Starting off week 2 pretty well after a shaky few days. I’m not grasping this germination thing so I go right to soil A last time I germinated, the root tap got stuck in the paper towel.
Why are is she look like she’s in a pot on the floor?
I have a tent in flowering cycle with 12/12, so I take the 2 plants I’m journaling and put them under a 50 watt full Spectrum light overnight, back in the tent in the morning. It’s a process.
So the seedling is just starting to pop - I’m happy that in did the transplant as the soil in the germination cup was a little clumpier than I thought. I kept spraying PH’d water any time I could as the soil would dry crack up, leaving the seedling on unstable ground.
I’m on 24 hours of light, fairly close. Seems to be responding well to the right proximity so far but I think it may be related to the fact that in the tent, she’s the farthest from the light.
Also got a new light Mars Hydro 300w. Returned the Philzon 600w, was not up to the task.
Mars seems nominally better, but think I may get a COB.
Why are leaves yellowing so fast? See aug 2 photo
Suspected nitrogen deficiency / overwater / light burn
-Grapefruit auto seed 3 weeks
-Recently transplanted into smart pot
-mist with hydrogen peroxide (mold scare)
-Epsom salts added to soil
-2-0-0 nute in 6.5 ph water
Hey again Vic. You can rule out overwatering because the first sign would be droopy leaves. And as far as misting plants I avoid it like the plague! Lol I just don't think it is worth the risks of issues that can come along with it. If you do then never do it with the lights on because the droplets can magnify the light and burn/ bleach the plants. Finally the only benefit of Epsom salt is the magnesium but salt is pretty much the biggest enemy your roots have to begin with when using chemical fertilizers. Most all the nutrients come in salt form. Too much salt locks out nutrients to the roots. That is what is going on here the nitrogen deficiency you are seeing is from lockout because you are giving her plenty of nitrogen. I would flush her out with plain pH water and then place a fan towards the pot do it will dry out faster and you don't end up with overwatering issues. I would give plain water the next few feedings and hopefully she will pull out of it. Depending on how much salt is in there it might be hard to recover unfortunately. Sorry for the bad news but hopefully it gets you headed in the right direction. Good luck
