Stem thickness
MrBigGrowstarted grow question 3y ago
I am noticing that my stem is often too thin when compared to other plants. What this could be an indication of? Could it be that I am slightly under watering the soil by giving about 0.5 L of water each two days after 35 days of veg?

Looks good to me. Maybe plant in wider /deeper pots and do a base size comparison going forward

I found out, my DWC system wasn't stable. This caused to much difference in temp/EC and PH. Now I"m sure I found the solution but, do you think I need to start over? 2 look very very bad. See pictures. I made 1 picture of each plant in te last serie. See the difference.Week 3

leaves are very droopy and look tiredHey,
I just noticed that my leaves are very droopy... they look tired.. I don't know what the problem is. PH : 5,8 / EC : 0,45
I changed the night from 4 to 6 hours but on another schedule... maybe it stressed them too much? Lack of nutrients?
Thank you!5y ago
