homeboy just put on the foil to battle green algae growth.

good eye, but even with the lack of good reflective material...the plants should look healthy.

by the way...buy a bottle of fountec/algaecide...2 drops a gallon for treatment. 1 drop per gallon for maintenance..to treat green algae.

I just read a note in the Indoor Bible on the subject of perlite on the top of soil to keep the algae on the perlite, so it wouldn't spread to the soil...FYI

Jorge says, "add a 1/2 inch of perlite on top of your soil to help prevent the spread of algae to the soil.

Most of the leaves are badly drooping and curling downwards, I'm growing in perlite, under a 600W HPS 20/4 and using Canna, Vega @ half strength due to some fert burn a few weeks ago. They are sitting just over a foot away from the light and have an oscilating fan for air circulation. Ph has been kept round low 6's, being watered 1-2 times a day by hand... I've tried cutting watering right back, i've flushed Rating: 5
