Peyton & Pals Perpetual Playground

With you saying that it must be moisture related. I know what you mean with the heavy hands, I'm surprised Old School's seed husk was removed without taking the lot off Hopefully she'll pull through & I'm sure Washing Machine will do well after her tricky start I just wish you were closer to me & I'd give you some clones for your garden

 

[PeytonManning]

Yeah, i wish I had access to clones. All the states around me have medical, but not mine. If I knew people in Michigan I would go up there for clones, but that won't happen. I'll just have to rely on the knowledge I gain from you guys to get my cloning skills up. You guys just make it look so easy.

 

[skunnymonster]

You're lucky in the US to have legal areas but I've never understood how different states have different laws. Surely they will legalise it in every state sooner or later.
My 1st clone off this batch isn't yet a success so I wouldn't say I've made it look easy

When I bought my weed on Friday my dealer friend was asking about how much I'd sell clones for, I felt all protective about my babies & told him I wont sell any

 

[PeytonManning]

Yeah, we're real backwards and screwed up with the way laws are here. Nothing makes sense half the time here.

I dint blame you for not selling clones. Especially to the guy who ain't hooking you up for free. Now if he gave you free bud, I could see it. I'm hoping after this harvest that I'll never have to see a dealer ever again. Maybe he'd make a fair trade of bud for clones, but doubtful these days

 

[skunnymonster]

My dealer is a friend but he's very small time & only sells small quantities to friends so he smokes for free. He never says where it comes from so not knowing where my clones are going & not being able to trade for bud did put me on the defensive a bit.

A quick update on Washing Machine, it is now 1/2" tall & has shed it's seed husk. This is more like it I'm amazed how fast it's escalated from this mornings transplant & I'm very excited

 

[Stumped]

Hey. FYI. Don't handle seedlings with your bare hands. The oils can kill them. I use tweezers.

 

[PeytonManning]

That might explain why my bagseed had such a high fail rate. With my paid seeds I always slapped on some gloves to plant them.

 

[skunnymonster]

I never touched the root, just the seed

Here it is around 10 hours later

 

[PeytonManning]

Looks like it's almost time to moisten the shell and grab the tweezers

 

[Stumped]

Just making sure. Hate to see an expensive seed go down the shitter. Shell is fine to touch.

 

[skunnymonster]

I'll play it safe & let nature take its course, as you can see the seed husk is just balanced on top & it has broke the inner membrane which will just drop off as the leaves go vertical.

 

[skunnymonster]

Thanks for looking out for me mate, I do use tweezers when transplanting them & your advice was spot on

Hi all looking for some help , thank for the invite Peytonmanning
Here we go , im half way through week six and just turned down to flower, I've transplanted 3 week ago in to 12l aero pots with plagron all mix and plant magic granuls , the soil has 5-6 week of feed so have only be watering with ph corrected water 6.5 I checked the run off about a week ago and it was over 7 ph so the next two waterings I lowered the ph to 5.5 and now iv have a problem , hopefully you guys can help , here is a few picks of the worst effected plant,
Thanks in advance

Welcome. Feeding at 6.5 and getting 7 runoff.... First let's clear something up. What are u testing runoff with? Liquid test? If so they don't work for runoff pH. Need a pH pen to properly read. Unless your good with figuring out subtracting brown from greenish brown lol.
What type of soil are u using? Did you add anything? What type of nutes? Need quite abit more info.
And for future reference, don't ever feed soil 5.5 pH for Christ sake lol sorry to yell at ya.

Cheers man report back and I'd be glad to help ya figure this out.

 

[Stumped]

Just seen the pics, lol sorry I'm using some android app didn't see the pics. That's definitely pH problems. Fix with feeding or watering at 6.5 again. If your runoff is 7 and plants looked fine. Your test kit or pen is off.

 

[PeytonManning]

Yeah I think I told him it looked like potassium deficiency. Lockout associated? But then he mentioned the pH. Figured he over buffered it. Sent him here to get your expert advice since I don't know much of anything about soil

 

[skunnymonster]

Clownfish, the raised leaf fringes can be caused by toxic salt build up, lack of water or heat stress. I'll presume your temps are fine & it's been watered. The older leaves look fine on the colour, edges & tips which indicates you've no deficiency to worry about just yet. You said you've fed with just ph'd water but this doesn't remove salt build up. My advice would be to give it a good flush using 1/4 strength nutrients, you're in 12L airpots so you need to flush with 36 litres to clear out all the salts. The 1/4 strength nutrient mix will help pull the salts out. Do this & see how it goes. If the leaf fringes return to normal we know it's fixed so keep us posted in here & if it's not solved then we can look at how the symptoms have progressed & take it from there

 

[skunnymonster]

I think erratic ph fluctuations could be causing the brown tips but I deffo think he's got a salt build up with the raised fringes

 

[Stumped]

I think his course of action should be going back to feeding at 6.5 pH. See if pH is the issue before he goes chasing other options.

 

[Stumped]

Flushing with 6.5 not feeding I meant to say.
