Don't be such a baby

I've ran ph perfect, it's NOT perfect, checking ph is a good habbit

If you do it 5x , and it's fine, then yer probably ok till the next time u change your mix
I’m just being real, I mean if the bottle didn’t say perfect oh balance and I just thought it balanced it’s ph then I could understand lol... but honestly I come here to get informed and I love the sarcasm and humor from you guys but it usally comes with some type of advice behind it lol

Thanks man I though that might be issue but this is my first ever grow like literally never even attempted nothing, there about 8 inches away from the top of the plant
Did it happen over night or sort of gradual. And when was the last time you adjusted that light. Buy you some good silica too. It helps a ton w/stress

it happened very gradually.... and the light had been that height since I put into flower 5 weeks ago.... how do you know when the budding process is at its peak?

I have ph probes that cost 800 dollars for salt water corals aquariums. And ph up down with tester is almost as accurate. The key is waiting 15 minutes any time you add something that changes ph.

What type of light? but 8 inches is very low for any decent or even lowend light..You need to be at 12-18 inches...I would go to 12 and watch it..Cut away the dead leaves, theyre useless now, and watch for tips curling up, that happens first. If they curl on the edges, tips, thats the first sign of too much light..Yellowing comes later..I wouild say your optimal bud zone is 12-14 but couild be as high as 18 becacuse I dont know the light...SOrry for typos, my dog is phucking with me

Sorry about the pics guys thanks for advice here’s better pics

and it’s only top leaves bottoms are fine
Whats your temps? I think thatbits too cold too early in the grow.... leaves purple off in the cold... you should be cruising at 25c.

Having it too cold then slows down transpiration... aka nutrient transport and causes other nutrient issues.

Tell us your temps....
