ok i'm using a 400 watt mh light in a grow space of 5ft x 4ft x 2ft i have some seeds that came out a bag of regular smoke(i know, i know lol but i also got some feminized crystal, ice, and white widow seeds too) I have the lights about 19 inches above plants temp is around 77-80 degrees and humidity is at 50-55% i have plenty of circulation and idk if it does anything but mixed up sum sugar and yeast. Some of my plants (the bag seeds only) have holes in the leaves is this normal or should i be worried. I have pics also and if ne one sees anything else please let me know lol these plants are about 3 wks old. Will keep posting till harvest thanks for the help guys and gals i will b n touch again i'm sure lol

oh yeah used distilled water to start in ebb and flow system added 1/4 strength nutrients ph has been at 6 throughout

I'm no expert, I'm on my third indoor grow now but i would just watch them and see if it happens to the more mature leaves. Doesn't look like you over did it on the flood time of your system and doesn't look like anything I've seen neauts do either. Is your light fixture air cooled? If not watch the heat level that reaches your babies. I have a friend useing 400w hps not air cooled with a built in balast and he keeps his light like 36" away at all times or risks cooking them. I didn't really think simple sugars help much in the vegatative state. I use Bud Candy and Black Strap Molasis in my flowering stage but not when vegging. Hope this helps :rasta:

Oh one more thing the temp in your enclosure doesn't always represent the temp getting to the top of your plants. To get an accurate temp hold your measuring device right at top of plant and see what that is, obviously with the light on.:rasta:

thanks for responding well the tube is air cooled about 78 degrees with the lights on (no intake was thinkn about hooking up one to the other side of tube) but thats hooked up to 6" outtake fan to carbon filter ?(do i even need it hookd up to that this early)and humidity has been about 45-50%gonna do the thermometer thing ya talked about tho i've just had it on the floor in the center of the room. also lights are about 19 inches above plants and tube doesnt feel warm i can easily hold my hand under it for a long time with no burning

They look fine. I didn't follow the whole yeast sugar issue, but whatever. What you are seeing in that leave is a bit of history. Plants aren't so good at correcting past mistakes if you know what I mean. Chop off a branch and it's not likely to grow back. Cut a leaf in half and it wont return. So knowing that, yes it's apparent that something went wrong early on. It's possible the sugar yeast issue did produce this effect, but they have long gotten over it and they look to be producing nice growth from here on. If the newest growth doesn't look normal then something else is going wrong. I'm not seeing that though. Those leaves will always look like that, but likely you fixed the issue and new leaves will look normal.

I think the sugar and yeast was mixed in separate container to make CO2, right?

Maybe the holes in the leaves are from bugs

Make sure that ph doesn't get higher than 6, better off having it from around 5.2 to 5.9 for best nutrient uptake.

Also might want to look into CalMag+ since you are in hydro and using distilled water http://boards.cannabis.com/hydroponi...lmag-plus.html:twocents:

hello thanks for responding the yeast and sugar issue was i'm using two 1 gallon jugs with a mix of 4 cups sugar and some yeast don't know if it does anything but was experimenting until i can get a real co2 system. and thanks for the post being a newbie isn't so bad as long as people are willing to share their experience and knowledge i also have more pics on my page on here feel free to look and any knowledge offered will b gratefully appreciated. also havent seen any bugs at all

[thattimeofyear]

ok gotta find out what cal mag + is but thanks will check into it.

idk what these are i know theres a million strains out there just was wondering if any one had any suggestions on what this may b as far as indica or sativa also in the middle and right pic is that a normal type of growth to be so bunched up like that with so many leaves sorry about all the questions guys I just got alot of free time
