CharterCannabisstarted grow question 4 years ago
Wondering what light schedule I should run for this since it's an auto? I've seen 18/6 suggested but also full 24. Anyone have any suggestions/experiences?

Don't go full 24hr, it's OK while they pop out the ground but after that either go 20/4 or 18/6. They need a rest period. I do 20/4 in winter to generate a higher temp and 18/6 in the summer to lower my temps.

When to lower light intensity?When is the right time to lower light intensity? I'm on 5th week of flowering, should I keep my lights on max or reduce the power/increase the distance to plants? I have around 1000W of Led's at 35-60cm distance from the tops. I see no burning/bleaching or anything like that.Other. General questions

Lifespan of led grow lights?Lifespan of LED quantum boards?
Hi
I'm looking for anyone who has first hand experience with the lifespan of the led grow lights. I'm not looking for the manufacturer guidelines. Just anyone who has noticed any difference in performance from the LEDs over time..

Nitrogen toxicity? Deficiency? Something else? Stumped!I don't get it. Is this N toxicity? Serrated upturned edges, clawing, slow growth. But how? FFHF 75% FFOF 25%. Just Cal-Mag water. No food. NLS in bottom 3rd of pot. Not wind burn. Not too hot/dry at all. N deficiency? Yellow leaves on first bottom two only. I'm stumped.a year ago

Best Light Schedule for Autoflowers?I'm wondering what light schedules my fellow growers like to use with their Autoflowers? I'm debating weather the additional cost of a 20/4 is worth it in terms of growth and increased Bud Quality/Size over a 18/6 schedule. I would love to hear your experiences.Setup. Lighting

Do I have an (Mg) issue?Leaves turn light, have black spots and 1 leaf rolls in upwards. It got Epsomite with every watering so I guess it's not a deficiency. Last time there was not even a drain. So maybe nutrient absorption is blocked? Should I flush? Is it to stressfull for this autoflower?a year ago
