hey there Acidjj, to me it looks like it was some water that splashed up, collected and the leaf got damaged by the "loupe effect" of the light . Nothing you can really do, just be a bit careful. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Can't really see too much wrong, pretty normal looking seedling to me. Could be too much nitrogen for this sativa dominant strain though. Cheers,........... Organoman.

Runnoff measuring results are not what I expected.Hello, I have a question. When you look at my diary, I find my runnoff measurments to be concerning. Why do you think my PPM is so high and my pH so low? How do I measure my runnoff correctly? Do I filter it before reading or do I let it wait?

How deep can I bury stalk during transplant?Hi! I'm going to up-size my seedling to a 1 gallon pot this week. How deep I safely bury the stalk? It's currently 7cm from soil to the cotyledons. Could I bury all the way to the cotyledons or is this too much stalk to put under ground? Thanks for your advice👍

seedling discoloration, leaning toward center, brown perlite despite no nutrients so far leaves of these seedlings look weird, almost looks like light discoloration, but they also seem to be leaning toward the middle of the box for more light. Also, the perlite is turning orangey/brown, just got a new light and dont have much experience with LED or growing in general

Slight Leaf Discoloration. Early zinc deficiency?Girl showing slight discoloration on newer leaves. Mostly interveinal + little on the tips. Guessing it's an early zinc def. but would like another opinion. Watering sparingly at ph 6.3 - 6.5. No runoff yet, so ph may be higher in soil. Lower ph and watering til runoff next time?

Hello. After 30 years of growing, I've found my first twin. Can they be separated? Have you heard of it being done or have you done it or should I just cut the weaker stem out? What other advice can you give on this matter. Chuck.

Calcium Deficiency???So this is a Calcium Deficiency right? Noticing on top leaves. Not bad yet but want to stop it before it starts as this grow has been my best so far. I have been using CalMag every water but I did lower the dose for a few days as I was told I was using too much for flower.
