looking good wildwelshman! I dont know if its been covered or not but your girl is looking heat stressed? The curling of the leaves.

Yer it not heat stress it it a mag problem. She was in soil and i couldn't get PH above 5.5 so she is now repoted (not good for autos)and now she is picking up a bit now.
 
Ohhh ok thanks for the info! How did you narrow it down to a mag def? If this was my plant i would def think it was heat stress. I would love to know for future reference!

:thumb:

The plant was about 2 foot away fron the lights and the tent dont go above 28c. So that ruled out heat stress. My soil PH i couldnt get above 5.5 and with LED it is more off a need to add mag supplemet and also kingjohn also thought it was a mag issue and he has got a world full of knowledge.
 
Its offical the new little girl is now on day 1. As you can see she is a bit shy but i have had a word with her and she has promised me that she is going to grow big and strong and eat all her food up. Heres a pic of her.

I am now using canna terra professional plus. I forgot to get some perlite though, but next time im going to add 25% perlite just for extra air circlation to the roots and for better drainage. I have a pic a few post up with the soils componments taken off the back off the bag of soil.
 
Alright Welshy :) I noticed your soil looks a bit chunky. When potting up it's best to rub it through your fingers to break up the lumps. The chunks have compressed so your roots will struggle to penetrate & your soil wont hold as much oxygen. Another little tip for soil growing is to use a wetting agent in your nute mix as it helps with the flow & distribution of the water by breaking the surface tension.

Nice update bro & good luck with your new baby :)

Cheers for the tips mate. Im not to sure what you mean by wetting agent though.
 
I'm using Plant Magic Bio-Wetter as a foliar spray on my grow, it's a very high concentrate of the yucca plant. When used as a wetting agent it breaks the surface tension of the water.
To try & explain what effect it has, imagine doing a belly flop into a swimming pool, the water tension makes it a semi-solid which slaps your belly, stings & makes it red. If you added a wetting agent & belly flopped you would not get a slapped belly & sink comfortably into the pool. The effect it has when watering your plants is similar, non wetted water belly flops onto your soil & being more solid it finds the route with the least resistance so you can end up with dry pockets, if your soil gets a crusty top, it'll just run down the outside of the pot & avoid the soil. By adding a wetting agent there is no resistance in the water so it will flow easily throughout your soil.

Has that helped?
