Quick question for you guys. I've got my NB going into week 5 flower. I have them under Chinese LEDs. Today I noticed that some of the tops have white tips and the hairs look like they were clipped. I moved my lights up to about 18" because I was running them at about 10 inches so thinking they maybe got light burn? I was running the lights a little low because even tho one is supposedly 1000w and one is 300w....they pull about 275 actual watts (together) from the wall. So I didnt think they were powerful enough that I had to run them up too high.

Do you think the tops will repair themselves or will those tops be trash now?
(Sorry I can't attach pics....my lights are out for the night. I'll try upload a pic tomorrow)

I replied to my previous post so pics are in same spot as question. Here' the pics of a couple of my tops. A couple of the affected tops that are white and a normal one from same plant...but a little lower.

I don't know if it is the purple, my eyes , or what, but I don't really see it?
I have zero experience with led but I have scorched a few tops over the years lol
In my experience the burnt area will not grow normal again. It looks burnt because it is dead. It is best to cut it out and move lights so it doesn't happen again.

Cheers :)

Thanks....sorry yeah the pics aren't great.
I did move my lights up after I saw this to about 18". I wish I had a PAR meter to measure. When you buy the lights...they tell the PAR value at different distances but their measurements are known to be a little exaggerated...so I use the "watch and see" method. And even checking everyday this happened. Oh well...live and learn.

As usual none of this is being sold, but I also am in desperate need of some new friskers. It is double annoying as fuck, non fresh trimming, with old dull scissors. After 4 + years they are done lol

I got almost 8 full big jars from the two plants. Roughly 1/2 a pound or so. Plus a ton of trim and popcorn for butter. The worst part about them ending up being better then I expected is wondering what they woulda been like if they finished lol I still made the right choice. The weather has been shit since they were cut down.

Cheers :)
