First Grow - Of All Systems Possible - Except Outdoors

is there an advantage to it?

if the yellowing or damaged leaves are shading healthy parts of the plant i would remove them letting more lumens to healthy parts of the plant. mostly its function and then appearance that i trim for.

 

[JohnWA]

great. thanks man.

 

[JohnWA]

todays update on my ladies!

 

[JohnWA]

Why is this happening? This is one of the big leaves that are about half way up, but the ones below it are still healthy as sh*t.

And why is the base of it red?

 

[Mono]

Have they had any nutes?

 

[JohnWA]

yep, all are currently on nutes. but very little. half dosage.

 

[JohnWA]

Why are my closet plants drooping?

Im assuming that its because my lights that are on the sides are CFL 5000 kelvins and the T lights above them are 4200K. So the side leaves are migrating towards the side lights rather than above.

 

[JohnWA]

todays update! I am worried about the left fog plan and its drooping. Advice anyone?

How does my training of the soil's look?

 

[TaylorMade420]

how many watts total do you have for light over the plants mate?

 

[TaylorMade420]

as for training it doesnt look like youve done much tbh, i would pull the full plant over and start tying it around the edge of the pot

I only just tied them down yesterday, the largest branches that were heading straight up.

You suggest to tie the the top middle down?

 

[TaylorMade420]

think you may have to get some more intense lighting, think thats why the leaves further away are wilting, if the plants getting no light to the lower eaves it will feed off them and kill them off, as for the halogen, i wouldnt advise using it they just cause so much heat and the spectrum aint great for cannabis

 

[JohnWA]

yea, the halogens are out as per your suggestion I believe it was.

 

[JohnWA]

OK...well for now I have add a few more watts to the plant than were on there this morning. But from the side. I don't have much room for anything above since I'm already hanging from my closet top down.

At the end of the month I will go buy a 4 light fixture instead of 2 and I will move the 2 light fixture to my ebb and flow. If possible to just fit the 4 in with the 2 I will do that

 

[TaylorMade420]

yea mate take the main stem at the bottom just gently squeeze it between your fingers an slight roll them till you feel it softening up then just pull it over and tie it down, just try not to snap it lol

[JohnWA]

Do you have a picture from the side?

 

[TaylorMade420]

 

[TaylorMade420]

the pic above is showing a tear from pulling the branch down so much,the main stem is 5 inches from the top of the clay pebbles, then i pulled the two stems growin at the top and pulled em apart till the the stem split down the middle
