oh baby !!! Does it get HOT in that garage without the A/c on OMG. A/c auto restart had an issue yesterday while i was at work........ Crazy temps FAST

I have c02 in both cabinets now also running pretty smoothly

 

[mrrobert420]

Need some advice please

Do you guys think i should trim all this small stuff off the bottom? Since i slready put them through so much with my novice skills i dont want to put them anymore stress unless there is some gain from it. here the pics of the section im talking about.

ugggggggg...... i can hardly look at the pics its so disappointing lol


and by the way new private reserve clone and my one blue dream clone are really taking OFF. Much better vegging than my first round. Very quick. Will post update pics very soon

I would defoliate your lower growth and any leaf that shades a bud site at flower day 21-25 and again at flower day 45 if needed. You can see examples of how I defoliate in my KingJohnC's 400 Watt LA Confidential Seed Cabinet Soil Indoor Grow Journal and KingJohnC's Brainstorm Haze Soil Indoor Grow Journal.

the spots are just nutrient burn and the plants will be alright. I would lollipop the plants by plucking the flower sights from the lowest 1/3 of the plants when the stretch is over.

Clones!!!! Roots are starting - These are taken 7 days from start last weeks. 4 so far have some good roots starting.

 

[MaPilot]

Great job!

 

[mrrobert420]

Great job!

Thanks Mapilot!

I am going to the hydro store today and getting what i need for the Heisenberg Tea. Seems like great success as hydrogaurd alone just isnt cutting it. Cant lose another plant to this mess lol.

Looking really good Mrrobert, Keep it up. The two Blue Dream you got going in the larger closet have very thin long, sativaish looking leaves.
How long have they been in flower now? They should start to swell soon.

Thanks stealth, wish i could resolve this root issue. I have high hopes for the tea though......oh yea...... kind of important lol....... blue dream will be in flower for 5 weeks tomorrow

 

[HunterHunt]

Looking good! What kind of root problems are you having at this point? You said you have them in a flush?

 

[mrrobert420]

Starting to show signs on root rot starting. I pulled the nutes and its flushing with some hydro guard right now. Its hard to tell when its starts as some of my nutes like, floroliciouse plus, is extremely dark - almost like chocolate, but not chocolate smelling lol....... I am going to brew the tea like you recommended read online about it for about 3 hours today. probably gonna just start running this tea every week as I washed and bleached all pumps and res parts and my chiller, plus having a full dose of hydrgaurd, and im still getting roots darkening together. Seems like people who run the tea win the battle.

 

[HunterHunt]

Yes since you are having so many problems i would suggest the tea! And yea im glad my nutes are almost clear.... I would freak out every time i looked in the reservoir if it wasnt lol...

I started adding peroxide the other day because of my bug problem and my reservoir already smells icky... I now have started back on my aquashield after 2-3 days of peroxide... It took my reservoir 24-48 hours with aquashield the first time to get my reservoir back smelling good and clean everything...

Hope you get it sorted soon your plants are looking good.
