. I have a 4x4 tent 2 ac infinity ionbean t24s as high as they can go in the tent, about 20" above the canopy. They are on level 10 my ppfd is on average low 800s. I have 2 6" clip fans running 24/7 above canopy and 2 below. One on top is an osolating fan. I did let the fans on top get to close to the canopy for a few days when they really grew in flower a week ago. They are in week 5 of flower. They are 3 white widow and one bag seed. Only 2 are doing it and they are the ones the fans blew on to much I think for a few days. I’m just making sure I’m not assuming it’s from the fans and I don’t have other issues. Thanks in advance and let me know what i left out.
Normal wear and tear and nothing to worry about. Be aware that a plant will move quite a bit on its own even in the absence of fans. You can see it if you watch a time-lapse video of a plant growing.

I’d definitely thin it out just a little bit. Take some of those reachers that block the lower buds. Not a whole lot. You want air to move around in the as well so no mold/mildew buildup occurs.
Overall, plant health is looking good. I second the idea to take a couple damaged leaves and looking at both sides under a scope. Damage looks like it could be pest related. Have you ever sprayed anything on these girls? Could definitely benefit from some defoliation!
Lol you know me BigTrout. I did cut the damamaged leaves out and cleaned up a few more. It helped a ton with humidity. I do water daily to spec with cannas coco guide. I have been running the boost at 15 since i did the PK week. I hope its worth the extra nuts $. My guess is 3 weeks also. The outdoor plants… have not been moved yet. I am going to this weekend. Work has been crazy this month and i have not had much time. Here is a pic from today. I guess i am just preparing myself for stuff to go south. I have not sparayed the plants with anything yet. I am running my lights as hard as they can, lvl 10. I assumed id have light burn by now.
I dont know how to measure just cal. I did flush the coco yesterday with ro water until ec and ppm were in spec then waited a little bit then feed them like normal. I seen mixed reviews on this process but it seemed liked reseting the coco couldnt hurt.
That makes sense! I never thought of that, thanks for letting me know. I will do that tomorrow when i feed. I have been waiting for them to tell me to turn the lights down some by showing me signs of stress / light burn. My plan is to lower the light level at week 7 by 1 or 2 levels. I just started week 6 now. Or should i leave it where it is? I have seen on charts the last few weeks of flower DLI should be lowered some.
And honestly it’s not even technically light burn it’s your lighting is out performing your nutrient uptake.
You just mentioned your humidity is better so I’m gonna assume that means it’s lower. That will cause more uptake in water which will always cause more uptake in nutrients so nothing to worry about.
Yes sir, you can check the ppm of each solution, just remove the last reading from the equation.
DLI yes some lower light intensity to preserve terpenes along with no nutrient so light isn’t utilized as much by the plant.
When to do that? Gotta let the plant tell you that. No plant will finish the same or want the same things. Don’t stress it, it won’t make it break a grow, a lot of which is just bro science.
