First of thanks for all these timely replies. Now, as to the Heat, our mini split ac IS broken. it was new, and sprung a coolant leak. We are limping with a backup ac, I have a second backup ac i will likely install in the next day or 2. I am Totally New to Hydro, i always grew soil back in SC, never measured EC. I did not grow at all for 8 years. started back for a couple years and stopped again. then this job showed up, I was rusty coming in. The mothers in soil are doing fine.. It was not my idea to run all these strains on my first run.. hazes, indicas, mixes... its research and development as the bossman puts it and was his plan, lights table, co2, everything his plan. We did not expect our well water to RO so high, we did not expect the ac to die right when we started needing it, and the part to take for ever coming. I certainly didnt expect this much trouble with the grow, maybe i should have. Now all that said. I am going to sift through all these replies, and I ask you guys to keep em coming. No we do no plan to sell this run, it was as i say, a research run and we have had problems. Mind some of those pics with dark buds are also Purple bud, so expect the buds to be dark.
I can take constructive criticism all day, especially when i know i have issues. what did lead me to bleaching is that some outside plants look fine and i can actually see outlines of upper leaf shadows on some discolored leaves (look for lines of red and green and red and white). As for dropping the lights down, part was to combat the heat, part was for the bleaching, but you guys say thats not it. I will post a few of the healthier plants. It may be tomorrow lights are off till 2 am.
If you wanna be a smart ass and say im a problem cuz im struggling, well im not gonna say what im thinking. My Mama told me not to say anything if i cant say something nice. But if you think maybe im not a problem and you just jumped to conclusions maybe try to help educate someone who IS in a bit over their head.
Again please keep the input coming.
have a look at this outter plant. almost no discoloration.. there are more of these on the outside that look generally healthy, its what confused me.
