    Best bet is feed the used coffee grounds to the worms like we do in my house and months later you have some outstanding compost.

      I had flushed several times but it still remained yellow. I also tried various nutes (calmag, azomite, epsom salt) and it did not respond to those either. Since that last post, I started feeding every other water with Fox Farms Grow Big and am finally starting to see improvement. Looks much greener now. Don't know what it was missing but FFGB seems to have it. Its the one in the middle along the back wall. I was waiting until I nursed it back to health before starting flower. Maybe soon...

        Should I? (defoliate) This is only my second grow and I've read that newbies often do more damage than good pruning. My first grow had a lot of small buds. I wouldn't mind trading total yield for larger buds (and less time in trim jail) but am afraid of creating problems.

      Get some Calcium Chloride and make a 1200 ppm solution and add directly to the soil. It will eliminate any Ca problems in 24 hrs. Be careful as it is habit forming....
