Day 16 - 11/9 Was away for a few days and she got a to little water when I was away and was quite dry. Were also a bit high temps so think she got a bit of a heat shock. The bottom two leaves have yellowed which I'm not happy with, and the tip cracked up on one of the leaves. The yellowing might also be from a bit of nutrition deficiency since she only got water for the past 4 days. Trying to salvage the situation and saturated her good. Gonna keep a close eye on her the next couple of days and hope she bounces back. Decided to raise the light a bit since i think she might have gotten a bit to hot and give her better conditions. The nodes seems to be starting to sprout out well tho. Gonna let her be for a couple of days and consider transplating to a bigger container and do some light LST. Day 18 - 13/09. Seems like she is having a bit of nutrient deficiency. The lower leaves have turned more yellowish, Going to go from 1/2 dose to 1 dose for the next watering and and up the cal mag a bit to see if that sorts it out. She really didnt enjoy getting to dry during the weekend. I am planning to trim the lowest leaves since they arn't getting that much light anyways, but as I see the next set of leaves have become a bit pale as well, i hope that will be sorted out first. Just got my PH-meter as well, so going to make sure that the PH is correct going forward. pH-Perfect series was doing fine until i gave her a few days with only tap water, which has a PH around 7.5. Day 19 - Upped the nutes to 3ml/Liter and removed the bottom two leaves that did nothing anymore. Day 20 - 15.09, She seems to look a bit better after i upped the nutes. Still slightly yellow but will probably take a few days to see the result. Have been planning on transplanting her, and got my new coco mix today. Mixed it out with perlite and gave Betty more room to live in. She's now in a 3 gallon pot which will be her last pot as I dont have that much space to work with. When taking her out of the pot, I see that her roots were starting to fill out, so could probably have done this some days ago. Hopefully she will thrive with more room to grow. Watered after the transplant with 2ml/l nutes right after and adjusted light height is about 60cm now. Will let her rest a few days and get settled in. Day 21 - Transplanting to a bigger pot went well. She hangs a bit right before lights out, but perks up thill the next morning

Anyone have an idea if the plant has been to eagerly watered? The photo was taken from the same day, 5 hours apart. Plant didnt get any water yesterday so thought it might be time and the coco seemed dry, but she has been drooping since. Should i lay of a couple of days?

Depends when was it taken if this was taken when the lights have just gone on then no its just the plant opening up its stomatas to collect moisture from the air or anything else you give it thats why you should use foliar sprays just before the lights go off. If this is while the lights are on though yes this is defo an over water :) Nothing that a few days left wont fix though to stop this happening in the future I would advise only watering around the base of the plant and not saturating the whole medium she is not that large shes does not need much at this stage though I will say other than the slight overwatering that is one happy healthy plant well done sir !

Hi! Is it fine to remove the upper fan leaves on this plant as well or should I wait thill the side branches get bigger leaves? I removed the lowers leaves after LST so nothing touches the soil, but some of them are blocking a bit light for the new growth. Thanks!

I would strongly advise against removing any leaves from a plant that size, she needs every leaf she has to be making the energy she needs to grow. The new growths are relying on those leaves to make the energy they need to be able to grow! I am very anti defoliation - if the plant would not need those leaves, it would not grow them in the first place! At this size/age, even one fan leaf is a large percentage of "energy making ability", so removing any will slow growth due to the lack of energy making potential. Your plant will grow its biggest and fastest with all of its leaves left on the plant, to make energy for that growth. Just remember - Less leaves = less energy = less growth. It is that simple! Your plant has evolved into a finely tuned growing machine based on efficiency. Removal of leaves is not part of your plants' plans. Try and only remove yellow leaves, for by the time they are yellow, they have served their purpose. In the mean time, try leaving every green leaf she has, to make the energy she needs to grow her biggest and fastest. Hope this helps, Organoman.

I've got several lower branches that aren't stretching high enough to get any good light, at what point during flower is it ok to get out the scissors? I think I might need to do a lil leaf trimming in the lower canopy as well. Could/should this be done at the same time? Thanks

Hello My friend first of all completely ignore what the grower below me has said if you look at his profile he has harldy any likes and diaries nor any sponsers hes just trying to feed people bs to win the seeds anyway. let me give you some proper advice. My advice no not in the first few weeks of flower when she hits 20 days and you start to see bud sites then yes go ahead chop as much as you want off but in the first few weeks of flower is a very delicate time for a plant making the transition so wait until she hits 3 weeks and then cut off all the under growth that will be the best option for you my friend :) Best of luck :)

Hi there @CHILLING_RACOONS, Thank you :) So temperatures is one thing I've kinda forgotten to update once its gotten this close to the lamp. At average i have mananged to keep the temp around 24 degrees. the pot-area is stable 20ish. It varies a bit depending on the temperature outside, I dont use any heating at home now so if its cold outside/inside, then the tent gets chilled to =D Now that she has gotten so tall, the temp on top is 30ish degrees according to my thermometer.

Looking good , they went through a bit of a stretch in first couple weeks of flower! Im also using hps for flower, mh for veg. I use a 600w + digital ballast with vented cool hood, light is enclosed in hood ,sealed by glass air is pulled through ducting & over light bulb & then pumped out. Seems to work well, able to put light closer with out burning tops of plant, recommend it , 2 types - cool tube or cool hood i ve got the cool hood & think its better than cool tube , better light distribution.

Average temps are around 25 degrees celsius. Keep mine at 18 inch above canopy, but can have it closer
