Woke up this morning to bright yellow tips on both my girls. Its more on the bigger of the two. Is it time for me to move my light up a little bit? Or am i doing something else wrong. I want to stop any spread of problems. Thanks
The plants looks great. Yellow tips indicate nute burn. You should be fine because it looks slight and may have more to do with the nutes in the soil than anything.
The plants look big enough to water until runoff. PH is on the high end of the good zone. 6.5 is the sweet spot for me. Your ladies will likely outgrow the 3 gallon pot. You may want to consider getting something bigger. I use a ten gallon fabric pot. That gives the plant plenty of room and time to grow into nice health plants. They are cheap on Amazon.
Great feedback, I agree that’s not an issue with lights. Those tips are just barely discolored I wouldn’t even worry about them at this point.
@Ztr114 is the ph of 6.8 going into the pot or coming out, or maybe a better question would be how are you testing? Ideally you would set your ph prior to going in, then water to runoff and test the ph and tds/ec of the runoff. That would give you best idea of what’s going on in your root zone.
To be honest i havent invested in a proper meter yet. The 6.8 was a rough estimate because im using the dropper liquid to measure. Im probably closer to 6.5 now i wrote that for previous posts. Ill be buying a meter this weekend. I measure the water before and ive checked after as well.
don’t buy a cheap meter, u won’t be happy,
u don’t have to get a $100 Blue Lab, but the $50 Apera pH20 is as cheap as i’d go.!
if need be, keep using the drops and save up for a good pH meter.!!
Looks like light burn. I’m no expert though. Raising the light was the right course of action. @dbrn32 is the light guru and can give you more info about the correct distance from the plants.
I try to cover a 4x4 area so I keep my led light about three feet above the plants. Seems to work well for me.
Other than the slight light burn your plants are looking beautiful.
You may have added to much. Just water her for the next two or three times then start her back on at 1/2 of what you gave the first time and bring it up slowly … and you should be ok from there.
