So there hasn't been a lot going on in terms of healthy growth. It seems I've been giving nutrients too often and that the pH of my water is too high (7.8) resulting in a Calcium defficiency and stunted/abnormal growth.
Following some great advice from Bulbi to one of my questions. I've bought some Cal-mag and pH down to try and mitigate this issue, I've done the following :-
: 1ml Cal-Mag to 1l of Water per plant
: 2ml Cal-Mag to 1l of spray bottle to be used infrequently
: I haven't pH reduced on this watering as I noticed the Cal-Mag slightly reduces the pH, so to not shock the plants I'll lower the pH marginally on the next 2 feeds untill it's at 6.5
: Raised the light to 45cm
: Changed the lighting schedule to 18/6
Let's hope these few changes will bring these lil babys back to life!
I'll post some mid-week pictures to show any difference.
Hi there!
I've gone and done some LST to my plants, you can see it pictured above.
Have I gone over the top with it and was it a bit late in starting? I'm also now thinking of lowering my 600w LED from 60 to 50/45cm for the now LSTed branches. Worth it?
Cheers
Hey Jedi!! Your LST looks fine not overboard at all👍 and no your not to late at all it can be done at any stage pretty much. and yes you can lower your light a bit if you want to just make sure to keep a close eye on it at first just to make sure it's not going to burn the plants Looking Good!!
@Red_i_jedi, when they do that stretch they really suck the nutes. The strains I've tried really could tolerate a lot of nutes during the growth phase.
@goodgrow, since this picture its stretched another 8cm or so... I'm fretting a bit as I don't have the grow space hahaha.. Whoops. I'll be updating here tomorrow so check the stretch :/
