Can I ask you a quick question here regarding what appears to be a growing N deficiency in some of my plants? I'd start a new thread, but we have so many "My leaves are yellow!" threads I figured I'd do some reading first, plus, I was hoping to get your specific input on it.

have you tried feeding it some nitrogen? :mrgreen:

i like to keep the nitrogen way up. i feed and feed and feed until the leaf tis just start to turn white. then i back off just 1 click. as soon as they start to fade at all i bump up the nitro. i feed nitrogen throughout flowering. :blsmoke:

I've been afraid because previously every time I used N (any ferts) their leaves would start to crisp up at the tips. So the day before yesterday I hit 'em all with a half dose of fish emulsion. I haven't seen any signs of flowering/preflowering, either.. then again, my eyes have really begun to deteriorate. :x (that's me, squinting) I will hit them again today, but AFTER I work on their LST sessions, that is truly some damn stinky shit.
You don't do housecalls, do you? :lol: (Only half joking)

it's better to give smaller doses more often, but you gotta feed them nitro regularly so they get real big. :mrgreen:

I've got some seedlings that are about three weeks old, and I've begun giving them dilute fish emulsion. Let me just say this, THAT SHIT STINKS. If you think it's a good idea to foliar feed with it, don't. Mkay? It'll clog up your sprayer. :rolleyes:

I like that you manage the amount of nitrogen your plants get based on their veg/flower cycle instead of using a bunch of additives. NPK management is the way to go. Great grow btw.
