First ever grow. Had some bleached leafs and stunted growth from dialing in new LED . Spider Farmer-4000. 450watt . Took me a little longer than expected. Co2 bag is really starting to turn white now. Plants are smelling amazing.

Hello growers, I Have a couple northern light autos and there 32 days from seed. There starting to show brown orange hairs at the bud sites. Is this anything to be concerned about? The environment seems very comfortable

Hi Using 400 watts on those girsl is very heavy in that distance. Girls are growing dense with short internode. My tip to you rise your light until shes bigger. That the pistils already discolor, is no problem for the plant. I would say stop trining on her for 14 days rise the light and just let her grow....she looks a little stressed and fuzzy

Paused on the LST for a few days, lightened feedings, and seen great improvement. Catching onto "Less is More" Defoliation of some lower fan leaves and leaf stripped here and there. Day 42 noticed main colas look very different from each other. NL#1 looks great, cant say the same for NL#2&3 feed all the same, rotate in tent same. ? Any ideas would be appreciated

Beginning of the week Defoliation of 2/3 of the NL Autos. May have waited longer than prime window but wanted to see first hand which branches would prioritize the Nutes.

Starting the week off with LST. Last tie down for these girls @ day 50. Increase the P-K with feeds. Anticipating slower vertical growth, and then I'll lower the SpiderFarmer-4000. Day 51 final lower fan leaf defoliation. End of week ran into magnesium toxicity locking out potassium and calcium, flushed and feed with 1/2 strength feeding. No more cal mag
