Hey guys... I'm actually having some trouble with these plants but overall I think they are looking very nice.

Getting ready to update my blog and journal. But wanted to dump some pics here for comments. This is week 5 day 2 of flower on Blueberry clones(specific breed unknown).

Thanks!

Looks good!

What trouble do you think youre having?

Edit: Went back and took another looksie, they dont seem to be having any issues, leaves are uniformly nice and green.

Dont forget to flush at the end, I personally do a 2 week flush but I also use all chemical salt nutes.

Double edit: I see you Denver, shakin that ass ;)

Haha. Thanks guys.

The main issue I'm having right now is under the canopy. Things are looking ugly down there. lol.

I'm like 90% sure its mostly just from lack of light because the canopy is so tight. Bot lots of dead/dieing leaves down there, some of which I cant really get to without fucking shit up. And many of the lower branches look light green and unhealthy, I'm about to feed so I'll post what pics I can but hard to tell under HPS.

Also, "Bertha", as I call her, is huge and has turned a much lighter color from the rest. Its really hard to tell cuz everything so so crammed but she takes up prob 1/3 or more of the canopy. And her actual soil PH is pretty low based on run off. Nothing really to be done about that and feed/watering to 10-20% runoff seems to be keeping things in check. Thinking about raising her solutions to like 6.5.

On the subject of PH. I'm running 4 differnt mediums actually and think I've been PH'n too low for all of them, and some input would be great... 2 are in PMBX, 2 in AM4, Bertha is in st8up FFOF, and forget the 6th one, its in cement.

I've been PH'n the solution to 5.9-6.1, based on the GHFS soil/soilless chart saying between 5.5-6.5. Everything looks pretty awesome so I think this has been good. But I recently read 2 seprate things that said 6.3-6.8 for soil or non coco based mediums.

Oh and on the subject of weed photos, lol... here is some SFVOGK I was puffin on the other night, I love this strain, lol...





Cool garden pics from 12/2...

That closet looks insane man and to the OP jesus those plants look fire for a first grow.

I never understood why I don't do more than 2 plants at a time when I have so many lights and my closet can support up to 8.

Yea, I think I vegged too long and/or put too many in that space, its about 4'x3'. I vegged for like 5 weeks cuz at week 3 one of them got all pale yellow and I waited for it to come back to start flowering. By that time, "Bertha" was fucking huge. lol.

I'm gonna try for the basement next grow. That's where this grow was supposed to take place but there was flooding and mold.

Sounds good man post a journal of that, I wouldn't mind seeing a good grow again.

One thing I gotta ask was how was the mid/bottom buds on those plants? In a tight space I doubt they are getting any light but your leaves are healthy green so looks like they are being treated well.

Hey,

Just below all the big ones is some pretty decent looking stuff, but anymore than a few inch below that stuff starts to get ugly, lol.

I posted this thread about the bottoms shortly after replying to this one earlier... https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/758542-mid-late-flower-pruning-opinions.html

Hey dude. I honestly don't know, on either of your questions, lol.

The leaves on most of them are very dark green, even purple if the light catches it right. I have one plant, bertha, that is turing a more pale green but the color still looks heathly to me.

I estamate I have another 3-4 weeks before harvest so I don't think they should be turning that much yet.

As for nutes:

I've been following the GHFS drain to waste chart for soil/soiless. I was showing nute def in weeks 2-3 of veg, especially on one plant that was stunted from it, then followed by my plant that is in FFOF when the "stock" nutes got used up.

I started off with a very "light hand" but they just kept loving more nutes and I ended up ramping up all my girls on micro-nutes a lot, and across the board on the others. I basically took the chart + the recommendations on the bottles to determine my "ratios" of each and limits to stay within. I slowly brought them up till they started showing slight tip burn, figured out where I was with all my ml/gal's, then sort of applied that to the rest of the weeks.

PS> I posted this the other day... I'm currently feeding them week 9 on this: https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/756573-evolution-first-timers-nute-schedule.html
