9/5/24: Well these gals grew quick. Did some slight defoliation, just removing the dead leaves at the bottom. Their growth rate has me a little worried about the stretch so I'll be flipping the ladies tonight. Lights are currently on from 12am-6pm, but I'll be giving them an extra long night tonight, so I can adjust the lights to be on from 10am-10pm as those hours will better align with my work schedule. 9/6/24: I'm excited to see these gals stretch. Already almost dry, will need to fed either tomorrow or the next day. 9/7/24: Girls looking good. Noticed the negative pressure in the tent was making the side press against Lucy, causing one of her sides to get all droopy and bunched. Added another support rod to keep the tent from pressing up against them. 9/8/24: Almost dry, I'll definitely be feeding tomorrow morning. 9/9/24: Gals were definitely needing some food. Went ahead and switched to the bloom cycle nutrients, per the manufacturer's instructions, and gave them another feeding. Looking forward to seeing how fast these ladies grow the next couple weeks. 9/10/24: Lucy is looking a little sad, wondering if she may be getting too much light and wind. Went ahead and raised the fan and the light a bit to hopefully reduce some stress and get her growing nice and happy again. 9/11/24: Glad to see the ladies looking better after their feeding and adjusting the light and fan. Depending on how crazy they grow this next week or 2, I may have to trellis.

KingMickeystarted grow question 2 months ago
Just recently transplanted(1gal - 5gal), first-timer so it didn't go as smoothly as I planned or hoped. The girls look a little sad, which I hear is pretty normal this soon after transplanting, but is there anything I can do that can help the ladies make a full/quick recovery?

They are going to recover perfectly in just a few days. Give them some time to get used to their new environment and make new roots/drink the moisture from the fresh soil and they will peak up again!😊 I think they are looking very good for your first grow! 😊

The yellowing has gotten worse and I'm noticing slightly burnt tips/edges and some droop. Could this be burn/deficiency or over/underwatering? A combination? Is there anything I can do to fix this early or is it just a matter of giving them some time and less nutrients? Thanks!

Difficult to tell, but my guess would be a combination of nitrogen deficiency (the yellowing is quite uniform) and a little overwatering. Mg deficiency the leaf veins stay quite green and the rest of the leaf lightens.

I've heard that you shouldn't top your ladies while there are any deficiencies or issues as it can be extremely stressful. Considering the light spotting and slightly burnt tips, would you say these gals are fine to top or should I wait until everything is perfect and dialed in?

They are looking happy and healthy. You can definitely top, just take off as little as you can on the top node. Sometimes you might need to wait a day or 2 for it to open up so you can cut just the tip off. That helps a lot for them to not take too much of a hit.

Your doing everything spot on and for your first time aswel. I might be wrong but your perlite is telling me too much water or not leaving medium to dry out almost between water/feed etc.. Good luck mate Happy growing 👍

Those Strawberry strains can be a bit finicky from my experience. Fingers crossed it turns out great for you! It looks like you’ve done your homework and are well-prepared. Good luck!

As a beginner, this site has been such an amazing resource. Being able to ask you guys questions, and get such great advice from all you more experienced folk has been extremely helpful. Most importantly, however, the community being so kind, supportive, knowledgeable, and helpful has not only made this whole learning experience a lot less intimidating and difficult, but also a lot more fun. HUGE thank you to everyone that takes the time to comment, answer, and help out!!!
