My first cone was out of a Vegemite bong. Brings a tear to eye.

Grands are too cool for school

Turn up the volume now.

If you don’t want to hear an old fucker pissing turn down the volume now. I'm thinking they didn't want to hear it...or see it either.

What a day… spent a grand on food shopping, bought my son his first PS5 spent a shit ton of money on games and extra controllers, drank a half bottle of tequila, wife says this TV from Walmart is only $175 and can be delivered within an hour… I say no fuckin way I’ll bet money on it, my ass hits buy… I’m on the middle of absolutely fucking nowhere this fucker shows up with a 50” in 35 minutes…. Fuck Amazon 20 minutes later I wife’s tellin me hey measure this wall with the cathedral ceiling, here’s my ass walking in a railing measuring a cathedral ceiling over a full staircase balancing on the handrail, so minutes later wife says oh I bought enough wallpaper for that wall…. $600








I went back to teaching my son how to play ace combat 7 on PS5, after 2 more shots realizing I spent damn near 3k today and I never even had to leave my house

Anyways how’s everyone else’s bank account… I mean Saturday

Once I met a wise dude from South America (Venezuela?) while in Amsterdam. He said "Tequila always gets you exactly where you need to be". When I tried to throw in Whisky to the mix he was like "well... I mean it get's you high..." - Still, I thought "good enough for me (and Bobby McGee)" lol.

Hey guys. I'm trying to learn diagnostic.

All leaves looks like this top to bottom.
55 days old in 5 gal store bought dirt.
I gave nutes 2 times. 3 tsp total dry. Dissolved in water home mixed from kelp guana ash and some npk mix to 20-20-40
I gave 1 tsp one day because the lower fan leaves starting to get yellow relative quick.
That helped for 1/2 day, so i gave 2 tsp more 2 days after and noticed dirt had become hydrophobic.
Runoff PH 6.5 and RO water at 6 PH
I also feel the bigger leaves are getting yellow faster than i'm used to. And it is slow at put on weight.
Normally i would not mind to much but i think this one got a little longer flowering. More than a month more.
First i thought nute burn, even though i thought i was on the lower side but then there was also that dry back that came to mind.
The 3 other plants don't have it.
None of the plant drinks much compared to what i'm used to but feels moist and they don't empty the bottom tray for days.
Any thoughts?

Start growing in coco

Amazon should have a breathalyzer requirement.
It's how we wind up with a ceramic Christmas tree just like we had in 1973.

 

[trygrowup]

Thanks @PlumberSoCal2 but how would that help diagnose?
I saw your but do you think that soil is the problem? Also i think coco would be even harder for me to grow in.
I've only grown in soil 3 years or so on and off so i feel quite newbie.

And why I gave up most soil growing. Between gophers and clay in my garden I give up. Pots of store bought soils didn't work any better for me so shit canned growing in soil after many decades. Growing in pots of coco is easier than any other method, imho and after the past 6+ years I now grow all veggies in pots of coco too. From tomatoes to broccoli to Brussels sprouts everything grows better and faster in pots of coco

 

[trygrowup]

Thanks for clarifying @PlumberSoCal2 .
I'll give soil one more year, then consider.
Anyway i went with thinking it was a combo of over/under watering and over/under feeding and gave it some water at 550 ppm. I don't really know what that means in terms of strength but i made some tea and diluted it because it was like 1500 ppm so i will se if it works
Also it had drank the water in bottom tray that was why i went with that. But i'll remember what you said thanks

Given the stage of growth there's not really anything wrong there. The feed is a little on the hot side and the tips showed some burn. You're at the stage you want to be blasting them with about 2.8 right now. You're also coming up on the taper so you're going to be backing it off anyway. If you're not getting a little bit of edge or tip burn you're probably not pushing them hard enough. I would guess the EC is probably sitting around 3.2 and if it was pocketing you'd see only tips on upper plant burning.

Ok thanks @Ninjadogma it just because the leaves is yellowing at a rate it will be without leaves in 2 -3 weeks is my guess. It will make trimming more easy but buds smaller i think.

Thats why i gave it some tea with 500ppm not 550 as i wrote
Other thing is the Ec is new to me and also VDP or what it's called.
It sound a bit complicated.
Thats why i'm trying to learn to grow by the looks mostly, and i'm in progress i feel. For example i got bud rot last year. Thats progress in the sense that the buds getting big enough to rot.

Although i was actually looking at a EC meter a couple days ago but i got so confused about it i decided not to buy one. Hoping i could get along with Ph strips and ppm meter but maybe it's better to re consider.

Yeah you're probably right about the pocket because it was not dry pocket more than a couple of days max i think.

Last thing, What does "on the taper" mean?

 

[Florida_Mike]

First pic is day of flip to 12/12, 1-23-26 (31 days)
Rest are from today, 2-23-26
At least 30 days to go
If I don't flub things up,
We may end up with a cpl monsters
We'll see....

The EC meters are nothing to be afraid of, other then their potential for inaccuracy. It's how to measure the strength of feed because the nutrients have electrical conductivity and it's concentration can be measured. You've heard of ppm and there's meters that will give you ppm but they don't measure ppm, they measure the EC and then convert it to a ppm value. (There are two conversion formulas for EC and for simplicity the 500 method is easier to use.) The way you derive a number if you want to convert ppm to EC is you double the value and add decimals. Example: a 500 ppm feeding has an EC value of 1.0. Converting the other way from EC to ppm you divide the number by half and add zeros. You mentioned you did a 500 ppm feeding, so I presume you have a ppm pen. Again, that actually IS an EC pen, it just doesn't convert for you. The only reason I can think of as to why it is discerned differently is that your EC isn't entirely nutrients. So when you're feeding a plant you want to feed them the proper ppm of the feed, but there is always some potential background EC like from your water supply that limits how strong you can make your feeding because there is a limit to the amount of total EC (eg "salt") the plant can handle.

The taper: Throughout your plants life it has a nutrient demand that grows as the plant matures and then diminishes as the plant winds down its life cycle. If you were to look at it on a graph, it would resemble a bell curve. So when you are planning your feedings, you want to follow that bell curve. If you've seen feeding charts for a nutrient line that shows you week by week what to feed, they have prepared it to follow the demand curve and align with that bell curve demand.

Right around weeks 6-7 of flower the plant hits peak demand. From there, it starts to wind down to finish the life cycle and will require less nutrients, so you want to begin tapering them off incrementally with each feed.

Than you for clearing that out. Now i understand better why they wrote so much about ppm and converting on the shops website. That was actually what confused me so much, so thank you.

So if i understand correct i can use my ppm meter and then convert, that'll be the same as using EC meter?
