Flowering Week 5

[Riverinaboy]

Ok so I'll leave her indoors for darkness.

So u think it's too early to start the flowering stage?

What sort of light you are using. Never to early to flower outdoors mine started in early February outdoors.

Whilst in veg stage I'm using 600w growlush MH retro lamp.

I also have a 1000w led with reds in it, will use this one once I start flowering

Just use the led now. 12 hours on 12 off with a timer would be best.

What are you growing in. And the nutrients.

[pocket_rocket]

Propagation mix in 12L pot. Perlite, calimagic, great white + potash power. Just started to use potash power as I believe she is potassium deficient as I've noticed discolouring of leaves lately. Lower leaves are starting to turn yellow.

PH levels have ranged from 5.5 to 6.5.

Some say ph at around 5.8 is best, and others say 6.5

I've been starting to get yellow leaves like this (refer to photos), Mostly lower grown up leaves. I've since taken off these leaves, but noticing more are appearing on other lower grown up leaves.

I should state that I took approx 10-12 cuttings off her 1 week ago to clone. All cuttings were off the lower half of each stems.

Is it possible that she may be under stress due to cuttings & is still recovering causing the yellowing of leaves. I'm assuming it's potassium deficient hence I've added potash power.

 

I really want to start the flowering stage, but not before the yellowing of leaves stop. What are your thoughts???

The lower leaf will yellow and dropp off it is part of the plants cycle, once it has finished with them they will start to turn yellow and drop off...

I'd leave the yellowing leaves on the plant, I guess its sucking the life out of them and using it up. I find if you remove yellowing leaves then more above where they were go yellow (faster)
when you can just very gently tug or brush downwards and they fall off is when they can go IMO.

 

perhaps unless they are higher and blocking light to good growth.

Hi Harry. I thought as much. Not much of a smell to it either. Trichome production is very low and this may be this particular strain characteristics or I'm not feeding enough?

Try spraying them. I'm around the same as u time frame I flipped mine March 10th I believe . I use bio bud,floralicious,and tiger bloom for feeding and spraying. 10 drops of each in a spray bottle . But start a lil less so u know what they can handle. And never spray when lights out and leave em wet. Will burn them .
