This week was a bit disappointing and stressful. The plants went from relatively green and healthy looking to having a large portion of leaves with brown discolored edges and distorted leaves in only 7 days. One thing I need to stop doing is misting my plants to boost humidity. It seems to be causing more spots or problems on top of everything else, either because of chlorine or spraying with lights on. I've had a bad habit of recycling cups to use as for my seedlings. I've been told before that it can cause algae to grow but I had never seen it this bad. From now on I'll cover the outside somehow so the roots aren't getting that light exposure. Plant B also seemed a bit root bound at the bottom, so I guess I let it stay in the cup a little too long to cause that circular root ball. I decided to water that plant with a small dose of hydrogen peroxide water to attempt to kill off some of the algae and give extra oxygen...I've heard that can work. The next day the cup still had algae but much less than before. I decided to test the Biotabs products on plant B. They claim the plants won't need ph'd water just plain tap water and that sounded right up my alley PH'ing is one of my least favorite things. Unfortunately after i had started preparing my pot i noticed the box did not contain a crucial piece, the "orgatrex" which they call their "liquid organic fertilizer ". I had already began to measure and add parts to my soil so I decided to continue in the hope of hearing from Biotabs, but no luck there, so we're winging part of this grow.🤗 Plant A was planted into fox farms happy frog soil with a bit if Xtreme Mykos. I hope the plants leaves will bounce back into green here with the new pots and available nutrients. I'll continue to ph for plant A. ✌️

Something wrong when I read to get them acclimated to the intensity... it doesn’t work like this my friend 😊 You must acclimate your light to the size of your plant if I can say this like that lol 😂 Google this word : Photoinhibition And you will understand how the lights works in the photosynthesis equation 😉

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, ok, i like that, thanks for breaking it down for me... i need that right now . So I had the lead grower of a cultivation place here in town reach out to me and he was mentioning doing some studies with led's and finding that their nutritional requirements when up for magnesium calcium and potassium… I don't know if it's true for all plants, But the Mephisto that I just grew their nutrient requirements definitely went up it seemed like after going in to the tent. 🤔

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, sorry B i probably sound like a grumpy twat, I have a cold and my brains not operating on full batteries lol

@Experimentgreen, yes too much light can damage your plant. Yes adjust the light height or intensity accordingly. The connection is simple, magnesium is the central molecule in the chlorophyll ion and gets used up during the photosynthesis process that is powered by the light 😉

Hey you! Long time and stumbled on to this. Tough deal u Got here but sounds like you’ve already identified your issues. Root binding and/or algae growth on an Auto is never a good thing so def. could still be creating issues. That said and IMO - I think you’re problem could actually be. A lack of the proper nutes at the right time. Biotabs are time released nutes and really should already have 5 weeks in the medium when you’re plant hits this stage of growth. I noticed that same issue trying to add biotabs late on some purple haze I just harvested - had to correct it with a synthetic in order to rectify it and get the plant some much needed nitrogen (which is what you need right now if this isn’t a root issue). This is why I prefer to start autos directly in final containers now - so finicky sometimes. I’m running a biotabs grow now too so def. worth a follow dude - taggn along for the ride and hope alls well👍😎🤘

@Experimentgreen, LOL! I wasn’t gonna mention it but I noticed that too. I got the silica as well and the manual that came in the package leaves out the orgatrex but the one online includes it??? I guess the silica is swapped in its place or something. The only other mention of orgatrex in the manual is for brewing compost tea.🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

@TheBudWhisperer, instead of the orgatrex i ended up getting a silica type product..which is great silicas an important thing but i thought it said to water with the orgatrex like the 3rd week after planting? I looked up the english manual on their website..and I'm reading soak initial pot with orgatrex and bactrex and then again at week 5. Hmm i can't find the paperwork that came in the box.

@Experimentgreen, lol Cheers! After Gettn ripped last year I’m practically holding my breath until the day they come down. 🤞🤞🤞 for uneventful next week until chop

Lack of nitrogen

@Bakeryguy420, I have a bad habit of thinking that fresh soil has more nutrients than it actually does...same with water, I always assumed that tap water had enough calmag and it definitely does not...at least not here anyway.✌️

I had same thing with certain strains from fast buds blackberry/crystal meth/lsd they had defects I tend to stick to the green strains now for higher quality and bigger yeilds although currently I have 10 pink lemonade that I hope dont let me down 😑😂
