I moved the lights closer my ladies this week as they seemed to not be getting enough light. I also added a small humidifier to the room to help boost the humidity as well. I've been misting the top soil lightly every other day and today (day 9) was the first day these ladies got some water since popping soil. Things seem to be going great so far!
So I had an incident and may have lost two of my girls. 2 girls were growing very slowly and one was flourishing. I thought it might've because my tent was cooler than I liked so I placed a small heater in the tent. I pressed the wrong button however so instead of keeping it a steady temp the heater was just set to on. The heat hit 110 for about 10 minutes before I noticed and by then my plants had serious damage. The white LSD auto seemed unaffected. The white widow max and AK-47 autos however seem to be done for at this point. Is there any way to save these plants or should I just scrap and start over?
The white LSD is prosperous though as we just got our first 5 finger leaf and will be getting her first feeding of nutrients next week.
Under-watering? I water all my plants equally and one seems to be growing steadily and two have stopped. How often should I be watering in smart pots and how much water should I be using each time?
Also is there anyway to save my two heat damaged plants or should I scrap them?
Hi @GanjaGoddess! Roots need to be on a wet/dry cycle to properly develop and spread for water. Too much water make the roots/plant suffocate. Not enough water will make roots dry and die. Regarding waterings, the rule is to never exceed 20% of you pot's capacity: growing in 3gal bags, you should give at max ~0.7gal. Before you water, make sure the medium is almost fully dry, by putting your thumb into the soil, you will then be able to judge if it needs to be watered or not. Now about the burnt leaves, I would not remove them now, they're not fully dead and can still help to handle photosynthesis. Remove them later when you have other big leaves to do this job. Hope this will help, let me know in the comments section if you need any further information, and happy growing! 👊
