So I had to leave for a week and left my plants in the care of someone else. The plants are on a autopot system so all they have to do is watching the temperature and add a few frozen water bottles to lower it. Gave them a list of "if you notice this call me" and never got a call, so I figured everything was going good.... boy was I wrong.... So when I checked on them the lights were off and the water pumps in the tanks were running. By my calculations both tanks should have had enough to last tell the day after I got home. I could hear the pump in the 50L tank for the 2x4 auto tent splashing because it was almost empty but nothing from the 100L tank for the 2x3 and 4x4 feminized tents, but the pump was running. I opened it up amd the water was only a few inches below were I had left it.... at first I thought the filter was clogged but then I noticed the valve was closed.... why the fuck is the valve closed!!!!! I quickly opened it and went to check on the plant....
The GG #4 plant in the 2x3 had dead leaves all around the bottom and two of the lower branches had dried up completely. The middle section had a lot of yellowish leaves that were drooping like crazy but the upper section still had green, light green but green with a bit of drooping. But the main thing was lack of growth, the plant was almost the same size I had left it..
The pictures are 24 hours after I had turned on the autopot system and I have to say the plants have bounced back nicely. Bit still need some much need TLC. Definitely going to set my harvest back about a week because of this and might effect my end yeild.
It could have been a lot worse and I consider myself lucky that this was all the damage that was done and that the plants all bounced back from it.
Well that's all so happy growing everyone!!!
Good looking grow. I'm on day 4 of flower right now on my gg4 clones under a hlg 600r. I will be following along to see how these turn out. Seems like we have a similar grow going on when it comes to nutrients also. I'm throwing the whole kitchen sink at mine too with the complete line of Cutting Edge Solutions Nutrients. Happy growing!
