Hey guys, we are seeing some pretty heavy stretching, using the optic 4 gen 4, had it set at 25% at 36in. Swapped it to 50% yesterday trying to see if that helps, but anyone have any info using this light?
If the light isn't strong enough it will stretch and fall over to try reaching for it. Too intense and it will burn. I generally keep a low intensity light on my seedlings for the first few weeks. Like i rock a T-5 Full spectrum 2ft light tube over them about 12" above. I let them sprout and grow up towards the light. After 2 or 3 weeks they get moved into their new environment and with the lights being stronger (i use a Optic 2 Gen 4 Veg) i will have them under it with 24" between the top of the seedlings and then light, and 50% power. I'll monitor their growth for stretch, or damage from light intensity. As they progress i tend to increase light intensity with the dimmer, but leave the distance set till they are on their 4th or 5th node. Then adjust the height accordingly.
All going well and really dialing in the Temps humidity and PPFD/DLI. No more stretching.
Watering around 200ML of water per plant. Had a pretty low PH to start 5.6-5.8 because of forum misinformation. Have it at 6.1 range starting a few days ago, that's why you see curling on some, certain plants didn't like that I suppose some resisted it like Champs.
Starting to hit them with normal amounts of VBX 5gram per Gal and 0.1 gram Cannabolic Stacker and 2ML Rhizo Blast.
The ethos is pretty transplant shocked, starting to come around tho. No new posts till new week, but excited with first week veg progress!
Start of week 2, seeing great progress. Have a little bit of leaf curling on sides? Thinking it was from a low humidity and high light strength. Changed both and haven't seen it progress. Any info let us know, thanks for following so far!
Start of week 3! (4 if you count a week of seedling/germination) looking amazing. Only stragglers is the ethos. Everything else is doing amazingly. Next watering will be VBX at full strength. Next week or two might start some defoliation. And for sure topping the ethos. All in all going well. Starting to get a bit colder tho. Trying to mitigate that without bringing in a heater.
4 if em were male, cut them down. Got 5 left. Swapped most to 7gal have one left to swap over. Down to 2 God's sluricaine. 1 Jackie's Chilles 1 ASTRO Pink and the Strawberry Cookies by Ethos left. All looking amazing. Starting to top them and create our canopy before swapping to flower.
Hey guys! Today is the first day of 12-12. All plants have been defoliated, topped and LST'D (did one fim and allcback a few weeks ago) all around 2.5ft to 3ft tall, nice canopy, just waiting for stretch to hit to throw up a trellis. We took cuttings from the gods sluricaine the strawberry ethos and the jackies chillies. That's for another diary. Will update again when I see more physical changes.
Just updating the week. Already huge stretch setting in. Finished the autos so I set up my other LED in the tent. Insane diffrence and I know it will be pushing some serious flower with the two combined lights. Will update in another week or two. Check out the completed auto grow! Two months 16 days seed to harvest.
