It's been a bit of a rocky week for all the plants, things popping up all over the shop but I'm putting it down to being a noob. Light distances/intensity issues and plenty of upcurling leaves from being a proper wally with my nutes. Royal Bluematic #1 - She's had a bad case of Light Burn and it's explained below. I've also noticed this one 'moults' the most and I have quite a handfull of dead/deficient leaves per watering where the other 2 plants in the wardrobe barely drop, but I am at a loss with her (other than changing light height and intensity), I've kept her on her nute schedule as I don't beleive nutes are to blame. She's had it hard from the beginning so it could be that....a bit of a bride of Frankenstein hahaha, she's rather stumpy and very bushy with the main cola being quite chunky, again like the Royal Jack my Royal Blue is airy and whispy pistil node sites but plenty of them...why so long to thicc? the other Royal Blue is coming on rather awesomely....hence more pictures of her...sorry #1. I also had to do an autopsy on a branch, I kept wondering why it was looking so buggered and it was due to it being bent right over at somepoint snapping the branch quite high up making it hard to notice, sliced it off and squeezed the end of the branch together, closing it up and keeping it tight. Royal Bluematic #2 - Well....I'm in lurrrve, she's coming on fine, my lil shorty, budding up with thickness and fat cola, plenty of nodes and very sticky and smelly....Really not a lot long left on her I think? Trichs are not so cloudy yet so maybe a couple more weeks. I have gone and really messed up, the last of her main fan leafs on the cola has crisped and curled upwards which I think was due to being moved to the middle of the grow box and suffered PAR intensity overdose!! I've now moved her back to the side and hope for the best...Not a lot else to say for this one, I'll let the pictures do the talking. If you can see on the pictures, the leaves that face the middle of the LED are bleached and weathered. I've hightened the light and gave the LED rig a jig and got some more efficiency out of it in terms of height and PAR intensity, I'm still needing to purchase a PAR meter but I have learn't that this 600w does kick out some and if there's a plant directly below it then that's some light blasting down on the poor plant. With my next grow I'm only dealing with 2 plants so the light share will be much better and make much better use of said PAR :) As for the feed I've notched Guanokalong Bloom up to 0.3ml but keeping CalMag and Rootbastic the same now throughout the grow. I'm keeping the pH at 6.3 as they seem to like it. I'm hoping this week we'll start to see fatter buds and better leaves. Today's album played to them was 'Leftfield - Rhythm & Stealth'

This is my first time growing, so I'm very noob. I'm worried about 2 of my seedlings, one is rather stretched with drooped leaves and the other has a malformed 1st leaf. They are only 6 days old, should I be worrying?

Malformed 1st leaves happen, see my Dwarfen Lady diary. She had a strange growth pattern at first, but pulled through and developed to be the biggest girl in the box. So nothing to worry about ... yet. The stretching of the other one is a different matter. Looks like she is getting not enough light to me. I would lower the grow light by at least 30-40 cm. I tried to have a distance of 40-50 cm between light and plants, and that worked for me

So, something has happened, thinking it's either a nute lock or cal-mag deficiency so thinking a flush and then no nute feed with cal-mag. Should I be worried? Is this at all save-able? I fed them with bites about 4days ago. Really don't know what to do

Hey there Red, yeah man of course it's saveable, veg is great because veg is veg and the plant will recover, eventually. So basically you have a standard calcium deficiency, even though you're in soil for two reasons. First, the light schedule is too intense so the plant is going into overdrive and it simply cant absorb enough calcium through its roots. Second, I see you're not checking the pH of the feed, this is going to lead to such problems , for example the rooting agent you're using is going to raise the pH of the soil and this will cause problems. The solutions are simple though, so no worries ! first get some cal mag and add it to the feed every now and then , use the cal mag as a spray 2ml / L . the spray will help the plant get better quicker because absorption through the leaves is much quicker than through the roots. And finally get some cheap pH strips so you can pH your waterings : you're aiming for 6.0 in soil. (pH of rain water is 5.5. ) By the way i wouldnt flush, a flush is actually a pretty stressful thing for a plant, there's no need. If anything you could reduce the light schedule to reduce the stress on the plant. One last thing: dont feed every time ! you should feed once every three waterings ! hope this helps ! 🚀

I'm starting to have leaves showing deficiency on new leaves right at the top, rusty and spikey edges, fading to yellow. I thought phosphorous deficiency but after adding ashes, no luck. I have added pics. Hope someone can help. Cheers

38cm is too close for a light of that intensity.

Can't thank this community enough, the amount of knowledge I'm gaining is priceless and can't wait to pass it on through life.

Could be a bit of light burn seems like most of the damage is in the top of the main cola. You can see the edges of the leaf blades are curling up which means their heat stressed. I would raise the light up. Invest in a PAR meter it will help you judge how intense your led will be on the parts closest to the light.

@Philindicus,cheers dude!! I'm actually itching...watching them plump >.< I'll learn one day. Thanks fro your support and input! I'm chuffed!

@Red_i_jedi, Those buds look great brother. A little bit of leaf burn near the end is no big deal at least the buds weren't hit. Looking forward to your harvest soon.

@Philindicus, Cheers bud. I went and changed the LED rig and got a good 10cm out of it. I think this should sort it now. Thanks again.

Nice setup, good luck with the Bluematic Lady, she did well for me 😜

Red_i_jedicommented6 years ago
@StonedWolf, yo, My area is 85.5w X 45d X 165h so we're very similar in that aspect. I've just had a look through the LED manual and it states that it's 600w LED that replaces 450w HID, only draws around 120w out of the socket....or so it says, I've heard that the real LED wattage isn't really what the manufacturer states but a bit under? Onwards and upwards from here I hope

StonedWolfcommented6 years ago
@Red_i_jedi, yes, we have a very similar stealth wardrobe setup 😎 How big is your growing area? Mine is 50 X 80 cm, with a total height of 165cm And you have a much bigger grow light. Does it really draw 600 W from the wall? Or is it a equivalent to a 600 W HID? Mine says 300 W, but draws only 136 W for real. Anyway, I guess your light is at least double the strength of mine.

@StonedWolf,Cheers dude, it's my first grow with anything so I'm a little dubious. It's been 3 days so hoping to see something popping up soon Just had a gander over your way and seen you're in a similar setup as me! Nice build!

@CRiSPrGrow, Yo dude! thanks so much for the information it was a god send. I've ordered myself a PH and a TDS stick as well as Cal-mag and PH up+down. I've also changed the lighting schedule to 18-6 and hightened the light to 50cm. Thanks again Bulbi, i'll let you know how it goes.
