If there's already a PH lockout adding Mg might not help until it's sorted. Are you using RO water?

Phosphorus deficiency? Could be caused by PH being out of whack? Going by those dark stems and leaf symptoms...

Week 9 Update / Flower Week 3 There was an explosion of growth this week although the bud development seems to be a little behind. Don't know if it's the cold, or something else but it just seems a little more delayed than usual. There are definitive signs of flowering albeit slower on the bud development side. Besides that they look really healthy and full and I'm looking forward to seeing them bloom:

Welcome, welcome, step inside.. I'm sure you'll find info and advise about anything that you're into here... cannabis-related of course

Those are solid lights. Like you I wanted to upgrade from shitty old tech lights and bit the bullet and bought a 240 QB from @Light It Up. They did such magic to my grow that I somma bought another one for my other tent. You won't be disappointed dude.

Awesome!! A little sneak peak of the pipeline maybe?

Waiting in anticipation for this info

They can breathe again <takes in a big breath of air> Well done D!

Lekka @Pants! Those girls look real happy now! I guess ventilation is overlooked because you can't see the air exchange but it's such a critical component of a grow op

Week 8 Update / Flower Week 2 Morning fam, this week was defol time for me to remove the lower stuff that won't make the cut (intentional lame pun ) and to give some light to the stragglers that just might push through to the tops. Last time I'm touching the leaves until much later. Ms Organic is a beautiful steady growing plant. I followed the great advice of @Green Leaf Organics and was mindful of saturating all of the media to runoff and following up with another saturation 20min later. As predicted she looked a bit droopy initially but not too bad, she bounced back quickly and was soon up and about with more vigor than before. Pics to follow All the ladies before defol: Ladies immediately defol: Some pics of what they currently look like: Ms Organic getting a good soak and looking a little droopy: But snapped out of it very quickly: Have a great weekend!

Really really cool art! I love that he has a uniform style inherent in each image

Nice one!

@Green Leaf Organics @The Grass Baas @The_StonedTrooper Thanks for all the advice guys, I wouldn't have thought much about saturating the complete media had this bit of insight crossed not crossed my path. I'll report back on my next watering

Thanks GLO, I normally take her out to water, I have a bucket with a grid and water until I can see runoff coming out of the pot. I haven't been focusing on where I'm watering though, so I'll take your advice and be mindful about trying to saturate all of the medium right through.

Exactly that, in my very limited knowledge of air flow dynamics I pictured the fresh cool air coming in from the top, sinking to the bottom and getting sucked out straight away without having the time to fill the tent with fresh goodness. Definitely not much of a muchness, the effect on the plants is dramatic. I think if left unchecked a improper ventilated system could prohibit growth and it would read like deficiencies.

Thanks JS! Yea, it's going to be interesting to see if the stretch will be uniform amongst all 3 girls

Week 7 Update / Flower Week 1 All the ladies are doing well and they're busy pushing out their new green shoots so there is not too much to report on. I would like to share something that I've learnt the hard way though. For a week or 2 now these plants have had me scratching my head. They were starting to show signs of deficiencies that I couldn't explain. I changed my res, my PH wasn't the problem, temp wise I've sort of got it under control by having my lights on during the night so I couldn't understand what was happening and it was giving me sleepless nights . I eventually had a look at my ventilation set up and I realised that my intake was coming in from the top and my exhaust, or link to my other tent, is going out from the bottom. I swapped that around and in a matter of hours the plants started to get their colour back and slowly the deficiencies started diminishing, they're still getting there but a big swing for the better. I was shocked at what a big impact an incorrect air flow could have. Even though there was ventilation, just having it set up wrong caused havoc. Had to share, maybe someone could make use of my lesson learnt.. I also added a submersible heater to my res to keep those low temps at bay in the root zone. So these are the girls as they are now: Heater added:

That's really interesting, I'm going to let it be just to see what happens

I've read about this mutation but I've never experienced it. It looks like what I assume would be a bud site growing in the fan leaf... crazy This poor girl's had it all, webbed leaves, weird alternate branching now leaf buds So what's the norm here, chop the leaf or leave it to grow out?

Yes

...and 1x big toe

Didn't want to miss out on an opportunity

Week 6 Update / Veg Week 5 I guess this is the last report before we need to flip to 12/12. I tried getting as much vegging and training done as I could and I hope I didn't put them through too much stress. This week consisted mostly of keeping the canopy flat (well, trying to) and mid-week defoliation before heading towards flower, except for the organic lady, I just let her be and her side growth has almost caught up to the topped growth so I'm happy about that. All in all I think I'm okay with going into flower. Before defoliation: T1 - Alyssa: T2 - Amy: After defoliation and a little more training: T1 - Alyssa (sadly couldn't save the one stem and it needed to come off ): T2 - Amy: The girls are now: T1 - Alyssa: T2 - Amy: . T3 - Janis: Current tent view - @The_StonedTrooper's clones will have to be shifted around between outside and tent to stay in veg while I wait for my other tent to finish up : Have a great weekend fam, good luck all with the next stage of our adventure

Very very nice

That ain't no rookie grow though
