03/31 - More LST. Fed with Grow Big, Big Bloom, Cal Mag, Boomerang, and Wholly Mackerel. Showing some signs of nutrient burn. It seems pretty contained and I believe it started last week. 04/01 - Uploaded some pics. 04/04 - Fed with 03/31 - Fed with Grow Big, Big Bloom, Boomerang, and Wholly Mackerel, Kangaroots. Looking better on nutrient burn but the Reba has something going on with a few leaves. One or two were touching the dirt but another two are near top of canopy.

Hello. This is my first grow. This is day 35 from clone transplant. I have a scrog built at 15" from the soil level. Do I need to reduce this for my current plant height as shown in the pictures? I don't fully understand the stretching I will get with Sativa-dominant?

With a sativa dom you can expect an x2 to x3 stretch so if you just flipped to 12/12 they will stretch soon and ( I hope ) fill the net so I don't think you should low down the net

F14 - Watered with Cal-Mag 2ml. 1/2 gallon to each plant. I think the pH was a bit high but not by much. Uploaded pics F12 - Watered with PH adjusted Cal-Mag 2ml. 1/2 gallon to Reba and the other 1/2 spread between the Diesel and Jack. F11 - Uploaded pics. Looks like the last feeding is being handled better. Making sure the ratios stay correct at 1/2 strength probably did it. Reba is looking better. Should have watered tonight but it's going to be tomorrow. F9 - Fed all 3 with weeks nutrients. Added pics. Need to watch Reba because it has some kind of nutrient burn. Reduced mostly to one top it's about gone. I should probably just water with cal-mag this round but I'm going to feed anyways. I'm paying close attention to my numbers being sure to half all doses except cal-mag to make sure ratios are correct. F7 - Watered Jack and Amherst with 2ml Cal-Mag. Defoliated. Added pics.

F18 - Watered with Cal-Mag Jack and Amherst 1/2g each and sprayed them with Flowers Kiss. Reba soil is still moist. F17 - Fed with weeks nutrients. 1/2g per Jack and Amherst. Just watered Reba with Cal-Mag. I did spray Reba's leaves with Flowers Kiss on the top before the lights went out. Uploaded pics. Amherst was burned when I experimented with LED level of 12" above tops. Reba was fine but Amherst burned. I have raised my lights back to about 20" above tops. F16 - Fed with weeks nutrients. 1/3g per plant. Uploaded pics. F14 - Watered with Cal-Mag. 1/2g per plant. Uploaded pics.

F27 - Fed 2/3 gal to each plant with the weeks nutrient schedule. Uploaded pics. F23 - Watered 1/2g to each plant with 5ml Cal-Mag per gallon. Applied Flowers Kiss. Uploaded pics. Temps are getting higher than I would like but this portable AC just isn't cutting it. I'm concerned what the temps might be in a month from now. F21 - Fed 1/2g to each plant per the week's nutrients. I can see trichomes with the bare eye now. Uploaded pics.

F41 - Fed Reba with weeks nutrients. Also added 1/4tsp of the Plant Enzymes. F39 - Fed Jack and the Amherst with the week's nutrients. About 1/2g each. Watered Reba with 2/3g of rain water. Uploaded pics. F38 - Watered each plant with 1/2g of rain water. F36 - Watered each plant RO water until drained out the bottom. Uploaded pics. F35 - Ugh. I think I've been underwatering the Reba. I've overwatered possibly trying to correct it. What a mess. Watered tonight with Cal-Mag pH about 6 to 6.5. 1 gal for all but Reba which I watered with about 1.3 gal.

Do you see nutrient burn? I'm guessing (after some forum assistance) they are underwatered. Shame on me! So nutrient burn or underwatered?
Solved
Leaves. Edges burnt

The leaves doesn´t look underwatered. It looks mostly like she is in need of potassium and molybdenum. An overdose of nitrogen and/or calcium may cause a lockout of potassium or the ph of the drain may be too low for adequate absorbing of potassium and molybdenum.

F46 - Uploaded pics. Just trying to make it 9 1/2 weeks. F45 - Fed Jack about 1/3 of weeks nutrients. Other plants don't need anything. Uploaded pics. F44 - Watered all three plants with about 1/2 gallon each of rainwater. F42 - Reba I think is maintaining at this point. I removed some of the larger fan leaves from Reba and Jack. Soil is still moist on all three plants top and bottom. Wooo, kinky. Uploaded pics.
