Have you ever had this problem before?Lights are too close, over watering, nitrogen deficiency. I really don't know. That's what comes to my mind when I look at them but this is less than a year of growing experience talking.
Few things:
You didn't mention which light, but if back them off to 18 inches.
They're most likely ready for bigger pots now.
Have you given them any nutrients? It might be time.
Sort of. Their growth looks stunted and that can mean a short shelf-life for your leaves. Thats why I listed "lights too close" as first diagnosisHave you ever had this problem before?
Ok I will move them up higher thank youSort of. Their growth looks stunted and that can mean a short shelf-life for your leaves. Thats why I listed "lights too close" as first diagnosis
In fact I'm positive about that. I know your using led but Ive grown several stunted plants with cfls just inches away. That is the WRONG way and the evidence always seems to only show during the flowering cycle. Maintain a good temperature with any light and allow for stretch and balance. Now I keep my cfls 10"-12" away from my plants and they bush AND stretch out superbly. They're all the same strain too.Ok I will move them up higher thank you
Start your led at least 24 up to 30 inches from plant. What is watt equivalent ? I litterally bleached leaves with an led from over 30 inches away. Just because it's not hot means nothing. It is the bands and wavelength of the ligh( the intensity) that will fry the plant and not even be warm. Does your led have uv? If so that can be dangerous. Everything is more dangerous to young plants. Always better to be safe. Start further away. If you see too much stretch bring a little closer. You have to find your "sweet spot" for your particular light and plant. Personally I would go 30 inches and adjust from there. Just like with nutes don't just jump at full power. Always start soft and intensify as the plant tells you that's what it wants.Ok I will move them up higher thank you
No food. What soil are they in? Make your added soil to upgrade pots an unfertilized mix. You can always add nutes later. Getting too many out is a different story. Make sure to have good mix of perelite. I would go straight at 2-3 gallon pots. Then once they're close to binding that go to 5 gal. Good adding soil is straight peat moss with heavy perelite. No nutes. Any nutes you add start at 1/4-1/2 strength. Nitrogen for veg and phosphorus and potassium for flower. Also get you some calmag. Good to have on deck.Ok I will do that and I'm putting them in bigger pots tomorrow I just don't know what the best size and pot I should use & mircale-Gro all purpose plant food that's what I've been using not a lot those still not sure how much I should use at this stage
That's what I'm saying too. Wait until plant asks for nutes. Let the nutes already in the soil deplete. I would use unfertilized soil. Like clean peat moss with pereliteYour soil can hold plants for the first 3 weeks maybe longer without feed. I would say your pH is messed up. Transplant to a larger bag and add more soil. It will blow up after that. Wait 2 weeks and feed very low strength
Not neccesarily. Over water will just be overwater. Nute lock is usually ph or more commonly a deficiency in magnesium or another secondary nutrient. Definately let cups dry but don't let them go days dry. I suggest you get right out of the cups. Like I said 2-3 gal pots and after you transplant water with a half dose of cal mag. 2-3 gal pots I would give half gal water when transplanting. Mix cal mag by the gallon in milk jug. If it says 1 ml use half. Those medicine syringes for kids are the easy way to measure. And don't use cold cold water. Cool to Luke warmwhen they get over watered they get nute lock right? if the nutes are not organic and the ppm or salt lockout idk...
