Welcome to the forum. First, an alternative to the Tribus is fish shit. @Nicky uses it and loves it. I also use the Tribus and it is pricey. I got free sample of the fs to try. Head to their web site if you want a sample. It is a good sized bottle they give you too. I have never used soil my self. I am terrible at leaf reading for the most part. @AfgVet @Covertgrower @Hellraiser @dbrn32 @Myfriendis410 would be who I would go to my self to ask about this. Some one should drop by soon and should be able to help you out :grin:

First I’d bump the light up to 50% or so.

Second; were pictures taken close to end of day cycle? Plants will adopt a posture before lights out and again before lights on.

They do not look to be drooping but guarding which can also be a root issue or over-watering. I would suggest doing a pot lift to determine when to water.

Same here, don’t water a heavy pot.

I’ll raise them now thanks, it’s been 4 days since I last watered and still feel a bit moist. They perked up beautifully last water then started looking this way 2 days ago. Is there a chance my soil is compacted?

I’ve had FFOF compact on me but only late in flower.

Thanks for the help. One more question, my current temp is at 80 since raising light to 50% I’m assuming it’s only gonna get higher when I raise again. How can I combat the heat? I have 2 fans for circulation and 1 pointing above the light

Need to increase your exhaust airflow. That or add active cooling. A lot of growers reverse their day/night cycle for this reason as well.

Currently using ac infinity t6 to exhaust air outside my window and I’m using a t4 intake fan. My room temperature is only 75 degrees and can’t really lower it. I’m kinda stuck in what to do

Where is your tent located?
Some people put them in a spare bedroom and block off the heat ducts or they cool the room as @Myfriendis410 explained.

Any questions feel free to ask

I’m growing in the corner of my room which is currently at 72 degrees, inside tent it’s 78 degrees 57% humidity

Just 4 days ago after watering all leaves were pointing up nicely, I think people call it praying. Then about 2 days ago plants started drooping some leaves turning color

If they pray to much they are hot

Dang you can sleep with a tent in your room the fan would drive me nuts.

Good advice above.
Run lights at night, drop your thermostat at night or cover your vents day or night.
Vent to the outside window and always keep your fan going
Run an AC unit in the room and vent it outside of course.

Aye I live in a city not sure if I’m allowed to say where but it’s noisy so I’m used to it. I have it at 18/6 scheduled from 8am-2pm I guess I can change it to noon-6pm. Thank for all the help :slight_smile: I’ll keep you informed if you don’t mind the update
