Its hard to give a definitive answer ,, some strains react differently ,, in my case , it was about 10 days before they stabilised . This grow may just turn into a lesson learnt with this strain .

How big is your root system ? Do you have any pics of that ? In an ebb and flow ,, you should have a big root system ,, doesnt matter if the rockwool cubes are dry ,, the root system should take care of the plant .

mongyman. i flush 10 litres per pot and no havent measured the run off but i was thinking i should do that next time

hey closet grower.. thanks for taking the time

 

 

yea the strain is more than proven it is quite hardy.. is being used in some pro's set ups... and have checked they dont get this problem.. no doubt something i have done i am worried they have become root bound it is quite a entangled mess down there they have filled the bottom of the pots.. hence why tonight im going to transplant 2 girls into bigger pots

We need pics of the pots and root system dude .

Here is a pic of my last grow early on when I had a problem ,, and it was to much nutes ,

As you can see ,, the leaves are dying and becoming crunchy . It isnt as bad as yours in this pic ,, but it did get worse and the only thing that fixed it was too halve the nutes .

Get some pics of the roots and pots mate ,, as they shouldnt get root bound in a ebb and flow/flood and drain system . Are you using net pots or normal ones ?

i did think it might have been nute burn so i backed off the nutes 6 days ago.. in your pic they seem to go from healthy to dry as mine have a gradual process over 4 days off yellowing then drying up from the tip.. the yellowing is uniform and doesnt start at the leave tip as i have been led to believe nute burn does

Root-bound and over watered IMO mohana from that last pic. At 5 weeks flower they are pretty much fucked I recon. If it was me I'd pull the lot and start fresh.

 

Peace MongyMan

mongy man yea i was afraid that was the case.. i have more space so im going to finish it as long as i can take it... those pots are for my sog but just thought mucking around with a screen might be fun.. how wrong i was

[MongyMan]

I'd chop it now and get what you can from them..they are only going to get worse. The longer you leave them the less salvageable buds you will get. Some look nice still atm.

 

 

Peace MongyMan
