Tacoing of top fan leaves
SinSemillaWhisperer420started grow question 5y ago
What is the best approach to combat tacoing top fan leaves? The other day, as suggested by the seed bank, per strain remove upper fan leaves to improve bud density. I also have been feeding microbes a touch too much I believe as I have been adding it in smaller daily doses. Help.

Taco is heat! Check the heat at top bud height

Tacking or canoeing of the top leaves is always either heat or light stress. Lower heat, raise lights.. Cheers

More rusty spotsSee this now on more and more leaves. Only upper fan leaves that get good light exposure seem to be affected from this and also the clawing.
Have backed off the nutes completely for now and will add ground egg shells to the water in the hope its a Ca deficiency.5y ago

PPFD Management -- Am I doing this right? :) (See fan leaf photos for curling)TS1000 (150W x 2), set to 75% at 12-14". "Photone" app (yes, not as good as a PAR reader) reads 580-700 PPFD, so I sense these girls aren't getting as much light as they could. I've read that pushing 900 PPFD is desired (CO2 bags);fan leaves curled. How should I think about this?Week 3

Organic soil 0.1-0.1-0.1 60% soil 40% perlite soil is pretty damn dry on topThe girls seem to be doing ok, little bit of curl up on some of the leaves, which indicates I over watered, humidity is usually 40-50%. I water 1 time per day with a mister, it's only been last few days that leafs curl up. Is it time for nutrients?. They are 10-11 days old.TIALeaves. Curl up

Does the curl here (pic- Day 10) look like mild heat stress? Temps hover around 23-24°C (~75°F). RH ~ 65-75%. Water pH'ed to 6.5. Soil runoff tests @ 6.4-6.5.

Leave issueWhat is this? Nutrient burn, deficiency, fungus? I tried to look up the answer but it might be different things on different plants. Please help me diagnosis this. The white powder is DE and the small holes are from flea Beatles. But I’m more concerned about the browning.Week 3
