New City Grower 2.0

I do have another nutrient availability chart that I do post but I find that this one more clearly reflects hydroponic and soil environments

Here is the alternate nutrient availability chart that I post, the chart does not reference hydroponics

Thanks for the share, KJC. I like the comparison between soil and soilless mediums. :thumb:

The soil chart on the left jibes well with the chart Chimp posted.

THE FIRE ESCAPE (OUTDOOR GROW)




After the heavy thunderstorms yesterday they look ok. I think they even enjoyed it so I left them outside for the storms later on today.

STREET GIRL #6





She's one of the two I was testing to see if you get a better start with Rapid Rooters or soil. The roots are nice for day 3 and last night I covered them from the light.

STREET GIRL #7





She's the 2nd Rapid Rooter girl but wasn't fairing as well. As of last night no roots were showing and she looked a little withered so I put the Rapid Rooter cube in a cup of soil.

If you Get tired of the Street Girls, I know a certain Spimp that could put them to work... :rasta:

Looking good Reg! And the Bubble Gumer went from a Orville Reden-budder to a looker with legs. :geek:Nice work sir!
 
Looking good BAR but may I suggest something for you to do? Your Rapid Rooter cubes look very similar to the ones I use in the UK called Root Riots. I keep them moist but not wet and they produced fantastic roots, I check the moisture level twice daily & spray them with water to keep moist. With you keeping them in water your roots wont get enough oxygen & will rot in the water. I recommend you take them out of the water & give them a gentle squeeze to remove excess water and you'll see lovely white roots sprouting everywhere in a few days. :)

Consider it done...
 
BAR everything is looking really good. Nice harvest. That Royal Medic is looking really good. I have never had real good luck with the strain even though I got 80 grams from the last one. It looked like sheet but still gave my a good amount. Happy days
 
Sorry to interrupt you Jam but it's time for someone with an unresolved issue to post:



THE CANNABIS MYSTERY OF THE WEEK​



Here's last week's.





Welcome to "Cannabis Mystery of the Week"


I am growing a Northern light Automatic in soil.
The soil has a Ph of 5.5-7 as stated on the bag.
The plant has been great with explosive growth up untill 7 days ago.
I started my seed on the 13/5/14
Problems started showing half way through week 5.

It all started when I changed my Fertilizer, I had read that you are to always check your PH before giving the plant its food, as I use powder nutes that get sprinkled over the soil first, I could not do that, so I went and got some basic Tomato liquid nutrients.
The liquid nutes have a NPK rating of 3-1-5 and also contain trace elements. The bottle says to use it once a week but it says nutrients remain active and usable for 2-4 weeks in soil. They recommend 10ml per liter.

On the 18th of june I gave the plant 10ml of fertilizer with 1.5 liters of water, I did not check the P.H going in, but after I saw this problem I made up another feed of 10ml fertilizer and 1.5 liters of water tested the PH.. the water was so dark I could not see the PH drops doing anything at all. If anything it looked like my PH was 3-4
This was the first sign I saw, it happened very fast within 24 hours.
The markings were only on two leaves, and it was the last two fan leaves on the top of the plant(the main cola or top)

So on the 21st, Three days after giving it this fertilizer the problem started getting worse and I was advised to flush the plant, which I did.
I checked the run-off after 30 mins of flushing and it was still coming out at 5.
2-3 hours after the flush the plant showed dramatic spread of the problem it seemed to move across all the tops in a matter of hours, the problem was much more spread out and not so much direct damage to one leaf, they all had a spot or two and all looked alittle greyish..

I let the plant dry for two days and on the 24th I gave the plant a very light feeding of my old nutrients.. they have an NPK of 10-6-10 I gave it half a teaspoon and sprinkled it over the soil and watered, I checked the PH and it was still sitting under 6.

On the 25th the problem seemed to stop spreading but the already affected leaves seemed to be getting worse.

On the 26th being today,
I flushed the plant for another 30 mins and I was not going to stop flushing untill my PH went back to 6.5 it took about 20 liters of water till the run off stopped coming out orange and more clear like water, checked PH and got a rough 6.5 that was roughly 12 hours ago and now the problem seems like it has started to spread again, now almost all the tops have been affected.

There is not alot more to say, I am hoping the pics can explain abit aswell =)

If you look close you can see that every leaf that is light green has been affected in some way or another, some leaves also have bluish grey patchs not brown, the main steam also has red lines running up...

Thanks alot for reading and helping me so far guys, I am sure it gets annoying have newbies always asking question you have answered thousands of times, I really appreciate the help that I have had, from buying my light to buying hydrogenperoxide for fungal gnats its great to find like minded people in a place that isnt full with big heads and people just being A$$ holes all the time =)

Ask for anymore info and I will do my best, and please if I just need to chill out and stop worrying tell me, I would love to hear that =)

The pics dont do the problem justice, it looks quite bit worse in person =/




Now who needs assistance?
 
I can't see the photo that well so can't help with anything on that sick plant you posted for someone, but as a sista from anotha fatha, for the sake of Pete bring those plants in already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



And please lock that window. I have horrible nightmares about fire escapes and being taken off.
 
Oh, and the website is behaving like it is my first time here. All back to the beginning of each thread and I am not getting email notification of posts. Is anyone else experiencing this?
Yes GF. I was trying to respond to your post about being disabled and the lady that got fired for treating you so bad and I couldn't post. I thought it was my computer. As for not getting your email notifications< went through it some time ago and a mod at 420 had it fixed. If it continues contact them.:420:
