This week has been challenging to say the least. I've got my Ph meter at the beginning of the week, checked feeding water, ph 6.8, plain water, ph 6.9, runoff water, ph 6.2, so they all where pretty much in the recommended range. But the Auto Northern Light didn't look better then last week, arguably it look even worst. Looking at the leaves symptoms then I though to be a Calcium deficiency, the nutrients having none of this, so I bought a CaMg solution to supplement a little. After doing more research and trying to figure this out, the only thing that remained was the feeding amount, that I thought was fine. It seems the feeding chart from the manufacturer is way too strong. From looking at other diaries that uses the Atami nutrients, I've seen some of them using even 0.5ml/l, when the feeding chart recommend in the flowering period a 3-4ml/l. So this week conclusion is that the problem most probably is nutrient burn. Fortunately only the Northern Light is looking bad, the Jack Herer has only some burned tips and the Chronic seems unaffected. I'll cut my nutrients quantity for next week and in 1-2 weeks I'll start flushing the Northern Light and Jack Herer, the Auto Chronic being so late I'll continue feeding it separately and I'll probably harvest it at the end of January. Another problem I'm dealing with is the humidity, the weather getting colder and wetter outside I can't just ventilate the room so I had to buy a dehumidifier, yey another 150 bucks, at least I can use it for personal use also, but this budget grow has gotten less of a budget grow. Well the good side is that next time I will be ready with all the necessary stuff and with all this ups and downs I've learned a lot of things. 😅 Besides the problems, the Auto Northern Light and the Auto Jack Herer are getting fatter, they look to be on schedule, so they may be a my gift for Christmas or at least at new years eve. 🙌 The Auto Chronic finally has entered the flowering stage, started stretching and making pistils. I sure am glad that I kept it after the problems at the beginning. 😇

Unfortunately I don't have a ph meter, so my best guess is one or more of these problems: nutrient lockout, ph imbalance or nutrient burn. The first 3 photos are from an Auto Northern Light and the last 2 are from an Auto Jack Herer.

A ph meter is an absolute must have. Without knowing the ph its all a giant gamble, you have no way of tracking ph shift, and thus have no way to accurately adjust ph. You can get a good meter on amazon for about 45 bucks. Happy growing.

Hey @TheNoobDude I have 3 * 23W (2700K) + 2 * 40W (2700K) + 2 * 40W (6500K) + 2 * 20W (6500K) home LED bulbs with actual consumption of 200W. I am growing 3 plants with them. Are these enough or I need more bulbs?

@rambo_97, yeah, should be enough. I stopped posting here, but last time I used only 10x13W LED bulbs (130W total) for 2 plants and did better then CFLs
