I've been top dressing and making tea since these 3 -10 gal. Bags after initial reamending for about one month. Also one more bag that's of all new been cooking for two months with a larger variety of amendments. They all have Wiggler's and cover crop. I've decided to try using bokashi only for top dressing along with compost tea,and Mammoth p for watering with one fresh water every ten days. I've never started and finished in the same bag so this is a first. I have misting twice a day the first week. I have a new light similar to hlg qb's by (Hygrow lighting) it's a 600 rspec and dimmable. I ran at 150 umols until plants came up and turned them up to 300 umols and just seeing how they handle that. Using exhale bags they do seem to make a difference.

Grow Questions
Cannaterplovastarted grow question 5 years ago
8 day old seedlings in living soil. They have little white spots on their first set of leaves. Any ideas of what could be going on? All 4 seedlings have spots. I treated them with Mammoth bio-control.

This looks like little burn spots. Are you misting them with the lights on? Those LEDs put out a crazy amount of power and they look pretty close to the plants. I run my LEDs full power but always keep them at least 36 inches from the plants. If you mist them or spill nutrients on them then the light magnifies the droplets and can burn the plants. I am personally anti-foliar feeding. There really isn't much benefit of spraying your plants as long as you have good quality nutrients and an adequate grow medium. The roots do a great job if they are healthy. Raising your lights higher, feeding your roots properly, and making sure you are in range on pH will improve the happiness of your plants 100%. I would also check the plants closely for tiny insect pest with a magnifying glass just to be on the safe side. They usually attack the lower side of the leaves. Little bugs can cause similar damage. Good luck with your grow!

Best of luck with your girls.
I have to agree with green machine and I have experienced both in my grows:
-foliar feeding/misting with the lights on is a no no.
-LEDs to close causing a burn that looks like a magnesium deficiency or pH lockout.

@PotCasso, I have since stopped misting,but did find eggs on the back of the leaves. I took action and they seem to be growing and I'm not seeing anymore eggs on the back of the leaves. Day 15 now. Im giving them to the end of the week to see if they take off if not I'll start over. Already have Sour D photoperiod started. Digging all the input !! Ty !!

Yo, if you're using fox farm ocean forest those mites youre trying to kill could be the good ones . Predator mites! Let em thrive if this the case. I thought i had a mite problem but I actually had hypoaspis miles mites. They love chowing on dead organic matter as well as fungus gnats and thrip and any other problem critters. Rule of thumb if they move fast, they're good mites. If they move slowly they're the bad ones.... Put it like this, if you have to stare to see if it moves , torch your girls unfortunately.

@Lucifers_Nursery,Hey thanks for the advice. I thought I had predator mites, this is my own soil,and I've added a variety pack of predator mites to my worm beds. I know I have hypoaspis mile mites, I've seen some of a couple of kind of mites in the worm beds. I did have blisters on the leaves and translucent eggs on the back of the leaves so whatever predators I had isn't there now. I don't know anything about growing Autos, but I'll give them another week to see if they start growing,if not I'll not waste my time on stunted plants. Make sure my IPM is solid before I use those bags again. I'll take all the advice I can get, so thank you.
