Holy crap only 3 cups.. My plants were drinking 12 cups every 2-3 days in 7gallon fabric pots
I'm not saying there can't be a need to water every three days. This is situational. These plants have only been getting 3 cups of water -- probably right around the stem. If you fully watered them now, it could take a while to even root out the pot.
without derailing this thread, why does everyone say raise the light?
mmm not sure, i think full intensity but higher up is better than lower intensity and close..
Basically ommercial growers raise there lights very high because they want to light the whole room not just the top of the plants.
I will do that but I may turn the intensity down on the light instead of raising it. It's as high as I can get it without having to reposition my air filtering system. If raising it is a necessity I'll do it but it's a lot simpler to try turning the intensity knob first.
Using Fox Farm Happy Frog and feeding them the Fox Farms Tiger Bloom. I forgot to mention that I was treating them thoroughly once a week with Growers Ally spider mite control also. This is my 3rd grow and my first two were a war between the spider mites and myself so I started spraying these early into veg in hopes of preventing another infestation of those little bastards.
Many look for the spread of the light with the power still up.
Not all lights are dimmable.
For more even light distribution over a larger area is why you want to raise your light's height as much as possible.
I had a very similar problem with my last grow of OG Kush (My Northern Lights faired better) and I can see why OG Kush is considered an intermediate grow and not a beginners. It's very sensitive to nutrients inputs and watering. Looks like your going through a lockout. I'm on my 2nd grow of OG Kush, side by side with a White Widow, this time the OG Kush is doing better than my first attempt at it, like you I'm not celebrating till that 4th week of truth, so we'll see. But burnt tips and yellowing is a lockout. For watering you want to aim at 5 to 10% volume of your pot at a time. Three days is safe but stay on top of your soils moisture on a daily basis. Tiger Bloom sounds like a synthetic nutrient and those do best around 5.6-5.8 pH. Not sure how folks here feel about measure EC before and after but you might want to look into that. But from what I'm seeing from the pics, your overdoing it with the nutes with probably not enough runoff. You want 10-20% runoff when watering. (That 5-10% watering per pot volume is a good guide for organic soil growers ) but for synthetic growers aim for 10 to 20% runoff when watering to avoid salt build up in the media. my 2.cents. I went everywhere with that one... 😐
Yes, about 12 hours ago.
