Always produce drain while using organic fertilizer?
trelornystarted grow question 1y ago
I think I made a big mistake in this very first grow, so here is the question: Should I always water enough to produce some drain? Even when using organic fertilizer?
Until now I did not have a single drain in the whole grow as I water ~10-15% of the pot volume.

I grow all organic in a living soil bed. No drain, never. When I used fabric pots I tried to avoid drain in General.
Keep it moist.
Just make sure to have a good amount of material for airation such as pumice, vermiculite or perlite in your soil.

Brown burnt tips on smallest leavesToday I noticed that smallest leaves are getting brown tips. Yesterday I sprayed her with diy insecticide against thrips(soap, alcohol and h2o2). Could it be light burn or nutrient burn? She grows in bio bizz all mix which is heavy fertilized, and gets no extra nutrients.

Starting to have an issue with the Industrial plant. Lower leaves are showing a number of bronzey brown spots with edge burn. Any ideas? I think it might be a magnesium issue because it appeared as the plant started flowering. Picture of the leaf above. Fan leaf stems are purple.Week 7

Is this light burn?Is this light burn? If not what is it?
It's under a Phillips 13w household led 2700k bulb, it's not the only affected area but it's the most affected and the closest to the bulb.
I plan to add more but don't want the issue to accelerate.
Thanks in advance!
