    three plants - good till week 10 or 11 then problems

    Yeah, the spots are new in the last day or so. Earlier I had a problem with yellowing at the tips consistent with calcium def and corrected for it, but this looks more like something else. Yet it got worse when I added nutes. I am having a prob keeping it cool enough under the hid. Ambient is...

    three plants - good till week 10 or 11 then problems

    I think at this point it may be a combination of problems. I have moved them a little farther from the HID light and took 2 pictures. I am also starting two new ones that will not have to do without the HID for several weeks as these did. I took pictures of the 2 of them at one week. Thanks to...

    three plants - good till week 10 or 11 then problems

    I run the lights the 12 hours of night when ambient temps are lowest, and run two large box fans and a ceiling fan 24/7. Hand at the top of the plant is barely warmer than normal. Thermometer at base of plants shows normal (higher than ideal but less than 80) range.The drying/curling occurred...

    three plants - good till week 10 or 11 then problems

    I had used both the green square and flower on the mode wheel but never noticed the slide switches on the side. This I took today. Thanks. That being said I have a new problem. Plants did excellent for two days then started showing what I believe to be signs of nutrient burn, leaves drying and...

    a simple RTFM sig, but it had the two different user names, which confused me. I thought somehow two posts got linked. I am truly sorry. Yes, your advice was VERY good.

    three plants - good till week 10 or 11 then problems

    Everyone, THANK YOU! The change in lighting and getting my original light back seems to have saved the day. Both plants are improving GREATLY and very quickly. The tip on heat measurement using the hand is a good one. I found almost NO heat from most of the lights I had. I thought they were...

    Hey Jonnyquest, Thanks for the really helpful advice because I was not bright enough to use Google and find like a million conflicting posts and fuck things up worse before finding this forum, where I really got some help, from everyone but you. Bad advice found on Google and misunderstood is...

    Owe you a big THANKS for that advice. 24 hours later and already one of the 2 has improved at least 60% and is budding furiously well. On another happy note, my big light is finally repaired and I just put it into service again. YAY!

    I was afraid of getting them too hot and causing heat stress. Did not know they could be that close. I will move them closer immediately.

    The less full of the two looked like your photo (1393256563145.jpg 450x) before it started to bud, by the way. .

    three plants - good till week 10 or 11 then problems

    For the first two and the first two weeks of these three, I had a large high intensity light, that fell from the ceiling (Luckily it fell on an angle and missed them) at week two, shorting out some of its wiring. I am still waiting on the local handyman to get it fixed. It was about 4 feet from...

    three plants - good till week 10 or 11 then problems

    Lighting is definitely an issue. The light I used for the first two fell from the ceiling early on, and I am still waiting for it to be repaired (wires shorted) and had to make do, using a series of grow bulbs in domes and worklights, and a small fluorescent. But they were doing great with it...

    three plants - good till week 10 or 11 then problems

    Some fell off. IO have lately varied the waer schedule trying to see if over or under watering was at fault. It had no effect. I thought maybe heat stress was a factor because some leaves close to the lights looked like it, and experimented moving them away from it. No effect. I added a calcium...

    three plants - good till week 10 or 11 then problems

    This is only my second grow - both in soil in individual pots. First went well, not perfect but good results - a seed and its clone. This one was from three seeds of unknown types donated by three friends. All three plants were doing excellent until about the middle of week 10, when they first...
