Might need to lower your lighy, it seems a bit stretched already. And please, please go to 18/6, cannabis NEEDS sleep to finish its photosynthesis cycle and have a correctly functioning metabolism. You will not lose yield, size...... anything by going to 18/6, in fact you will actually gain much due to the plant having a correctly fuctioning metabolism. The myth that it is ok to grow cannabis (or any plant) for weeks/months without sleep needs to be removed from the internet forever and asap! Only someone who does not understand photosynthesis or how plants function could ever recommend for people to grow with 24/0! Your plants leaves are already showing signs of issues, perhaps hunger, perhaps stress from the lack of a dark period. 18/6 is scientifically proven through 90+ years of research into cannabis as the most effective and healthiest light/dark schedule for autos and photoperiod plants in vegetive growth. Personally I would trust 90+ years of scientific research over any sort of bro science/corn flake packet science. Besides, cannabis can only grow so much during any one 24 hour period and this growth "tops out" at around the 18 hour mark, meaning running your lights longer than 18 hours is basically a waste of electricity. Anywy, it is never too late to go to 18/6 and rescue your plants from their "torture regime" of sleep deprivation. Hope this helps, Organoman.

This week is looking a lot better I have solved the decency problem “I hope” due to research and listening to some experience growers. I have cut the light cycle back to 18/6 and have noticed a huge improvement. I added a couple new nutes to my regimen. I would really appreciate some advice on my grow if you could look at my plants and give some input that would be much appreciated

This has been a interesting week I started toping and lst. I preformed a res change on Saturday. 3 days later I’ve got lime to yellish leaves on the new growth. The only thing that is different is I got my mars 2000 tsw back from being fixed, so I took my 600 mars out and replaced it with the 2000 which I set 18” from canopy @ 60% power. I added a gallon of ph water to the res. If someone could offer advice that would be great. As for the girl setting in coco she was one of the 3 seeds I popped but was very weak looking so I took her out of the system and in to coco coir 70% perlite 20% and 10% worm castings. I’m feeding her the fox farms trio. I did something’s different with her. I took all her branches off except for 2 and one leaf on each. She has started showing def as well. In need of help thanks ahead of time

U went from a seedling light to a real grow light and now the plants have responded by exploding with new growth and they are a little bit hungry, thats all. The older leaves look fine so its likely just very fast new growth and the color will come in over the next few days, if not then try making your next lot of nute mix a TINY bit (like 10%) stronger and start changing the res a lil more often too if your going longer periods between changes. But honestly its not really a problem at the moment, more a watch and see and maybe tweak things a touch type deal here ok. Not a problem. Plant looks REALLY nice other than that so it may need slight tweaking to dial in, but its NOT a problem. Dont go changing things alot as that will make it into a problem. Small changes IF, and only IF it doesnt improve on its own in a few days ok.

This week started off with a Deficiency upon further investigation the cause was a filter that I’ve been using on the sink. It was lack of iron. I started filling up jugs 24 tp 36 hours ahead of time to clear out The chlorine. I ended up with a second deficiency magnesium, used 1 teaspoon of Epson salt per gallon and I believe it clear that up. I ended up moving two of the Dolato into Coco coir. My first go at this so I’m pulling the The reins is back a little bit I figured coco is a bit more forgiving to a rookie like me. Hope everyone is having a good run. Until next week 🤘🏼

Went ahead and put the rest of the dolatos in coco coir. With this being my first time I figured that coco would be a little more forgiving than top feed dwc. I would like to hear from more experience growers , do you think I did the right thing or did I muck up. Seems like I still have the growth that I did have and the leaves seem to be a bit greener. Not sure about my decision

Not a bad week I would have gotten more pictures but I’ve been really busy. I went ahead and planted them in there final pot and put the mars hydro 600 in the tent at 24 “. My 2000 is at 75% though about turning her up to 100 put decided to wait. I’m not sure if I’m going to flip next week or not depends on the growth. Anyways man I love doing this shit! ✌️

Well finally I’m flipping into flower. These plants seemed to take off in the beginning then slowed down. I’ve kept them low due to lst. This week they have grown 4 inches amazing to watch. Can’t wait to see what they do

I love doing this but I’m here to tell ya it’s hard on the wallet. It would be cool to do what some of these growers do on YouTube they get to grow, try new lights and strains out. I guess my question is can someone achieve something like that in this grow community? Thanks 🙏

@Timeslikethese, 😆 it is an expensive hobby but you can make it pay for itself with a little work and a lot of patience 😉 not sure who you are watching on YouTube but you can grow what your wallet will allow because quality equipment is important and the environment is crucial to get the best results.... that said you can definitely grow some really good stuff with decent equipment and trying for the best environment obviously perfect is best but I can't achieve that with my current setup so I aim for it and accept what I get...
