Kuwl's Deja Vue All Over Again

I was thinking that way but thought it was cheating lol.
Hey early in the morning I can think better lol I rolled up the filter thing I had,
not the same as the RAW ones but it's what I have available.
I figured if I can put it in the auto roller thingy I have it would roll it.
It did!! almost perfect but kinda a pain to get the paper to start but once it
catches boom done. I'll have to get some of those RAW ones as they look
thinner and prob easier too.

Happy Belated B-Day Kuwl!!!🥳

I was into paper tips for a long time until I discovered glass tips. No more paper flavor on the inhale!
I find them on Amazon in a pack of 12 multi color tips for $10. Reusable over and over with a good cleaning in isopropyl.
I actually use a sonic jewelry cleaner to clean them but a simple iso soak in a shot glass then rinse in hot water cleans them up well too.
8mm x 35mm for a long tip and 8mm x 25mm for a shorter tip. Get 10mm diameter if you like to roll fatty bomber doobs

I also use a bamboo rolling mat sized for king size papers. Pretty much the same type of mat used to roll sushi but small.
Perfect roll every time with a good wrap around the tip so it don't fall out.

I hold the doob by the glass part up inside the paper and that helps keeps my fingers from stinking like a roach.🙃

Hey, I love it, I've also never seen them before, Guess who's placing an Amzon order?.....$15 up here but they show them for use on the outside of the roll. I thought you'd use them on the inside like the paper tips. This screen shot has the cardboard tips and the glass tips and honestly, they look a little fairy to me.....lol 1704985643504.png1704985530441.png

Went down the cave room and checked to see if they drinkin'
yep they drank an inch now and that's an improvement.
Still getting yellow leaves tho.
Might change the nute mix by wk5 Mon. till then I will wait and keep checking it.

QC B
Here is what I was talking about in the pic, you see the bright green tips, >not burnt.
Almost maybe Pre-Burn tips ??
Plus leaf color is turning purple a little bit.
Isn't that too much N?
I'll have to check a chart after another coffee.

Not quite, Mon. will be the 5wk.
EC is fine I bumped it up from about 425 to 625 PPM (1.2 ec), it should be at 750-950 early bloom (1.5-1.9 ec)
I believe that problem might have been caused by a higher ec before I changed the tanks, last week?, which was up there at about 2.0
I was looking at this link
Everything I read says eiher N deficiency also, cause of those thin leaves on QC B, a Zinc deficiency.
Still looking cause that link said nothing about purple stems, which I should know but forgot lol.
 
Want to say the purple is Phosphorus deficiency.
I usually get it I think.
Sometimes turning purple can be genetic.

Phosphorus deficiency results in stunted growth similar to nitrogen deficiency. Plants remain a very poor size.

Leaf color appears dull dark green, or bluish green, with a purplish color of the petiole (leave stem) and veins on younger leaves.

In fruit bearing plants, flowers are produced, but there are low fruit yields.

Where to look: Older leaves and grow tips

What to look for: Dull, dark green color and purple or reddish discoloration, brittle stems

Taken from; https://hydrobuilder.com/learn/diagnosing-nutrient-deficiencies/
 
Purple discoloration in cannabis leaves can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetic expression, cold temperatures, nutritional imbalances, pH imbalances, and environmental stressors 1. Some cannabis strains are genetically predisposed to develop purple leaves as part of their natural characteristics. If your cannabis strain is known for its purple foliage, then the discoloration is likely a natural and desirable feature 12.

If the purple discoloration is unexpected or abnormal, it may indicate underlying issues such as nutrient deficiencies or imbalances 1. Here are some key nutrients that, when lacking or improperly absorbed, may contribute to purple leaves:

  • Phosphorus Deficiency: Phosphorus is essential for various metabolic processes in cannabis plants, including energy transfer and nutrient uptake. A deficiency in phosphorus can cause leaves to turn purple. Ensure your plants receive adequate phosphorus through proper fertilization and pH-balanced soil.
  • Potassium Deficiency: Potassium is crucial for photosynthesis, water regulation, and overall plant health. Insufficient potassium can lead to purple leaves, particularly in older foliage. Use a balanced fertilizer that provides adequate potassium, and maintain proper pH levels to promote nutrient absorption.
  • Magnesium Deficiency: Magnesium plays a vital role in chlorophyll production and photosynthesis. A lack of magnesium can cause purple or reddish discoloration in cannabis leaves, typically starting from the leaf edges. Use magnesium-rich supplements or foliar sprays to correct deficiencies.

Since they starteed to drink again I took a chance and added 5ml FP to the tank of 3 gal nute mix which brought the PPM to 700.
Hoping the added N will stop the yellowing.
Not too worried about the Purple stems, I had them before a few times,
I think when they locked up, the deficiencies started and now I gotta play catch up.
I prob should have put them on a water only diet for a few days till everything got flushed out.

I have had purple stems before also and they were mostly on the upper part of plant i blamed them on to much light running 18/6. I was never a fan of giving just water that far in flower i would just cut back on nutes and lower light intensity till they bounced back but thats just me.
 
I never cut the N right out in flower just reduce the amount right to harvest.

I know knot and I'm the shit at diagnostics but a buddy expro grower said to me burnt tips can mean too much food and not enough light...or too much light and not enough food, when he saw them on my plant I though I'd over fed he said not necessarily. Before that I thought if you're not burning your tips your not trying hard enough......,,,

A little tip burn don't bother me to much usually to much food, if they curl tho that's the light for sure.
I lowered the intensity of the light to 65K Lux at the highest flower but most are at the 50-55 range now.
Light is at 14" now, I think before I reduced %, it was around 85-87k lux at the top most flowers and bout 70k at most.
That seemed to high but they didn't show any stress from it so we'll see if they improve at the lower level.
If they drink good tomorrow I'll add a bit more mag pro, maybe another 5ml to the tank mix.
If all goes right I'll start using the chart again Mon. but with moderation so as not to cause another lockout.

Thanks for the gift ideas. A few I know, me included, are looking for better joint devices. I used to have a old toke stone from the 80’s but tossed it about 15 years ago thinking I’d never need it again. 🤦
 
It seems I get a totally different problem every grow :LOL:
These QC B's are giving me fits.
Tank went down another inch+ so they are drinking and drinking more every day.
Tank is getting a low so I added another 2 gal. of nute mix, crossed fingers.
Very clear in the tank, no cloudy stuff at all.
IMG_5121.JPGIMG_5122.JPG
Went with the chart for week 4 instead of wk 5, only real dif is the amt of MP and no FP in wk 5.
I am hoping for no lockout and they prob need more FP n MP at least that's what the leaves say.

PPM 875 from 625 PH 5.8 (In the trays it's different tho)
PPM will catch up PH 6.3 is high but not to high idt
IMG_5127.JPG

QC White is doing amazing! Bigger flowers and they going all the way down.
LSD is doing ok and QC Blue is not.

PPM in the trays is pretty much the same as the tank PPM but
PH is almost always higher.
I ph'ed the clay balls but maybe that's the problem, if I didn't do it right.
Still PH in the trays are 6.3 so not to crazy out of range to do any damage I would think.
Water Temp in the Trays are 75-76 degrees. Room temp is 78+-1
I have a fan dedicated to blowing floor lvl air directly on the trays.
I am surprised the tray temp that high. I am lowering the room temp a little to see if that helps.

Ah, a thought, I could run a tube (shop vac hose) from the intake pipe (that draws air from outside)
to ground lvl, which would bring cooler air down to tray lvl.

Some pic's
He usually don't go in there lol

I like these better after all they are cheaper $8.99 and I think a good size.

Week 6 in Flower
A lot of minor changes
Lots of stuff on timers to try to control temp and humi.
Added a extra steamer cause I could not get it above 30% now at around 40%.
A larger fan pointed at the bases to keep the water in the lower system cool, seems to work,
Also ran some 4" duct from the wall fresh air intake to that fan, to blow cooler air at the pots.
I also added a smaller fan near the heater to turn on when the 2 larger fans turn off at night.
Temps at night, when lights are off are a bit low to me at 62 degrees.
Hoping the small fan will circulate the warm air around the plants at night.
One steamer turns off at night also, that keeps the humi at 30% at night.
Added Zyme to the mix cause I feel the root system is not 100% and needs a kick in the butt.
So far no problems with the Zyme in the mix, water still clear. PPM 1200, It's been higher so not to high.
Leaving in this mix till week 7, then I'll change the tank and put in the new mix for week 7-8.
I think they are at least a week behind.
The leaf problems seem to be better now that I've added more MP + Zyme.
They still drinking at 1-2 inches a day.
Raised the light to 18" which gives them a 65k-75k lux lvl @ 100%.
The side lights have been moved to a angle, cause I seen nothing happening at lower flowers of plants
I also made a mix of fish shit, kelp shit and asmonite and Epson Salts and Recharge and a bunch of stuff.
I used a baster to suck it up and stuck it down the side of the AP and squirted it in half way down the pot.
I did this to all 4 sides and when I seen the plant still alive the next day I did it to the others too.
Been 3 or 4 days now and it didn't hurt em and might have helped :)
I probably forgot some things I did so will add to this if I can remember.

Swinging all over the place and I have no clue.
Tried everything and a new problem arises after I think I got one solved.
This time it seems to be an iron problem, prob from another lock out.
These nutrients, I use, have been good but since another co. brought them out, I'm not confident in them.
I might run them one more time but am def switching to another nutrient (Athena Pro Line maybe).
They seem stronger than before or my 3 plant strains are weaker.
8 wks this Mon and they look like 6 to me.
Lock out causes stunted growth and buds/colas, I read some where,
Mine keep locking out so I reduced the nutrient mix by half (400 PPM)
PH is about 5.8-6.2 range. In and rez tank and in the trays pretty
much the same, same with PPM in the tank/trays.
Other than taking the pots out and soaking them in plain water,
then emptying the tank and run it with plain PH water IDK.
I've change tanks with clean nutes several times during this grow with no tank or cloudy nute problems.

Or leave them be for awhile and maybe things will straighten out.
PPM @ 400, RH 40%, Fans always on, exhause set at a low 2, Lux 65k-75k, Light at 100% at 12"
I turned off the 2 TS1000 140w lights. I got some burn on the one QC B tops in the back but might be a nute burn too.
I noticed a reduction in purple stems, so that's good! :LOL:

IMG_5155.JPG
Funny how the QC B right-front looks better now and the QC W, which did well through out this grow is not so good now.
LSD back-right doing badly and the QC B left-back is doing badly.

My nutes got discontinued, for a more expensive version.

So I grabbed the last I could find on sale and now I’m learning KNF using @stonemason recipes. So far it’s pretty easy but it takes time to ferment. Teas and foliar sprays are fast but compost took a month.

I expect to be ready for spring with enough to see me through the year. Longer for the sprays.

Just an idea as BB has the knowledge and guides. L8r

I know theyre bottom fed but the soil looks super dry man.
Any chance its just the plants not drinking properly, or the pots not watering correctly?
 
I know theyre bottom fed but the soil looks super dry man.
Any chance its just the plants not drinking properly, or the pots not watering correctly?
I noticed that yesterday and attached a small air hose to a syringe to see the ph of the water in the bottom of the soil.
I pulled back on the syringe and nothing but air. No gurgle, so it is dry all the way down.
It was dry as far down as I could go and it went down all the way to the bottom.
So I made a lig;ht mix of Bloom and FP cause they both had .1% iron in them PH 5.8 / PPM 400
and used a baster to flush some of the nute mix down the sides to moisten up the soil.

That said I did check the valves previously (a day or two before) and cleaned and cleaned them.
Also made sure the hose was on the nipple of the valve before I tightened it on.
The water in the reservoir looks lower than it should to me.
I might have to pull them apart again but for now I'll pour a cup of tank rez into each one to see it it helps.
Also I have 2 root controls on each pot, a sock on the outside and a square on the inside,
maybe too much interfering with the water intake?
 
