hey man your plant is having trouble growing, it could be any number of things but certainly those brown spots are calcium related. Calcium and magnesium are used to regulate photosynthesis and with 90W's worth of light and such an otherwise healthy plant, the plant is stuggling to grow. Those leaves take a lot to maintain you know ! so in the meantime while you're waiting for your new light, lower your current light to around 15/20cm depending on how close you can get it, seems close but it will help. at lights off, spray cal mag something like 3ml/L to 5ml/L for most brands once a day at lights off. uptake by the leafs is 85% efficient, uptake by the roots is 15-25% efficient, you do the math ;-) the problem should stop spreading within 10 days and hopefully by then the new light will come. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Well, not sure if I was gonna throw my Frisian duck away or not, So for fun, I took two clones from her. Didn't think they would make it. But now they starting to grow quite fast, and the mother plant is also recovering and gaining growth and better color. Now gnats are visiting my flowers 😡, so waiting for firepower to get rid of them 👊 if this goes sideways I still have learned a few things from this growth and that's gotta count for something at least😃😂

Messed up a bit with nutrients so got me a deficiency to deal with. Think Potassium might be one of the issue and Calcium on one of the clones.

This is a small grow due to limited space to grow in. Just riding this one out now. See what I get and learn from now on. Just keeping her and the clones till the end not expecting much from this grow at all tbh. But learning what to do and not to do for next run and it's quite fun even tho I kinda fucked up once or twice or maybe three times lmao.

I fucked up good with mother plant she yielded very low but didn't expect much at all tbh and didn't take photos or her after harvest. But these are the clones, also small due to space issues but looks and smells better. Small harvest overall, but learning a lot from my mistakes also. Lesson learned for my next grow that's is CocoPoco auto

@jyodinath, Yeah, no need to rush it :) What's another week or two compared to the wait that's already done 😀

jyodinathcommented5 years ago
@SmallTownGrower, Yes definitely give it an extra week. There's no feeling like the regret of harvesting a bit soon.

Hey there hope I answered your question, your problem is light related, you need to close that distance growmie ! anything else you need just let me know 👊

SmallTownGrowercommented6 years ago
@CRiSPrGrow, Thank you very much, Yeah I figure 90W even if it's true 90W its seems not to be efficient enough for it to grow as it should, had a White Widdow Auto before this one and that one grew really nice under my 90 W LED. But auto don't require the same amount of light? Will try to find cal-mag where I live and spray them at dark periods. Will lower the distance of the light to. Thank you for the help :)

Hi @SmallTownGrower! I love that strain, it's on my to-grow list 😎 Yes you are right, add some epsom salt or CalMag into your next waterings, and try to stick to the perfect pH for soil, which is around ~6.2. Anything above or below will slow down the way your plant manages nutrient uptakes. Hope this will help, keep us updated and happy growing!

Hey fellow duck grower. Are you sure your Duck gets enough light indoors? Why not outdoors under bright sun, I thought that's the whole idea behind it's stealth.
jyodinath
jyodinathcommented6 years ago
@SmallTownGrower, My girls are doing good. I initially struggled to find any place where it receives sunlight, mostly ended up only getting 3 hours of direct sunlight almost throughout the Veg phase. Only towards the start of the flowering phase, I could move it to a location that receives 8-9 hours of direct sunlight. So my girl ended up being short, but now flowering a bit heavy for her thin stem and bending. She has 2-3 weeks more until harvest 😊

SmallTownGrowercommented6 years ago
@jyodinath, Hello! Still waiting for new light to give my girls, they wouldn't mind getting more for sure. These clones are not that old either but are growing quite good for what they get. Can't grow outside cuz don't have the sun pointed at me where am at. It would only give a couple of hours at the most and only late sun only. I live in an apartment, unfortunately, otherwise growing outside for the stealth would be the best option so I totally agree with you on that aspect. How're your girls doing? :)
