So I topped the two photo periods, and I decided to change nutrients to Nectar of the Gods , followed the directions in their sample pack , added a drip fertagation system , feeding approx. 100 ml every six hours per plant, been straight feeding, no plain water , tds is around 830ppm going in, gonna check soil Tds tomorrow, so far though the girls are loving the nectar , also got my lighting situation straight and added a CO2 tank and controller , keeping the room around 1200ppm during the day. Finally getting the atmospheric variables really dialed in , sealed off my grow room a little better with spray foam last week , went the whole week with only 2 degree range of temperature all week , humidity varied about 6 percent , with the mean at 60.6 percent . Noticing that managing Ph, Temp, Humidity, and atmosphere is really the best thing I can do for my girls , they respond with crazy new growth. Super excited for next week.

Hey growers ! Can I get someone's input on what would cause the tips of one of my seedlings first pointed leaves to be white ? It's only one plant out of 4 but If it's something I need to correct I'd like to do it early , thanks in advance! Happy growing :)

i'd wager the growbig dose you gave plus the initial ~1EC charge in promix might be a bit too much for the seedling -- especially if there was no runoff water. Becareful with fertilization early on. What the promix has in it is enough for 7-14 days at least. Then, since soilles you'll be watering with 10-15% runoff waste and that will maintain whatever EC your fertilization is in the substrate. 1.3-1.5EC once you ramp up. Observe and react to plant. Take notes for next time. It will help, but don't expect 100% constency in how things turn out.. ballpark idea only as so many variables can change. Even your regional seasons will impact what you do at times. No big deal.. if not getting worse, just keep irrigating as needed. The early leaves are sometimes fugly, too. If newer growth is flawless, i wouldn't think twice about the cotys or single/three-bladed leaves. soilless-- fertilize every single irrigation -- though maybe not the first. You may need to ramp up over first 2-3 weeks, while some plants can take more sooner. Can use the coty's as guide.. once they start to pale, you know it needs more nutes. If that time period is fairly consistent, you can premeptively start to fertilize around then in future with confidence. Always water to runoff of 10% or more. This will just about guarantee no EC swings in your substrate barring massive microbial problems. That's waste water.. goes down the drain or okay to use on outside plants only. don't let it sit in it. You'll just grow nasty stuff and roots will be drowning in stagnant, high EC water at bottom of pot. Wait for top layer to dry, unless you are trying to do multiple fertigations per day. Learn the weight at that point as it's your best cue to water. You'd need way more perlite for frequent irrigations, though.. Regardless, in future go for a cumulative 50% portion of substrate being perlite or similar amendment for drainage properties - vermiculite, rice hulles, perlite, hydroton, whatever.. though huge and chunky is not best (lookin at you hydroton and the super coarse perlite that is 1/4-1.2" large or large wood chips, lol.. just making roots work 3x harder to go around it). You'll get better growth rates, reduce risks... only downside is you may need to water sooner than before. Do that with a 1.3-1.5 EC and you will not encounter many problems.. if you do they will be slow-moving and easy to be patient while correcting anything. Take notes... until it's familiar. it will speed up learning curve. Find a ppm calculator online.. knowing what you feed in a soilless grow is very useful information... once you dial stuff in you won't bother, but early on it helps illuminate causality.

Hey man loving it. Sorry to hear about your amnesia haze. Other plants are looking great! I laughed at the depriving wife of food comment but I know your hype for that new light to come in. Good luck man can’t wait for next week.

So the seedling from my grow question with the white tips turned out to be my small runt Durban sunrise. Idk if her genetics are wacky or if I hurt her early on when trying to get the grow up and running. Either way she's stating to show alot of growth and seems to be happy . Just figured it was worth documenting. :)
