Hi y’all. Noob here, grateful if you guys can shed some light. I don’t have a gauge yet, just set up last month, so I don’t know humidity, pH nor temperature but wild guess is 21 degC at night and 29 degC during day, with humidity around 60-70. Soil mixed with 30% coco and 20% perlite. Almost a Litre of pond water every week with fish mix BioBizz. Grow cabinet dims: 62cm length x 62cm width x 80cm high (pretty small), Viparspectra v300 hangin at about 20in to plants (White widow auto and local strain). The wwa seems quite small (stunted) compared to the local strain. I just want to know if I’m on the right track as a noob. I tried to tie d widow down to try stimulate some roots. Anyways what do you guys think?

welcome to THC @Luke4886 can you upload some pictures under natural light. The purple makes it difficult to see the deficiencies or anything else in that matter.
What kind of soil are you using? What is your water resource?

The bigger plant in the smaller pot seems to have heat stroke. lol, the taco leaves is either from temps or light heat. also, try to bring your temp higher than 21c at night and around 26c at light on.

Soil is mainly plant based compost rich with 20% coco. I use fish pond water mixed with “fish mix” by BioBizz. Does it make sense if the soil was a bit too rich initial causing the little wwa to not grow her roots well hence the stunted growth? I tried pulling it to the side to may be stimulate a little more growth through training? It is my very first grow after all, so all critics is positive

Are you reminding the little plant that it's behind schedule?

Keep on eye on whether that yellowing continues onto other leaves. Might be N or K. I'm also thinking that big pot could need more than a liter of water per week. Water until all the soil is wet, then don't water again until the pot feels light.

First...get a proper temp and humidity sensor to see what the actuals are.

then....If you cannot drop the day temps at all,don't worry about it too much.
I've grown numerous times in a tent running between 30 to 34 degrees celsius and have still harvested lots of satisfying smoke.

If I can do it, anyone can

your temps and humidity is definitely not proper and without knowing what the current is than its hard to suggest anything. However, make sure the light height and the intensity is proper. Having a fan blowing in between the light and the plant cools the air down more. I don't know much about your soil or biohazard but the plants look good as far as the colors go. Im sure there are members here who have used it or know the product that can help you with questions.

20% coco will give you watering issues. You have to water differently. A coco medium is many smaller waterings daily. Soil is one big watering that lasts for 3 or 4 days. Mixing them means you need to use a meter to judge when to water. Coco doesn't hold water. 20% coco, 20% more often watering.
