That's what I was thinking but wouldn't the top leaves turn brown and dry out first instead of the lower leaves? Thanks for the feedback!Looks like on top of other things ya cooked with the light.
I'm not talking about the bottom leaves... see how the top ones are folding like a taco? V shipped not flat... thats to reduce light capture.That's what I was thinking but wouldn't the top leaves turn brown and dry out first instead of the lower leaves? Thanks for the feedback!
Perfect -its doing what plants without ventilation do.So a little about my grow. I was determined to complete this grow without any sort of ventilation because the noise makes it hard for me to sleep. It was an experiment which I believe may have failed.
I transplanted healthy looking seedlings into three gallon fabric pots 8 days ago. The were doing very well you until two days ago. I began to see rust spots on one of my plants and fed it cal mag assuming it was calcium deficient.
By yesterday the leaves towards the bottom had become splotchy and purple and we're twisted and curled upwards. I noticed tiny black bugs around my pots which I think are fungus gnats.
I now think that might be the cause however the leaves look different then pictures I see online when I google fungal gnats symptoms.
The leaves are crispy and dry and smell like dried cannabis when I open the tent. I wonder if it's possible these symptoms might be from heat stress or possibly a combination of that and gnats.
I've attached some pics. Any feedback would be much appreciated.

They need CO2 to live, once they use what is in the tent, they basically can't function... we can't breathe in a sealed room once the oxygen runs out, same deal. Fungus gnats don't generally mess with the leaves, they lay eggs in moist soil and the larvae feed on decaying matter or Fungus in the soil, the adults only live a few days. Letting the soil dry out and placing a few sticky traps helps keep them at bay... I have a ton of houseplants and they are unfortunately ever present, but they don't seem to bother much... I keep them away from the ladies as best I can, but there's always a few floating around. Looks like you may have some other type of issue as well though, definitely light stress, possibly something else from the look of those leaves... though it could just be from not having air to function. You'll have to MacGyver something that allows the ladies air and you to sleep.So you think this is an airflow problem and not pests or anything?

Intereting. I have been keeping the tent door open the past 3 days. But you thinks all these problems could be from a lack of co2. Not arguing. Just wanted to clarify.They need CO2 to live, once they use what is in the tent, they basically can't function... we can't breathe in a sealed room once the oxygen runs out, same deal.

I think they are just trying to make it clear that it will be an issue. I 100% agree with that.Intereting. I have been keeping the tent door open the past 3 days. But you thinks all these problems could be from a lack of co2. Not arguing. Just wanted to clarify.
No it looks like you have some other issues as well, but that's probably exacerbating the problem and making them more vulnerable to other issues like pests. Your environment is your number one priority. Doesn't have to be perfect, but they need air exchange, they need humidity in the air, they need a decent temperature.... Hard to say exactly from afar, you can make anything work if you put the effort in... mine are in a closet presently.Intereting. I have been keeping the tent door open the past 3 days.
