hey guys, please help!
Environment
1x1x1.8m grow tent
600w hps solis tek dimmable w/ 6" cooltube + inline fan
5" centrifugal and carbon filter
6" clip fan for air movement
Plants
1x Freddy's best fem
2x WWxBB
Soil
Organic potting mix
15-20% 50/50 perlite/vermiculite
I germed these seeds like 20 days ago now, popped through probably 16 days ago. seemed fine when they came through, a slight bit of stretching as they werent under lights when they first came up. Re-buried two so there wasnt so much stem showing.
I had them in huge pots, like 12-15L, and they were stunted as hell. I got some advice on here that I was probably overwatering due to the soil being dry all the time as a result of being in such large pots. Then was told to move into way smaller pots which is what I did. So since I moved into smaller pots I dont need to water as much. In the bigger pots, the top 2-3" were dry in 24 hours, yet when I transplanted into smaller pots the soil stayed moist for like a good 48 hours and so I basically hadnt watered for three days.
They dont look good, theyre starting to fade, cots are going yellow. They didnt really like lots of water, they seem to not be changing now that Ive held back on watering and I have no idea whats going on.
The only thing I can think of is would it be possible for me to have watered too much water on each occasion therefore flushing nutes from the soil? Like I got quite a bit of runoff for the first few waterings and usually at least 10% runoff there after. I use rhizotonic and I used 1/10th strength nutes once but then back to watering normal.
It just doesnt make sense, lighting is good, temps are good. the leaves arent showing signs of burn just faded. cots kinda look burnt but also just look spent like theyre drying up because theyve wasted all their nutes. Rootball was good on transplant, held soil together would have fulled a large mug! whats going on? Thinking maybe I flushed out nutes in soil and should maybe start using some?
That is what they look like now. the one in the purple pot is slightly healthier than the others as it was the one that wasnt re planted deeper after stretching. they were all planted into these pots 4 days ago. notice cots fading and going yellow. Thinking maybe its an N deficiency?? due to too much runoff and having to water these big pots heaps.
Here are the pots they were in and the set up
Have moved the plants further from light prob about 30" now and turned down to 400w
Would like to hear your thoughts and discussions.
