The dog had it figured out way before me. Matter of fact according to her she's not a dog so to her sleeping on beds is totally fine...

Friends, it is with my head down and my pride shoved down my throat that I face you tonight (drama time baby! It's the lucky hour!). My negligence, stonery and procrastination have culminated into one motherfucking stressful week at the Acres, pardon my French. Read this and remember, what not to do. As it always does around here it started with thrips. I sprayed them once then another time a week later. Bad. Follow up within 2-3 days max. Damn it lucky you know better! Yup, I do. Part of my other business is to use pesticides(not the friendly ones) and I hate mixing the stuff and spraying, can't stand it. So I do it as little as needed and it works out fine. Not so much with a (potential) cash crop. So thrips "came" back again and again...to the point I had to do something and do it right the first time. Grow shop stoner dude suggested azamax at 1oz per gallon 3 or 4 days in a row. Fine by me. Desperate times...the result is on the pictures, droopy hell hole of a shed...for x y z reason...
Another thing to consider is my frankensteining of nutes feeding. Realized that emerald harvest's sturdy stalk and cal mag should be used on water only days. Been using it every time I feed them but straight h2o on water days. Maybe that's what causes the curling of those top new shoots on the veggers? Also, and I feel stupid having thought it was going to be fine, I have left over tiger bloom from AN. Been adding it to emerald harvest nutes for the bloomers, all of it full doses....tsss, tsss, tsss, lucky what the fuck where you thinking? I wasn't apparently, not at all...nutes lock up causing the curling down? And drooping? Last feeding was Sunday. Run offs were phed at 6-6.5. Same with soil ph and nutes feed.
Also, could all the spraying of azamax coat the leaves so much that they're chocking? Could I water veg and flo with straight water to clean them up? Use a small amount of soap too?
Last but not least. The lec. Oh yeah sure go ahead, take away the t5 bay and replace it with a lec315 and after only a day or two against all the manufacturer's recommendations and basic common sense really, just drop the fucker about 13" from the top! It will be fine I promise! Sigh...burnt leaves...which I didn't see right away of course because the leds next to it turn everything purple! My one clue should have been the burning sensation on my hands every time I work under those lights, damn Damn brain!
So.........as of tonight Thursday, the last azamax spray for veggers(3rd appl.) and flowers(2nd appl.) was Tuesday am (no lights on etc...did that one right...). I flushed all the plants with phed straight water Wednesday night. Things seem to be improving slowly. The veggers, the new growth are reverting back away from the curling. The flowers, leaves are straightening up a bit, I think the chi has started to flow again. Thrips on the other hand are nowhere to be seen, that part seems to have worked. Once everyone is healthy again, I'll spray the veggers only one more time.
Right now I don't know what I'll end up with with all this stunted growth in this part of the cycle. Time will tell. Until then thanks for stopping by and yup go ahead kick right here, that's my ass, go for it, I deserve it...thanks...

No worries, well deserved and well taken! I'd have done the same with you! 😅😅
Was just driving and figured out what's going on, my season is about to start, and I'm not ready for it at all, body and mind. Been distracting me. Body pains have been messing with my head too I think at the upcoming work doom. I like my job I'm just getting too broken for it, anyways getting my head back in the game on both fronts. Will do the rinse and h2oo asap. 😇😎💨💨💨

Course corrected, grip gotten, head pulled out of arse and thrown back in game, full tilt forward...the ladies are responding very well to the h2oo flush, water spray, lights moved up and bugs gone...still a bit of leaf tip drooping but that could be the fact they haven't been able to dry much with all the various flushings. Few more days and it will be a bad memory. Will keep on monitoring for thrips in both rooms but no more sprayin flower, it is what it is. The veggers will get a few more preventative rounds before scrogging. Green thanks for a stopping by and advising, I'm serious man if it ever gets down to titles you're the consigliere and nebula is the godmother (Pacino style not the twinkle bell bs!)!

Hey guys, thanks, yeah the sd definitely flipped off the whole drama with one gigantic cola up in the air, "bring it on!" I heard them whisper I think...the veggers still look like they just got unfolded out of some old drawer but they're coming back, big dirty isn't as resilient as sour diesel.

Thanks green! I had great support! I did my thing in there the other day to get them back and basically walked away last couple days, couldn't bear the sights anymore, last night was a pleasant surprise for sure. I know why now everyone says sd is an easy strain to grow, the bastards can handle just about anything! Sour Diesel and cockroaches will be left standing alone after the nuclear holocaust!
Your plants look great in these pictures! Definitely let us know how they're developing!

Well funny you ask Nebula, Thursday is journal day. Here it goes!
3/5 water only to the veggers and nuke em foliar spray then full nutes without calmag on 3/8.
3/7 full nutes to the flowerers
Made cannabutter on Friday which I used to make brownies on Saturday. been catching up on my sleep, I eat a little square before bedtime and see ya !
On Tuesday I got tired of looking at those damaged leaves so I defoliated the vegging big dirties...
In other news I met with someone who's going to be my patient. Results? Free meds for him and I just went from being able to grow legally 6 mature plants to ....12! All sanctioned by the state, I still have a hard time registering all this, this new freedom can be much to fully appreciate. But there'll be an outdoor harvest this year after all! No money to build and set up another shed....yet...My seeds are on the way and I got a forest of clones in the waiting room, already planning the outdoor area.
The flower room is doing great. I pluck sample leaves once or twice a day to check for any signs of thrips but all I find are rare motionless white larvaes.
The buds are sticky the way they should, waiting at this point...just passed the half way point for the sour diesel and their 10 week cycle. Big dirty has another 2-3 weeks max.
Alright gonna stop now before I start blabbering endlessly. Thanks for stopping by!

Everything is shaping up great! I can't wait to hear how the LED and LEC-grown buds compare to each other

Yeah I thought I could tell the difference but I'm not sure anymore...which tells me something right?, 1200 vs 315 and same looking results...so far...
