      Capncanna, how do you take lights off photos in flower? Do you wait for lights on and kill your grow light for a couple of minutes to take photos? Or just take photos 2 minutes before lights come on?

      After the crazy growing during veg, it feels like nothing's happening. But this morning things are getting frosty ! Lots of new buds. Ph was a little lo 5.3 this morning. Not coming up like it used to, but using a different nute schedule is keeping it steady so need to just start it higher I think.

        So true. Come on come on. 😎 my ph is so lo now it's making me crazy. I got so used to using ph down by the gallon , now ph up ? Had to find the bottle, ha ha. With the rain my tap water is 5.7 . Crazy. Usually above 7.
        Cluck cluck!

        Hey Capn, I've been following your grow for a while, and I keep forgetting to respond. First off, your level of stealth is ninja like. That is the coolest stealth grow I've ever seen! And you are killing it in the grow department as well. Those plants look great! Keep up the good work!

        Thanks mcubed .

      Snow has fallen on cola mountain. Buds are making away. Still keeping ppm around 1140 seems ok so not gonna play with it. I'm so used to fiddling with them it's hard. Feels,like when they were sprouting and I just wanted to do something.
      Im already thinking of all the changes to my grow room. Water and drain being top of the list. Have a great day GWE family.

        Thanks , it was super easy and only GWE folks know about it. I always laugh when someone comes over and looks at it.

      This morning a few top buds started getting a few amber pistols. I'm week 4 into flower. Is that normal?

        That's what mine do. Start turning a couple here and there but continue to produce more white pistils until the end.

            It's on the blueberry, the ww is just white pistols. Thanks

          2 different reservoirs , I'm thinking I need some cal mag. It's just a few leaves .I'm also having ph fluctuation. The small tips that are brown in pic 2 has a ppm of 850 so I don't think it's nute burn. Any ideas?

            Saw that too but it's just the top leaves of 3 places. I'm gonna do a flush tomorrow just to be sure. And back off the nutes. I'm thinking calcium because I'm keeping ph lo for flowering 5.6 and thats out of range for uptake of calcium I think? >6.4 . That's off the top of my head so may be wrong .
            My feeding chart says I should be at 1400 ppm and I'm at 850. So ?
            All our water is from the aquifer and with this rain I wonder if the natural nutes in the water have changed that drastically . The ph has for sure.
            Thanks keep your fingers crossed.

            6.2 is what I was told is best for calcium.. lots of rain will most deff change your water contents

            Thanks gonna try it !

          My guess some type of nute problem, probably calcium(protects against light damage)

            Thanks my guess too, guess I'll go buy some cal mag !

          Did a res change and went to half nutes. Also a complete newbie mistake, my ph meter was off needed calibration. Cal mag comes tomorrow and I will add that. Just when you think you got it, something comes in and blows your mind.

            Oops failed to mention that did a flush! I also can pull my hose in the growmroom now , so I can rinse after the flush and did a good clean. I think the ww has bad genetics as well it had wierd two tof me leaves early on.
            The bb has been great. I checked my water it's been running 380 with nothing in it now it's 200 so doing math duh I've been slamming nutes to keep it at 1000. Learn learn learn. alltatup do you run plain phd water for the last few weeks?

            Yes, I flushed my sativa with AN's Flawless Finish, even though I am skeptical now about the value of the flush. I flushed em for 8 or 9 days.

            Glad to hear you flushed your girls! Ever since I had nute lockout, I guess I suspect everything is that, but here's the deal: we're feeding this specialized cannabis food, and I'm wonder how could they be deficient? So if there's lockout, it will look like a deficiency. When it happened to me, I added calcium and the leaves looked far worse the next day. So I removed everything and replaced with just plain pH'd water for the 48 hour flush. I'm going to do that this weekend to my small box grow, I have the feeling they will bounce back with a vengeance. I think it is a really good idea to do it on a regular basis, I just forget to...

            I try to do it every other week. I agree with you about lock out. I also have been reading a lot about ph and uptake of nutes. It's a small range for certain things. So I also wonder if ph was hi or lo for a week would it not uptake that certain nute. Would look the same as lock out or deficiency? This mornings check should tell a lot. I'll keep you posted.

          I would say if new growth is an indication , all,is well. Buds a poppin. The top leaves are all that was effected and that looks like it stopped. Beginning to think ph was the problem along with a bit of lockout . Still gonna add a touch of cal mag just in case.
          thanks GWE fam.

            Pulled part of the effected leaves and got out the microscope. Did not effect the trichomes at all. Covered and also the veins were still working . So we shall see. Got the ph back up and added AN sensi cal mag. 1/4 strength.
            Have a good day all!

              U 2, Capn.

            Well another lesson, since July we've been getting rain my tap water ppm was 300 . I've been adding nutes on that assumption. Checked today 455 , just under legal limit. So defiantly nute burned them. Lowered my res to 550 ppm with plain water ph 6 . Going to let it run overnight then res change.
            Buds look strong and colas are getting fat. Trichomes galore. Leaves funky but stopped changing color .Fingers crossed.

              Try the plan water.. generally that's how you flush and should flush for better taste anyways

              Capncanna I don't know if you need to flush for an entire week, 48 hours should do it if they overdosed.
