Soil Growers:
1. Are you growing from seed or clones? Seed
2. How old are your plants? About a month old
3. How tall are your plants? About 16 inches tall
4. What size containers are they planted in? 1 gallon pots
5. What is your soil mix? FFOF
6. How often do you water and what type of water do you use? Now watering is up to every other day/ RO water
7. What is the pH of your water? Not sure just RO water 6.5?
8. What kind of fertilizer do you use and what is its NPK ratio? Just used alaska fish fertilizer night before last (last watering) 5-1-1
9. Do you foliar feed or spray your plants with anything? Not in the last two weeks, but then only plain RO water.
10. What kind of lights do you use and how many watts combined? (HPS, MH, fluorescent, halogen, incandescent "plant lights") 1000 watt hps but they were under 2 big cfls for the last week while waiting on my new hps bulb to show up.
11. How close are your lights to the plants? about three feet from hps, but they were about an inch below the cfls until I switched day before yesterday. (Friday)
12. What size is your grow space in square feet? 4x4 mylar tent
13. What is the temperature and humidity in your grow space? 77-79f and about 50-60% rh
14. What is the pH of the soil? Not sure I mix lime in with it so it should be ok
15. Have you noticed any insect activity in your grow space? None
16. How much experience do you have growing? Been growing for three years, just never had this problem in veg
This problem is happening on the top of two plants, technically these are lower branches but I topped then my hps bulb blew so I put them under the cfls, where they stretched like crazy, These branches are now on the top of the plant, I have also seen yellowing in the bottom leaves, which i believe to be N def. I fed them the other night 2 tblsp of fish fert 511. Will an N def show up in lower branches that have grown up to the canopy? Most of the dying leaves are on the second node down from the top of the plant but the striping is on the lower branches that have grown into the canopy. It starts from the tips of the leaves on the outer edge then works its way in.
