The schedule they show has you using alot but I found it's not really all needed. You can keep it at 1200ppm the whole grow. And I've been changing the tank every 2 weeks or more just add half base nutes after a week. It's costly to buy at first but saves money in the long run. Getting 1.5 grows out of 1 set now. And 3 out of the veg nutes. Haven't seen any def yet.

Hey bro that gravity is some tricky stuff! If added to soon, late or to much will fuck your hole crop up with no
Way to correct it. Little food for thought!
I no longer use it. If all is right buds will be plenty dense. luckily that batch just burned some leaves, still good smoke.

No bad affects is a good sign. Happy to see things getting back on track.

just some food for thought in your pics above it looks like your light is kinda close to your plants i keep my 1k's tied all the way to the top of my tent. i have heard people say this and that about distance with a 1k but i keep mine way up there and when i have moved them closer have noticed nothing but neg outcome. tacoing/canoeing is a sign of intense light stress in some cases. just a thought its prably going to take some time for them to show a comeback.

Thanks for the heads up. I actually raised my light since pic. It's 30-36 inches from tops right now. I'm gonna give it one more day and then update with pics. I also calibrated my meter again just to get that off my mind. I just have to get these healthy and into flower cause I have a flight to catch in 11 weeks and they need to harvested by then. 8 week strain so gives me 2 weeks to solve this. Actually it gives ya'all 2 weeks to solve this as I failed.

Sometimes puting them into flower can shake some issue! I have seen it roll like that!

how close is the lights to top plants?

Umm if your flight is in 11 weeks flower now. 1 week is transition and then 8 to harvest. So that's 9. 1 week to dry now your at 10. 1 week to cure and get your jars to 45% humidity so you can store them long term. And like hr sometimes 12/12 helps clear this up.

36" is a too far off your plants. 18-24" for a 1000w is ideal in my opinion.

18-24 is the best for 1000's but it really depends on the heat at the canopy. Sometimes 36 is needed. I also rise and lower my lights. Sometimes I need a little stretch so I take them up as much as I can for a few days then drop them down. Helps open them up for light without trimming. But makes stocks weak so don't do it very often.

Wanted to say thanks for all the support here too, not only do the more experienced botanists contribute but you guys go in depth in your explanations and really help the threads, i frequent this site more and more than i do my other ones for this same reason, nothing but good experiences here so far...as im sure you don't hear it enough....thanks guys...
Normally that's where I'm at. I usually back off light a bit if plants are trying to recover from something.
