Light stress / Burn What do you think?

Thanks for the info… Im in a coco / coir perlite mix, I water every day the drain off is crazy it literally drains most of the watering out… something i will adjust on my next grow… But…

as you say it is a healthy plant praying to the light so as long as i keep on top of it with watering im sure we can establish good root mass and get a solid yield.

I raised the lights - if it gets worse il check back and go to plan B / C which i agree may be something nutrient based… or soil based…

For slight light greening on them fan leaves what does this usually indicate?

Thanks BM

Yes for sure she is doing well. Slow down on the watering as well! Give it a dry back. Make sure the pot lightens up.

:rofl: what and let the leaves burn a little more??

sounds like good advice!!

The light green means it’s hungry but with organic (I’m not sure what your organic method is with coco/perlite) the plants sometimes just need some time to adjust to the medium. That’s why i pointed out that your new growth looks good, they may be adjusting. I love organic soil. Peat or coco based is fine but add in a organic dry nutrient mix (one for vegetables at the garden store is great) and perlite. If you can get your hands on good compost, you just need that and peat/perlite or coco/perlite and the plants will be happy. No PHing water required. They may take a moment to get used to the soil, but when they do they explode.

Light green and overfeeding doesn’t match icon_eek|nullxnull, that burnt tip may also come from a deficiency, what are you giving her? :sunglasses:

Ahh this sounds interesting yes i’ve got lots of experimenting to do as this is my first plant, sounds interesting il keep researching!

Soo… shes on Day 27, base nutrients / Calmag a little over half strength now as she gets a bit older. Soon to be increased to full feeding.

Will be adding in some Silicon & alternating between Rhizoton and Fish Sh!t later too!

( PS Please do remember this is my FIRST EVER plant from scratch… )

Ive researched alot to get this far so go easy haha ) :cowboy_hat_face: :man_farmer:

The plant is fine dude. New growers always looking at the plants, trying to find something to do. Like watering, topping, and obsessing over this or that nutrient deficiency.

LITFA.

Granted, i’m sure people do make a fuss of things that may not need touching…

but you’ve jumped on here telling me as a new grower trying to learn a thing or 2 to just leave it alone? so how long do i leave it alone for i’m quite interested?

Also… i’m sure i mentioned I saw crispy ends on the leaves maybe that went over your head… ?

@ReikoX has point and I guarantee he read the post and all subsequent post before posting

I’m also more surprised noone told you to LITFA before he did, there’s nary a plant I’ve seen from anyone that doesn’t have slightly browned tippy tips. Just a plant thing.

As a new grower, you’d think you’d take advice a little easier from seasoned folks here on the forum. This plant is semi set and forget… loooooottttt of wait time lol

There will come a point when you will understand what your plant is telling you, but that requires failing several times in several grows. You will find out by yourself that LITFA is the best medicine and plants will reward you after that.

I understand you may not find that advice useful at this moment, but is one of the best given right now … beer3|nullxnull

ok ok… I understand that but i also sense people love throwing that LITFA about and dont practice it themselves… I bet they spend all sorts of time in their grow rooms… but hey thats the beauty of it enjoy it!

not here to tell anyone how long they can spend with nature…

That being said I will take on board what you’ve said… and maybe one day il get the point of being able to LITFA…

I was just asking about some burnt tips… now im aware it means nothing and I can’t really say i was obsessing over it or getting a sweat on about it… just curious…

thats a wrap anyway! now LMTFA :crazy_face:

nahh jokes aside… i appreciate the more experienced growers informing me of manorisms that one shal develop

Might be better off asking your nute supplier.

haha… nahh its not that serious. shes all good! il invest in a dimmable later im very sure her 4 fan leaves were just pointing to the light…

and coming to think of it… Its true what people say the plant was telling me whats wrong literally!! haha

and you’re very fortunate he bothered to do so. @ReikoX may have already forgotten more about growing cannabis than you’re ever going to know…and is a solid dude to boot. act accordingly.
