i crack a branch at the node every so often also while training. they heal as long as they arent ripped all the way off mostly, just a little wonky. it, and you will get better as you go. it took me atleast half the day to train 5 plants, now i can get it done in about 30 minutes. post some more...
id agree on the cutting back on the watering and nutes. but dont totally stop with the nutes, may throw it into shock. the watering i would just space it out a little more. the roots need oxygen also and daily watering will compact your soil bad. letting it dry out some is a good thing. but...
ive got 4 of the bloomspect LED 1000w (183 +-3 actual watts) they sit about 30" above the canopy. i dont know anything about the cob lights or quantum boards.
again, it was not ideal soil lol i literally went outside and grabbed soil out of my yard. im sure there was dog shit and all the other wonderful things you find outside in it. ashamed to even say that hahahaha. i have my pots raised from the drip trays constantly. if a root pops through the...
itll be interesting to see how yours turns out and how mine turns out. when i watered my first plants every day i had ran into multiple problems. everything from nutrient deficiency to burning them, root rot and gnat flies. my soil was not ideal by any means. thats why im sticking to the once a...
i got the fox farm trio, not sure of the names currently. they were from a previous grow. dont get me wrong though, when i need them i will use them :D
i havent even picked up a nutrient bottle. still running on room temp 6.5 ph water. watering 2 gallons once weekly. 75% fox farm happy frog soil, 25% perlite in 5 gallon buckets.
id wait until more than just the top was dry. seedlings die from over watering. not saying you are. since the roots are not developed they pull moisture out of the air rather than the soil and the roots will die from being flooded.
focus on one good heavy watering weekly rather than 2 or 3 half gallon a week. you will run into root rot if the roots stay wet 100%. half a gallon every 3 days will keep that soil considerably wet. looks good other than that.
can you get a pic of the underside of that leaf? is it powdery? and the black specs... are they just dirt or some debris? interesting to say the least!
