alright, i didCannabis is an autotroph.
Google it.
a 1000W MH at 24inches away is WAY TOO MUCH LIGHT.
your plants don't need more than a 45W CFL (daylight) at 4 inches away, surely not that much more.
I use a 400w growlight (cool tubed as well) with plants about 4 times the size of yours at 30 inches from the plants and they are just as compact as they should be.
Yes, it might be over-feeding, it might be over-watering. BUT IT SURELY IS OVER-LIGHTNING AS WELL.
get the light AT LEAST 4 feet away from the plants.
if they strech to the light after a few days lower it a feet.
BTW, is your use a 1000w for 3 plants you can grow pretty nice trees. Don't put that energy to waste - keep vegging the plants as much as possible.
Just FYI. By the way, Uncle Ben gets credit for the quote3. High Light - yes, it’s true, you can give our faves too much light. Cannabis does not receive full sun from sunrise to sunset in its natural state. It is shaded or given reduced light levels because of adjacent plant material, cloudy conditions, rain, debris and dust collection on the leaf surface, twilight periods of early morning and late afternoon, and light intensity changes caused by a change in the seasons. Too much light mainly serves to bleach out and destroy chlorophyll as opposed to causing leaf cupping, but it often goes hand-in-hand with high heat for indoor growers. Again, back off on the light and concentrate on developing/maintaining an efficient and robust root system. Keep in mind that all but equatorial material receive less light during flowering than during the vegetative stage.
ive been taking it i just didnt think the light was really a problem.. its not like they wont get enough if i back it off, so i will.. in a couple of days once i see if the other stuff helps.. then ill see if moving the light helps, but i think its a combination of things that i did wrong lol ill fix one at a time and see what works, it's a learning experience either way.. thanks to everyone who helped me out much appreciated, and like i said i'd do im gonna come back and post in a week and let everyon eknow what i did vs how it turned out.. thanksGood luck.
Advice isn't any good if you don't take it.
