A stressful week.
Firstly spotted some burning on the edges of the leaves and some slight taco-ing. After doing what any new grower would do (panicking and franticly googling in a "I just searched web md and I think I have cancer" sort of way), I found out that commonly this is caused by heat stress. I also had some helpful peeps on here tell me the same thing.
To resolve this I moved the tent to a different location that's a bit cooler, and discovered that there is a whole huge velcro vent in the side of the grow tent for exactly this. Oh well, you live and you try desperately not to learn. I also moved the sensor closer to the canopy, to make the fan turn on at more appropriate times.
My Wasserwaage is about the right height that I can use to quickly measure the light height from the top of the plants and adjust it without too much thinking. Vital pre-coffee.
I also realised I wasn't giving the soil enough time to dry out, so I have switched to manually triggering the water, and everyone seems happy about that at the moment.
I have no idea what I am doing, but I feel like I am getting a handle on this.
You can defiantly start now if you would like. I pull my plant over to start it growing horizontal to give the branches the most light and also even the canopy out.
I hope this helps.
Any idea what is causing this crisping on a few of my leaves? I am maybe seeing some slight curling/taco-ing on the upper leaves too?
I think the PH might be a bit high in my water too, it's 7. I've ordered a filter and some PH Dwon, the PPM was only 250. Related?
Heat and RH stress with strong feeds + maybe lights.
Tacoing leaves is normal for plants that are to hot with low RH and need more fresh air, This can also happen with light stress.
The spacing between your nodes is a bit compact not the worst so can also try lowering the lights intensity.
Good Luck!
So two of my plants have flowered, however a third seems somewhat shorter and doesn't seem to have Pistil. Is this plant not yet flowering, is it male, or is something else going in here. Looks healthy other than that.
Hello,
It looks like a late bloomer. I would check every day once but to me she just looks like she needs more time for the flip. Auto's do what they want when they want and not every seed is the same so she may grow different and later also maybe smell and taste different.
I would wait a little more just to be sure.
Hope this helps.
