Hi.
In my last grow, (DWC) I noticed that as the plant grew, the new growth was paler green, but as the leaves grew bigger they got darker.
I'm now into my second grow (Drip, Perlgiht), and I am seeing the same thing but on a much larger scale.
The new growth is very yellow, taking longer to darken up, and possible isn't reaching the same dark green colour.
I thougt it might be one of three things.
Over Watering.
I tested this last night by, using less watering cycles, The plants didn't like it, and as you can see in the pics have wilted this morning, I have changed back to my old watering secdule.
Nute streagh too low.
I am running at EC1.0, Which was what I was at at this stage of growth in my DWC grow. But as these plants are twice the size as the plants I was growing last time, maybe they need a stronger doese?
Light Bleach.
My last grow I was using a 400HPS this grow I am using a 600HPS with an air cooled hood. I'm wondering if I have the light so close to the plants that it is bleaching the coulor out of the tops?
