I used to have ugly leaf syndrome until I began pumping epsom salts into my feeding regime...those issues are behind me...

How much epsom salt per gal and how often boo

 

[boo]

a little humble pie I see...I've eaten my share of that stuff, ice cold too...
I scoop it up in the palm of my hand subbie, mebbe 2 tbs. per 5 gallon pail...usually every other feeding...never had such green leaves...
remember when I thought I tobacco mosiac virus, turned out to be a lack of cal mag and epsom salts...I figured my well water was so rich with minerals I didn't need it, boy was I mistaken...flower room is on auto pilot for the next 10 weeks or so, veg is light work now that all the wiener dogs have been corraled...

I’ll put it on my list and try it in a tent. you use it in veg and flower?

I use it on both, correct. It really does make a noticeable difference. I get a 10 pound sack of it free from my health insurance company. I get $60 worth of free stuff every quarter so I always have them send me a bag of Epsom salt for my grow. When I was wrapping up Ivan’s tail every other day with bandages, I was using the free stuff I get for healthcare on his tail. There’s a lot of downsides to getting old, but there are some perks.

I haven't had a cig in 7 days as of today tho (I'm kinda proud of that),so I'm hoping the nose will eventually be able to do its job again.

Good Luck Its Tough but worth it

I got to thinking about the attachments that venom put back in here, and now I'm wondering if I am mistaken, and I could have a (maybe)phosphorus and calcium deficiency rather than potassium??

Hope it helped

So this plant has hermied twice on me within 2 weeks. I caught it both times before it was too late. What's weird to me is that it only happened on the one bud and in the exact same spot on that bud both times.

Nowhere else on the whole thing either time.

Yes. It is powerful.

That's crazy. I wonder why it's happening in the same spot

Those buds are looking sick nice work my friend

Light leak maybe?

 

[VEN0M]

Which ones should we start with cherry punch on he left or cherry trop on the right.

I don't know how to describe the smell. It's not fruity or sweet smelling. It's not earthy either. Maybe skunky with a burnt something smell.

When in doubt, go 50/50

Not likely man. I got that room blacked out.

My man good Idea

I got it figured out... In a way. If a person made good soil, used probiotics (EM-1 on bottom and gokashi on top) and top-dressed at stages, it would be perfect, but... I don't


My way, if you will...

I start by filling my planter with (insert your choice of brand) soil. Mine is an 18 qt planter. Fill your res up to the fill line which needs to be a minimum of 1" below the bottom of the planter. Mine is 1.5". The soil will soak that up pretty quick. Fill it again then plant your seed/rooted clone. Then cover the soil. I use a black garbage bag.

Keep the res full. This part is up to you as far as how full to keep it. I let mine get a gallon low, then refill.

This is the tricky part, but once you see the signs, it gets less tricky. For me, it's when the purpleish/dark color in the space between the leaf's veins and the wrinkle start. At the latest when the brown spots just beging to show. It seems to be at 3 weeks in my setup on average. That's when the water roots hit the res. I still haven't figured out why the deficiency starts there, but I'm not that smart

In top watering soil, it takes a minute to correct, but this (like hydro) gets corrected almost immediately since this is when I start using the nutrients. Like I said at the beginning, I've been using the Advanced Nutrients 3 part pH perfect line. I keep it at half strength (8ml/g). You feed every time you fill the res. Mine is two gallons, and this plant drinks 1 gallon every day. There is zero need for a chiller and zero need for an air stone and zero need to change the res or flush the soil.

That Green Crack grow went south because I had my fill line errantly marked at the bottom of the planter (doh). Since I have moved it to 1.5", my plants have been happy happy happy (1.5" because it leaves .5" of room for error)

Here she is yesterday. I can't get a good angle to show it, but this lil girl has filled the 32" x32" screen and then some. Biggest and healthiest plant I have grown in the 6 years I've been practicing
