Converted dresser 250w BlimBurn Freebies (Orka/Kabrales)

[Skittles McP]

Now there is also a problem I'm currently havin that I'm hoping someone can help me with. I started noticing some small chunks taken out of a few leaves. Not much, so little in fact that I didn't bother thinking it was any big deal. And it actually stopped for a few days, no new leaf damage, problem solved or so I thought. I check the leaves this morning and there might have been a little bit of new missing leaf chunks, I still thought it was so little that it was no big deal, I go look at the plants again about 6 hours later, and there is literally almost and entire leaf gone! not just one leaf of the seven on the end of the stem, but 5 and 1/2 of the seven leafs on the end of the stem are gone, eaten clean off, as well as a few other leaves have new damage. WTF!?!?!!
I can't find anything on the plant, I've scoured that thing over and over and nothing. The only thing I think it might be is a catepillar or a vine weevil, but I haven't seen any traces of pests except the damage. No bugs, no bug poop, no larvae, nothing. The weird thing is that usually the little bits of damage were happening at night with lights off, but this large amount that suddenly happened was during the day. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

if you cant see the pest when inspecting the plant, then that pest is coming in after dark , slow moving sucker to i bet,, like an ole slug, you could put out some bug killer,, like slug bait,, lol,, not on your plants bur around the rim of the container,, if it walks thru it on the way to eat your plant, you woull find it laying there dead!!! wow

Thanks for the advice! I'm hoping I can catch it or kill it somehow because the problem is only getting progressively worse. I'm going to try and put some traps out.

You know what, there was this one time slugs kept coming into my hosue, so what I did was make a small maze out of salt... and in the middle was a leaf of lettuce, so the one lucky bastard that made it through had a nice prize at the end.. the others fried.

So you could try the same lol

but honestly lovely grow there, you could try installing a cooltube for that small space, but your fan would also have to be a bit bigger. I've been fighting with heat problems from the beggining, but once I bought a new fan, cooltube and a smaller oscillating fan, things have been good.

Things are going pretty well. On day 29 of flower now. It started packing on some weight and the frostiness is expanding more and more.
Having a little problem with the fan leaves yellowing. At first I was attributing it to nitrogen deficiency with the change in nutrients, but it started to get worse and there was some brown spots popping up. My guess is manganese but idk at this point. I flushed with low nutrient solution and hopefully once I start the regimen up again she'll be fine.

Here's some more pics from today

So here are some of the leaves I trimmed today. These were the worst ones but there are a few others I can see starting to get this bad given a few more days.
I'm on week 5 of flower, specifically day 31.
I flushed yesterday with ph 6.1 low nutrient solution.
Anyone know what this could possibly be?

Day 36 of flower, buds are super sticky and getting a little fatter. A couple of the tips are too close to the light so I had to reach and tie them down and my fingers are covered in goo. Smells like skunky pine cleaner. If you smell it just sitting there though it still smells kinda like baby puke. I've heard people describe that before and thought "how the fuck can they say that smells good" but let me tell you, when you're looking at your plant it certainly does. The leaf problem seems to have stabilized, maybe gotten just a tad worse, but it definitely slowed down.
I can't wait to see fat these buds get. I can see a a few nice colas taking shape already.

 

[Skittles McP]

Well, the worst has happened. To make a long story short, I went on vacation for 7 days and I left the plant with enough water for 4 days, I really thought it could make it an extra 3 days no problem. It didn't...



The entire plant seems dried out, the stems still have a little bend in them. The leaves are crispy. These pics are after 2 days of giving it water and misting it but no change really that I can see, just maybe the buds are filling back out a little. So what should I do, keep trying to revive it or scrap it and see what I can salvage from the bud?

Did it die?

 

[Skittles McP]

I tried to revive it for a few days but it was just too far gone, the roots weren't absorbing any water. I chopped it and salvaged what was there. Unfortunately I missed the mark on drying it out because it had already been dry for so long, so I let it dry for too long and ruined any chance for a good cure. Good news is, the bud is still smokeable and not all that bad. It could taste a little better but that's my only complaint. Gets you ripped for a good 2 hours and then a nice relaxed stone for a few more hours.

 

[Skittles McP]

I haven't weighed it and probably won't. Will be making butter with the trim as well, which there was actually a considerable amount of.

 

[Skittles McP]

But as far as amount of bud I got, it is probably two sandwich baggies worth

It's the journey not the destination, although the destination gets you high

 

[micro.grower]

Yeah bud... That first grow is always about getting the new environment set to spec. I used to just grow out some random bag seeds when getting mine dialed in.
