DINAFEM Sour Diesel Auto DWC

Thanks Vumar! I believe the brand claims 40,000 lumens or so per light. Although there is no depth to the intensity of the light like HID, the under growth is not too sparse. I thank the genetics for that since it is certainly not the lights.. lol i will add a pic of the under growth

You have some problems with the bottom s there sir! Doesnt look like a nitrogen def or a ph problem because I dont see any cal-mag lookout/def.... Almost looks bleached or sun burnt

Its just sparse and whispy cause the light does not penetrate the canopy. Ill take a few more pics, Im only using an iphone lol but I believe thats just light reflecting off the leaves.

under t5s, I like to trim under or lollipop so that there is nothing trying to grow where theres hardly any penetration. I was nervous the first time I tried it, but from the same moms cuttings and light I went from 286g which half was larfy flowers to 344g of golfball size nugs. I just took out the bottom 2/3rds of all leaves and flowers. I did the first pass when they started to flower, then I took out EVERYTHING below that line on day 21 of flower. it also cut my trim time down by half!!! youre doing great and those are some of the prettiest autos ive seen. I cant wait to see the finish!

I had a filter on the camera that made all the leaves look yellow/orange.. Here are some better pics!

I am always nervous about trimming autos cause they're so unstable, if it could stunt its growth i would rather not try. But I also have a reg photoperiod grow (12/12 to flower) that I have topped and lollipopped (currently only 4 but i plan to have 6 under 1 light) I will post some pics of the setup and plants.

I see what youre saying there, the one time I tried them they were a little different. i tried the cream caramel auto once and i used the same first sign of flower and again at day 21 thing with them with no trouble of hermies or anything. maybe someone with more auto trimming exp will comment.

Please help me diagnose this problem before it gets worse. Let me know what other information you might need or what I may have left out. This is Dinafems Sour Diesel Auto grown hydroponically (DWC) with General Hydroponics Flora FULL nutrient line. They are currently 8 weeks into flower and have never shown a sign of deficiency or burn. Im pretty sure this is not a burn or a deficiency but if you can convince me otherwise with factual proof I will believe and thank you! The leaves have orange/ rust spots only along the center vein and are on both sides of the leaves. There are no other visual defects to the leaves or plant. I have no pests/ bugs and I am certain of it! please don't comment or reply if you think this is the problem!


Thankyou for your help and concern,

I've had something similar to that before. I just thought it was calcium related

Never did figure it out. It stopped, but im not sure what I did to make it stop.

This is the ONLY T5 grow I will follow. I am impressed with your plants considering the lumen output. Very well done/tended for.

Very nice op, killing it with the t5.

Vumar have you checked RM3? He does a kw of mixed spec t5.

Very nice OP.

dbkick can you post a link to his thread? I would like to check this grow out! I am currently running 3 lights in this room. 432 watts per light x 3 is over a kw, like 1.2kw and only uses about 8A cause the lights are daisy chained.

Here's one in case you didn't already find it, I'm not sure if he has several threads or what t5 don't interest me but you guys are killing it!
