We dont have many hydro stores in this area, they're all about 2+ hours away one way.

I ended up picking up a bag of "Coast of Maine" soil. Trying to find some ppl that have tried it to make sure Im not going to introduce bugs or mold straight out of the bag.

Again dont want to jack the thread but the specifics of the soil are

Thanks for the feedback!

yes they are in veg, 18/6. letting her get big so i can take cuttings of her. then ill wait 5 -7 days and throw her to flower! as for the soil recipe idk it, i got the clone from a friend and fellow patient. and its kinda a test run with it as well. so far so good!

[jwb87]

sweet man. Liking the LST, gonna be all information for my attempt! Looks great

 

[SourSkunkD]

thanks bro short aside a few lil probs but all in all is good. does anyone know what his is or may be, or whats causing it?

 

[FirstGrowGod]

I dont fully understand the problem? Is it you dont like how the leaf fingers overlap?

 

[SourSkunkD]

more like going from 7 to 3 leaves, and they are folding underneath each other.

 

[SourSkunkD]

i clipped these to show what is happening, it was just a few fan leaves but also the top is growing weird too.... never seen this before

 

[SourSkunkD]

notice the top has 1 leaf set like early seedlings do. let me know whats goin on here. thanks

 

[Dee House]

id check the run off ph

 

[jwb87]

Im interested to see what the cause of this is as well!

 

[FirstGrowGod]

Less leaf fingers is overall sign of something not good.
I will tell you just for the sake of you having added knowledge that i have had issues before that i have fixed by transplanting. Ever just need some space? I THINK that is what she MIGHT need.
In addition below the soil is a mirror of above the soil, the roots COULD be cramped down there.
Now idk your photoperiod but if your in flowering alot of people say dont transplant, idk if you wanna listen to them.
Easy way to find out if this could help: look at your drainage holes for roots coming out.
Maybe this will help or maybe just give you a better idea.

 

[SourSkunkD]

well the runoff is at 6.7 and there are some but not alot, maybe i will transplant just to see if that may be the case!
