Just a heads up @GrowPops.

Cell phone pictures typically have data encrypted into the pic that can be hacked to reveal the location of where the picture was taken, date, time, etc...
There are free programs out there that can strip off that data.

If you aren't 100% legit with the laws in your area it can be a huge compromise.
Fwiw.

Wow! Spider mites.Where. Could you point that out in a picture please, Or explain you theory. The dreaded mite was a big factor when I shut my grow down years ago.

Cal deficiency? I try to do my homework before posting questions and I think cal deficiency should have effected the whole plant or plants. I am down to believing that the problem was either nuet burn or some kind of lockout caused by the water. Our municipal water had a moldy smell out of the tap and made the coffee taste funny. The water was drawn 3 days prior to use as always, THe signs popped up 2 days after plain watering. Localized mainly on lowest set of leaves on bottom. They did not get any worse after those pictures taken and the new grown looks healthy. I am waiting on my partner for a round of new pictures. Camera broke.

Thanks for the help and please help educate me on both the mite issue and the cal def.
Here's a close-up of a calcium deficiency that appeared on leaves towards the top of a cannabis plant grown in coco coir:

thanks, I see what you mean. Having some light burn at the same time also isn't helping my diagnosis either, and it too has been mentioned.

Epsom and mollassass should be fine. I use cal/mag every watering now just because they love it so much. I added some epsom to the dirt in my garden. Nothing happened and I figured it was all hooey and then I did a deep soak. The next day the girls were all the most beautiful shade of dark green!

Yep, absolutely true, learned this in my first digital forensics class. I tell people who post pics of their kids on facebook all the time.... a pedophile can use the gps tag from the photo to find your house. You can turn off location sharing on your cell phone and set it to "911" only.

It doesn't really matter however, since the NSA collects every conversation, every text and every post and has been doing so for quite a while.. not to mention the fact that your internet service provider also collects and stores this info. You basically have no privacy unless you've set up proxies and use an anonymous browser. This might hide you from outsiders but I'm not sure what you can do to hide your activity from your own ISP.

If they want us they'll find us... i dont spend much time worrying about it either way.

I figure if they are coming here for what little I'm doing for myself and family then I will have a legitimate complaint for harassment. I've lived in this town for almost 30 years and know several officers and dignitaries. A little research and even the newbies can see that I am personal use only. This country has way bigger fish to fry than the holistic home homeowner. Like the fucking crack head/dealer on the corner that I know for a fact they monitor traffic and have done nothing for over a year. (sorry he and his current lady friend have been yelling in the street again for the last week)

Quick shot of the girls at 17days since flip before the lights went out tonight.little Pinapple Kush is on the right (top) AK47 0n the left.View attachment 3404454
Sorry about the light. Tomorrow I plan on trying to add a 150w MH and will get some better pics.
If you have a choice, go with a 150w HPS. It will fatten your buds up a lot more than the white/blue MH light. My grow is 19 days from flip so I'll be watching yours =)

Im running a 600w HPS now and am getting the temps dialed in consistent, I am thinking the MH to broaden the spectrum as has been suggested since I have the setup.

The girls are looking healthy. I'm down for this ride.
Im hoping to get a little feedback on the pics with natural light. They have a slightly yellow hue and a little tip upcurl (I believe is low humidity). I keep going back and forth over liking the FFOF soil. and am almost afraid to give anything but water. (Finally got the rainwater setup and its rained again all day.:clap:) Watered yesterday a gallon each 1 tsp molasses 1/4 tsp. Epsom and they actually looked happier this morning. Heavy on the LST last couple of days and when I took the pic they asked for more water. (ya I talk to them often. They will teach if you listen. haha)

Yea seems like u might run into a little humidity trouble with a 600w in such a space.
But that's just gonna keep them thirsty, im pretty sure the lst is makin them thirsty as well.
Add a bowl of water with a few ice cubes in the grow space.

Im at like 38% just about every time I check with the light on. Ambient room is usually between 8 and 12% higher. I used a soaked towel by the fan several times today but really only helped a percent or two. I didn't think 38% was detrimental?

45-50% sounds about right.
The bowl of water usually helps me out with about 2-5%. Do you foliar feed. Misting helps me with humidity as well.
