@Hellraiser EC of input water is 2.00. pHed to 6.50. Only did Jacks, no silica, nothing else.
Runoff of Blueberry was 5.60 pH and EC was 3.30.
Runoff of Critical Gorilla was 5.83 pH and EC was 3.48.
Didn’t even bother checking runoff of the Wedding Cake as I assume it will be just as bad…
So I just fed, should I flush instead?

Not that bad really, but I would do a mini-flush on next watering (get at least 50% runoff) with maybe a bit higher ph (6.7 - 6.8) to bring it up a little.

Welcome back bud! Hope you’ve been doing well. I see you’re in flower!

@JWhistler Yup I’m back! In flower and loving how the Blueberry is looking with all the trichomes covering the leaves. This starts the point where I look at it every day and go “is it done yet” even though I know it is no where near ready… I just start salivating when I look at it lol

Thanks! I’m hoping that it won’t be too dense and I start getting mold issues…
The next grow will be in this planter
I will be mainliming/manifolding it, so just 2 nodes off the main stem, both going lengthwise down each side with colas coming off them.
I also fixed the drainage issue with my 6 inch pots.
I hope.

I want to mainline my next run too. I want 4 plants in my 27"x27". Time will tell

@Hellraiser @MaD-VapoR Blueberry still turning yellow… I’m feeding today, and wondering if I should give it more Calcium Nitrate? If so, how much more? 10%? I kinda expected them to stop turning yellow at this point since I figured they would be eating through phosphorus more instead of nitrogen. I will be checking runoff too to see where EC and pH is at.
My other question is, could this happen from root rot or becoming root bound? Worried about root rot because that’s how all my regular plants got sick… I have drilled out more holes in my other pots, so I could transplant them from the unbridled pots to the drilled pots, but not sure if it’s worth it…

Bummer your still fighting this man! Can you just drill the pots they’re in? Even swap may not matter but I’d be trying to avoid transplant during flower if I could.

It may be possible, but running it through in my head and I just see the drill bit going right it the soil destroying roots… I just feel like it would be worse doing it that way 
This could not even be the problem though… In 3 days the pots are super light… So it may not be the pots… I’m not sure!

I mean… a 3 day wet cycle sounds great to me. I was watering every day and a half to 2 days at some points, which was a pain. If holes would help I’d use a Dremel with a round burr. Way lower risk

Unfortunately I lost my dremel… No idea what happened to it… I’m starting to think it may just be root bound, but if it’s rootbound I’d think I would be watering every other day… ugh this is nerve wracking

Can you see the roots through the white plastic? It’s tough to imagine with all these variables.
I’ve worried about root bound… then I’ve looked at hellraiser growing little trees in solo cups and think . Nah… my 4 gallons are plenty. Haha

Can’t see through the plastic, it’s too thick. When hellraiser did his solo cup grow I think he trimmed roots, but I’m not sure. I’m just gunna feed it my normal dose.

Sorry to bomb your journal, thought this could help a little. My first grow with a bag seed, 7 weeks into flower had to cut her because of root rot. You can see the pictures of my roots, also the color and droopy sadness. Does this look at all like your plant? If so it might be root rot, anyway hope this helps

I’d pull it out of the pot and see what’s up…shouldn’t damage the roots (in a round pot right?) doing that and if there is root rot, go ahead and trim to try to save what you can. And while it’s out…drill the pot. Plant isn’t doing well so I’d do something to try and salvage the grow.
How many days in flower are you?

@MaD-VapoR I think I’m a month in… I thought I had the date on here but I flipped to flower while I was banned so there is no update. Restarted my growers helper app, so no info on there either lol… I screwed the pooch on this one. When I feed today I will check the roots and put it in a pot I drilled Saturday. Can’t run the drill now anyways, fiancé is working.
@tchop134 Mine actually isn’t drooping like that. Hmmm… We will see what the roots look like.
I have to wait an hour and a half for lights on, then I can check roots and feed.
