i actually earlier in the day, before the really offensive guy posted, started to write that you are getting some of it wrong. But then I stopped writing, because I found I myself was lacking knowledge on the subject.
But my thoughts were that the pH scale is exponential and not linear. pH 6...
well
it's funny cuz i've never seen this written clearly in a guide or an educated post, but i've seen many people here (even reputable forum users) giving advice that may be understood as saying that flushing plants speeds up their ripening process, and once you've reached a certain point...
skimping on information huh? that's not gonna help anyone to help you.
i imagine you have other plants as well. do they have the same problem? what strain is it?
well they seem way younger than 8 weeks flower. guess you got a very slow pheno.
however, lack of crystals at this stage may indicate poor genetics.
tell us about your setup - esp. stain, medium, nutrition and light.
yeah it's pH perfect... for hydro!
if you grow in soil, you need soil nutrients. like your other nutes, these nutes by AN will buffer your solution way too low for soil. switch to hydro or get some soil nutes.
the plants are small for their age and that light. your problem looks like pH lockout, possibly causing a magnesium deficiency (could be something else). what do you feed them? what water do you use? hard/soft/RO? what soil is it in? what's the size of the container?
it will be a good smoke...
i've found that putting in the oven on 100 celsius for 20 minutes can get a bud nice and dry without doing horrible things to it like a microwave. but only for emergencies of course. best to dry and cure properly.
plants are 72 days in flower
finishing soon i hope
i've been giving some pk13/14 lately along with the 8-6-10 coco fertilizer. I was giving 1.5 EC, now I give 0.7 (also give some molasses)
so yeah they grow in coco
these are hindu kush
would love to hear what you think about these...
oh. well, still, are you sure about close to finish so soon? that's quite rare to happen.
anyways, like molasses, honey is pretty good nutrition for a plant, and causes no taste issues (it's organic and all).
you need different EC/tds levels for different growth stages
basically, in my book it's EC 0.2 max for seedlings, 0.5 for early veg, 1.5 late veg till 1.8 max in flowering. but it varies greatly between strains and growers. if you grow in soil, don't worry about EC.
at this point, all you can do is count your losses. let them finish if they're already seeded, one week won't matter much.
and don't worry about it, it will still be a very good smoke. how's the yield looking?
that plant has no hope. if you can, start over in a more friendly medium like said above. if not, you may have to wait very long till it recovers, and i seriously doubt that it will.
i had a couple of sacks show up on bottom parts of one of my plants. this was about 3-4 weeks in. best plant in the batch, for sure, i wasn't gonna throw it out just like that. I decided to risk it - pulled like 10 or 20 sacks, and since then haven't seen any. no seeds either, i'm day 70 now...
