DirtyDanny's 600 Watt LED Grow

Gave her a good flush today with mineral spring water...........hopefully it will take care of the slight rust on some of the leaves.

Thanks again chester............ im pretty happy with her progress.

Anyone here have any idea what "sap" appearing at the sides of the leaf tip serrations means?
I keep seeing this on the larger and older fan leaves........ but I cant seem to get a picture of it.
You can see them clear as day in person, but I cant capture it in a pic.

Here is an example of the location that the "wet sap" keeps appearing on the leaves.......(circled in red) Its wet and sappy at first, but then it dries and leaves a shiney spot????

She got her 1st dose of flowering nutes yesterday as recommended by the Fox Farms schedule.
Big bloom, Grow big, Tiger bloom, Boomerang, Microbrew, and Open Seaseme. (didnt use the flower kiss as Im not sure how she will react to foliar feeding under this INTENSE led light)
Examined the undergrowth and its exploding with pistils from just about every node :yahoo:
There is finally some stretch starting, but most of the new growth is a bit dull green as opposed to the undergrowth thats deep green.
I believe that there is still some bleaching going on from the light being too close.........time to raise the light again.

Bleeding leaf? WTF???
I gave the girl a visit this morning and found that she needed ANOTHER good undergrowth pruning as im trying to get her to concentrate on her 10 tops.
After removing many new undergrowth "shoots"............I came across this single fan leaf that appears to be bleeding some clear red liquid!
Never seen anything like it before............anyone have any ideas?

Pest poop? although...... i have no pests. (that can be seen anyways)
 
Alrighty then...........not sure what to do here?
Checked on the girl this morning and gave her another dose of nutes.
I just happened to lift up the air-pot and have a looksie underneath.
There is about 6-8" of roots hanging out from the bottom of the pot! (the bottom of the pot was lined with a layer of coco fibers to keep the soil from falling through the bottom convex grid)
The roots looked white and healthy............but isnt this just inviting diesease and root rot?
Should these roots be cut back to the bottom of the pot? Or would it hurt and/or stunt her growth? (or encourage new root growth)
She is growing AWESOME, and I dont want to screw up her growth rate.
Ive never used an air-pot before, so ive never ran into this problem......if in fact, it is a problem.
Anyone have any expierence with this? Thanks in advance!
 
Thanks for advice Chester and KingJohn...........
Its my gut instinct to chop off the exposed roots, but ive never came across this particular situation before so I was kinda confused.
Ive had mold in the past growing in my basement.........so I know that there are spores down there.
I think that exposed roots in combination with mold spores = disaster, especially seeing that the growing enviroment is prone to mold.
:thanks:
