I was using PBP, which is what I switched to last time when I had this problem with H&G, and got good results.

Now this time I started using PBP again but weather the nutes were bad or I was doing sompething wrong, which obviously isn't possible! :nono: lol
I was getting some bad yellowing, and I got a whole line up of H&G for free so I thought I'd try it out again. That was the reason for the switch.

I'd like to just go get some more PBP but I'm slightly straped for cash right now and the only other thing I have in my arsenal is GH. So who knows, If I don't get this H&G shit figured out I may make another switch. :spank: :bashhead:

I know pico doesn't even check/adjust ph... I don't know how that's possible since H&G stabilizes at around 3.5 but he does get good results. Caligreen only uses PH strips which aren't verry accurate but he also gets great results. I just don't know!

I'll check with greatfull but that's just about my last option as far as good resources on this subject.

I'll let you guys know what I decide in the next couple days.

peace

the yellowing hmmm maybe they had a craving for n at that point and just needed a boost of N to bring out the green again. oh yeah especially as they stretch they need extra N in beginning of flower some strains do any way. i use pbp and i find that any N hungry strains get light green or yellowing in end of veg and early flower. i juice with veg nutes for week 1 w/a budset helper like bigbloom 1 time, then week 2 50/50 with the veg/bloom. then let em have it on the bloom and about week 4 i slam with p with guano and budswell along with pbp for 2.5-3 weeks. lil additives here and there along the way(use my gut on that) and that stopped my preme yellowing.
maybe your prob.... i would have to watch it go down in real time. i hope you get it figured though. good luck and be with ya trying to figure this out also

Yea I must say those roots look even better than mine usually do!!!You have your girls on drip feed, what a few times a day for a short time each??? Once daily?? They look like they are loving the timed waterings, I have come to believe all plants would do better with timed waterings. Anyway glad to see your rockin, I'm off but I'll be back! Keep that shit up! PEACE

SUPERLARRY- thanks man

SIRSMOKALOT- Yea. I'm not exactly sure what it was. I've always gotten good results with PBP although I've never veged with it in coco before so who knows.

CALIGREEN- Thanks for stoppin in bro. I think hazy bassicaly covered your Q.

HAZY- :yes: what would I do without you! lol

Ok... Well... I did a flush with some ph'd ro water and imediately the ph problem went away so weather or not it was gonna cause ill effects I dont want to deal with it so I switched to gh and now whatever goes in is what comes out. just how it should be!


DAY 5 FLOWER about time for one last hair cut.







I'll try and get some better pics without the lights on in a couple days.

SIRSMOKALOT- Thanks man. stretch is deffinately over now.lol especially since it took me almoast two weeks to reply, and there startin to fill out and trich up. :yes:

MK6- yea these girls fatten up really quick. Weather it's the coco, the strain or both, it works out pretty good.

CALIGREEN- You know, I think It's my extra long veg. I've always had huge stalks no matter what strain and I don't think I've ever vegged for less than 3 weeks so that's probably the reason.

DIGITALHIPPY-Yea I really like these pots, although it doesn't matter for someone like me since I space em out so much but for someone like you who's doin SOG there absolutely perfect! Truthfully I have to give the credit for the even cannopy and the bushyness to the strain. All I did was trim undergrowth. :muahaha:

NZJAY- :wave: Thanks alot bro. I just wish I felt the same way as you. I'm kind of a perfectionist and these girls aren't completely up to my standards right now but I think they'll come through for me fairly well even so.


DAY 32 FLOWER

Well I always seem to be having some type of problem. I'm gettin some of that slime algae crap in my res that I had last grow. It doesn't seem to be having much of a effect but I'm gonna clean everything real well and run some H2O2 through the girls just to be sure. I think it feeds off O2 cause it always seems to start on the airstones so I think I'm just gonna remove em all together and see if that helps since their not really nessecary with this type of system.


I don't really like the way pics are coming out on this crop. It's not as clean of a cannopy as I'd like but the pics just make it look like a jumble. :nono: I think I might do a scrog next time or at least do some better training, I just don't like the idea of not being able to to remove plants for anything like trimming.Anyways here's the pics. I know it's with the light on and I really will try to get some with the lights off, I just keep forggeting. :bashhead:














I kinda ghetto rigged a temporary table for my veg room and threw a 400watt in there. I'm gonna work on having girls ready to throw into flower as soon as the current crop is done. I always seem to not even have clones ready by the time I harvest and it serriously hurts my over all yearly harvest. If I can get a crop off every 2 months I would be VERRY happy so that's what I'm workin on.
