NEED HELP ASAP FLOWERING NIGHTMARE

[dnotrem]

hey guys just curious to see if this looked ok to you 1 week into flowering temps are normal just gave them there first batch of flowering nutes I know its normal for the leaves to wither but better to be safe then sorry just wanted a second opinion from some of my esteemed colleagues take a look tell me if everything looks on the up and up Thanks

 

[silver hawaiian]

Can you post a photo? I'm not sure which of the photos in your album you're referring to..

 

[dnotrem]

LOL SORRY THE PICTURES DIDNT GET UPLOADED

 

[Jellyfish]

I don't think you're supposed to add bloom additives until a couple weeks into flowering.

 

[cronicle]

it looks as if they are getting to much food right now, I would just feed water or simply b1 for a couple days for now

 

[cronicle]

the bottom middle shows the curled leaves,indicating a toxic feeding, wait to the pot is fully dry to water also

 

[Noobian]

Yeah man go easy on the nutes at first, looks like you burned em a little bit based on the pics. Give them water only for the next two waterings then go 1/2 strength nutes after that and they should perk back up. Also very important is to make sure you are properly pHing your water when you feed. If you feed at too low or too high a pH you WILL have problems.

Questions for ya

1. What is the PH of your runoff?
2. What are you PH'ing your feedings to?
3. What are you feeding, how much and how often?

kk thanks

That no 3 Q is important also what medium are they in...

 

[Yes4Prop215]

def looks like overfert or ph imbalance...you need to post more info when you ask questions...medium/nutes and nute strengh, ph of your water, frequency of watering....etc

Yes yes, get that pH between 6.3-6.8, yellow hue will leave. Caused some kinda def from over feeding it sounds like. 1 week into 12/12 is absolutely fine to start bloom nutes, make sure they got a healthy dose of N before tho, gunna eat alot of it during stretch. Hard to tell, but there are brown spots on your leaves.. Cal/Mag def? I'll let someone else chime in on that one (DB) .. One more thing, the way the big fans droop reminds me of over-watering. Like someone else said, get ur pH in check, 2 straight waterings, then feed 1/2 strength. If they bounce back on that regiment, I'd do more straight water, then try feeding @ 3/4 strength.. Build slow

Good luck!

My at-a-glance quick diagnosis too.

 

[wilbur]

ditto! looks like there's a need to sort out exactly what yr doing with yr nutes!

 

[Yes4Prop215]

ive always been confused about that.....when problems arise everyone says flush but then you risk over-watering? whats the compromise here....let the pot dry out and give the plant two more days to fall into ph inbalance, or flush flush flush to regulate everything but risk over-watering and root rot?

 

[dnotrem]

Thanks guys for the feed back thats what I figured it was to much on the nutes will cut back for a few with just water thanks guys again

 

[silver hawaiian]

Looks like you may want to slow down on the watering too. That's what I'd attribute the leaf-droop to..

 

[Paully_B]

over watering....give it a good wet/dry cycle. marijuana craves thier thirst to be quench...because of over-watering you might also have ph imbalane. water without nute next time, ph the water to 6.7 or so and reset that soil. maybe some cal/mag top dressing to buffer more

Here's the scoop...

Here's the scoop...

That plant is actually mine. I asked my friend dnotrem to post them for me because my Internet is down. Here's what I'm doing. I'm using General Hydroponics flora nova bloom. And I used General Hydroponics flora nova grow for veg and the first week of flower like I was told to. It says to give most plants during later growth 2 teaspoons per gallon and that's what I did. I guess it means later flower growth I thought it just meant later growth in general. It's confusing. I'm gonna flush them with water the next two feedings then go to one tablespoon per gallon. Do you guys think that'll be good enough? The medium is soil. I like hydro, but I was growing from seed and needed moms so I picked the best female as a mom and flowered the other two. The other one of the two flowering is doing great with that amount of nutes. Should I feed them separately then? Thanks everyone for the quick responses. I'll keep you all posted in the outcome.

kk thanks

Answers:

PH of my runoff? I'll check today when my ladies wake up.
PH'ing my feedings? 6.5
What am I feeding? Flora Nova bloom, only feeding when the plants are totally dry. I give nutes every feeding up until now and they've loved it. It seems to just be something with the flowering nutes?

hey brother, i personally do not like feeding nutes (organic or chem) at every watering. your salts build up in the medium overtime, you may possibly be experiencing some of this already. from my experiences it's rarely one problem at a time, one thing starts to swing outa imbalance and it kinda throws everything else off a little. knowing that its been all nutes and no fresh water up until now I would address the situation a lil different. FLUSH first, that way if any salts are built up you can wash them outa there. give them a good dry after the flush, one more straight watering, good dry out, then feed 1/2 strength, straight water, feed 3/4 strength, straight water, feed full strength (if they are responding well). your pH sounds like its in check, if its been constant at 6.5 your run off shouldn't be terribly different i dont think, but check it anyways to see exactly what the soil is doing down tharr.
