started grow question 8y ago
My light is an LED sitting around 8.66inch (22cm) above my plants. The light is cool and no excess heat is reaching the plants, but is this still too low?

Does not seem like it. When the light is too close, the leaves, will curl upward and yours look fine.

LED or HID? You have stated HID at the top but are asking about LED.

What power is the LED? Height above the plant depends on the power of the lamp

Hi all! It's my first time germinating , and I'm going to use jiffies . I ll be transposing these to 7 gallon fabric pots. I want these ladies to really root in and get comfy so my question is : can I hydrate the jiffies with a CANNA Rhizotonic solution to sort of promote growth?

I've chopped the plants, big one is whole plant and small one in branches. Is my 6" roof fan (seen week one) on "low" (1/3) enough ventilation if they're both hanging in the tent? I've turned off my circulation fan, should I put it on low underneath the buds? Humidity ~55

Is superscrogging in the beginning of the flowertime (1st week) (very) bad for the plants? They grew to high and I had no other chance to get them more away from the LED light. I‘ve had burned flower (like an albino)

Defoliación en la 6ta semana de floración??
Note que las plantas tenían mucha vegetación no llegaba nada de luz a la parte baja de las ramas y algunos pequeños cogollo se estaban poniendo color amarillo, decidí arriesgarme y hacer una gran defoliación en esta etapa. Creen que pueda causar algún problema??

Did I remove too much growth?
Did I cut too much? She was getting so bushy that there was water puddling on the leaves. She’s in very early stage of flowering and didn’t plan on cutting again but she’s growing like crazy. Pictures are before- After and after top view

My seedling in the red solo cup was knocked over and fell out! I immediately picked it back up and replanted it in the cup. I also added more soil and watered it soon after. Is there anything else I should do or is this seedling dead? Btw there was no physical damage to the plant

Hey, So I've been battling low humidity nonstop. Does anyone have advice on how to give a plant extra moisture or trick it into thinking its more humid? Other than building a greenhouse.
