First 3 of these 4 are looking how I think a plant should look. One is a lighter color with tips down. It makes me wanna say over water except I dont believe that's the case. Well unless this one uptake is significantly less than the others but pot isn't heavy. All 4 have had same treatment.
Oh yah. Ffof no additional except watered at ph6.7. That's a correct ph. I ordered 2 meters and a 12 pack of calibration powders. Lol house water is 7.2 and 130ppm. They are 9 days old

I am going with option 2, don't over think too much. Your plants will let you know if there are any real problems.

with FFoF keep an eye out for Cal/Mag deficiencies and make sure you start feeding a bit after maybe week 3 or 4

I am top dressing with dr earth veg and flower. I was planning on day 21 first feeding 50/50.... then 21 days later (day 42) last feeding maybe 60/40 flower/veg. Maybe day 28 for the first. This is my first time ffof so I dont know how it runs out exactly.

You think I'll need it running hps? I have calmag on hand so it's not an issue.. I just read alot and it seems to go hand in hand with led. I also water once a week with recharge

yes. I think the lights have nothing to do with the amount of cal/mag the plant needs...

let me clarify my statement. keep an eye out for cal/mag deficiencies.

make sure you are feeding it actual nutrients beyond the 3rd or 4th week. It will not necessarily need additional cal/mag, it WILL need FOOD.

Must be on that good paranoia bud. Nice plants man and good luck on the journey. It doesn't take a lot of interaction your just maintaining an environment most of the time.

Thanks. This is now day 13 pics. The main issue with me is after such a long break in growing is I forgot patience. I forgot how slow things are. When your excited to start a grow, whether its your first or first in awhile, not over thinking/over stressing is big. Gotta take it down a gear and let the plant grow. Provide the atmosphere and food and reap the benefits.

Nice! they grew a lot since the first pics. Especially the first and last pics. Its good you care for your plants like you do, its better to be proactive than reactive now that I think about it. Most people wait until massive damage sets in to get help and its usually too late to correct without losing time/yield.
