I’ve been anxiously waiting for my next run so I can employ this low maintenance approach.
I finally got things set up and popped 3 beans….2 chreme de la chems from Mephisto and a Northern lights from 207.
All 3 germinated quickly and looked like they were ready to rock. I decided to start them in small plastic cup-like pots and move them to 3gal pots once they got established.
I used 100% light warrior for them…..I thought that was a suggested starter mix and after a couple of weeks move to FFOF, EWC, with extra perlite. I never figured I’d have any trouble at the seedling stage……but I’m a little concerned.
Pics are attached but only 1 of the 3 looks reasonably healthy.
i have the environment dialed in….temps 79-82, RH of 65-67% under an HLG 320 LED. Ppfd is between 275-300. But they don’t look good….they are a little over 2 weeks from being helmet heads.
Initially the Light Warrior was pretty dry and light. I only gave an occasional misting and just a few drops of distilled water.
Yesterday I became concerned that they had no moisture at all in the medium. The fan was blowing the perlite out of the pots. So I have each plant 2oz with most going around the edges of the small pot. I did put a teaspoon of EWC on top of the light warrior also to keep the perlite from flying out. The fan is not blowing very hard.
2 of the 3 have really pink/purplish new growth.
i can’t figure out why they aren’t growing well.
The leaves look a touch yellow and are turning down on one plant and twisting on another.
My LED is 32” above and set at a low/medium level…..so I can’t imagine it’s too much light.
They are getting 24/0 of light.
Can anyone help out……
