Had some issues with the big fan leaves on the lower nodes. They weren’t doing so great, turning brown and brittle so I cut them off today. Hopefully that helps, probably should have done it sooner but I was a little worried I was going to kill it or something. It’s still growing though, lots of new growth and a few branches growing potential bud sites so I think it’s ok. The reason the leaves were dying? Could have been the low humidity. Could have been underwatering (she’s sucking up the water really quickly, needs to be transplanted). Maybe I have the light too close, realized today it’s only 8 inches away, I was just eyeballing it. If you know the proper distance for this Mars Hydro TS1000 LED please comment below. I will be transplanting this week on Thursday when my new Air-pots come. Goals for this week: Figure out exactly how much I should be feeding this thing, it’s possible it needs cal-Mag added to the food? If you know about nutrients please comment below. I am using the General Organics GoBox. Hopefully cutting those leaves will lead to some new growth. I checked out the gross of some of you that have commented. You all are doing awesome I know there is a lot I can learn from this community and appreciate any help you can give. I don’t really have a lot of time for research these days with my work schedule and children and there is a lot of information out there it’s hard to sort out the good stuff. Thanks for stopping by, have a great week!

Grow Questions
FatCobra
FatCobrastarted grow question 4 years ago
Ok, first real issue. The plant today is starting to wilt considerably and the lower leaves have started to turn yellowish green. I just watered it this morning and it’s looking worse than it did earlier. What could be causing this? I haven’t started feeding yet. Soil depleted?
Solved
Leaves. Wilting

Wilting might be due to some water damage, take off the plastic covering and aerate the soil. Water when the top 5cm/2inches are dry with at least 20-30% of the water as runoff. Fertilizing should usually start when the first set of leaves have fully developed (start-mid week 2 from seed normally) so I would start giving her some nutrients! If you're having humidity issues and the humidifier isn't enough then try hanging a warm damp towel in the grow space to try and increase it. Hope this helps! Good luck and happy growing :)

Just to give a bit more info here: I am using FoxFarms Happy Frog soil. I had tried several other plants before this and none of them made it out of the seedling stage. With those failures I was using FoxFarms Ocean Forest soil and so I swapped out the soil just in case that was it and put a ceram wrap covering over the pot to trap moisture in. I don’t know what to do about the humidity when I get out of this propagation stage. So far it’s going great this time around, I will take any tips you got. When to top it, when to start training it, humidity solutions, as you may see in the photo I have some cups and bowls in the tent I fill them with water to try and evaporate some moisture in their, I spray down the walls. Nothings working.

@FatCobra, I had a "portable" one for the 60x60 but every 5 hours I had to put it back in charge ... then I gave up and the humidity adjusts itself when I water, I no longer use the dehumidifier. If the leaves seem dry, I spray a little water with the nebulizer, otherwise don't worry too much. Check maybe in flowering that it does not rise too high to avoid the risk of mold :)

@DreamIT, hey man, thanks for responding. So I looked into humidifiers. The problem I’m having is that my tent is only 2x2x4 even small ultrasound humidifiers seem to be all pretty big and for much larger spaces. The ceram wrap covering is working for now but I’m concerned about what will happen when the plant becomes too big for that.

@FatCobra, Hello. I hope the translation doesn't distort the words too much. The recommended humidity values in the vegetative phase are around 70%, in flowering around 55/60. If you have no way to buy an ultra sound humidifier, wet the soil more often (not with more water, only more often, when you see the surface begin to dry. Glasses of water are also fine, the important thing is that the air is not excessively dry.) I do not know that soil, but in the early stages of life and growth, a soil that is not too fertilized is recommended, otherwise the taproot will "burn" even before it comes out of the seed. I hope I was helpful 😊

How are you finding the MARS lights brother? I'm considering shelling out €400 for the SP3000. It's a lot of money, so I want to be sure they're good

GuerrillaNo_4commented4 years ago
@FatCobra, yeah, I think I'll just bite the bullet and get it. Everyone says they're really good. You're right too, if I buy cheaper lights I'll be unhappy in no time and end up buying it anyway 😂
FatCobra
FatCobracommented4 years ago
@GuerrillaNo_4, the light is working great. I would definitely buy Mars again. When I get some more space I plan on getting a bigger tent and will be getting larger MARS lights at that time probably because now I know it works. I’ve gotten cheap leds before that don’t work it sucks.
