No that’s not true the only thing you said was I need to lower the power of the lights and didn’t give any reason as to why. From everything that I’ve seen and read 350 ppfd is about right.

It really is a shame you I’m not even dismissing anyone advice but if someone will give me an actual reason and back that up with facts I’m gunna be more interested to know what they know instead of just saying something like “looks like light stress turn down your light” with nothing to back there claim. I argued against it because my shaded parts of the plant which are the lower parts have stripping indicated a mag deficiency while the top looks a lot better. Mag is mobile and moves from the bottom to the top. Everything to me indicated a mag problem.

More intense lighting makes them need more food. But I agree. It looks mostly like Mg deficiency.

Just good for thought I’m in other fourms and fb groups which no one mentioned it being light burned yet 75 percent did mention epsom salt. So either he’s the smartest guy out of us all or he had a light issue and fixed it by turning his light down. If I go through all the steps and that’s what it actually is major props to him though. As mentioned I did note it.

Your base nutrients contain magnesium. You're adding CalMag which contains magnesium. Yup. Definitely needs more magnesium.

I suppose the lack of magnesium is causing the serrated edges of the leaves to curl also.

Glad you got it fixed.

they are hardly curling and only on new growth. Plus I had the humidifier off all night lol. But if you don’t see the difference hit the pipe a few more times bud
