First Time Grower - Advice Welcome

I would put your light up a little. HPS is alot different than the MH you've been running. I would start flower with it 24-30 inches above canopy, move it down as much as they let you.

 

[grimmreefer]

I try to shoot for 12-14 inches above by the last few weeks

 

[TopGroDog]

OK appreciate the advice been a long time coming to crack up now

Anyone have an ideal what this is or what may be causing it

 

[The Dealer]

Looks like light burn but I could be wrong. Whats the temperature at the top of the plant?

 

[TopGroDog]

The lights are 2ft away I don't see how there getting better a little research I think it iron deficiency.. I'm waiting

 

[CronicHempHog]

2 ft off the tops shouldn't be any issue according to the chart
gotta agree may be iron deficiency
what kinda soil?

 

[TopGroDog]

Canna Coco nutrients A&B and Golden Tree

 

[The Dealer]

Very strange that you'd have a deficiency using coco specific nutes. Could it be the PH of the water is off?

 

[The Dealer]

Sorry I had a link to Iron deficiency but the website I used is banned from linking here. It def looks like Iron deficiency though. Mainly if the iron is there its the PH that is not allowing the plant to use it.

 

[TopGroDog]

Well I'm working on everything now..I'm running with iron deficiency.. So I flushed provide more iron..and did a foliar feed with the iron additive..let's wait and see...

 

[TopGroDog]

Thanks to everyone for their feedback and advice much appreciated..

 

[The Dealer]

That line of nutes you're using shouldn't be missing iron. Thats why I think its probably more to do with the PH being too high or low.

 

[grimmreefer]

Any luck?

 

[TopGroDog]

They still growing so I see at the end I lost 1 out 10..my first grow..I didn't expect it to be prefect.. Just seeing can I I learn ready to put this one behind and move to the next..Thanks for the concern advice and checking back..@grimmreefer..and the rest..

 

[TopGroDog]

In the meantime here's the green side..doing great

 

[grimmreefer]

Did the iron take care of the problem?

 

[TopGroDog]

Not really.. This is the other side but I have 3 that are slow recovering.. Thinking if the don't pull thru by Friday I'll trash them and clean the pots to start my second round thinking of doing things a little different this time around

 

[TopGroDog]

I much longer before we should say things are ready to cut today is day 43 of flowering... On a 50-55 day strain and a 7-8 week stain...any advice
