The first image shows what I believe to be nute burn on her leaves. She is just going to get water next time around.
 
Looking great!!!
Newbie question:
What type of nutes do autos get once they're past the seedling stage? Do you start with high N or P or? And does that change as time progresses ?
Just curious cause I'd like to start some autos and u look like you have had a sucessful run so far.
Check my recent update in my journal and throw some pointers if you get stoned and bored

Wait until between week 3 and 4 to start them on growth nutes, then bloom nutes when they go into flower. I use tiger bloom tri pack nutes.

I have found that my auto doesn't like as much nutes as my photo does, so scale it back a tad. The strongest I have gone thus far is 1/2 strength and my auto still thinks that's too much!

Hope that helps!

Insomnia sucks. The medication I am on has a side effect of insomnia. Smoking before I go to bed helps put me to sleep but 4 hours later I am wide awake! May need to look into edibles, or how to make edibles.

Anyone have more info on how to make, and use edibles?

Thanks.

I've been making Cannabis Coconut oil and then mixing that with melted chocolate chips, about 4tbs per regular bag of chips. I spoon that into small/cheap glad plastic cups to make small disks about 1/2" deep. Or I make it like bark and pour it onto a cookie sheet lined with foil. I eat about half a disk, for functionality, 3/4 or more for couch lock. I make the oil by putting about an ounce of material to one jar of oil. I heat it together either in a crock pot or over a double boiler. Check youtube for cannabis coconut oil, there is a cook guy who does a good job explaining it. I've felt so much better with this medicine, I'm not much of a smoker. :)

Thanks Athos! I will check youtube now!
 
Good morning 420!

I may have my first problems with Kandy this morning. I have noticed over the last few days her leaves are drooping at the tips with some burn? I could use some help in diagnosing the problem.

I posted about it here:
Possible problems in flowering

Thanks for looking!
 
To much!
:MoreNutes:

Looks very mild to me... Its just a little nute burn. Clawing (leaf tips pointing down) and burnt tips is usually mild signs of nute burn. I see where you watered heavy last time with plain water. I dont really believe a flush was necessary but you now have her flushed. Just let her dry out completely and if it was me i would feed just plain water next watering also... Then you can start back nutes. Some might say to feed nutes or 1/4 nutes... 1/4 will most likely be ok also... Up to you!

P.S. every one of my leaves have burnt tips lol... She will be ok....

Poor Kandy. I think I messed her up with too much N. She got the same nutes that Bubba loves, but doesn't like the amount. I think in the future I will be growing the same type of plants if I decided to grow more than one at a time.

Her bud development has all but stalled at this point. I am waiting for her to dry out to check her runoff and adjust her PH. She will be getting only water for the foreseeable future. Being an auto, I am afraid her internal clock is still ticking away, which means she will probably yield much less than she should have. She is sleeping now, I hope when she wakes up she is feeling better and starts growing again.

Definitely thinking of going DWC for my next grow, but have a lot of reading to do.
I'll try and update with pics later today. Bubba is doing great and it is getting a little crowded in the closet!
 
Update day 55. I watered Bubba this morning, her runoff checked in at 6.5. I can only assume Kandy's is the same, which means she just needs way less nutes. Kandy is drinking a lot slower, possibly because of the nute burn. I will check her again tomorrow to see if she is ready for water. I wish Kandy would get better already, I hate worrying about her.

I have read that you never want to let a plant in flower dry out completely, instead I water when they are about 30% moist. (Don't know if this is true with autos however).

So Bubba is doing great! her bud sites continue to get taller and looks like she will be a nice producer. She is taller than Kandy now and about 12" from the Znet4, with no ill effects.
 
Update day 56. Kandy is under lights in a separate room right now while Bubba sleeps. Trying to give her as much light time as possible to help speed up her recovery. She is still sipping water, her stems are weak, but looks like she might be getting a little bit better. She is a SLOW healer for sure.

I haven't seen much bud growth this week. Maybe a tad, but not like before when she was growing wild.

Here are some pics of Kandy for today, I'll upload some Bubba pics later after she wakes up.

On the bright side, with her weak stems pulling her buds down, It's kinda like a scrog, without the screen :)
