Hey guys, I grew this plant as an experiment, first in a yogurt glass, then in a Solo cup, and then, still being alive, I decided to transplant it into a 3 liter (1 gallon) airpot.
This plant has always been outdoor, and never got a lot of light, but as it was starting to get big I put it in my 40x40x120cm growbox and started a 12/12 light cycle, also to test my self-made light.
All this 4 days ago. The plant reacted well, growth continued and no signs of discomfort were shown.
Aside from today, when I got home from work, I find the leaves (the ones closest to the light) in this state:
Some leaves also have brown/black spots on the edges:
Unfortunately the place where I live is being attacked by a heat wave, and it is difficult to maintain the temperature inside the growbox, which in fact oscillates between 27.5 and 29.2C (80 - 84F). The humidity varies between 45 and 57%. I thought it might be too strong heat or light stress (I was going with 57W at 15/20cm distance).
So at the moment I lowered the power of the lamp and raised it to 30cm, I also added a fan inside the tent. The air intake is passive while I have the extractor always active.
