HELP!!

[Collieherbman92]

Can someone tell me what’s happening to my plants? The first 1 is only 3” tall and second is 10-12” tall. They seem to be curling up and the first 1 has white spots on top of the leaf

 

[Collieherbman92]

This 1 looks limey colour with brown spots at the top of the plant

Without any other details
Poor drainage, and, or overwatering is my best guess.

Sorry new to this, they are getting time for the top to be dry but not crumbly also I water every second day and they drain properly with run off ph at 7, the soil/water ph is at 6.8, My humidity sits around 49-55% and heat is at 23-26degs c

 

[Collieherbman92]

Do you think I need to add nutes? How often and what is best to use? I’ve just turned the lights to 12/12 and have never given them any nutes yet.

If your in soil and watering every other day this early. It’s too much. Let it dry until the pot is really light. Then wait again until the pot is ready. Don’t water on a schedule.

 

[Collieherbman92]

So I have to let them dry out more your saying? I previously said I wait till the tops are dry but not cracking, just forgot to mention I also lift them to see if they’re light.

On the smaller plant if you water until runoff you shouldn’t have to water soil for 4 or 5 days. Stick your finger into your first knuckle, if it’s moist/wet then it’s not ready. If you’re not 100% just wait on more day.

Also try and water right when your lights come on.

I agree with wattzzup, let them dry out better before you water and I would also recommend transplanting them to bigger pots

 

[Collieherbman92]

Thoughts? Keen to learn more as said before new to this. Anything will help

 

[Collieherbman92]

Awesome and thanks for all the quick replies. What height do you have your lights at from the canopy?

 

[GrandaddyPurp x OG]

I try to keep mine about 18-24 inches away but I'm using a 1200watt led, might be different from yours

 

[Collieherbman92]

Sorry again I’m new to this I’m running 600 hps

The recommneded height is 16-18 inches for those lights, try that and if you notice any burn I would go higher. Get them in bigger pots though and try not to over water and they will bounce back. Good luck

You should go back to 18/6 until you get the plants healthy again.

 

[Collieherbman92]

Would going back to 16/8 not stress them out too much, I did think doing that?

Thanks for that will definitely change now and leave for a few cycles and assess again
