Seeds from Nirvana planted on 7/1
150w HPS on 18/6 timer schedule
Roots Organics- Buddha Grow Nutrients

Growing Medium is equal parts- moss, worm castings, and perlite

Water is from tap but aerated with aquarium pump for 24 hours prior to use

PH=7-7.1

Possible overwatering in the first 3-4 weeks

The fringes of the leaves are curled up and new bottome leaves are whitish. It should be getting enough nutrients. I'm following the schedule on the Buddha Grow bottle. Any suggestions?

move it in
like 20inches away


the light doesnt explain the curling
but maybe your lower leaves arent gettin enough light
so they r losing color

my indoor plants were doing this for a while under 13k lumen until i put them out into sunlight and they cleared right up. its just a pheno that doesn't do well under low light conditions. remember plants are used to sunlight which is about 90k to 100k lumen. sticking them under a 150w is simply not enough for some cannabis strains. hell my medium was even similar to yours.

solution 1- give them more light
solution 2- try to acquire a strain with lower light requirements

Thanks, I moved the plants to about 21" away from the light which gives about 16k lumen. Hopefully they will start to come around. One other question. Wednesday will be 8 weeks from planting. When should I switch to 12/12 for flowering? I am hoping to have them harvested and dried/cured by mid december. Thanks for your help everyone
 
All the best with this strain, dude. Please, upload some pics of your work, because I am very interested of this babe. Thanks in advance and have a nice trip :)
