Yet another newbie

Uh oh, u think lights not cutting it?

All good man. They do that when you go to flower. They double in size usually at least. Just part of the process nothing to worry about. Lol. Didn’t mean to make you think something was wrong.

Hey guys! Week 3 and she's huge, just noticing a bit more droop to the upper leaves, could this be light stress or maybe a deficiency? Cheers fellas

Droop like that is usually caused by poor watering practices. How have you been feeding her?

what’s the height above the highest part of the canopy?

rule of thumb, is if the plant is working towards the light, the light is at a good height, if the plant is working away from the light, it’s too low/close.

in most cases with a blurple light, the height should be 24 inches above top canopy in veg, and closer to 8” above canopy.

if the light is at a good height and not causing any issues, it could be
Over watered...

Good tip. My led are pretty intense. Noticed this morning my seedlings are not pointing to the light. They are not overwater have great humidity and good temp. Light is clearly too close. Moved it up one foot and will check tomorrow. I was operating off PPFD but apparently they wanted less that 250.

Sounds like a good plan my friend. Hopefully they pick back up.

Cheers for the advice guys, I think it was just a false alarm as they've perked right back up. Picture was taken just before lights out so I think she was just getting sleepy.

Good catch brother!!

Good catch brother!!

A bit annoying because I have multiple strains and some want more light than others.

Hi guys/gals!

First grow here, looking for some advice on when to switch these girls, and any other observations you might have .
I apologise for the vague history!

Unknown strain clones
3.5 weeks in coco/perl, unknown time in rockwool
Coco canna ab 4ml/L
2x 300w 'greenfingers' leds
fan+extractor
fed daily, 2.5L each
650ppm in, 450 out
Ph of solution is 5.5
Roughly 18/6hr cycle

I was advised later that one may be a few weeks older, which is evident. They've shot up quickly and seem happy to my eye. One thing I've noticed is extremely purple stems which I'm hoping is genetic.

Look forward to hearing from you, cheers!

Oooo....pretty plants! Welcome! MX? Are you in Mexico? If so congrats on the laws changing <3

Thanks mate! No not in Mexico, Australia so no celebration yet.

Shes still somehow growing so I've had to re-engineer my light fixture, about 5'8" now. Pretty white tentacles everywhere!
I'm a little worried about humidity sitting at 75 (we've had a lot of rain here) any observations or tips would be greatly appreciated!

Last two pictures are of her sister who is either stunted or a different strain, not sure.

Hey guys! One of these girls is nearing completion, just wondering if you guys think I should harvest today?
Not expecting any huge yield off this one, but it won't go to waste haha
