I could use your guys help diagnosing a problem that gotten worse over
the last few days. Here's the info on them:
Plant is about 4 weeks old
Lights are two 40w Cool White fluoros running 24 hours a day, fixed about
1"-2" from the top of the leaves.
Soil pH is at 6.8
I've been waiting until the moisture meter reads about a two before
watering
I just fertilized for the first time about five days ago, with some 30-10-10
fertilizer diluted to 15% strength.
Soil is a mix of potting soil/compost and perlite
The room is 78% with good ventilation and a fan blows on the plant and
them steem is strong but flexible.
The lower leaves are drooping and yellow with some small greyish spots,
they've been light that for about a week and a half now, just recently,
about two days ago the leaves just above it started turning yellow and
then cupped upwards, they too now have some almost greyish/black ash
looking stuff on them.
At first the light was too far away and that is why the distance between
the bottom and next internode is so great, the distance between the one
and the one after that is much less since the lights got moved lower.
I'm using two reflectors on the sides of the fixtures so it uses more of the
light, I did have a problem with white flies so I put in the tape you see in
the picture, I haven't seen any live ones since.
Any other information you guys could use I'd be glad to tell you, I just want
my plant to be healthy.
