Hey all,
My friend Elvis sent me some pics of his 3rd grow.
Its looking pretty good, but he is concerned with some yellowing of the leaves.
Let me tell you a bit about his story:
He got a cutting from a friend for his birthday, already planted and starting to root.
As he didnt have a lighting system at the time, he wired himself up a two 11W energy saving light bulbs and had them on 24/7. Although they were Red Spectrum lights, he had neither the time nor money to seek out anything else.
This continued for about 3 weeks untill he had enough cash to buy himself a 125W Blue Spectrum Compact Florescent.
He also bought himself a big bag of Nutrient laced All-purpose Compost and re-potted his girl and has been happily continuing his third time grow for another 3 or 4 weeks.
The problem started only a few days ago,
He noticed some yellow patches forming on the tips of the leaves. Which has continued to developed more and more and on other leaves too.
From countless searching, he has come to the conclusion that its some form of Nutrient Deficiency. But this confused him, as the compost states that it has enough Nutrients to last for 7-8 weeks.
Sooooo, i thought i would ask around on here as ive read many grow journals, info, questions.
He is still quite strapped for cash, and cannot buy high priced nute boosters.
Is there anything he can do that wont cost him a packet?
Ive added a few pics of his girl, so you can have a look for yourselves.
Any info would be greatly received,
Thanks guys
