So in conclusion from everything I have told you guys you all think things are ok? Just making sure haha
So in conclusion from everything I have told you guys you all think things are ok? Just making sure hahaI agree, pictures can be deceiving. 2-3" from the top isn't horrible. Some of the pictures in your first few posts make it look like a lot more.
They look great man you're well on your way!Hi guys these are my plants and environment today I have defoliated all big fan leaves from man stem and topped each plant. What you guys think? They looking alright now?
Oh ok thankyou sorry for posting so much with so many questions I just really am enjoying growing but when I enjoy something I always ask loads of questions so I can make sure I know what I am doing lol.nothing i'd personnally worry about, few damage/wound/burn locally are rather common, when it doesn't spread significantly there is usually no need to worry.
Well then, keep asking your questions ... its going to take several grows to begin to feel comfortable with everything. This doesn't mean that its hard. It simply means there's a lot going on and it takes a few grows to become adequately exposed to things so that what you're doing becomes second nature.Oh ok thankyou sorry for posting so much with so many questions I just really am enjoying growing but when I enjoy something I always ask loads of questions so I can make sure I know what I am doing lol.
Thankyou.
Ok thank you so much for your help one last thing I’ve had these spots develop over past few days and I have no clue what they could meanWe

Hi I have been feeding 5.9-6 ph most have been 6 one time 5.9 I did have a ph meter beak on me a few days ago and for 2-3 days I “eyeballed it” which was the only thing I could do at the time. Do you think the defoliation was a really bad idea have I messed them up?Defoliating a plant you're not sure is 100% healthy is always a bad idea. Out of sight out of mind is not the way to deal with leaf symptoms.
Those brown patches in the video are a sign of pH stress. Based on all current evidence you are fucking with your plants too much! You already mentioned feeding the plant random pH inputs and I suggested aiming for 6 always. You may just be seeing the results of that earlier fuckery or you didn't take my advice.
RO water has no buffering capacity. This is really important in hydro/coco.
You took away their solar panels and backup reserves of nutrients. What do you think?Hi I have been feeding 5.9-6 ph most have been 6 one time 5.9 I did have a ph meter beak on me a few days ago and for 2-3 days I “eyeballed it” which was the only thing I could do at the time.

Yes I know however there was nothing I could do this was over a week ago before this chat was created I got another ph meter nowYou can't eyeball pH especially with RO water. Growing in coco is HYDRO!
So they will more than likely die now?You took away their solar panels and backup reserves of nutrients. What do you think?
They'll recover... I agree with above, you're handling them to much. Let it mature a bit.So they will more than likely die now?
No, they probably won't die. You could stress your plants enough for them to go into shock ... Happy plants are not stressed out plants. There's reasoning behind the things we do, but that reasoning isn't "because everyone else does it." For now, step back away from them so you don't love them to death. Being a helicopter plant parent won't help them grow any better or faster.So they will more than likely die now?
