2.5ml/litre of OT Bloom Wk6 Flower: 2.5ml/litre of OT Bloom Wk7 Flower: 2ml/litre of OT Bloom Wk8 Flower: 1ml/litre of OT Bloom / none Wk9 Flower: none That is very roughly what I do but of course, it completely depends upon the plants. If I am feeding too much then I reduce it, not enough then it goes up. I only actually use the Bloom nutes from Wk 3 to Wk7/8. I also sometimes carry on the root sim for a few more weeks. Hope that helps mate. Maybe not something for you to follow exactly, but will give you an idea of what I do. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyRider Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 and with a defiency you have to be careful not to overcompensate slow and steady mate is always the best way. Make small changes and observe what happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
