So, I gotta say, ILGM has served me well. These purple haze seeds are working out nicely. I’m at 80 days from seed, 43 days into flower (12/12), although I did switch from 20/4 to 16/8 8 weeks ago, so she may be feeling more like 7ish weeks into flower.
Started getting this fading of the leaves, so I just wanted to get some opinions. Looking like the beginning of a normal fade for purple haze?.. maybe getting ready for harvest in a about 2 weeks?
There are good foxtails and there are bad ones. The ones showing on that cola are the good kind: typically a last ditch attempt by the plant to breed before giving up the ghost. You also see this more under very high intensity lights which these were under. But that is what you are looking for in a finished cola.
@MattyBear a frend at a local grow shop suggested that there may be evidence of heat or light stress. My LEDs have been at 12", so I may have been pushing it. What do you think about that? He was pointing out the crispy leaf tips as a sign of stress, and he suggested backing the light off an inch or so.
IMHO I think organic vs. General Hydroponics doesn’t mean much. The trace elements/nutrients are the same. It is only a matter on from where they were derived. Guano, bone meal, fish water for nitrates etc. or out of a bottle from GH.
End result is the same unless you make super soil that allows you to plant and forget other than watering. That is very cool, but not something I have or plan to master. As of late I use GH trio, Kool bloom, and Flouralicious or Jacks for my hydro.
