Leaf taco please help

You got all 3 correct. Use your exhaust fan to control temps, raise lights up to the top (remove ratchet ropes too) and turn up to 100%.

Watch your temps, it may go higher than 82 if you dont run 100% light too often. If it does, increase exhaust one notch at a time and let it stabilize before adjusting further. Cloudline is a great fan, I use the same one.

Remember, your tent temps will always correlate to your room temp (e.g. hotter days outside will require higher exhaust speed or a/c inside)

Alright I’ll give it a try for a few days and see what happens. Either way it is growing. Flipped to 12/12 Friday night and it’s grown 2” to Sunday morning. I understand. I’ve got my lung room under control I just always thought cooler temps were desired.

I would never grow in coco with dry amendments first. So take this with a grain of salt. But they look thirsty to me, if your trying to feed the plants with biology in the medium and dry food it requires high moisture levels. Daily watering to maintain happy bennies.
daily watering to make sure your plants have access to nutrients.

also the taco leaves are a tell that the plant is not “transpiring” correctly. Meaning it cannot sweat because they are so dehydrated. Thus the taco leaves. Over time this will create more problems low yields and stunted growth for sure.

and this is when I get alittle pissed at canook for pushing this type of growing method. It’s not great,

coco should be used for flood to waste style gardening.

peat based medium for soil gardening.

The only thing that throws me off with the really bad tacoing ones that are more dark is, they’re in an earth box with living soil. The bigger bushy one is the coco mix

Makes even more since to me since living soil requires much more moisture. Any living soil should be water every day. Your volume of water may change slightly day to day but get it in their. Maybe invest in some bluMat carrots to help you visualized the soil/plant demand on water by automating. Blumat only open up irrigation when the plant/soil is thirsty and takes the guess work out for you.
