Starting to get worried about my plant haha. It's at about 5 weeks from seed, grown in coco - perlite 70/30. Running a cheap led drawing like 185w and 6x 23w cfls. Been using the sensi coco ("pH perfect") 2 part fert, feeding everyday till I see some run off at half strength with tap water. Ive noticed that the leaves are starting to get holes and some even look totally messed up to me. I tried looking the plant over but I can't see any bugs. I went out today and picked up some safers end all I believe it's called? But I would like some input before I spray it.

At this point in time I do not have a pH reader or ppm pen. I'm guessing that would be a wise investment.

Any info would be great!




** not sure if pics are working they are showing up when I'm here editing the thread but doesn't show up when I view it... ugh
Thanks!!

Definitely a bug of some sort. Plants look good tho. Mix end all 50 ml per litre and you have to spray the underside of your leaves every 3 days for 9 days

Yea, sorry. Nothing much we can do.

If it's bugs like Palmer says, diatomaceous earth is natural if you care about that kind of thing. It's also a preventative/maintenance worker too. A little goes a LONG way. Just a thought.

I saw a couple small specs in some pics but doesn't look like bug damage to me.

It's nothing to worry about. Most likely ph fluctuations.

This IS just my opinion. I do not see anything wrong though. She looks quite happy. Good job.
