Hey ev1... me again... By the way, thanks for the responses to my last post... helped a lot! But I am back again w/ a few more questions.
Ok, first question is about rate of growth when a plant is under 12/12... I began this light cycle 7/1/07 & the plant was 17.8" tall. It has been 1 week and she has grown to 22.5". My grow box is appx. 3'H x 2'D x 2.6'W and is rapidly becoming too small an area to contain the plant and lights. I have 10- 27W CFL's @1750 lumens ea. Will the plant continue to grow this quickly or begin to focus on flowering and slow down on the up and out growth? From bottom of the pot ( 4 gal. ) to the top of the plant it is alrdy 32" tall.
In my first post I listed specs on fert, grow medium, lighting and whatnot... and at that time she ( my plant ) was having a few issues. I made a few changes according to some of the insight that was offered. Primarily no more Hydro- peroxide (3%) added at all, and reduced fert application. Switched to BloomBurst- 10/50/10 and use fish emulsion- 5/1/1 as foliar feed every 3 or 4 days. Not a yellow leaf or burnt tip or edges anywhere on her... BUT some of the tips do curly down and some of the margins are folded down as well. Is this still a sign of over fert?
And finally, if you look at the pics included with this, you will see that the new growth is lighter in color than the rest of the plant... this Does however even out to the same green as the rest of the plant within a day or 2. Is this normal or another issue with over fert or some sort of deficiency?
Thanks for all the help, this site is great and has been a terrific source of info for me as a first time grower.
