Ser godt ud. Satme gang i additiver der :) hvor har du købt den vent du har. Jeg kan kun finde den nye model af dem og den er lidt dyr. Spændt på se din Copenhagen kush :) .

so it finally came, my biggest plant that i fed 3-4 times more than the others and had a ec of 4.7 last runoff has started some defiencys, i think its a mix of zink/boron + something more

growth seems a bit stunted, all the new growth looks too thin and small, and 3-4 leafs got what looks like burn'd tips, also 80 % of the leafs tips is hooking down, i know it aint my ph cause its been steady at 6.5

to start with the ec was 3.7, i flushed it with 6-7 gallons of plain ec 1.0 ph 6.5 water, i got the ec down to 1.8, then i mixed 2 ml root juice / 1.5 ml top max / 3 ml bio heaven / 3 ml bio grow / 2 ml bio bloom at an ec of 2.0, added that after flushing and runoff came out at 1.8 again

the yellow tips has been like that for 2 days, so its not something that is spreading fast, it came over night and has stayed the same since

many of the leafs on my other plants is making that same hook now, guess i have to flush em all tomorrow

do anyone have an idea what it could be?

I will see what I can find out lulzz! Has it got any better? It doesn't look that bad. I think you did the right thing by flushing out the soil with PHed water. I would then add half nutrient strength and see how your plant reacts. Your in flower this is a bad time to start having big problems.

hey mate, tak :)

har købt den i growshoppen chillo.dk, de har butik inde ved strøget

125mm + kulfilter + rør for 950 eller sådan noget

copenhagen er den lille fis som står i koppen stadig, 5 cm høj efter snart 50 dage, nu er den sat under 24 timer lys igen, den er desværre ikke så spændene :/

i don't know how the leafs hooking is going, its nigh time until 18:30

the few leafs that has the "burnings" is staying the same, its not
getting worse, and if its what i think it is, zink/boron it wont heal, just continue to grow normal

if the other plants still got hooks i will flush them, if it got better ill try just giving some clean water

hopefully it wont affect my harvest too much, the silver still got 7-10 weeks left so she got time to catch up

still looks a bit shitty, i found a few more yellow tips on my big silver i just flushed, 2-3 more leafs with 2-4 mm yellow tips, all new growth seems way too thin and small, few of the small leafs got twisted tips, most of the big fan leaves are very dark green and still got the hooks, i assume this is nitrogen toxicity, and the yellow tips and retarded growth/stunted growth from salt build ups leading to lockouts of allot of things

all the other plants stopped the hooking and have good looking leafs except the new growth, also looks too thin and small and stunted, but no burn'd tips here

i didn't have time to flush the others today so that will be tomorrow

im starting to think the 1.0 ec tap water maybe is playing a role in this, guess i have to buy a filter and then add everything myself to have full control

the pic uploader is totally fucking with me atm, will upload more pics later

Hooking of the leaves and brown burnt tips is nitrogen toxicity. Atleast according to the thread I have seen on here.

Also don't be worried about using the Bio Stimulants and boosters as foliar spray, they didn't harm the plant at all. In fact I have been spraying 3-5 times per day and my leaves are looking alot better. Not sure if its because I am increase the RH or they are getting micronutrients they need. But the leaves are looking better. I am going to go 12/12 on the 16th.

flushed the 2 mother plants that was dry, from ec 3.0 to ec 1.3, the ph was spot on 6.5 here too

i guess its not a good idea to flush my other plants now, they are still wet from the little water i gave them yesterday, was afraid to dry them more out when the salt levels is so high

they still looks fine except the new growth, so i guess i just prune some toxic leafs now and wait with the flusing till they are a bit dry and got some air first

my big silver is thirsty again after the flush, this time im giving it, 1.5 ml root juice / 2 ml algamic / 3 ml bio heaven / 3 ml bio bloom / 1.5 ml top max, with a ec of 1.5

took a look on the roots, and they look pretty nice

looks real nice bro. I watered mine this evening with 3.0 EC, Probably too high but oh well. My plant after 34 days of 18/6 finally showed sex. Male. Getting chopped. Thought about chopping it up and trying to clone it just for the practice and experience.

finally done flushing them all, fucking stupid i had to do it with 1.5 L bottles had nothing better

all of them between ec 1.5 and 1.9, ph 6.5

i hope this fix the problems, i still dont know what the 1.0 ec tap water contains

im seeing some more pistils, but nothing is really growing atm, is this normal for this time of flowering or are they stunted?

Your plants are looking great! I guess they could be stunted. A flush during flower could have shocked them a little bit. That EC seems kinda low for flower, But I know you had a buildup in your soil. My plant turned out to be male, it showed its balls after 34 days of veg. I chopped it and took a couple clones I want to see how easy it is to clone.

doesn't look at great as it use too, lot of fan leafs shows retarded growth and dead ends, and the new top growth still seems thin and retarded

they were stunted before the flush

just giving them a break from nutes now, next watering i start with 50 %

my clones are day 5 now think, cant see anything yet. but when i pull very gently they hold back, so there must be some roots holding on down there, will be a Mather of hours/days before i see them coming out

things are getting back on track now

buds is growing, the retarded leafs are now growing and turning more normal, no more discoloring or N toxicity

and trichs is starting to form

picked up a bag of light mix and some 1 gal pots for my hopefully soon rooted clones, then i took a few more babies and did some lollipopping

Looking good! I chopped my male and for some cloning experience I took 3 clones. After 3 days in the oxycloner they are already growing roots. I guess cloning really is not that hard after all.

i decided to ditch one, took a look at the roots and it had 0.5 cm roots after 5 days, from what i can tell im getting 100 % succes, and my mother closet is pretty cold, 18-22 c is my guess, will be getting a heat mat soon

my copenhagen kush has doubled in size over the past week, but rofl, its 55 days old, 7 cm and forming 8th node, it didn't even fill out that little cup with roots yet

things are still looking great in the tent, lots of resin production and they are looking happy

i stop using fish mix, and im gonna give them 1-2 ml grow and then around 75 % bloom 75 % heaven, 100 % algamic and topmax in the future, this only makes ec's around 1.5-2, i think that mixing fish + grow + bloom in decent amounts is what caused my ec problems

btw, have anyone grown Critical from royalqueenseeds before? the buds is starting to stink 100 % like cat piss, i hope it wont keep smell or taste like that :D

I am glad your problems are gone with your plants. A nice flush with PH adjusted water solves so many problems.

Your plants look great and 100% Success rate on clones is great. Mine were cloned sunday night so its been 72 hours since I cloned and tomorrow I will post a picture of the root growth. Its not bad.

I will keep the clones going another 5 days just to see how fast the roots grow then I will toss them and start some new seeds. I was thinking to start white widow. But I don't know.

8 days now and i see roots breaking the surface on 5 of 6 clones, the last one will be there within hours :woohoo:

will upload some pics tomorrow

the tent is looking good too, buds are getting beautiful

im talking with my mate about buying an 2x2x2m tent for next flowering, its way too crowded in there atm

Looking good brother!

After trashing my male Azucar I am taking a break. Planning out my next grow. I think I will wait until FEB-MAR and start my 2 feminized white widow plants and get about 20-30 clones and put them outside in April-May. What do you think of that? You think White Widow will do ok this far north?

no idea how they will do outdoor at your place

but, why not start the seeds now, then take some clones and make the best of them your mother plant, then you have more time to pick a strong mom, + you have a indoor setup going
