Flowering Day 53 - Some plants are failing to thrive

Day 53 into the flowering cycle and half of the plants are starting to show signs of sickness. Possibly due to nutrient imbalance. Unfortunately this has been going on for sometime now. But we didn't realize it was not going to self-correct.

Most of the indica plants appear to be thriving. Leaves are green to dark green. But as you can see in the photos the sativa plants have light green and worse yellow green leaves.

The Sativa were transplanted somewhere around 20 - 30 days into the flowering period.  They went from a 1 gallon smart pot to a 5 gallon smart pot.

Aside from that they have received the same low stress training, topping and feeding as the indica.

Damage Control: 

We're trying to figure out what is needed to bring these beauties back to the healthy dark green color range.

History: 

All plants are being fed on an alternating schedule. Nutrients then the next time is plain pH balanced water and then back to nutrients. Both nutrients and water feedings are pH balanced to around 5.5 - 6.5.

On nutrient feeding days the plants receive, MaxBloom and CalMag. We were trying to keep things simple and not use too many supplements.

The leaves below were pulled off one of the sativa plants shown above. We are not sure at this time if this is a nutrient, light, wind or even ectoparasite issue.

Name that sickness

Seriously we would love to know what the issue is and how to correct it.

Day 31 - Finally some signs of Greener futures

Day 31 - Finally some signs of Green!!!

So we had a little luck in the past 5 days.  What did we learn.

Coco is an inert medium.  Growing in coco means you are going to be introducing nutrients on a regular schedule.  That is something we did not do for the first 25 days.

In 6 days we have seen almost all 7 of the seedlings double in size.  Many have developed at least one new node in that time.  Finally seeing a little stretching too.

Currently we are feeding 1/4 strength of 5-5-5 fertilizer.  3 Fert feeds and then 1 pure water to prevent any nutrient lock.  Drip to waste style watering.  Lights are still 18/6 (~ 108 Watts of uncapped LED bulbs).

To prevent potential stretching.  The distance between the light and the plants is now ~20 inches.  It was previously around ~24 inches.

Feels pretty good to know that we are slowly getting out of the seedling phase of the grow.  And to have only lost 1 seedling along the way to this point.

Here is are the latest photos of the ladies:

Day 25 - Quest for New growth

Day 25 - Quest for New Growth

The seedlings are slowly showing signs that they haven't died.  Little has changed since they were moved out of the grow box and into an open environment.  Watering is still on a needs basis, and lights are on 18 off 6.

Nutrient feeding is going to start tomorrow.  Fingers crossed that starts the seedlings down the path back towards growth and not towards the compost...

Day 15 - Seedlings are hanging on

Day 15 - Seedlings are still looking pretty sickly, light green and leaves are drooping

The seedlings have been moved from the peet pellets, and into a pre-mixed coco soilless medium. They are now getting watered until there is run off, every other day.  From the original 6 seedlings, 5 seem to have survived the transplant.  All 6 were physically removed from the peet pellets and then planted into the coco.

Two additional seeds were started about the time of the transplanting.  They are out side cups in the middle row.  They quickly caught up with their struggling sisters, and are showing the healthiest shades of green of the 7.  The front cup contains a seedling that is currently having the worst go of things.  Many of the seedlings are off color which isn't a great sign.  They have a light green color and not the dark green.  The leaves are also drooping rather than fanning up towards the light like hungry seedlings ought to be doing.  Even the two newest additions are sort of bending a bit.  Needless to say this is not the best start of a grow. 

The distance between the light and the back cups is around 12', and due to the slant increases slightly for the middle and front rows.

No nutrients are being given yet.  

At this point the box design seems a little too intense given the choice of lights.  These are twelve 60w Cree LED bulbs (9w equivalent).  So that's around a 108 watt set-up.  The temp doesn't seem too high and the fan is certainly keeping any heat moving out of the box.

Hopefully now that the seedlings are in a stable medium, that isn't being overwatered.  They can bounce back and start to thrive.
