Beginner Grow Problem: Unidentified Issues

[Bhandkisan]

Hi All I am a first time grower and i have ran into multiple problem which i am not able to identify on internet.

My growing specs
1.2*1.2*2 grow tent
600w HPS bulb- Currently bring used at 400w to lower temperature
1 humidifier
2 circulation fans
2* 12 litre pots
1 in line fan with carbon filter
Coco medium
Growing Auto Purple Amnesia
Nutrients: 1ml/ltr of Shogun coco Part A&B at consistent ph of 5.8
Watering every 3-4 days
Current stage week 5th vegetative
Temperature 25-35c
humidity between 35-50%
Light 23 hr
Fungicide used cannacure since last 2 weeks twice every week

I have ran into multiple problem, and i am having hard time zeroing in to one route cause of the problem, i ma not sure if the issue is related to over heating, over watering, leaf septoria (yellow spots), broad mites (blistering), calmag deficiency ( some brown spots), or other bugs( green perlite and chewing of leaves.

So i don't know whats going on but i nerd some guidance on how to fix my plant before its too late.

@stoneotter thoughts?

welcome to @Bhandkisan
maybe couple of pics of the plant in natural light can help the members out

Coco medium


Watering every 3-4 days

coco needs watered at least daily to runoff. there's more going on tho

Hey @PK1 i have attached new pics in better lighting

Hey @bluter i was watering everyday initially but the fungus was developing super quick so i had to lower my frequency, also tried EC testing, but my ec meter never stabilize to a single figure for me to calibrate it, gave up on that and just measuring ph now.

im not that exparinced yet to give you pointers. I have few suspesions but i'll just stick around to hear from well exparinced members. I'm sure someone will help you out soon. nice looking plant tho.

mean while in my signature you can find few helpfull links. have a look at plant abuse chart written by @Smokin Moose
and see if you can find a match with the pictures

Thanks for asking PK1 wish I knew. There's some funkyness (things I don't understand). It sounds like you're doing everything right to me. Beside waiting for the work you have done to help and maybe you have what looks like possibly a slight overwater look to them, I don't know. One of the pics looks like it's flowering kind of. Maybe @Pennywise has something in his bag of tricks.

i was looking at maybe over water too .. the rest are kinda happy though. ph could be drifting outside as a result of the feed sched too. that'll trigger all sorts of stuff.

I think watch close for a few days to see what happens. Yea happy.

 

[Bhandkisan]

Thanks All for your views, i will watch it for few days and see if the issue persists.
do you guys suggest any change to nute schedule? Should i water more frequently since it is coco, but I don't want to risk overwatering.

 

[Pennywise]

I think ph is too inconsistent, ph every day if you have to.

well, my thoughts too but there was this ..

Coco medium

Watering every 3-4 days

 

[Pennywise]

Gotta water every day in coco, always with nutrients.

Thanks for the advice i will get dtarted with watering everyday and post again in few days with update. Hopefully whatever is wrong gets sorted soon.

Hey I have made some changes, like watering and giving them nutes everyday, maintaining Ph above 6 and here are my results.

Both plants are dramatically different, given the same schedule of feeds given to them. I am doubting that one plant which has grown significantly, but is not in a good health as compared to other plants is due to defoliation stress caused by excessive defoliation done until a week ago. I am afraid i might have caused irreparable damage to the plant. I am not worried about yeild because i already have enough, but would it affect the quality of the bud too?

And would reducing light hours to standard 12 hour cycle help destress or cause more issues?

 

[bluter]

most autos like the longer day. you can reduce hours, but it might rush a bit faster to finish effecting yield, now that you are in flower. lotsa growers toss an auto or two in with the photos they run on a 12/12 for space reasons.

 

[Bhandkisan]

I am not worried about yeild no more, i am actually running out of space and height, its just a feet away from light and no scope of more adjustment. I am just trying to be sure if reducing light hours would not affect my quality of the bud, i would be happy if i get the current level of yeilds.

 

[bluter]

miles of debate on it. depends what you want to believe ...

if the light is strong enough - ppfd - then i'd say no. if the light is not strong enough - then yes, i'd say less exposure definitely effects both yield and quality.


this holds for photos as well as autos.

 

[Bhandkisan]

Couple of question here, I just have a month and a half at my current place, is there any way i can fasten up the process of flowering and get them to mature as quickly as possible? One of my plant has grown enough and i am not worried about yeild anymore, just want to harvest ASAP

One of my plant have half the pistils turned orange and trichromes i see most of them as cloudy, but still have some transparent ones. Is it a good time to flush?

 

[Pennywise]

Those still have weeks to go, harvest now and you’ll give up yield and flavor. The high will be very up and racy.
