Still having trouble with the grow light being too strong. I checked with the manufacturer for height recommendations for the model I have and it said 3.5- 4 ft over the canopy, which puts the usable space in a 6ft tall grow tent at 2-2.5 ft. Add in a 5 gallon pot and that’s down to 1-1.5 ft of room to actually grow in?
And that’s why a barely used 0 grow light was listed for on marketplace. At least it wasn’t a super expensive lesson to learn lol.
white hairs lower on the plant are already turning orange. No bud mass. Some rusty-brownish markings on lower leaves probably from too low ph water when my ph tester lost calibration. No hermi/sac signs.only been nute-fed 2 times total, with 1/4 rec’d amount. UnderH2O’d maybe?
Useless picture.
Post this question again with a clear and close up picture or 3 of the actual issues, then you might get an answer to your question that fits better than "they look ok".
Increased amount of water while feeding to get some more consistent runoff, while slowing it down a lot to ensure it reaches the bottom instead of leaking out the sides of the cloth pots.
First bit of runoff was 5.3 pH, which helps explain some of the brown spots on the lower leaves. I got it up to 6.5 for the last bit of runoff, I’m glad I noticed it now.
Any other suggestions or advice is more than welcome!!
Got some tents this week, now able to separate the photoperiod plant from the auto for different light schedules.
Need to buy a few out-take fans to manage tent heat with the summer coming but otherwise everything is looking good.
The buds are really starting to thicken, but I’m worried the plant is too bushy for the bud to develop properly…. It’s an auto and a lot of the advice I was getting was not to defoliate and risk shocking the plant, but then I see pictures some people post with the bottom 2/3 of the plant basically bare? I obviously have some more to learn, any tips and advice is totally appreciated!
if youre talking about the lowest older leaves, then this is just natural. the plant has no use for them and is putting its focus elsewhere. the plant will cannabilize old leaves for different reasons. sometimes if the environment is too dry or underwatering or also towards the end of life and when theyre needing to put energy towards buds
