Hey what aev what's happening my brother.

The first two leaves had been sprayed with azamax but not the third. It's not heat stress, temps average in the low 80's in the summer. Think I'll incorporate some hygrozyme into my regiment and start using lighter doses of nutes. Usually they get fed with every other watering but maybe it should be every third watering. In any case,,,,less nutes lol!

how did you like the Artic Express mang?

My .02 You need a bit more Mg, just a tsp of epsom salt top dressed should correct you time release style. If it were burn it would be top down as you correctly stated. Low Mg can cause a lockout but it looks like it's hungry too, I wouldn't back off the nutes before you correct the Mg, you may end up bumping them. Mg can be sprayed as foliar as well if you want quicker results.

It's awesome so far I'm letting it get a good cure before I put too much thought into judging it. I still have a bit left on the table I need to harvest. Feeding every other water w full strength is way to much! Try cutting back more than you would on first thought

Mg was the one that would always lock out on me first if I was overfeeding... I'd get a little leaf curl (if that, even) but I'd immediately start getting that necrotic crispry brown shit going on...

Guys, please remind me... Hygrozyme does what again? I thought it ate up dead root mass or something . . . . enzymatic phagocytosis stuff, right? Hah. That made me sound smart.

I think a light nute burn would start at the top and be shown in the fresh leaves, but a heavy nute burn will just fry the whole plant like that. in my experiances. I fried some plants one year.. will never do that again..i tend not to use my nutes at full strength..

Thanks for the help everyone. Thinking that I'll take your advice cowboy and topdress with 1 tsp (doesn't seem like much for a 3.5 gal container though) but I will back off on the nutes a bit. Definitely noticed the frying starting to get bad around the same time that I increased their feed schedule. I have six blue dream dom that are vegging in 3.5 gal but are young enough so there is not any burning going on yet. I'll use them to try and judge how much to feed.

Come to think of it, out of the run that's coming down in a few days, 2 blueberry, 2 DOG and 2 C4, the bb get almost no nutes and the C4 gets low doses and neither of those strains have that burning going on. And speaking of them, it's time to get wake them up lol :)

Blueberry at 7.5 wks with one dose of Cornucopia Energy at week 1 of flower and one dose of Cornucopia X halfway through flowering. Can't afford the Nitrozyme right now so I just started supplementing with mollases (2 or 3 times) and everything gets Earth Juice every couple of weeks. The yeild on the Blueberry varies greatly depending on how she's grown. She very finicky and these girls here are as chunky as they get :)

I got to thinking about the part where you say your using full strength nutes, that's not like you! lol
As for the Mg, it doesn't take much usually. I know you use dolomite lime which usually has some Ca/Mg in it too most water sources have extra calcium but often lack the magnesium necessary to balance the intake many strains want (people need this balance also, can't intake the Ca without the Mg, there are some interesting studies about Mg deficiencies in people). Additionally these micro-elements fluctuate in their sources so this run may be circumstantially different in your additives. This is the kind of stuff that gets folks to using RO water and controlling specific minerals too. If it makes you feel better I have had similar issues lately causing me to employ better water filtration and tighter control of these variables as well. You would be surprised to see the quality fluctuation in water supplies.

Thanks cowboy.

I think I have been slowly almost without realizing it, pushing the girls with the nutes to see what they can take. Your right, I used to subscribe to the theory of less is more, which I got from Rick the guy who makes the Cornucopia. The Blueberry and C4 did real good with minimal nutes and didn't burn up like everyone else.

Took some shots of the GDP x Blue Dream yesterday. Now that is some nice smelling pot I tell ya, especially the GDP phenos. Thinking I'm going to keep it all mwahaha :blsmoke:
