    Looks like it’s lacking a bit of magnesium. About 1-2 tsp of Epsom salt per gallon of water will help.

    Your water is ok to use. It’s pretty soft so you’ll probably need to supplement calcium and magnesium. The sodium is a bit high, but not too high to be an issue.

    Your plant is not needing any supplemental calcium or magnesium. This damage to the lower leaves is not even a nitrogen issue. That splotching is caused by physical damage to the roots. Probably from under watering. Quick pH swings can also cause this type of root stress. All that matters is new growth is healthy. Remove the damaged lower leaves and act like it never happened.

    Those pots can allow pests in and I’m not the biggest fan but they do work. If your tent humidity is too high you’ll need a dehumidifier in the room the tent is in and constantly exchange the air. Flood and drain tables with work well with pots like Rain Science has. https://rainsciencegrowbags.com/

    It’s never too late to remove lower shaded growth.

    Harvest when your plants are mature. The moon doesn’t dictate that. I understand the physics of the moon’s gravity. The plant doesn’t need the moon’s help to pull anything up like water or minerals before or during harvest. The internal system doesn’t need any more pressure. Guttation occurs as the result of too much water pressure in the system and is something to avoid with bud on the plant.

    August 8, 2024 at 10:00 am in reply to: Cannabis plants need boron?

    Trace elements are not something you should need to supplement. Don’t go dumping borax in your soil. Borax is a soluble salt consisting of sodium borate that needs to be diluted in water. Your plants do not need boron supplemented. It’s a trace element. Boron is plant available in the form of boric acid. Boric acid is an essential trace element required by plants (in very small amounts between 0.5-2 ppm) to aid calcium in the formation of cell walls. Boron also helps sugars move around the plant through the phloem to supply energy during reproduction. It’s very important.

    I’d keep O3 away from my grow as oxidative stress of plants is a real thing. O2 isn’t an issue but the oxygen free radical released can be an issue.

    Not a calcium or magnesium deficiency. They are two different elements that show completely different symptoms. This is pH related. Brown splotching like this with twisted leaves means the pH buffer of the media quickly swung out of range.

    July 30, 2024 at 7:19 pm in reply to: Winter Frost – New Millenium (Bloom Boosters…again)

    Winter Frost has ethylene precursors that you only use for 1 week, starting about 3 weeks from harvest. Do not use it sooner as it will start the ripening phase that prevents chlorophyll production and other important processes. It can be mixed in a reservoir with your normal feed. It’s most beneficial use case is for long flowering plants that are slow to mature. Something that ripens in 8 weeks or less doesn’t really need the push. It’s usage rate is fairly low so it’s not going to break the bank as a supplement.

    Mold resistance has more to do with bud structure, not root structure.

    Not always. New and old growth can show symptoms.

    Anything with a compressor needs to set upright for at least a day to make sure the oil has settled. You can not run a compressor on it’s side or upside down.

    Don’t think you realize how time consuming and unnecessary the process is. I’ve done grafting with many trees like avocados. There is a very good reason no one does this with cannabis. It’s a good idea on paper, but that’s it. This is a fairly common question new cannabis growers have when they first hear about grafting. As far as plant counts are concerned, they’re for law abiding citizens that have never done anything for this plant.
