Should I be worried about my plants looking so droopy after dark period?
ElectricWizzerstarted grow question 5 years ago
I am running 20/4, after about 18 hours the leaves stop praying, gradually start to droop until it's worst point through dark period. When lights come on, I water them, within an hour they perk up. Humidity drifts up around 10% during this time also and temps down 6-8 degrees F.

It is the breathing cycle of the plant, completely normal. Plants have an internal clock that adjusts to the periods of light and dark. 2-3 hours before the lights go out, the leaves go down, and then get up completely 1-2 hours after the first lights. You have to worry if you see them constantly lowered, in this case it can be an excess of light or too much nitrogen.

No there fine they are feeding threw the roots as long as the perk up when light come on. They usually drop more if your using a light foliage spray feeding which is great before flowing stage will pay off at harvest

I notice you have a humidifier in there. If using it properly you shouldn't have an issue with rh going down to 10%....shouldn't happen anyway. Maybe they need a bigger pot, more soil? Maybe water less but more often?

Nothing to worry about. They are just doing their rest cycle. That schedule is hard on a little girl. Don't panic everything is looking great!! Happy growing!

Is My Critical AUTO a Photoperiod Strain?I have 3 auto strains, 2x Thunderfuck and 1x Critical. The Thunderfuck plants bloomed normally and have been harvested. The Critical, except for a few light pre-flowers on one stem, hasn't bloomed. I suspect it might be a photoperiod. Should I put it in the tent at 12/12 or 18/6?Week 14

When to harvest?Beginner question:
Would you say this is ready to harvest soon or should I wait some more? Leaves turning autumn colors, 3/4 of pistils turned orange.

Why do my plants only have that light greenish yellowish look at the top and why is one of my plants also having those sick leaves at the bottom?2 of my 3 plants are a bit yellow-ish at the top since about a week. Plant 1 also had a couple of sick leaves at the bottom that I did remove. Those leaves had brown/dark spots, felt dry like paper, had very purple stems and did smell more like hay.

I got to harvest in 14 days: in order to have enough time to cure it before leaving home for 2 weeks (safety first: is a period of floods in here, I just can't take the risk). I had a pretty long vegetative stage but I'm gonna finish it at 13 weeks. Am I gonna ruin it it, right?9 months ago
