Can too much light in Veg cause EC to skyrocket?
ZhugeTsukistarted grow question 4 years ago
Hello everyone, I have 4 plants in a 3x3 area under three of these lights - https://amzn.to/2MhseVH
360w all together which is what I expected to use during flower, I didnt realise that you dont need to use as much during veg, all plants have had to be flushed with EC's at 10

Looks like you already did what you need to do, flush. Looks like overfeed or lockout starting from salts building. The longer plants are in veg the more problems can arise. Doesn't look like to much light, I run 2000 watts HID lighting in late veg and plants do amazing., no I'll effects. Just great big buds when they start flowering. Cheers

Hi there!
If the ec of the run off is really high then it is not because of the lights but its strain related. every plant neeeds different amount of nutes and the light intenisty has some role in this but still if the ec is 10 you arer just giving them way too much nutes.
Fort example potassium (K) is needed more when there is less light and needed slightly ness when there is more light etc. but still the lights dont play that big role in this so ease up on your nutes!

raise lights during stretch?Should I raise the lights during flower stretch to maintain the same distance from light source to canopy? I notice that my plants continue to get taller than most. I know the stretch is natural, but I'm wondering if constantly raising the lights with growth is the right approachWeek 12

Brown spots on leavesWhat seems to be the problem with my plant? The old leaves get brown spots whereas the newer ones have yellow edges. Is it a pH issue?
Is there a fix to this?
I grow in soil and the plant is 4-5 weeks old.
Thanks for help!

Contemplating putting 2 plants outside. I have 8 in a 3x3 with Mars hydro tsw2000. It’s pretty tight in there. What do you guys think? Is 8 too many for the size and light? Or should I just leave them as is? I think the the pots are 3 possibly 5 gallon.

How to grow Jack Herer and Power Plant strainsHey growmies, I’ve started two Jack Herer fems and a Power Plant fem on my 3-D’s diary. I’ve read JH can be a mofo and should be grown on a 12/12 light cycle from seed. I read the same for PP also. Is this true???? I’m trying to maximize yield. Thoughts please… 🤯Setup. Lighting

Add CalMag or Manganese? Still slightly discolored and veiny leaves on week 6Calcium or Manganese deficiency? Last week had what I thought was early calcium deficiency. Gave it a dose of CalMag but now not sure if it’s still Calcium or possibly Manganese.
I do mean manganese but I realize it could be a CalMag or Manganese deficiency as well.
