Decided showing showing the 4x8 off while it looked like shit was a bad idea so I cleaned it up

Hey @floppyjalopy, congratulations on the new tent.
Lets take a look at your plants. First how often are you watering? Its amazing how many problems can appear with overwatering. Looking at the tips of some of your leaves I can see some browning, which could indicate a little nut burn. Did the leaves clawing down happen after your feeding? Clawing leaves can be a sign of to much nitrogen. Hows your runoff ph, falling out of range can lead to many issue.
What nutrients are you feeding ?
Growing in soil ?
Lets ask someone with more experience what do you guys think ? @Covertgrower @Hellraiser
I agree there’s some clawing but it’s not too bad. I wouldn’t feed much more.

First I only water when the bag feels light and the super droop in that most recent pic there did happen right after a feeding. My ph run off was 6.6 and my ppms were right around 900 I am growing 60-70% happy frog 20-25% perlite the rest is vermiculite as for nutes flora trio as well as some supplements liquid kool bloom diamond nectar and floralicious plus and I also do the occasional foliar spray with a little molasses. Do you think its time to stop using floragro have read stop but other say they use all the whole time strain is orange kush I got from a friend from who ordered online ps ty for the help
@floppyjalopy Based on the look of your plant, Id say you could cut back on the nutriants containing nitrogen.
I wanted to add this youtube video, I find this guys channel very interesting. Maybe you can get some guidance that will work for you, He grows with all gh nutriants, even uses happy frog. Seems to grow some nice plants
Let me know what you think - Cannabis Nutrient schedule for beginners. - YouTube

Looks like it would grow weed just fine. Although they are most likely over selling effective footprint.

Diy lights are now powering fruits and veggies in my 4x8 until my hlg and viparspecrra light arrive in like 3 days super excited
@Dave101 the upgrade from the diy was totally worth the 90 bucks I spent diy I do believe would work well but the purchased light is much better with less draw from the wall
@floppyjalopy thanks for the update, I’m definitely looking for some proper lighting. I’m curious what lights did you end up purchasing form hlg and viper ?
