Your CXB Led might be too powerful, this is why the plants are smaller, they get miniaturized , back up the ramp further up and they will start to grow again. Ho, by the way, watering your plants every day isn’t really recommended in soil, you shall let the soil dry just a bit between watering. Hopefully for you your diary is accurate and makes it easier to spot what’s going wrong. Happy Growing 😉

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, Hi! I'm just starting with cxb 3095 3500k. Could you please recomend me a propper distance between my cobs and my plants?

Daboutcommented7 years ago

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, Its coco, a soiless mix so yes you should be watering each day. Coco and a dripper system works wonders. Also coco shouldn't dry out.

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, It is so much better! The plants under the COBs are so compact, it's so satisfying. Maybe it's just my untrained eye, but I counted 25+ colas on just one plant under the COBs that are exposed to light and can shoot up nicely. Maybe I'm just getting too excited 😬😄

A couple of questions: 1. Is that plain coco, or a mixture of coco / perlite ? 2. How much run off are you allowing each time? 3. What is the pH and EC of the run off? 4. What water source are you using? And what is it's EC? 5. That temperature you post is that an average or is it taken at canopy level?

@@ThatGuyWhoFishes, before adding more, flush, meassure runoff EC and dial backup the feeding to 1.0 EC

@@Athos, Thank you so much for your help. I have raised the COBs to 50cm above the plants. Hopefully that makes a nice difference. Will also move the thermo to canopy height. I think the one plant has a Mag deficiency since all the other plants I have seen online, show the exact same symptoms. The yellowing and rusty spots. I will try some epsom salts and hopefully will take care of the problem. Thank you so much! 😁

Athoscommented7 years ago

@@@ThatGuyWhoFishes,ok, so it's very likely, as I posted as an answer, heat stress with salt build up, flush and please take the EC of the runoff) and increase light distance or increase your exhaust power. Now that I think about it, you added a powerful light worth 800 watts, without considering that you had to exhaust the added heat.

Keep in mind that the difference between ground level and canopy temperature can be quite high, in my case up to 9°C (16F)

You are juggling a lot plates! I'd like to see this grow through to the end. I'll following along. There is a lot of knowledge out there. I'm sure any questions you might have can be answered. I'll give you bad advice if you need it.

I feel your pain on the humidity issues. Even though it was really rough to afford, I spent $300 on a 317 watt, 400 sq foot dehumidifier. Has been much better since. Either way your yield should be really really good and I am looking forward to seeing you have a happy harvest =)

@@ThatGuyWhoFishes, TBH I'm an intermediate-at-best grower, and it's putting these things into words like this that shores up all of my beginner skills. Remember that when you're intermediate and want to improve =) The trick is being able to curate who to read and not (Yes: Grow Weed Easy No: Any Forum). Just keep on reading. Then when youre looking at your grow, trying to figure out whats causing what, how to improve etc, you have a basic toolkit for interpretation.

Hey dude, really nice setup and you're doing great fyft. All I would say if you want to have the canopy flat as possible you have to keep the main stem tied lower than the next highest stretching branch this will maintain the even growth of the other branches.✌️🏻️

@@ThatGuyWhoFishes, When LSTing, I use forceps (hemostat), onto the tips of which I shrunk electrical wrap. The wrap cushions the branches from the serrated teeth. Needle nose pliers work also. Gently squeeze where you want to bend and release, then rotate the clamp 90o and give another gentle squeeze. The branch should droop easily.

i had RH issues too up to 79%. i bit the bullet and got a dehumidifier no problems now 40-50-60% whatever i want. if you get one try and get one with a drainage hose unless you want to forever be emptying the tank. best of luck they look awesome👍

@CapitanKush, Yes thankfully I managed to get one with a drainage hose but it was slightly too late for the one plant. Had to chop down about 5 colas so far. Hopefully no more. I really need these girls to ready up to harvest so I don't stress out even more 😬

JUNGLE_B4RNScommentedweek 157 years ago

When you grow big crops , you must have a dehumidifier with a kompressor and you must be able to keep RH around 35-40%. By the end of flowering I pour out about 15l every day from the 2 dehumidifier.

@@ThatGuyWhoFishes,yeah I know what it is and I know what’s your feeling. As I said raise your pH to 7.8 first. Then you can spread your buds delicately to check the inside and to let the air coming inside. You can try to plug off the lil sugar leaves, if it plugs off easily ain’t no good, check the lil stem on that sugar leaves if it isn’t rotten. If the sugar leaves on the buds hold thighs it’s good , it means it isn’t rotten inside the bud.

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, That's a hell of a lot of water! I'm just stressing so much right now. Got the dehumidifier running 24/7, but I really hope that it isn't too late and the rot hasn't started from the inside already. Very stressed😞

There is no point to me answering your question as Athos hit on all of the points I would have pointed out the lights too close over heating the leaf tissue(like a magnifying glass) causing too many nutes to be drawn up the plant giving you burn symptoms.
