Dots have gotten a bit worst for one of the plants but the rest seem OK. Maybe cold temp as its snowing here and room is about 15 to 22 degrees Celsius around here.
Its definately PH and Overwatering, dont worry about it, they are going to bouce back, just use a lot less than 1L when they are this small and i also would recommend starting them on smaller pots (you want to water more frequently with less, with that setup you have you could water once every 2 weeks).
Hope it helps (:
The yellow spots that were seen last week have multiplied and started to appear on newer leaves. I should mention my tap water E.C is 0.8 so quite high. I still however added calmag this weel at it seems to look like a magnesium deficiency. Are they to young for one though?
Ph feeding at 6.2 today see if that helps. Also the pictures dont show it very well but the top of some stems are purple. I read that this could be a magnesium defeciency???

Hi there fellow Grower, this is calcium deficiency plane and simple. This deficiency can be caused by excess or miss of something. I had that with my NL if you have the curiosity is possible to see one with severe simptomes in my diaryes.
Follow a few ideas:
0-always flush the coco before use, specially the brick ones and cheap unbranded. That removes the salts that might be there... You can still flush in any case just be carefull not to overwater the plants.
1- use some bennies if you have acess, Rechare is an example i know it works very well and covers many areas os issues like PH and nute Locks, the issue you have for instance, that will regulate vell your root zone so it can absorb well and is always estimulated. You can pair that with the cannazym, if you wish no woryes.
3-Keep the base nute and cut the boosters like Rhizotonic till the spotting stops, usually you aim for half of the schedule suggests and up slowly feeling the plant. I cant comment specifically on the Canna line. Also Make sure you are not aplying cal mag on every water if you use tap water, generaly one a week is enought to correct deficiencies.
4-use good watering habits, at the point you are you can water the base of the plant and a bit around, no need to soak the hole medium, it will take a lot to dry when its soaked and the plant ant brearh well or starts to sufocate.
When is time to water you can feel the vase weight and the top os the soil sticking to the seccond knukle to see if is moist!
5-Check the runoff and see the EC that is coming out and PH, like that you will have an idea of what is in it.
Good luck, happy growing!
Hey guys. Pica are from day 27! Did a bit of lst on them. First grow so first try LST aswell. Any advice is much appreciated. Are they 2 small for there age? And LED with veg and bloom switch, should i turn bloom on at the bloom stage or all the way through??as without bloom it pulls about 160W not 255W
Well ive upped the nutrients to 1.2 ml/l of A and B. As you can see im a bit worries about how small they are for their age. This is my first grow however and temps ans hunidity etc have been far from perfect. I think my highest temp to date was 22 degrees celcuis. I think this and the low light watts may have caused my dwarf plants. I flipped the bloom switch on today hoping the extra watts might boost growth. Any way we live and we learn, next round ill do better :))

So they've shot up a bit since last week. Ive now installed a inkbird temperature controller with a 1000w fan heater to regulate the temperature. The issue with this is that it does not allow me to lower the temperature when the light are off, unless i plug it in to the same timer as the lights and that would mean the temps would drop more than they should so ive just let the temps stay at about 25 celcius. Still no sign of flowering that im aware of. But quite happy so far with theese two guys, looking foward to seeing some buds.
The plants have now started to flower and exploded with some more growth. Ive added canna boost now amd increased the dosage of A and B until growth slows down. Looks like the one on the left might take a bit longer to finish. We'll see. Im not goint to do any more training for now other than defolliating. The next week ill trim back any grpwth underneath that i dont think will give me any decent buds.
Peace

Added a scrog today, plants looking healthy. Ill be looking foward to see how they react being autoflowers. Bat guano also added to the coco as a top layer and mixed in about an inch. Upped the cannaboost and cannazym. Next week probably be adding PK 13/14
This week, as you can all see, my two girls have recoverd quite nicely from the scrog. Ive now added pk13/14. Fisrt dosage was of 10ml/10l and second one was 15ml/10l.
The light are much closer than what viparspectra recomend. But the plants seem to be ok with it. The girls are also strating to get propper sticky now aswell as smelly.
All looking good, I was hoping that the buds would get a bit fatter, but for the amount of light that I've got I'm starting to guess they wont get to the size of a pint glass hehe. Non the less I'm happy with what I've achieved this first grow, still 2 or 3 weeks on thees girls I'm assuming. Reduced the PK 13/14 to 5ml/10l for on last feeding with it. The girls are taking a lot longer than expected as they was meant to be 9-10 weeks long but i don't they will be that short now haha.
Peace.

