So I've been growing this plant from a bag seed. Vegged from 6/9 to 8/15. Flipped to flower on 8/15. Soil is Fox Farm ocean forest. Switched to tiger bloom on the 15th as well. Watered every 2-3 days based upon weight, knuckle test, and water meter. Checked my ph...its a 6.5. Humidity hovers between 42% and 47%. Temps are kept between 79 degrees and 82 degrees.
I started letting it get sunlight around the second week of flower. Temps outside were of course higher than my tent, but thinking NATURAL IS GONNA DO IT WELL...I let it soak the sun. I also did some defoliation on September 4th. Is this heat stress???
Ok lots of posts on how to water plants. So I thought I would put together a thread on how different factors contribute to different results that ppl see. This will be a long read based on my personal knowledge, opinions, research and others work to consolidate information for our members. I'm...
The other day I had an idea and after testing, it works great. To know if you need to water, get yourself a soil meter. Poke or drill 4 holes in your pot 1/4 way up from the bottom spaced around the pot. Insert the meter probe into the hole and test for moisture. If its dry, then water SLOWLY...
How hot exactly is it outside? Those necrotic patches look more like a combination of things, heat could be a source of stress but those patches look more like a tiger bloom issue to me. I've been saying this for years, that stuff is toxic to plants and ive seen more plants having problems in help threads using that stuff on here, than any other nutrient line. The P is way too high and it locks out Ca and zinc and a bunch of other nutrients. No doubt exacerbated by the change in environment, but that looks like more than just heat stress to me. In fact I don't see any taco leaves or raised ridges like you often see with heat stress.
Overwatering could have also contributed to overfeeding in general.
