How close are you running the light? Looks to be only toward the tops, am I correct?
Did you face any issues in veg or until the 3 week of flower?
just on a single strain, blueberry muffin, but it starts smelling strong in week 2. i figured that was a K issue. terps = K from what I understand.

the last ones are the most severe. i have a second tent that has more, but those are okishâŚa couple had issues. one did not have much of any. itâs a great plant. the first was looking super green until this last week.

it happens the worst on fruity smelling strainsâŚnot sure if thatâs a red herring nor not, but thatâs the case so far.

try leaving water out for 48 hours before mixing in nutes. i was always taught not to include my tap water in my ppm feed if plants need 200 and my water is 150 i feed them 350. my full dose of jacks comes up to about 1450 including my 140 water. i dilute it down for certain strains though
those buds look nice hope u can figure it out before anything happens to them.

Yes I would agree with leaving your tap water out for at least 24 hours to get the chlorine out tap water usually runs about 250 to 170 ppm.
Question did you ever let them dry out a lot after feeding them higher ppm, although bro I would say your pretty good donât overthink IT (K.I.S.S) a little burn nothing to beat yourself up about.
looks to me a lil potassium over juiced.
What the max ppm your running.

Also nitrogen will rob you of your flavor.
On a 8-9 week strain at about day 30 start knocking the N down .,

i probably put like 550 total or so on them. i used to do the over night thing, but stopped after having some success without it.
the top one was a good one, iâve been cloning that one a bit. the bottom ones are missing a lot of leaves. itâs looks better than it did. also, the buds on those two bottom ones are some of the worst bud i have grown. my bro gave me two cuts and I know one wasnât goodâŚi thought the other was ok, but they donât have a lot resin to offer.
i use the koolbloom liquid at like 1/2 strength, then top off with bloom nutes. later, i do the full strength koolbloom dry and top off with bloom nutes. itâs not a lot of NâŚat least it doesnât seem like it.
yes. they have about 25 inches from the closest leaves/flowers.
Kool bloom dry is hot less is more.
Mix your micros first then base and the additives⌠dilute to desire ppm. I wouldnât go higher 1200ppm " I max out at 1000ppm".
Burn happen after the dry ⌠Is my guess .?
im going 500 though. thatâs the issue. i donât understand getting burns at 500.
Pk ratios to high⌠what medium/soil
are you using?
Whatâs the run off?

perlite. itâs hempy. pretty standard.
it will be a bit before i can check run off, but itâs usually not too high.

Iâm confused @splinter7 as my response was addressing how you can run higher ppm without issues. With @BudBusterPro iâve gotten my feed up to 150% normal mix because of how it helps plants metabolise.

I just think it was the dry Kool bloom it happens that stuff is real hot I use to use now. That and monster bloom . Again very hot less is more.
How many gallons is your mix typically?
I use veg/bloom easy.
Most tap in major cities nowadays includes chloramine and chlorine. In the summertime chlorine/chloramine levels are increased to control the rise in contaminants.
Chlorine will volatilize out of water or âevaporateâ Chloramine is much less volatile and will remain much longer, one of the main reasons treatment facilities use it. They dont have to use as much. $$
If youâre in the US the EPA makes most(likely all)stateâs water authority mandate your community water system to send regular reports throughout the year and you can access them usually online to determine all the nasty crap in your water if you cant get them from your community water system directly. Its called conumer confidence reporting and you can request it yourself.
Not sure if thatâs your problem @splinter7 it could be the combination of nutrients, some of the GH line claims to include âeverything neededâ
