Here we are! We are at the third week, and the girls seem to be fine. I set irrigation time, 2 times a day, 8 minutes per step. And at least for now, I think there are no big problems. In these days I will cut the top (topping) and I will do LSTechnique. I will insert the photos of the before and after. Bye Bye 😁

As from Photos the plants have 7 days of life, with light 24h, I would like to know if I have to wait another week or so to move them to the wilma system, or I can already move them. Thanks

Hi Sora, in my opinion your light were a bit too far or not strong enough because your seedlings are very stratched. I think you can wait few days and move it into the system but be careful with the watering not too much but enough to keep moist. Hope i was helpful Keep growing 🌱

Sorry, about the yellow.. are you using foliar spraying? Sometimes that seems to cook the leaf where a small deposit stays and the lights are on. One more thing, I read that even autos need rest from light. Try switching to a 18/6, or 20/4 schedule until they are vegging (moved into big pots and have roots that touch water).

@BeefWellingtons,How are you man? I put some new photos, because today I noticed the problem at the other plant. any idea?

@BeefWellingtons,Surely it will have happened to me at the beginning of having sprayed water on the leaves. I use a heated greenhouse, but the temperatures in my country mean that there is no need to turn it on (when I turn it on, the temperature rises to 30 degrees celsius). this morning I turned the cubes as you suggested, so as to give the right light from all sides. As for water, I bought a reverse osmosis system (the water in these parts is really disgusting), so as to bring the levels of ec at the minimum. I will only have to try to bring the right amount of calcium and magnesium to the plant, which apparently in hydroponic fertilizers is slightly lower than soil. Today I will change at 18/6 hours of light / dark so as not to stress the plants too much. thank you for your time. 🙏

I'm still pretty new so research this yourself. I don't give my seedlings any nutrients, just ph 5.8 water. I move them out of the seedling tray when 3rd or 4th node appears and then start with 1/4 recommended nutes the first week, and slowly move up to 1/3 nutes next week, etc. Also, you might want to turn those blocks so they have to bend towards the light (face them away from light). Keep that rockwool wet but not soaked. Good luck with your grow.

@Sora85, well I asked the same thing a long time ago. My suggestion would be to ph that water to 5.8 exactly. Keep it wet, but not soaked. I let mine dry out by accident and they fell over and then stunted (really bad). I would have said yes to the move, however you put them in those huge squares. When you move them, they should have a substantial root system growing out of the bottom. Not just the tap root but a few roots. Because you put in larger squares, you need to wait it out, no worries though, you should see something pop out soon enough. Is that seedling nursery on a heat pad? If yes, dial down the heat by 2 degrees or so. My 2nd grow plant had the little leaves that turned yellow and fell off. This is just a warning that something is not perfect for the plant. Since you look like you have the right temps, keeping medium moist, then it's either the light/heat, or wrong ph water. Since you have a cover over them, I don't think its light, also they are leggy/tall (like mine were), so last thing would be ph water...research it, hydro loves 5.8 (there is nutrient lockout above and below this number). Once you are flowering you can kinda drift between 5.8-6.0. Also, are you using tap water? I do. I will keep an eye on your grow and help ya out when I can. Good luck!!

@BeefWellingtons, I'm following the guidelines dictated directly by the manufacturer, even as the starting ec was much higher. the main doubt was whether to move the seedlings in the hydroponic system or wait. Doubt then clarified by the expert and also by you. Did you see those yellow specks and those folded leaves? What do you think about it? Thanks for your advice 😉

Google 'cannabis deficiency chart' That will help, check ph, get it to 5.8

Also, spin the squares 180 degrees.
