Browning of tips of leaves

[Von Kroppelberg]

hey guys on like 4 months 2 weeks now. Have 3 plants 2 x ak48 and 1 madman og.

The ak48 that I did lst on is showing browning on practically all the tips of its leaves and i tried flushing but its difficult to flush as well cuz it has calmag solid spheres in the soil that i added earlier on n then covered it with another layer of soil. So if I flush I think as tho I jus push more salt to dissolve and burn d plant even more.

I'm at a loss with what to do.
Any advice?

I think you got nutrient burn if not you have root zone issue.

Things may have got a little hot during feeding time. From the looks of your plants. DON'T worry they will be fine. Looks like you are getting real close to the end so you are closer to flushing then you are to fixing stuff. There may not be enough time left to fix and flush. Flushing in this case may be the fix LOL.

Also flush or no flush leaves are going to start looking pretty bad soon. It is the natural process.

Hey one other question I took off 2 clones just as a experiment prior to switching to 12 12 and this is how they look now shud I give them some nutrients? I never gave them anything and I'm watchin the lower leaf of one go completely yellow

If you took those a week before flower. Then the didn't reverse. Did you put them under 24/7 light? Lots of times that is what is needed. You are getting new growth but it is buds. They will start making branches when the have reversed. They will have a branch with single finger leaves coming off it to start.

How long have they been in the soil? If it is over 2 weeks then there is a good chance they have roots. If they have roots then you can feed them.

Yea they in d soil about a month now. I had them under like a week of 18 6 then everyone in the room got 12 12. So I'll give them a bit of nutrients. Thanks! I like how u think.

On a side note, u kno how they say u have to wait until the pistols brown and curl inward and the trichomes to turn mostly cloudy with a few amber. Where exactly do u look for that. Like is it on the sugar leaves surrounding the bud or the actual bud itself

Good question LOL. I look at it all to get a idea of the trichomes in a whole. Mostly I try to see the ones deeper in the buds. I can't say I have ever harvested plants because of trichomes. For me it is a mixture of things. After 75 percent of the hairs are red I start checking trichomes and the overall look of the plant. I usually harvest soon after the first amber trichomes start showing up. Strains vary so much in how they finish. I am now going mostly on feel. I just harvest when it feels right. I know that does make sense but it works for me.

 

[Von Kroppelberg]

It does make sense. Experienced based harvesting trumps all else

Lmao I really lookin forward to these smokes. For a first time grow it seems to b on the way to a success. Excited to c how much I'll get. Hoping for an ounce.
