Exhale Homegrown CO2 bag placed just above plants. Since CO2 is heavier than air this will hopefully fall to the plants and circulate with the help of my two fans. Not sure if I have enough watts to truly be effective, but worth a shot!
First full pot watering occurred on 11/18 (~40 ozs 7ph water/plant). Waiting for plants to droop some before I water again in hopes that the moisture deeper in the pots will help drive root growth as they search deeper and wider for water.
Had noticed light rust spots early last week on my biggest girl. At the end of week two they became much more prevalent. Did some research and believe it to be a calcium deficiency. Noticed it starting on my second biggest and decided to treat all with some CalMag. The biggest girl was watered (~1/2 gallon) with solely CalMag and ph neutral RO water. The other three were heavily watered with ph7 RO water and then each given the remainder of my 1/2 gallon of CalMag and ph7 RO water. Hopefully this helps.
Do you all think I properly diagnosed the problem as a calcium deficiency? I am only on day 14 in the picture showing the large rust spots and feel like I have had some phenomenal early growth. My soil has nutrients so I didn't plan on giving my first actual nutes til day 21.
Your leaves look to me as though they have been burnt by getting the leaves wet and then sitting under your lights for a while, or even damage from hitting the side of the pot when your fan is blowing. Calcium is only needed in very small amounts at this age/size and if as you say your soil is well prepared, there should be enough calcium in it already. One other thing, as a personal suggestion, I would recommend that next grow, fill your pots up to the top. The lower branches will get more light while they are forming and your plants will have more room to grow roots.
After a while, the soil usually settles down and compacts a bit, so your plants will have even less room to grow than they do now. With full pots and extra/more soil, your plants will also have more access to nutrients, requiring less frequent feeding with fertilizers. Also, even though you are using the "air" pots, your plants can still get root bound, therefore the more soil that is in the pots, the less likely that is going to occur as soon. Remember, healthy roots = happy plants!
Hope this helps.... Organoman.
