Oldsmokey Grows Blue Cheese & Blueberry With Promix

[Jecedjrr]

Good morning starting to have a issue with both blue cheese. Yesterday was feed day. I had to go to a BBQ so I mixed up the nutes before the lights came on and quickly watered all of them soon as the light clicked on before leaving.

When I returned and was looking them over I noticed some rusty spots on a leaf on each of the Blue Cheese.

This is What I think is going on you might remember not to Long Ago I dropped there feed to 4.5,gm/gl from 5gm because I could see a nitrogen toxicity starting. To dark of green colour downward clawing leaf tips. Classic N toxicity. After 2 feedings. At 4.5 things seemed to be improving so I increased the feed to 4.75 gm. Yesterday was the second feedings at 4..75. If I had not been in hurry to water last night I probably would of noticed the darker green creeping back in an the spotted leafs and would not of fed them the 4.75 and would of lowered it probably another.5 gm.

My take on this is K is starting being locked out also possibly a Mg defficiency from to high of N.

Blueberry#1 Ca defficiency Is slowly spreading it is on its second watering at 5.5gm I had raised itt because of the Ca defficiency I will monitor and possibly increase to 6 gm next watering. This one had used more nutes than the rest since day1. Blueberry# 2 looks good at 4.75gm. I should mention I am on a 3 day watering schedule giving them all 8 Lt and getting around 15-20% runoff.

I had a bunch of pics I took last night but I am having problems getting them to load onto the computer. I have a few that I took with my phone because I ran out of memory on The camera.

Blue Cheese#2 Both pics of same leaf about 60 % from the bottom of the plant

Blue Cheese#3 Both pics of same leaf about 60 % from the bottom of the plant

A couple of other possibilities. Could this be related to me not adjusting the PH level? This is a first for me. Also couple weeks ago I introduced a led light into the mix exchanging it for the 1000 watt HPS.
If anyone had any thoughts on this I would love to here them.

Happy Saturday wake and bake time

I’ve tried fixing the problem by adding more calmag. It didn’t seem to solve it as I’ve said, it happens almost every grow. I use calimagic. I may switch to a brand I’ve seen others have mentioned

I just noticed this line when reading above. I think you may be onto something here with the lockout. It’s happened to me every MC grow, and right at that point in flowering where the feed has been 5g/gal or higher.

I need to dig into N and Ca/Mg/K lockout and see what’s what. Maybe the answer lies at 4g/gal of MC with 1g/gal of BE, vice 5g or 6g of MC on its own.

That would keep the N down a tick, and shouldn’t blow out the N:K ratio.

Looks like I have some reading to do.

That what I am planing on after one more feed which is tonight. If things seem to be stabilizing then I will start adding bud explosion at .5gm/gl

This fence building is killing me. I have got all but one of the posts in so eleven done one to go of course I left the worst one for Last. The weather has been hot 30 degrees plus and high humidity.

Nice! I can't even see the boards so it's perfect! You have to admit when you sit back smoking a fatty looking at the lines you gotta say 'Man that's sweet'. Nice job Smokey.

Nice crop for a potted tomato. Says lots for the MC and your gardening skills.

after several joints from the deck. I thought the same thing. shit it looks great just like that.

I bought those tomato's at costco. The first time I fed it MC a seedlings dosage it keeled right over I thought it was a goner. But since then they have responded well. I should of put them in a bigger pot I don't think I want to do it now. I am watering twice a day .

Nice vid update. Glad you got the RH working a little better for you. If you get one of those Inkbird RH controllers you can put a small humidifier inside the grow area. It works well if you are using the AC Infinity units with the RH setpoints. If the RH gets high in the room the fans kick in to a higher speed and draws the lower RH from outside.
If the RH gets too low then your humidifier kicks in. You balance the two rooms and you can get pretty close to hitting the VPD marks.

 

[oldsmokey]

That would work nice. A couple months from now it's back to low humidity. I have been looking at those fans for a while and using my current one as a spare.

[Canadadoes]

Not sure what size you need, but if it’s 4 or 6 inch, get the 6in. If you need an 8in or 10in, look at hyperfans. They draw significantly less wattage than the ac counterpart. Thankfully I’m good with the 6in fans, which is good. Love the AC’s.

I need 6" just have to wait I am not working and on a fixed budget these days. Been over spending a little latley. Puting a new roof on the house next month. A little over 10,000 for that.
But that's the fan I have had my eye on for a while know. Humidity came down another 5% last night 55%at lights out.
