WEEK 2
****DAY 8: 9/4/18****
I have adjusted the distance between the top of the plant and light to 33 inches. I will be introducing nutrients from this week, as it is nearly 1 week since this little guy sprouted. Nutrients will be at at 1/4 strength then I will work up to 1/2 strength by next week.
I will be using Green Planets - Medi one, Liquid Weight, Massive & Finisher, I will be nutrient feeding every other day with just plain PH 5.8 watering in between.
Around 4 cm in height right now.
Watering - 10am, 3pm, 8pm & midnight, 250 - 300 ml
Temps - 20'c - 24'c
Humidity - 60% - 70%
****DAY 9: 10/4/18****
10pm - I have lowered lights again to 31 inches away from top of plant.
****DAY 10: 11/4/18****
My watering schedule is now ONCE a day at 10am for the next few days, I will do a Nutrient feed every other day.
10am- 1st nutrient feeding of MEDI ONE on its own at 0.6ml in 500ml of water ph 5.8
****DAY 11: 12/4/18****
I will now be watering 1 Litre of water ONCE per day at 10am for the rest of this week.
10AM- 1 LITRE of Plain PH 5.8 water.
Temps 20-23'c
Humidity - 60-65%
10PM - Now because I am watering just once a day and I have put 4 cheap disposable dehumidifiers and 1 Unibond dehumidifier in the tent it has brought the humidity down to
50-58%, very cheap method of mine to get the humidity down a little and they don't take up much space.
****DAY 12: 13/04/18****
10AM - NUTRIENT FEED: 1.2ML OF MEDI ONE & 0.6ML OF LIQUID WEIGHT in 1 litre of water, ph 5.8
Today I have LOWERED the LIGHTS to 28 inches away from the top of the plant.
Temps 20 - 23'c
Humidity 50 - 58%
****DAY 13: 14/4/18****
10AM - PLAIN PH 5.8 WATER - 1 LITRE
****DAY 14: 15/4/18****
10AM - NUTRIENT FEED - MEDI ONE 1.2ML & LIQUID WEIGHT 0.6ML - 1 LITRE OF PH 5.8 WATER
*****************END OF WEEK ROUND UP***************
I have started the nutrient feeding this week and the she is liking it, there has been a lot of growth since starting nutrients. This week I changed my watering schedule because I believe that I may have been watering a little too frequently and this was making the humidity in the tent rise up to 74%, I now water ONCE a day in the morning at 10AM and I have also added a cheap UNIBOND Dehumidifier and 4 small disposable dehumidifiers, by doing this my levels are now around 50 - 55%.
Next week I will be taking the MEDI ONE dosage up from 1.2ml p/litre to 1.5ml p/litre and by the end of next week I hope to have the dosage at 2ml p/litre. The Liquid weight dosage will remain the same for now.
Some of the tips of my plants leaves are a lighter shade of green than the rest of the leaf, what could this be?.
I have raised light back up a few inches from 27 in to 30 inches in case it is light bleaching.
Hi,
I can see what you're talking about, its only ever so slightly. Looks like the start of nutrient burn, best way to combat the problem is to feed your plants plain pH'd water for the next feed or two. Should see her new growth coming out healthier and greener if sorted early on. Hope this helps.
I don’t see it in any of the pics, but burnt tips is typically an indication of nutrient burn. You might want to consider backing down a little on your nutrient levels.
@DudeGrowsWeed thanks for the response. I just put up a close up pic.
I also thought it could be nute burn but when I looked back through pics I could see that even before I added nutes there was a lighter shade of green on 1 or 2 leaves. It is only on new growth leaves on the highest points. I will ease off the nutes a little and see what happens.
@Al_Green, I think thats super mild nutrient burn. Light burn typically causes the tips to curl up and the leaves overall to start taking a taco'ish shape (edges curling). But if you're worried about light burn you could also try raising the light a few inches. Good luck!
