I couldn't be more happy for you Farmbuck! Thats great news!

[PLreef]

I fed cal/mag and voodoo juice yesterday. When I got up this am I checked the tent and all my girls are up and praying! Doesnt look like there are anymore new spots. I'm sure this whole thing is gonna effect my harvest/yield but a week ago I didn't think I'd have a harvest.

[Farmbuck]

Yes finally !! Happy to hear the good news PLreef.

I'm not going to do any more LST on them cuz I'm pretty sure they were affected by this and they don't need the stress anymore. So would you agreed with PRO-MIX it require more Cal-Mag ?

[PLreef]

Absolutely, I also have been feeding with a higher ph than normal. Around 6.8 to 7. Don't want to put the cart before the horse but I think we just might have a handle on this Farmbuck.

[BR2K]

YES - Congratulations!

[Farmbuck]

Thanks BR2K but the battle is not over yet. The first 3 weeks of flowering will be crucial.

[Farmbuck]

Enter flowering exit vegging... The girls are a little bit better today after a good feed of Ancient Earth and molasses and maintaining my PH at 7.0. Tomorrow another dose of Cal-Mag. It's official they are now in flowering phase for a few months.

[SoOrbudgal]

Hello and it's so good to see you have pushed on with these plants. Did your wife have any thoughts concerning your growing issues? Just wondering if she takes a look now and then? My hubby does and asks " how much longer?" He likes to peek an touch the ripest tops.

[Farmbuck]

Well merci beaucoup SoOrbudgal lolllll wife is more concern about her Mazar Kush and her tomatoes. Our italian peppers are just flowering but they are not producing anything. Wonder if it's that bloody promix ??? Anyway need to go and buy me some more wine lolll So stay safe and have a great day my western friend.

[JohnEmad]

Glad you and the plants made it to flower. I would not have thought ProMix would need xtra calmag like coco coir does with added gypsum in it. Perhaps its the magnesium that's missing.
Either way things are looking real nice.

[Farmbuck]

Thanks John also by keeping the PH at 7 seems to work also. Not sure but maybe the Pro-Mix kind of lower my PH, anyway I'll see in a few weeks. For now I need to keep the girls healthy.

[SoOrbudgal]

I just came home from town with my cats. Ever have cats in a carrier in the car? OMG i need a liter of cab right now...............I like your wife LOL Farmbuck.

[Canuck147]

I've been reading along from when you started Farmbuck - 2 things - maybe you and all your plants - veggies included also - are just not used to growing on top of tundra - I mean that cold gets into your foundation and just kinda seeps up - so you and your wife don't normally grow when it's cold outside. You're more used to being on a beach in Mexico during the cold season.
Which brings me to the other thing.
Because you two would rather be elsewhere right now - all your negative talk about everything in front of your plants is no good.

Just my guess and opinion.

[Farmbuck]

Well your are quite right Canuck147, the negativity is not good for us and mostly for the plants. I'm sorry to tell you but I just don't like being in the cold. But on the bright side I believe I found my problem with the pro-mix, On yes one more thing it's not that we like being on the wild beach of Chuburna a seclude yucatan fisherman's village, it's being away from our friends sir. But I promise i'll try not to complain too much. After all I'm only human hey ?

Cheers,

FarmBuck

[Farmbuck]

A good recovery ? I say yes. Maintaining the PH at 7.0 and feeding Cal-Mag twice a week.

[SoOrbudgal]

Looking alot better Farmbuck

[PLreef]

Great recovery! I'm glad they bounced back for you!!

[Dieselgrower]

very cool! glad they bounced back for ya.

[Farmbuck]

Thank you fellow growers I'm thinking of feeding them this weekend with some Alaska fish for the last time and continue with my "prescription" of Cal-mag and Big Bud and on occasion some molasses and banana tea.

[BR2K]

Awesome news, keep it up!

[Farmbuck]

With some tender loving care but mostly perseverance, the girls bounce back to life especially my lovable Kali China girls. Won't do any LST or canopy level just concentring on the buds growing.

[Farmbuck]

It's my girls that are beautiful. I'm just the photographer lollll

[Dieselgrower]

looks like they really bounced back for you, they look great

[JohnEmad]

Hooray for perseverance and Kali China. That's looking to be a fantastic crop. They are all praying for more of the good stuff.

[CaptainWiese91]

[Farmbuck]

[SoOrbudgal]
