This week I have changed the 400w HPS lights for a 240w Leds, and I have seen great improvements for the rust burn that used to plague me for quite some times seems to have stopped and repair to the parts still viable started, now I know it was due to hight intensity and heat for 12h on those fan leaves that turned them dry and eventually burned them...
I still have to watch out because those Leds are powerful and loaded with Deep red, IR and UV!
They are at 45 cm the closest and 70cm the furthest no bleaching is seen so far, I am keeping a close eye on those leaves tip and if I see bleaching to those I higher up the lights for a while...
I feel like I am dancing around those marvelous plants, sometimes pulling the lights or dimming them, tucking those fan leaves shadowing lower growth whenever I feel they need a break or a hand! Trying to be a cannabis whisperer lol
Added 2 tablespoons of fish blood and bones to top layer with worm castings and bat guano a handful.
Lots of spiky hair on one and the other those are curly.
They look almost the same, lots of trichomes, at least 16% covered and smell kushy and flowery, very nice.
Let's hope the leaves do not get worse and the repair continues, not to forget to offer a prayer to Marie Jane so all goes well! ☺️🌹❤️
Hi again Beauderay,
Less watering with leds, that's what i noticed too. "Ususally" it was once every 3/5 days, with leds it is once a week ( or even 10 days with some of the criticals). Not sure if it's because of the strains grown but it looks like they also require much less nutrients.
Good luck to you with the pests wanting to enjoy your garden 🙏
