I have one of my new sprouts doing the same thing. I too was using 24/0 on it and think that maybe the cause. I'm going to try 20/4 and see how she responds. Although, I do have another sprout that seems unaffected. The only difference I can think is possibly ph?

Anyways, good luck on a non-runt. Although I had a runt my grow that I didn't give up on and she ended up being my tallest plant right now.

I disagree but have not done anything except 24/0. Not sure why the plant would need a rest. A rest from what? Is there more root growth? Does the plant stretch during the lights out? Maybe I can be trained. Maybe.
I actually haven't tried 24/0 but I have read that there is more root growth at night, and I believe the plant stretches some and if you have enough vertical space, then why not let it get tall? I'm just saying this is what works for me, and I have seen awesome grows that started with 24/0, so whatever works for you.

Man been growin with 24/0...
Its an option you choose bro...18-6-24/0....24/0 grows faster cause it gets more light.
During veg ,marijuana plants dont need a photoperiod.Just during flower.

idk i dont like 24/0, not saying its dosnt work, the most i would use it for would be a couple days, i threw it out there because a thread i was commenting on a guy had a runt, grown it for a month almost, you kno what it is, new grower, anyway's, told him to go 18/6, plant blew up in growth in a matter of a week, turned out male tho after going to 12/12 haha, was a beauty tho, hope it works out Purp

been at 24/0 since sprout and my girls look great. btw this is my time 24/0 it grows pretty damn steadily compared to 18/6. personal preference i'd say, both schedules have worked for me.

:peace:

So what's up with that runt brother? I hope she is still kicking and you get everything set and rolling again. I doubt that runt was caused by lighting as well. Remember my giant monster of a mother? That was raised under 24/0, and so were all 3 of my bagseed and they are just as plump and healthy as anything else. Just a bad seed would be my guess man.

Im not saying every Plant will runt out cause of 24/0, but i dont think its that much of a stretch sayinig that t might have been the issue, start with 18/6, then see if you get a runt.... if you still do, its the seeds

Me personally dont like canna but i had to use up the rest of these nutes.General Hydroponics is the way to go.

Hey bro! A question on how you do nutrients!


Do you add more as you go each day, or do you mix a same strength gallon of water then just top off the res? I am trying to figure out if I should drain and replenish every time I change the nutrient strength, or if I should just try to change it on the fly. Looking good bro, should be taking off here real soon for yah. bongsmilie

It is finally starting to do sumthin! Lil burn and stunt from the 20% Humidity..When the plant is small,it needs more humidity.But this is also a very sensative strain.

Hey bro! I had the same problem with humidity, so I bought a Humidifyer for 23 bucks at walmart.... Went from 16% to almost 40 over a few hours! And that is with the machine feet from the plants and sensor. =-) Goodluck! bongsmilie
