the brown tips are prolbably nute burn, thats a number one sign. whats the pH of your soil? if the leaves are gettin crispya nd brown chances are there is a pH imballance or to many nutes. what i would reccomend is to test your pH, then do a flush and leach all the nutes outta your soil and see how they do. you said you are ferting, how often and at what strength. answering these questions will help with a proper diagnosis

im using the seabird guano 12-8-2 at about half strength 5-1-1 fish emulsion about half strength my ph says an even 7 but i have a cheap ph tester any suggestions to where i could get a better one and ill try and give it a flush i just had to water today i can still flush say tomarrow yes?

skitzo63

yeah you should be able too... if you want a better pH tester, go to your local gardening store. as for the flush, just note if you see any stuff comming outta the bottom. you wanna leach the soil, so you should see built up salts running out the bottom. flush till the water becomes clear, then don't water again for about a week, give or take.

thats what i would do, but then again, i ain't no dirt farmer. but i do have burn experiance, and the leaf tips are a tell tale sign.

good luck

well im not sure what you mean about RH but ill definately flush them and with using the organics it wont get rid of all my ferts right so i wont need to fert any after flushing should still have some correct?

rudnik

ya sorry for being newb at this this is my very first experience with weed trying to do it right and the purple stems could that be my strain i ordered it from wws xxxtra skunk?

rudnik

oh and im only givin them few doses started with fish emulsion then added in some the seabird and have planned to give them half strength on the guana and fish stuff till near end of veg

rudnik

ahhhh was readin rh i have thing water sitting in my main inputing fan keeping it decently moist in the room its some what dry but i dont think is too dry...

skitzo63

get a RH meter. this is a variable that must be monitered. they are realitivly cheap and sometimes come in a combo with a thermometer. i have a digital one, think it cost me like 20 CDN. well worth your while.

yeah purple stems could be the strain. could also be a larve variance of temerature. untill you can measure these your kinda taking a stab in the dark. its better to have all the equipment and know what is really going on, then try to guess at what it may be.
