Dunking. sitting in a bucket of drench for five minutes per Doc's method.
Yup. And, I should note that the drenches are double strength as recommended....every 3 days at 27 days old!??...they're that thirsty in 1 gallons!?...cheerz...h00k...
I seem to be running into the same issue with mid/lower leaves fading, turning yellow from the tips in on nearly every grow. See photo. Looking for some advice as to what might be going on.
Backstory: First run soil. 1 gal. pots. Three strains - Purple Satellite, Panama and Harlequin CBD. Day 27 from seed. Under 660W actual LED, 18/6. Day temps 78-82, Hum. 55-65% Both lower at night. Not every plant is showing this but most are. I'm feeding each strain separately (nute strength) per the breeder.
Researching the issue leads me to either a N or Mg deficincy. However, on a previous grow with the same looking issue, Doc recommended up canning them as they looked "root bound". I did and they improved quickly. I pulled a plant today and there are a lot of roots circling etc., but I've had em thicker. Also, there are a few plants that appear to have "stalled" - growth slowed down.
I was hoping to go another 10 days or so before transplanting. The PS are getting a soaking, double drench every three days. The others every four. I'm following the feeding chart cycle, foliars, etc..
Not all leaves have the brown spots (nute burn?) you'll see in the attached pic. Most just show the fade-to-yellow in the leaf lobes. PS - the purple stem is "normal" for the Purple Satellite.
Any advice will be appreciated.
What do you all think about these plants? First up is the furthest along (mostly indica) and I would like to do the CAT drenches all at the same time if I can swing it.
Sunset Sherbert full plant and close up.
The rest of the plants more like 50/50 indica/sativa
Well, I know you were talking to Hbb, but... here’s some DBHBB Bubba Hash 2weeks into 11/13 lighting.
Much appreciation for the kit
Interesting I dont remember reading the DUNK till bubbles stop info (not a surprise I miss a lot).
I may need to adjust my dunking process as I dunk for 10 min. but make sure
all water has COMPLETELY stopped dripping after.
No issues on my plants but good to know I may be OVER WATERING during the dunk
THANKS
EDIT: even after a 10 min dunk I only get 4 to 5 cups to stay in a 1 gal pot
I start with 12 cups and end up with 7 to 8 cups left over. I adjust the Kit product amounts
according to how much is actually being added in those 4 to 5 cups
Left is a GUAWI 46 days from POP 1 gal pot -----------------------------Right is a PURPLE HAZE MALAWI 51 days from pop
BOTH getting dunked every other day DRINKING 18 to 20 oz each a day
Assumptions correct. Using LEDs - Dorm Grow and Fluence.
