Woah dude nice nutrient profile! How do you go about identifying each elements amount in the solution anyway?
I have often heard that yellowing leaves in the last few weeks of flower is a common thing, especially when one uses low N bloom ferts. Isn't the smoke smoother when the leaves have faded a bit?
I am liking those nugs, but that BH x KM #3 is calling me especially with its sativa tendencies! Loving that frost mang!

Looks a lot like a Mag def to me. Is the bottom of the plant further along than this leaf? Could be some build up that's causing lock out. Flushing is probably the best way to go.

Shady just a heads up all of my Master x Bubba would do this before they went Purple if you go back to my 8 x 1000 watt grow you will see them go yellow then almost black..I was super suprized last round when they did not change color on you.Alot of the clubs that are selling here are calling her Purple Master Bubba... Looking good Bro JACK
Holy Nuts man. Dude the flowers look legit man, top notch brotha.
I reckon you will have the def/lock situ under control real soon, I have full confidence in you making the right decision.
Whaddup RF! Thx for the words of encouragement... Kinda been stressing on the job search and the garden, but maybe a road trip will get my mind off things over here. I'll touch base with you soon... :character0201:Hey Shady, wow man your Raskal OG #3 looks GREAT dood. Id def love a cut of that and your DUD 3, cause man looks like those are some winners!! Your def doing good man, dont worry about the def.s, 1st time in coco, id say its a success my man.
And come thru anytime man, we gotta sample that bubble together, its out of this world! Like your budshots!
Later holmes!
Thx for the info on the Kelp! I think I should up my dosage on the Flora Blend. Yeah bro... This kind of lockout or deficiencies seem to occur between weeks 5 through 7 since Round 3... Doesn't seem to matter if it's PBP in soil or GH in hydro... Weird. Also this round I haven't used as much Bud Candy as I do in soil... Maybe the micro herd is hungry? :wonderingDamn dude all those close up nug shots are looking excellent!
As for the m x b leaf I wouldn't worry about it too much as R face said since you will be finishing up soon anyway, but I can understand the desire to well....understand haha.
It is possible that you have lockout from salt build up. Have you been getting 10-15% run off from the coco when you water?
What mike said is also a possibility since your micro doesn't contain any zinc? witch is kinda weird, but I use earth juice micro blast if I need a micro boost. I actually only used it a few times this round though cuz the soul has micro nutes in it.
So you said this has been a reoccurring situation throughout the last few rounds? has it been happening to just the coco/soil or the hydro as well? hmmm very interesting. I would personally try adding some type of kelp product whether it be liquid kelp added to the nute mix or kelp meal added to the coco to help with micro nute uptake, since kelp contains a far more diverse variety of natural micros then any micro nute product.
Or as you said It might just be a little bit of lockout. Your EC is at about 2.5 right? Either way those nugs look great man!
Thx bro! ROG #3 is starting to blossom... :mmm Click on the quote to see the rest of the picts in the LED journal.Yeah that ROG is looking great. How you liking the smell of her, gotta love that scent.
Any pics of your exhaust inside your tent?
I agree on the flushing Supa... There seems to be a very fine line with RO and CalMag. I just reread Round 3 where I went a little too high on the CalMag and don't want to make the same mistake. :itwasntme The lockout is beginning on the middle of the plant and progressing upwards. The lower leaves below the screen are still relatively green, but I can see this interveinal chlorosis is starting there too...Looks a lot like a Mag def to me. Is the bottom of the plant further along than this leaf? Could be some build up that's causing lock out. Flushing is probably the best way to go.

Hi Jack! Aww man... I looked at your 8 kW and saw the yellowing leaves you mentioned and then I was reminded at how huge your MxB cola's were at the same point... Amazing work brother! One day I'll rock 1000 W... :smirk Until then, UCMESOON...Shady just a heads up all of my Master x Bubba would do this before they went Purple if you go back to my 8 x 1000 watt grow you will see them go yellow then almost black..I was super suprized last round when they did not change color on you.Alot of the clubs that are selling here are calling her Purple Master Bubba...

Yeah brah... BadFish's trees are still burned into my mind... Absolutely stunning work in The Wherehouse. :anim_19:Same thing in BadFish's vertical grow Shady! I was wondering if this was the case... Why would everything be so off? Cool of Jack to chime in with this call!
It does look very much like a Zinc def although this is occuring on the oldest fan leaves closest to the light, as opposed to the new leaf growth in that picture from the def thread... interestingly elevated levels of Phosphorus and Calcium can aggravate the uptake of Zinc. :thinkingafter you see that (prev post) you tell me what you think it is shady ? im putting a pic of your leaf for side by side
Thx for the help HT... I think there's a salt buildup from excessive watering with the drip system, as opposed to watering only when the pots were light. Shit, now it seems as if I don't feed them enough, but it may just be a lockout... :worried As for my OG, hopefully she'll start to put on some weight in the next few weeks, but she'll never yield anything like your Casey Jones.Holy Nuts man. Dude the flowers look legit man, top notch brotha.
I reckon you will have the def/lock situ under control real soon, I have full confidence in you making the right decision. If you have done enough research and feel one with the plant and the medium then going with the gut will most likely result in the right choice.
I don't know why but I am really feelin it, well I do know why it looks bomb.
Hmmm, I've never used Clearex, but I've heard that it's pretty good and pretty much the same as Flora Kleen. Both help break the covalent bonds in the salts and allow the medium to be flushed more effectively and without having to run 3x the pot with straight water... :icon_spin:Amen HT. Shady has it on lock and he will surely figure it out!
Yo shady I got a Q for ya. I am thinking about using a flushing product at somepoint during the last 2 weeks. Would you recommend Flora Kleen over botanicare's Clearex?
Yeah brah... BadFish's trees are still burned into my mind... Absolutely stunning work in The Wherehouse.
In any event, I honestly think there must be sufficient salts, from GH’s 3 part formula and the additional base to raise the pH, that will accumulate over time and create a lockout situation.
looks dank as fuck shady im a lil curious thou they kinda look undersized dont get me wrong looks dank as fuck but a lil under sized for week 6? im a lil curious as to what you yield is per plant and the size of those plants do you think they could be bulkier do i dont think you flower under mh but they kinda look like it idk just a thought
Damn nice buds shady! Look at that frost on the raskal og #3. Looks like you have me beat in the frost department this time around. I need to up my resin production like that. And i still love that BH x KM #3. Seriously man what is up with all the #3 ones gaining status of ultimate?!
That seems like quite the logical thought right there since GH's 3 part should contain practically all of the "necessary" elements for plant growth.
Since you think that a build up over time has happened that would mean the salts your plant doesn't want just build up right? So does that mean you should somehow tweak the GH feeding schedule in order to protect against that salt build up as in figure out the right amounts of grow/micro/bloom so that your plant doesn't leave as many unwanted salts behind or you could flush with Flora kleen every few weeks? What do you plan to do to counter this?
