First post so be gentle. I've filled out the form below.
I've had few problems in the past but this time around getting some really strange stuff for me. I have pictures of 2 plants, but from same seeds and treated the same. The one has the burning, the other has a bit of the curling/canoeing but this just started and might be from me adding extra pH in last watering to try and attack plant #1. I have a third plant that looks even worse than #1, so I'm willing to do drastic experimentation on that one.
Suggestions?
What is your experience level? (first timer, novice, experienced...) between novice and experienced. I've been growing for about 8 - 9 years.
Your Equipment:
.1) Type and wattage of lights. (MH, HPS, CFL's, tube fluorescents, LED's) Fluorescents. A set of 4 24" in an overhead hanging fixture, 24 watt T5 6500K, two 48" T5 fluorescents vertical on the sides 54w 6500k
.2) Distance from tops? 4 - 6"
.3) Reflector type? (cool tube set-up, bat wing, enclosed reflector, bare bulb...) enclosed reflector for overhead, bare bulbs with clear covers on verticals
.4) Is there a consistent fresh air supply? yes
.5) Do you have an exhaust fan and a circulation fan? a circulation fan that blows across the overhead fixture
.6) What are the bulb wattages, kelvin ratings, and schedule? 24w 24", 54w 48" 6500k 18 on 6 off
Your medium:
.7) Specific brand and type of soil, (coco, peat based soilless...) and anything you've added to it. (vermiculite, perlite, worm castings...) Fox Farm Ocean Fresh nothing else
.8) Size of container. 5 gallon for each plant
.9) Did you use peat pucks (or similar) to root clones or germinate seedlings? germinate seedlings
Your nutrients and water:
10) Source of water? (tap, bottled or filtered) What's it's ph before adjusting? filtered tap. Water is about 6.5 - 7 after filtering
11) Method of checking water ph. (ph pen, test strips, aquarium test kit...) General Hydroponics pH control kit for checking and adjusting
12) Method of adjusting water ph. (phosphoric acid, white vinegar, hydrated lime, PH Up...) General Hydroponics pH control kit for checking and adjusting
13) Specific brand and N-P-K ratio for each bottle. List dosages (quantity per gallon) and current feeding schedule. B'Cuzz A and B 3-0-3 and 0-2-4 respectively for growing, B'Cuzz 0-13-14 for flowering stage 1-2 mL per L. Feeding only after a couple weeks of being in new soil. Watering when soil is dry or minor drooping occurs. I also check with a soil moisture meter
14) How often are you watering between feedings, and how much per watering? As above
15) Any additives or tea's? (Superthrive, CalMag, molasses, Mother's Earth...) CalMag during flowering
16) Are your ph levels stable, or do they fluctuate? pH is pretty stable
17) What is your ingoing water's ph? ...your runoff ph? Ingoing 6.5 - 7. Outgoing I just checked and was about 5. This seems normal (?) for FFOF.
18) Do you foliar feed? If so, with what, how often, and at what time do you spray? no
Your growroom:
19) Indoors or outdoors? indoors
20) What size of closet, room or hut? room. 10 feet by 20 feet for room. area for growing is about 4 feet by 2 feet, lots of air. laundry room with air handler for heat pump in room.
21) What are the temps and humidity levels while lights are on? ...With lights off? lights on 80 degrees tops at 35%, off 72 - 75 and 30 - 45%.
22) Have you seen signs of insects in the growroom? No
Your strain:
23) What strain are you growing? (Indica dominate or Sativa dom?) BC Bud Blueberry feminized mostly indica
24) From seeds or clones? seeds
25) Is this an autoflower strain? no
