Hey BKB. Looking mighty lush. nice photos.
What is that purple angle dust stuff i spy in your purple le pews? i wonder if they smell like a skunk..lol
they are mighty indica looking, im def looking fowrd getting my 12/12 plps started in a few weeks. it will be nice to tag right behind you here.
The deficency you have with Sasha looks like something i have seen before in a book that i dont have with me right now.
Are you using any type of vitamin/mineral boost in you hydro system?
whats an rwdc?
i also have made nute mixing mistakes when stoned. When mixing nutes i have to pause and really focus when high..
take it easy bkb.
found this picture for you .. cal mag deficiency.

Yo some strains yellow in flower regardless, especially on older growth. They will pull food from the leaves, and then shed the leaf when they are done.

If she is still yellowing like that, she probably needs more food...

thats interesting BC99. so should i really should be paying closer attention to the stem of the leaf to determine its health?
leaf damage and causes are what baffel. I am hoping one day someone will invent a ppm meter of sorts that can tell exactly what is defecienct in your runoff.

It depends, some strains have pink/purple stems regardless, but you can usually see it evident in the entire plant. Primarily with Kush's that I have noticed.

Otherwise, a non-green stem is a sign usually that something is off.

You have to keep an eye on the whole plant, not just the leaves, or the stems, or one piece of the whole puzzle.

However, this is the last time i will say this.

NO PLANT IS EVER GOING TO BE PERFECT

on that note, you can strive for perfection, or as close as you want, but at some point you are going to drive yourself crazy over every little thing that pops up.

I dont think its so much a Cal/Mag problem cause her stems of the leaves are healthy and green so thats why I am thinking more "P" or "K". Although the little brown dots do resemble a Cal deficiency but I really think she needs more PPMs of food! She doesnt have any purple stems either, they are green and healthy looking....

Last feeding for Sasha (20ml per gallon of X Bloom, 15ml per gallon of X Micro, 5ml per gallon of X Grow, 5ml per gallon of Silica Shield). I do have a couple of bloom boosters and other supplements for bloom, I might use one. Any recommendations on a good Flowering Booster maybe???

Just to clear things up here, I am not losing sleep or stressing over this at all!!!!! I just want to know what the problem is so I can learn from it. I done things to try to over come what is happening with the plant and it continues to do the yellowing and spots. So to me, its a learning curve of the strain that I am growing....

@BC99 my bad if you feel your repeating yourself but I am just trying to learn what you already know about growing!!

Peace

BKB

Welcome back KMK!!!! Yeah MD is a heavy eater!! I also got to take in consideration too that my Skunkijuana is prolly the largest plant I ever grown so I am still learning how to feed her right!!!

Peace

Tell Sasha to eat a banana, and she will feel all better ;) lol


"Solution: Potassium isn't absorbed properly when there is too much calcium or nitrogen in the system. Check the pH of your water, and flush your whole system with water that contains half the normal amount of nutrients and see if your plant starts showing signs of improvement."

Also, you were asking about her drinking habits.

Past couple of days have been unseasonably hot for our area, the high temps most like cause her to drink her rez up faster.

BKB i agree with bc, its potassium (k). i say that due to color and the freckle like spots. the first time you ask the spots were not shown, just some splotching n dieing in the leaf making me think it was phosphorus. like before and as bc99 advised i think its no biggie, dont chase it you just might make things worse by locking out something. not that i think your locked out just sasha is a high (k) feeder and pulling from the older going out leaves what she needs. not really a sign of anything wrong just a learning tool as to how this cut feeds. imo sasha looks great!!!

Thanks, and BKB I wasnt trying to sound like an ass, i just know how you stress sometimes ;) and I didnt want you stresing, or thinking something was terribly wrong.

IMHO I would up her bloom to 25 ml/gal on her next rez change. Thats full strength according to the schedule ;)

My plants are rarely pretty as a whole, bad leaves abound, but the buds always turn out really nice. I think if anything I am sacrificing yield, but not quality.

Stiffler's Mom Flowering Day 22 (Her buds are developing very fast, never really seen buds look like this at 3 weeks of flowering, I am going to dust a branch with some Cougar Male jizzle) You can see the Cougar's Buds are larger than the Skunkijuana's buds....Exciting!!!!
