RDWC Lemon Skunk Seeds From DNA

Plants are working through a calmg issue. West is seriously afflicted. I sware this plant could catch a cold.

My calmg strength is at 6ml per gallon, 1ml over the "aggressive feeding" concentration. I also top watered with calmg yesterday. South is still putting out gnarly leaves. But going strong.

Quite a pair.

I'm afraid North plant is circling the drain. You may remember this plant had no future growth at the top crotch. I then trimmed off the two leaves it grew in hopes of it finding second gear... well the primary leaves aren't keeping up with the need to manufacture leaf sets, they're drying up. Ironically, there looks to be something growing on the middle. It's tiny, and i dont expect it to grow faster than the rest of the plant dies, but there's something. What I should have done was cut one leaf instead of both, or better yet, cut The leaves in half. Just damage it to promote alternative growth. The roots are still going crazy.

I've decided to add a couple seedlings to the mix. Barney's farm Alcopulco Gold. We'll see how that goes. I've been reading Grandpa Tokins warnings about different strains in the same pot, but I'm kinda dumb, and ignoring his sage advice

Yes plants need more calmag when under leds, And with the two BD LEDs you have your blasting them with alot of led light. So more is needed. Good luck man, they will pull through with some TLC. .

I never knew that about the LEDs. The Black Dogs are still new to me. Thanks man
 
Here are some close pics of the top of the North plant. In the pictures you will see the very top of the tiny plant. Out of focus, or out of frame are 2 primary leaves. The very first two true leaves. They were never meant to be put through what I'm giving them right now and look tatered. In focus you will see the stalk. There are 2 semicircular flat areas that are at 45 degrees or so. These are the remnants of the stems for the 2 leaves I trimmed off. I didn't cut them this close. The remnant stalks dried and fell off. In between these angled areas there should be a nice bud shaped bundle waiting to spit out leaves, but that never happened. There is however a furry little finger making itself known. This is new. Unfortunately the plant is degrading faster than this "finger" can grow.

I'm kind of thinking this thing isnt gonna make it. I figured I'd try to document a the little bit that i can for the next guy. In my mind, It's just such a strange thing.

Dates are to be determined, but there will be a burial at sea (tub 2)for our dear North. Please don't send flowers (they tend to clog) Please make all donations in her name to NORML

Oh yeah... add the pictures. I'm a little high. "Green Crack goood", he said in his best Frankenstein monster voice.

Well... she's terminal but theres still brain activity. Shes down to one primary leaf.

I have some very close pictures showing the fuzzy bumps that have made themselves known in the afflicted area.

Awful shame about that one! I like the fact you gave it a chance, and it's always interesting to see what might have happened. Gd job you popped those other beans.

Sending good energy!
 
Plants are getting over the calmag issue. I flushed really thoroughly. Then I filled it, added a healthy dose of Calimagic ph'd it and let the mix do its thing for a few hours. Layer I added Rapid Start, and "Grow"... keeping it as simple as possible. I rePh'd the mix to 6.2 PPM is at 640.

Look at the roots on the little one. Shame.

Against my better judgement I added 3 Alcapulco Gold seedlings

They are looking much better now Stltoed. The Gold is going to be interesting to watch progress. Best of luck with them.
Thanks man. I've never had such a hard time with s cal. issue. I think the flush, and adding that calmag first help prevent a lock out.

Yeah, I'm on the fence about the AG. The others are so far ahead I may try to hinder their growth with lighting... not sure. I know I'm gonna pay for this haha. Thanks again!
 
Ok... this thing I called a Calmg issue seems to be something else.

Check it out... I started fairly light on the nutes on the 10th. Nutrients were at 380ppm. I'm using Botanicare' s CN17 Grow, Fulvex, Rapid Start, and Hydroguard, i didnt add calcium till later, i didnt want too much in PPM yet. Lights are 32 inches over the plants. Humidity is crazy low at 20%, temps are 79 ish. Added Super Thrive on the 12th. Calmg on the 15th. Calmg was added to a bucket full of nutes... not so bitchen.

Plants had some issues with the leaves. It seriously looked like rust. Rust can be a real bastard to get rid of, you would usually cut the afflicted area off. I cut 2leaves on the 19th. Plants had been under a humidity cup that ended when the "rust" showed

Strong, fairly quick growth, thick stems, very prolific roots. they are doing great except the new leaves start to spot. You can see what's about to happen before the spots turn colors. Also some of the leaves are coming out hooked

These plants really don't seem very stable. I attempted to germinate 12 seeds i got 3. From those 3, one could catch bird flu, it's so tempermental. It's ravaged by this problem. Another was twisted. It grew completely asymmetrical and has hooked leaves, and a mild case of the nutrient issue. The 3rd plant put out 2 true leaves then lost the ability to produce anymore. That was a trip.

I flushed and I switched from Botanicares calmg, which is a fine product. It has the addition of iron. To Calimagic to see if it would help. With RO water I added 300ml Calmg. I let the system sit for a few hours then added the rest should be added first as it can lockout some things out. Ph up can lock out also so it's best to add it as slow as possible. So i thought i was gold. Nope... I can see the fucked upness coming. I added another 50 cal. tonight. So now I'm 100ml over the heavy recommended dose!

I've been studying the various pot diagnosing websites. Grandpa kicked down a nice one. According to the photos the next closest affliction is either Boron, or Manganese. I am trying a new additive called Facilator (spelling?)it ironically has boron in it, so that's next. But it really doesn't look like boron to me, and it's pretty rare.

So ladies and gentlemen I seriously need your help! I made sure I followed the rules, i even tried it the wrong way, i honestly don't know. Please Please Please tell me what I need to do next. This one is aceing my ass!
 
Hey man I'm not a hydro grower but when I used to have ph problems with my soil my plants always had that classic rust spot showing up. I believe it to be a phosphorus or potassium issue. I do not recall whether it was a lack of or abundance. But I believe this to be classic symptoms of a potassium lock due to a ph problem. Maybe check your ph with another meter. Or check with a strip to double check your meters accuracy.

Hope this helps bro

I had a similar looking problem a long time ago and someone recommended Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom Salt). I think I mixed 1 tablespoon to a gallon of RO water as a foliar spray and that worked. I’m horrible at diagnosis though. I hope someone can give you some help bud.

I like this answer better. The ph problem I didn't catch.

Thank you so much for the reply. The Ph is at 6.2. Never venturing below 58 never higher than 6.3. The upper end of this spectrum is right in the money shot for Calmg absorption. It may be possible to be another primary nute shortage though. I'm using a new veg nute. I'll check that, thanks

Ill check that out. I've tried Humex and Calimagic as foliar sprays.

Diagnosing plants sucks. Everyone starts with Calcium. Clearly I need to study up