The buds have gotten a bit fatter since last week 😼Im very happy so far. I did over feed them a bit a couple of days ago, probably for the excess PK13/14. You can see some of the leaves have burnt tips. Well now ive ran out of CANNABOOST and decided to replice it with Canadian Xpress Headmasta, ive read great things about this booster and its also much cheaper :))
Peace
This weekd most some more orange appears on the buds as they get ready for harvest. Im going to start flushing them next week for 1 week before I harvest. They seem to have about 30 or 40% orange hairs on the buds so i hope i time it good. I will update next week. Peace
Just flushing the girls this week, waiting for most trichomes to go cloudy instead of clear. Ive now switched the lights off for 36/48 hours and will harvest in the next couple of days :))
So all in all the strain took 98 from seed.
It was easy to grow and forgiving aswell. The buds smells super sweet and are quite fluffy like a true sativa!
Hi, don't panic. We can chat here about your issues. Let me ask a few questions. Have you watered the whole of the coco medium with lots of run off? Before you ever put the seed in you're best to water the soil/coco well. This prevents air pockets or clumps of medium that can cause roots to dry. You can develop little spots like this. On the other hand there is leaf septoria which cannabis is susceptible to, don't panic too much✌️🏻️
Whatever it is, It doesn't look to be effecting much of the leaf.
Have you ph'd your water before or after addin the nutrients (I know this may sound stupid but it happens)?
You've put your ppm as 650000 that can't be right, cannabis can only handle 1400...
How cold is it lights on lights off? Do you have the pot touching concrete floor, put some cardboard under your tent if where you live is cold and your not growing in you house.. Let me know✌️🏻️
@ThePotFactory, even if you're within the 5.6-6.2 range too big of differences seem to give yellow ph "fluctuation" spots, I try to aim for flat 5.8 +- 0.1 which seems to alleviate when i get it
@PharmaZ, Hello and thankyou. My EC is about 1.3 after all th nutes. Ptoblem is that my tap water is a massive 0.8 to begin with. And no i didnt draim the coco before i started. I shall do this next time though.
Also i should mention the parts of the stems exposed to light are turning purple whilst th bottom ia still green. Ive read this could be a magnesium deffieciency. Usually ph is around 5.5 to 6.2
Thank you :)
Nice jungle sir! Trust me they still have weeks to grow in volume and density. You should be very happy. Might want to make sure the middle is getting good airflow, depending on your fans etc you might want to defoliate or not. As long as the temperature and humidity stay down in the right range, they should really yield.
@Jaindoh, I have now opted to go for Headmasta by Canadian Xpress. Heard alot of good things about it and at only £17 a litre so yeah. Also its feeding ratio is only 1ml/l so this could save me quite a bit. I will start adding this today and see how as it goes as ive now ran out of cannaboost!
Peace
@ThePotFactory, Ironically, this is my question precisely. A lot of things I've seen about whether Canna Boost and PK13/14 were worth it -- taken with a grain of salt -- had to do with how strong your lights are.
Since I can't afford it, yet, and my strongest tent is 2x200w, it remains a mystery to me.
@Jaindoh,thank you Jon Do for your advice through out my diary. Ive used your adive about keeping my ph stable and since then ive added a heater. And seem to have had no problems. I was wondering if you use any bloom booster? Ive just finished my Canna Boost and im probably going to replace it with some other type of less expensive one.
Regards
Charlie
@XRaynexGillardX, Hello. At the time i had 1 x 600W Viperspectra LED light. (Reflector series. Actuall power 269W)
It has a veg and bloom switch on the light. Ive now bought a second one. Follow my latest grow two see what 2 of lights can do.
Peace
