FrankCastle First time grower. Using Mother Earth's 70/30 coco/perlite. 800w LED COB. 4x4x6.6 mylar tent+inline fan+carbon air filter+2 small fans. Noticing some stress which I was struggling to diagnose. I believe there is some leaf edge canoeing/cupping which seems to be a result of overwatering. I was watering 1.5x a day fully saturating medium and because of high humidity inside the tent I believe the medium could never properly dry out. Not watering until top of coco is somewhat dry from here on out. Strawberry Nuggets sprouted 7/7. DG and SS sprouted 7/8. Currently Day 10/9. Don't mind the two basil plants.

FrankCastle As a newbie, diagnosing issues is difficult when there are several variables. I aerated my pots several times, watered less and it seems like growth slowed. It's possible root stress may not have been the problem for leaf cupping. I had lights 26" from plants which is farther than manufacturer recommendation. I just raised to 39". Starting to water more frequently. This first diary is a bit unorganized. My next grow will be more structured as I am still learning.

FrankCastle This is day 22 for SN and day 21 for the rest. Lights have been between 25 and 28 inches as I experiment with troubleshooting the leaf cupping. Learned a lot by making mistakes.

FrankCastle Day 35 SN. Day 34 all others. Some may be flowering. Biggest struggle this grow was upward leaf cup. Think it was light intensity from this chinese LED COB. Got worse when lowered. Two plants have yellowing intervening that matches mag def. Could be pH also. Just realized calmag should be 5mL coco 2mL soil so my dose has been low. Gradually transplanting 1gal to 3gal. Having difficulty lowering humidity below 62. Normal temp/rh is 79/64 when I run dehumidifier it goes eventually to 69/70.. kind of confusing. If I blow hot air in room i can get it to 85/55 but not sure if 85 temp is a good trade off. Did some LST, made me nervous, but little leaves underneath are exposed and growing.
