yellowing from the bottom up would suggest you've depleted your soil of nutrition.

Checking in with a weekly update! Organic white widow grown in kind soil and fox farm coco loco, 3 gal smart pot, 600w LED in 32x32x63 tent. Week 5 Veg. (46 days)
Both girls seem to be responding fairly well to the "water only method." I began using SmartWater for my main source, (thought perfectly balanced pH was ideal) however I've been informed possibly too much cal mag and could be an "expensive way to kill plants." Since our last watering (9/4), I've tested and switched to distilled water @ 4 day intervals 1.5 liters. I've also checked tap water pH which seems to be at 7 as well. I've noticed a few leaves have turned yellow and have fallen off on their own, the kind soil instructions states this is normal, especially if the rest of the plant is still responding well. By the end of this week will begin training to increase yield, using a trellis netting. Grow temps have been between 76-80 degrees with rh between 48-50%.
Will not add any nutrients per kind soil instructions. http://www.kindsoil.com/soil-informatio ... hotos.html

Until next week!

Hello all, Buddy here, first timer, excited for all the insight and advice to come! Ultimately I wanted to grow to save money, see if I could turn a habit into a hobby and also challenge myself with a new task. I think it’ll also teach me discipline along the way, I’m sure I’ll become more invested in all things plants beyond Mary Jane but either way I’m ready.
I’m growing 2 indoor white widow with 300 w led in 32x32x63 tent. I’ll be switching to 600 w led today, as I’m offices it 2 weeks into vegetation. This grow will be the “water only” method I’m following from the kind soil website. I’ll be siding kindsoil and coco loco potting mix in a 3 gallon fabric smart pot. No nutrients or chemicals necessary for this grow
Subscribed and sat here ready to take notes :oik!:

Another organic grower????? :barmy: :dance: :Stoned:

Love the no training approach too. LST is what I try to stick to. White widow was my 1st organic and succesful grow.

Good luck, although they look pretty good to me.

Maybe if youre heading into flower, top dress, feed (whichever way you do it?) or re amend more medium and re pot? I have started using bigger pits now, 20L in my flowering photoperiod tent, I think I should of gone bigger.

Bigger the better in organics :oik!: or so I've notived in my ventures.