Man i really dont know, i know nothing about auto pots either or how they actually work.
Something cant be right if they're completely dry from top to bottom tho.
Take 1 off its base and hand water/feed it til finish? See what that does? Idk man im just shooting in the dark here

The water in the trays were only about an inch high,
high enough to tap the floats to make them bob and thought they were fine but
I put a 2 solo cups of rez tank nutes into each tray anyway,
The first one went in and went down enough to put a 2nd cup of rez in, which filled up the trays
after it went down on the 1st one but the covers still went on ok.
Then I put a solo cup of rez tank nutes onto the sides of each pot.
Should see some results tomorrow.
I'm gonna have to pull out the valve system and give it a go over again but
I did stick a paper clip end into the hole on the grey part of the valve after you lift the black float thingy.
I pushed the paper clip down to make sure the inside valve was working and they all were, holes were clear and none were stuck.
I'm gonna take the outside socks off, maybe tonight after I check the trays again
to see if the extra rez water got absorbed and if I have to add more.

Took the extra socks off and checked the trays and they were still full, same as I left them so no more absorbtion from the pots.
PPM in the trays was 550 PH was 5.8
So now waiting a couple of days to see what happens.
 
@Star Dog
You're running auto pots, not sure if its something new to you or not.

But Kuwl here has had one hell of a time with his auto pots lately, i was curious if you had any input?
 
Checking them today they don't look any worse so there's that lol
I seen they drank up the extra nutes in the trays, so that's good.
I stuck a paper clip wire into the grey valve hole to see if they were feeding/working properly
and they were. Then sticking a tube down the side of the pot to see if there is moisture down there
and there was. Right now I see everything working as it should.
I'm just going to sit on it for a few more days to see if they snap out of it.
Mon will be week 8 and I suspect i will be going to week 10 atm.
Well they're on their own for the next couple of days as I have to help move my daughter.

Next grow will be one strain for 4 pots and another strain for the other 4 pots and maybe dif nutes too.

Hey, I hear you man its one thing after another sometimes, I can't diagnose nutrient issues and I'm not taking any readings on anything this grow. Other than keeping them fed I've just let mine go, all was good until about a week ago I saw a seed popping through the top of a front bud....WTF.....my whole crop is ....seeded.....I shake when I say that....I'm having a hard time concentrating......
Today I see another seed on top of another......I was hoping it wasn't all but alas I'll be chucking seeds again.......no fault of the pots, it looks like a Trainwreck started the mess cause they are full....60 days I gotta pull them all.........I guess I 'll be making a lot of oil...

Other than keeping them fed I've just let mine go, all was good until about a week ago I saw a seed popping through the top of a front bud....WTF.....my whole crop is ....seeded.....I shake when I say that....I'm having a hard time concentrating......

Been there done that bro
Yep I’m gonna try my nutes one more time but at half strength after going to flower.
That seems to be where all the trouble starts for me. It’s around 4 to 6 weeks into flower when the plants leaves start showing problems.
Also, I’m giving up on Clay balls I’ll put some Coco choir down there if anything.
Also, I’m going with one strain for the four pots and one strain for the other four.

I think I got the lighting down pretty good and everything else.
Dyna Pro products change to super thrive and this is the first time I’ve used them since the change.
They seem to be stronger, or my strains are weaker, not sure.
anyway, it’s definitely a nutrient problem.

Cleaning a lil baggys in the 70's was not much trouble
but this amt is a pain in the butt, but worth it.

Hell I'm still cleaning seeds from the last grow hahaha
Still good smoke tho and gets me high where I want to be :LOL:
I got a small colander and filters the weed out and keeps the seeds in,
it's just the right hole size for stopping the seeds and stems.
Different than a regular size colander, smaller holes.
No brand name on it and think I got it at goodwill.

That's a good idea, I'll look at the V.V store next week and get my 30% seniors discount....probably save me 30 - 40 cents....lol....smoking the very last of my Gsc, the Qcblue is gone all I've left is some Sour D to get me through another week or 2 before this crop is dried up enough to start chipping at it.....My next crop of 6 is coming along now that they are in 1 gal pots and I've fertilized them they're starting to fill in ....onward and sideways....lol

bring a few seeds to see if the holes are small enough.
i think my colander is for rinsing rice as the holes are smaller than a normal colander.
