Puck's fucked up freebie grow

Thanks guy's, the cow shit was a couple of those packaged jobs at a garden center. I guess I
have 2 choices... One is limestone them for the 3rd time and hope that fixes the problem over the next
couple weeks or just give straight water cause the cow poop has locked the nutes out. Which do you
think I should do? I'll get more detailed pics this week to show how bad the Strawberry Blue is. The
Afghani is good and green tho. Maybe not so sensitive to differences in ph or nutes? I think next year
it's back to the easy peasy lemon squeezie Bubba Kush for me!
Did you top dress it or blend in and now it's kicking in.some strains can take alot and some don't,not to worry.always remember don't change anything half way thru.stick to what has worked for you.I just top dress with guano and use seaweed juice.check ph and see what it needs.some of that prebag stuff is really strong and should be used real early in spring to cook some before the plants get it

Mixed it at the start of the grow. Been in there the whole time!

Couple quick pics to show damage. Looks like things are settling down. As I said before I was
using a bottle that had pure cedar oil in it to water with. I stopped using it last week and it looks
like that was the problem. Cedar is an evergreen and loves acidic soil so I guess the oil from it
would fuck up my ph. Hopefully all the nutes that haven't been available don't all dump in at once!
I will be visiting frequently to make sure things continue to stabilize. Thank you all for your input!

Good times bad times at the spot this A.M.!
1) The fuckin' Strawberry Blue was a fuckin' male! I marked it from the start but
it was a freebie so what the fuck can you do.... I tore it out and chucked it deep
in the woods.
2) The NL/BB is flowering!!!!! pic below although it's hard to see. I don't see any
other signs of sex but I hope you all can take a look and let me know if you see
anything. (Pic at the bottom right.)
3) When I walked out of the woods into the parking lot adjacent to my spot apparently
a guy had his tire slashed and he was parked. There was a cop taking his info down
and they were about 100 yards from me. There is NEVER anyone in the parking lot
in the morning. I usually drop my water off in the dark and walk in there next morning
to water. So I immediately drop my water bottles in the bushes and look down like I'm
looking for something. Luckily he wasn't looking my way and I casually stroll to my vehicle,
get in and calmly pull out of the parking lot. The cop glances at me and then continues
to write in his little notebook. I have a well rehearsed story if I ever get questioned
and I have a few police friends so I'm not nervous around them but that was the closest
I've come to getting busted. :twisted:

Yes, as soon as I realized he didn't see me with the bottles I thought I would be ok. As
I said I have a well rehearsed story. If you do this long enough pretty much every scenario
has played out in your head....

Damn the strawberry blue huh ? Mine was a freebie to.

I labeled it in the zip lock bag to germ, marked my cup before putting it in there (I've planted before
and forgot which cup had what) and it's easy to keep track of them at the spot. I haven't seen many
pic's of yours in the show and tell section Ruby. You already harvest?

Going into salvage mode, nothing is growing anymore. Just getting a good rain and
will continue to water heavily. Need to wash out everything and not feed for a while.
Think things are locked out. Closeup is NL/BB other's are the Afghani etc...
i could be wrong puck but the last pic looks like over watering to me. maybe let them dry out a little?

Well I water every 3-4 days and the surface is hydrophobic by then. Maybe I'll check
that next time I'm out there. It's old soil (3yrs) so it probably doesn't hold water very
well. I really appreciate the input though. I will check it and report the results!

Puck ,if you can bring small shovel and dig in the ground there and transplant.or bring some pro mix out and put in New pots.shake of any dirt you can without damaging roots.I have burned many plants with soil to hot or too strong and transplanted to straight pro mix and they sprung back.good luck

Thanks Marco, I think I will be doing that soon but see post below.

As ar as the overwatering concerns go I waited 5 day's after we got a really good rainstorm
Tuesday to go water. It rained all day and we got just over an inch in my area. The plants
looked better but still haven't grown/continued to flower yet. I tried to lift up the NL/BB and it
still felt heavy until I heard the distinct ripping sound of roots being torn asunder.... Fuck me...LOL
So I decided to water today and check on them again in 4 day's. I give them 1 gallon each
and their in 15 gallon pots. I do make sure to let the water soak in and not loose any over the
sides. This is how I've always done it, does that sound like too much water? It's been hot and
sunny for most of the Summer.
First pic is the NL/BB and the other 3 are Afghani. I'd give some close ups if there was anything
to see. Still kind of light colored other than the indica looking Afghani.

Puck,they are looking good.leaves pointing up means they are healthy and happy.it been and gonna be hot over here too.some have enough cover and shade on the pots where they are not too thirsty and others have been real thirsty lately.give them some bloom food.
