New Growers Help

@bubblehok thanks bro. Yall hella helped alot. Appreciate🙏🏾🙏🏾. 

@420chemist, she looks better, keep doing what your doing. The new feed mix looks like she likes it. Don't over do it. When I do my water changes I'll pour 1/2-1 gal/ 2L-4L of PH'd water only, over the hydroton. I do this after I've drain the rez and before I refill it. I then remove this water before I refill. It seems to help rinse salts from the clay pebbs. I also use beneficial bacteria so I put 2X the amount in this rinse water.

  It looks like we're at about the same time line, just started flower. Good recovery from the above pics, so just go slow for a couple of days and let her recover. Then try and VERY slow increase the nutz and the Cal/mag. When I do my add backs, I make sure it has Cal/mag and the EC is the same or slightly higher EC than what's in the mix already. This keeps the EC slowly climbing (once you get into her EC sweet spot). If the EC starts climbing on it's own or you see the leaf tips turning down in a claw fashion, or brown burnt leaf tips, then it's too high so just dilute slightly till this stops. My target is 4ml per gal of Cal/mag by week 4 of flower, but I go slowly ramping up to that in the weeks before. Some strains are hungrier than others and mine is a Gorilla,,, soo..lol  Idfk lol

  Good luck man, your getting her under control, nice. Go easy and you'll be pleasey'ed!! lol 

@woodi2 thanks for the tips. Will keep them in mind. 🙇🏾‍♂️🙇🏾‍♂️🦾🔥

Did some defoliation today. All bud sites showing  . Did the hydrogen peroxide wash also for the big plant.  Hopefully she recovers nicely. 

Heyy guys. Wanna ask a quick question. I realise leaves on my plant kinda look sad this evening. Will add a pic.  Am i giving too much light. I am still running 18/6 or it is normal for plants to look sad kinda down tired leves thru the course of the day. My ppm rose from 670 to 710. Had ph issues. Buh she seems to be stable around 6.0

@420chemist once a plant has reached its daily light integral they will naturally droop like that.  As long as it is towards the end of day its normal.  Some will also do this when they are first watered or when they need water.   Time of day it's happening and whether or not they bounce back after sleep or watering is key.

@shonuff  i am in hydro so they constantly in water. So this case i can switch to 12/12 or mantain the 18/6..

I wouldn't change the light schedule, but you could turn the light down just a tad if you see any issues from it.  Honestly though, you can just leave it be.  As long as you don't see discoloration in leaves or anything it's all good.

@shonuff thanks mate

 Initial ph when i checked with bluelab was around 5.5 and 5.7. 

Got my bluelab in today and boy my okd ph pen did a good one on me. Ph was way lower. Got it stable a bit will see how it goes. Anyone familair with lotus nutrients?

Started new line of nutrients yesterday. Ppm was around 800.. it is now 880 and the top fan leaves look much paler at the top than buttom leaves
mixed lotus base with advanced nuts additives with botanicare hydroguard. 

Did last defoliation . Fingers crossed

  Hey there @420chemist, I just happen to be in the neighborhood, and thought I'd stop by and say hi. lol Your babies are getting bigger, well done. If the EC is increasing then it's too high and you need to dilute it. Example if it goes from 800 to 880 in 24hrs, then reduce back down to 800 and check again in 24hrs. If it's still going up, dilute to 750. If the EC/PPM is going up then the PH should be dropping a lot too, fyi.

   Be careful with defoliating, it's easy to take off too much. I wouldn't remove anymore from yours. How high is your light above the canopy and at what power setting?   

 Checkout this chart, if you haven't, it works great for me. Glad you got the PH straightened out, it's a bitch when your working off incorrect information. good luck man.

Currently i cranked it to max,300W. The distance is   Fron canopy to light is 15inches. 
thanks alot for the explanation wiht the ppm and thanks for the chart will study it.  And the pic i sent ryt after defolition. So na touching them again till ready to be chopped . Hopefully i get there in one piece😂. Recommended by electric sky is  18-24. But i run outta space. Will rune it down a bit. 

@420chemist, oh yes, you have an electric sky. yeah those are very directional, imo. They have a concentrated beam of light that is very focused and intense. I always burned mine with them, but that's me. lol So my point is watch that they aren't bleaching the top portion of the plant. Mine would get a lighter strip down through the middle of the canopy and darker off to the sides and lower on the plant. It would follow the foot print of the light. It takes a good size canopy to see it, so a smaller plant may go unnoticed. I'm not say that's your problem, I'm just saying be on the look out for bleaching from these lights.
