hi, ive just recently decided to start growing my own weed, obviously! i went shopping and the guy gave me a package deal of 1x20l nft, 1x600w hps, optimum grow a and b and optimum bloom a and b. im growing A.M.S in my cupoard which is about 7foot wide but only 1-1/2 ft deep. the seeds germinated quite slow with taking just over a week. it is two weeks since i placed my plants into the nft tank after them having a decent enough root system. i read that plants can grow fine during vegetation with 24hr lighting (an option i thought i should take as its -1c outside!!) my grow room is 30c at the moment and i have a fan running slow to improve circulation.
now comes the problems.........
as you can see in the pictures ive posted, some of the older growth especially at the bottom of the plant but also at the top is turning yellow and drying out. my light is about 3 1/2ft away from the tops of my plants, there is also i have noticed on one of my plants, the main stem at the bottom has some sort of black rotting on it, ive touched it and its hard but its discoloured and turning black, only on one tiny bit of the stem though. the leaves seem to be drying right out,some going brown and some going yellow. i have recently had my first water change and the plants all dramatically wilted and the leaves dropped. ive read that it can be normal for plants to discard the yellowing leaves but they still seem quite strong at the branch if that makes sense. can anyone help me and?! im currently running the cycle of nutrients as advised on the bottle which is 3.5ml/litre water of each a and b for both grow and bloom. any help would be greatly appreciated as im trying not to panic because its my first grow. thanks!
