V3D4 Recovery period looking good. Second nodes are peeking.

Agreed. Just measured it, was at 22". I raised it to 26". From what I understand, this is about a far away as you'd want to take it.

V3D2 All newer growth back to green. Under watering seems to have been the issue. Now that the 6th node was peeking out, I decided to begin the topping. So scary. As a lifelong LST'er, it was painful to top a vegging plant with 6 nodes. Topped to the 3rd node and cleared all other growth...

V3D1 Pots getting lighter, but watering could probably go another day or two. Tips of the leaves have the claw. Not sure why.

V2D7 New growth looking greener than the last set. What's weird is how fat the leaves are on Jane. I know there is Indica in there to keep the Durban short for indoor grows, but she's much fatter than her sister, though I don't know that both seeds' genetics came from the same parents... Just...

Yes. I generally check by the weight of the pot, but also by the condition of the plant. If anything, I usually let them get too dry to the point the leaves sleep. If the problem isn't nutes, then it was definitely under watered. The first week and a half the rh was super low in my house until...

V2D6 The plants are starting to show differences in their characteristics. One is quite a bit more stout than the other. I've decided to name them since they have their own personalities at this point. Mary is the tall one on the left, Jane is the short one on the right. Super imaginative, I...

Posted a separate thread in the plant probs section this past week while I went through the confusion over the yellowing... https://www.rollitup.org/t/nitro-def.928044/#post-13173715

V2D5 Seems a little better today after the soaking. Definitely the heaviest the pot has been through the whole grow. Still yellow but hopefully it will work itself out. I'm thinking it will green up over a few days.

Now I'm thinking maybe a half gallon of water just isn't enough. I bumped up to a gallon apiece. Lots of runoff. I tested the soil ph and got a reading about 8. So I lowered the ph of the water to 5.5. But I'm starting to think that meter was cheap shit and I just dosed them with acid for no...

I agree with you, tramp. I think it was just not enough water. I wasn't getting much runoff. I've never used fabric pots before, or this size. they seem to dry out fast.My previous grows were in 7 inch plastic pots. So maybe a super good rinse with lots of runoff is the way to go! I ran a...

I agree with you that ffof shouldn't result in n def. Everything I have read says ffof runs hot with nutes. I agree ph has got to be the issue. I got my hands on a soil meter and it has the ffof above 7. With that info, the ph charts have maybe iron deficiency. The pics don't look like iron to...

600 watt hps with air cooled hood is around 24"-30" above. Air temps sit around 78° with the light on. Watered 3 times over 8 days, only began ph adjusting with this last watering 2 days ago.

Hi all, looking for an opinion on my plants' issues. 2 plants growing indoor 600 watt hps Watering 2x per week Soil is ffof, 3 gal fabric pot Just entering 2nd week veg 2 days ago: Today: Potted 9 days ago Added straight tap water to dry soil on day 1 Watered 1/2 gal distilled water day 5...

After looking through the resources here on deficiencies, I'm thinking more likely nitrogen def. Probably an indicator that I do need to start nutes despite my beliefs from reading up on other's experience with ocean forest soil. I'll probably start with a half strength dose and work up from...

V2D1 Watered a half gallon per pot of ph'd tap water today. Leaf development looking good, 3rd node peeking out. That 3rd node will be the site of the first topping of the Nebula manifold, but I'll wait until a few more leaf sets are out so the roots are established enough to help the plants...

New passive intake ducting installed. Pantyhose are on the end of the ducting in the side port sock. The light leakage is now roughly a million and a half times better, though the duct isn't long enough to completely trap the light. I have longer sections of ducting available if need be, but...

V1D5 Starting to accelerate new leaf development. :weed: Not sure if the watering has anything to do with it. I suspect it did. Temps are back up again, but I believe that is due to me restricting the intake vent in an attempt to reduce the light coming out the side. I finally put a clip fan in...

2 days later, still week 1 New set of leaves emerging. Some odd coloring on the first set. Watered 1 gallon straight distilled water between the two pots. I will be using ph'd tap water from here on out.

Day 3 update: All is well on the temps front. My best guess is that the 3 gal pots and soil are providing additional buffer to air temps. But whatever the cause, happy sitting around 78°-80°. Also did seem to help with RH now up around 25%. Not ideal, but certainly better. Seedlings look good...
