Thanks. Lord knows I'm trying lol.

So checking on the plants to see how everything went I came across this. I think this is something every grower wants to see was seen with the naked eye. And took pics to share.

Hell yeah I wanna find out what ones are female and what are male. Get rid of males and have more space in my tent. And thanks I feel like I've got a good setup thanks to everyone giving input. Next run will be great. Also I have to make sure but my clones are from my female plant.

Nice dude. This old man that’s been growing for decades used to tell me to pay attention to the stipules. If the stipules cross it’s likely a female. If they curl away from each other or just don’t cross then keep your eye on it because it’s likely a male. I’ve never heard anyone else go by this and it’s definitely not like a scientific or proven method as far as I know but my small handful of experiences using that as a general rule of thumb has worked out well for me and I can’t think of a time that it’s ever been wrong. If you don’t know what the stipules are google it. They’re those little green hairs that grow on the stalk at each node. @Rolandomota

This is bad ass info bro. You know what's funny that you say that my female was just as you described. Imma run a test and see what's up thanks again

So I was looking at my plants earlier and I believe I have got nitrogen toxicity. These pics were from before lights out. I'll have to see how my plants look in the morning. From what I've read and trying to understand what's going on is since I switch to flower I needed to use nutes that are for flower. So I should have dropped one of the nutes I used for the other one I didnt use. Another thing I read was that plants in flower dont require much nitrogen??? I dont know how true this is. But all I know is I have what seems to be a issue and i must fix it.

 

[MIMedGrower]

You may have added nutes too early. There could be a good amount of nutes left. Also the hard water if i remember right will contribute to lockout.

The only cure is to run fresh water through.

Long story short that's all bullshit... Just fed em to much. Little bit of tip burn they will be fine. Trying to fix it will cause you more problems. Just cut the nutes back next time. Those manufacturers recommendations are also bullshit as you can see

 

[Aqua Man]

Also a RO unit would be a good investment. If @MIMedGrower feels a flush will benefit you then I would do it... I have 1 grow in soil

Ok 10 4 so I guess do a flush run just plain water right? Should I check for a certain ppm in the run off? Also I have not checked all the plants these were just the 2 at the very front of tent.

Yeah they are lmao. Also my water had a higher ppm then last time. Water was at 305 ppm.

 

[MIMedGrower]

Not a heavy flush. Just fresh water to runoff and see whats going on. Then decide what to do. I dont remember how long ago the feed was either.

Ro unit let me ask this will I have to add calcium and any other stuff to the water working with ro?

 

[MIMedGrower]

With 300 ppm in the water it is hard to get nutes to uptake. Like i said. You may or may not need to address that.

 

[MIMedGrower]

No. You mix the ro water 50/50 with tap and get 150 ppm or close enough.
