Stu’s First Grow

[InTheShed]

Let it be. Let it be. Let it be. Let it be.
There will be an answer, let it be.

 

[Stu]

Okay thx InTheShed!!!!
I’ll let it be and watch it patiently

 

[Stu]

Bahhhhhh, after close inspection, looks like I nute burned 5-9 plants last night got quite a few neon green leaf tips and some dry edges on fan leaves...I gave 1/2 strength Sensi grow part a&b..... so now to repair this just ph’d water for a couple waterings and no nutes?
First screw up.... many more to come I’m sure and yes I ripped that leaf old shakey here

 

[InTheShed]

Nute burn shows at the tip rather than the edges. Don't change anything yet but keep an eye on it to see if it spreads.

 

[Stu]

So would you be leaning towards a calcium deficiency or nitrogen possibly... after looking at pictures online that was my best guess if not me over feeding the nutes. I’ll update Sunday with new pics and see if any change
Thanks!

 

[InTheShed]

I don't want to lean any way at this stage, but make sure your plants are getting enough of everything they need. Easy!

 

[Stu]

Okay... noted

Thanks Shed!

Just a normal little plant showing a little stress. As shed said just keep an eye on it. The other plant you ended up FIMing and you can try and train that one into 6 main lines if you want. I've seen it done and it turns out pretty well. You have others that were quadlined so you'll be able to experiment with one now! Things really look fine here. Just always take a deep breath and then try to compare them from day to day to see if things are getting worse or better or staying the same. If the answer is anything but getting worse then you are A-OK.

 

[Stu]

Thanks Asesino85
I’ve seen the term FIM around here....okay like shed says I’ll leave it be and see what happens over next couple days.
Thanks for the replies guys

You will be surprised how quickly the plant heals and responds. Few weeks and I will be topping.

 

[Stu]

I’ll be watching UrbanAchiever!

Brave is not the first word I’d have choose for myself lol
And indeed was scary, first clip I used scissors all the rest I used a steral new exacto blade, was much cleaner cuts.

Do you have a journal also?

Hey Stu. I haven't read the whole thread, but did you manage to get your humidity up to where you wanted? I face similar issues here - tis the season where every time I touch a door handle I wonder if I'll get shocked, and it came earlier than usual this year. I found a warm air humidifier works really well. The plants in veg love both the humidity and the warmer temperature.

 

[thebigearl]

I just figured out how to link it into my signature haha.
The humidity thing is a fun game to get dialed in here in the dry North! I use a cold mist humidifier and its working well with the heat output from the light and the fan inside circulating.

 

[Stu]

Hey man, thx for stopping by, I did get it under control , ended up buying a warm and a cool humidifier cool is inside the tent beside a fan and the warm mist is outside the tent being sucked in via dryer ducting and a inline fan... have been holding 45 to 50 last couple weeks.
This weekend I plan to make a feed system for the cool one as it has a small tank and I need to fill every 10 hrs. I plan to add a hose bib and hose to a 5 gallon pail outside the tent feeding the cool humidifier a very slow rate of continues water, got a bib and washers already to do it in the morning

 

[DobeWan]

Honestly I love winter in Canada for growing. Yeah veg is tougher, but it makes dialing in the environment in flower so much easier. My humidity stays right on the money in flower during the months we're running the furnace.

 

[Stu]

I’ll agree the furnace definitely helps keep the temps more stable...... I’ve got a new light on order so I’m gonna have some refiguring of things in a couple weeks.

 

[Stu]

I’ve added my city to my sig, does anyone know if that’s frowned apon?
I’m still trying to find someone to adopt my blue cookie plant!

 

[Tony Urban]

Yeah during winter my RH is 40 steady in the basement. Good for flower. Not so much for veg. I think this is part of why I haven’t had pest issues though. They don’t dig my climate lol.
