Big stretch this past week. Almost double the size since flip 18 days ago. Trying to keep an even canopy and give enough space around each pot. The plants grew to be about 14 inches away from the light and I was gone for the weekend and I think the plants right under the light got a little burnt as the leaves are all lighter. Lights at 22 inches rn and I figured they could grow into that.
Hello my Fellow gardener . I see you used peat pots then cloth pots . I see your lamp is very close your temp to high and humidity as low as you would want it in last weeks of bud . I don't think you over watered maybe the mix was to strong but your plants didn't stretch and stunted due to to much blue light . you need to move the light away during these starting phase and turn it way down you can tell due to the healthy amount of nodding your plants have this is due to blue light or to much . also the plants would like double the humidity at the start . the peat pots if not kept wet will inhibit your root growth until they break down some due to high heat and dry pots at the start your roots would not have broken out until you transplanted them to the cloth and the core is kept wet . as long as you don't leave the cloth pots in water you pretty much can not over water them . the more often you water the lower strength food you will want to use . and yes you will want to be careful about light reflecting down your ducts .
@Mongler1187,
Thanks for the info & advice, man. I had a pos humidifier when I started, now I have a good one to regulate that. I'm using an air cooled hood with a 600 w mh and their usually at 16-20 inches away. That should be fine right? Are you saying at the end of flower I should have the light at least 20+ inches?
I have a similar issue with overwatering. After being very hands off for the last week and letting the soil get bone dry, Iโm seeing rapid growth.
What light and what kind of space are you using?
