I think I'm gonna call it quits with at least plant #2. I noticed a manganese deficiency starting on the bottom leaves of both plants. I changed and re-nuted the water. Got the pH down to 5.7-6.0 but there is too much struggle for it to be worth it. Plant #2 looks just sad and #1 is trying her best to hang in there.
But what can you do. It's my first time doing hydro with autos. They would've bounced back if they were photo periods.
Update: End of week 5 & somehow these girls are still alive and flowering. I think this diary is just an experiment to see what's gonna happen.
@Sweet_Seeds,
They're currently under a 1000w LED dull spec. I have the light at 30inches away bc it was causing the leaves to burn. I didnt have it during the veg cycle, which is why they are so small. Also it was thought balancing the pH. Thanks for the advice! ๐
Following ๐ฝIve been having some slow root growth with my pair of DD autos as well ( a bit over 3 weeks in) First time grow here though so im sure ive tripped over several factors resulting in some stunted gals. Hoping to start adding some light nutes with the next watering though and see some turn around
Best wishes on your grow โ๏ธ
@Shakedown92,
Ey'
Ya I was expecting a much better grow, but it turns out my pH was to low and the reservoir water was too low to promote healthy root growth. I was hoping the new light and cleaning/sanitizing the reservoir would work and it did. They're both flowering now.
Hope you figure out what's wrong.
Good luck! ๐ฝโ๏ธ๐พ
