First Grow

Plants are growing slowly and showing signs of stress still. Curled leaves and purplish stems/stalks. I determined it was a combination of light stress and high pH in the medium. Watered mostly with just CalMag solution this week including a heavy watering/flush to try to get the pH down and lower the output PPMs in the runoff which were very high. Also raised the LEDs to be more in line with the manufacturer recommendations, was cheating them too close. Overall i think ive addressed the main issues now but unfortunately feel the plants are now 3-5 days behind where i think they should be. But growth has quickened by the end of the week so hopefully we're getting back on track.
