Leaves up?
GrowLawyer94started grow question 5y ago
Hey Guys 👍🏻
Quick question, I have my light (HPS - 250w) 40 cm above the plants - should I get the light lower? One of my babies has the leaves going up. I guess she is enjoying the light but I have doubts regarding the light distance.

Where the back of your hand feels comfortable for a minute your plants will be comfortable. At 15 inches your close to being at 600 watt height. 250 watt run much cooler than even a 400 watt and can be kept quite a bit closer. Cheers

They look happy where it is. If they are praying up like that then you don't want to push them any harder.

Taco leaves (Desfran)Hi, some of my leaves are curling like tacos (upwards). Some enviromental informations: day temperature 25 °C and humidity about 55%. At night 20 °C and humidity between 55 and 60%. I give them very only 1 ml/Liter of nutes (adcanced nutrients) and in the top rare purpish spots.

Plugged into extensions and a surge protector but aside from flipping a fuse every once in awhile this came out of nowhere. Any help would be great or even just where to start.

Additional lighting in flower???I’m planning on putting another 2 x 600wLED (blurpul colour type) alongside my current 2 x1000w led Cree cob lights. I have them spare and was hoping this will help with flower/thc production??? Is it worth putting them in or just wasting electricity. Any help appreciated 🤙✌️🎄Week 21

How can I reduce the heat in my 5x5 tent (650w light bar/6" ac Infinity and a ton of fans) without AC? Do I have to leave tent open?5x5 tent is in a kind of lung room (utility room) that stays around 20C/68F. The tent always seems to be at 30C86F with lights on. Ive added and moved fans, opened more intake vents. I have AC, but its -25C/-13F outside. Id like to drop the daytime temp 5ish degrees for flower.

Otherwise healthy leaf curling in on itself at top of plantAnything to be concerned about? This is a plant that has had a history of yellowing leaves due to I think nutrient deficiency. New leaves are coming in light/dark green. Maybe caused by being too close to the lights? (It is my shortest plant with about 1 ft distance)

Whats wrong with this plant?Was water logged, transplanted into 95% dry soil to correct, soil with nutes in it.
I see:
Heat stress. LED light 2.2 ' away, raised the light. ( curling up )
Late stage P deficiency... green veins.
Can't flush, was just waterlogged, what to do? Water a bit with RO?

MARS HYDRO TS600 LIGHT STILL ON WHEN TIMER SWITCHES OFFit is a known problem i found 2 forum posts discussing it.
Different timers have been tried but it always remains the same.
Someone said with a mechanical timer the problem is solved I will try that as soon as I have one.
In any case, this is absolutely unacceptable.

How to measure lumens of a full spectrum LED light.Since a lux meter only measures certain spectrums of light, how do I use a lux meter to determine the right height of my full spectrum grow light? I have it at the recommended distance but I have signs of light stress. Bleaching of some upper leaves. I moved it up 4 more inches?Week 4

How to tell if light is damaging plant?I'm using a Mars Hydro Ts600. Manufacturers advice is to keep height at 12'' minimum above the canopy in flower but other growers report it can hang as low as 10''. In identifying optimum height how would I be able to tell if it was too low for my plants? What should Iook for?Week 8
