All my new growth has this nuclear, lime green coloring on the outer part of the leaves. Seems like it's only affecting new growth so far.

Growing in Coast of Maine stonington blend, amended with worm castings and Gaia green all purpose. Repotted from solo cups into 2gal pots about a month ago. Feeding with purified water bottles (until I can setup a more permanent solution) with mammoth P, biobizz bioheaven, sugaree, and calmag. Going slightly on the lighter side of the recommended amounts when mixing. Phd to 6.5ish

3 plants share 1 gallon of that water mixture, watering 2 or 3 times per week.


Too much or too little n

ok, well firstly let’s start with what could be lights or watering..

Not the best pic, I'll get a better one when the lights pop on. They're about due for water tonight most likely as well.
 
well definitely a transplant is needed..
does that fan oscillate or stay still?
2 gallon pots will need almost a 1/2 gallon of water..
Fan oscillates. Should I move up to a 5gal pot? I was waiting til I flip to flower to transplant so I can add the power bloom amendments. Probably going to wait another week or two before flipping.

mmmm, id transplant than when you do want to add your bloom. you can top dress with every watering.. probably a tablespoon added to surface of soil every watering..

I think you're right about that 👍. Growth has been slow the last week or so.
 
oh i bet it’s all roots it’s best to transplant before a watering so you water them after your done the transplant..
Tomorrow I'll get more worm castings and transplant into the final 5 gal containers. Going to amend the soil with the 4-4-4 and the worm castings, then once I flip and flowers begin development I'll start top feeding the bloom nutes.

Can I assume the 5 gal pots will be enough the finish them in?

do the transplant and give her a few days before we do another analysis, as your concern could be from needing a transplant, or the lights a bit close or maybe but i doubt a calmag def.

from 2-5 gallon, flipping in a couple weeks, yep i’d say your good..
don’t forget air holes in bottom and even lower sides..

Ok sounds good, thanks!

The ac infinity s33 light is approx 2ft above set to 80 percent power. Doesn't seem to be hurting them. temps stay mid 70s lights on, around 69 70 lights off. I have a space heater blowing warm air at the intake, humidity 60-65%

lightly pack in the soil as your filling the bucket and try to have the plant as close to the top of the bucket with a bit of room for watering.., maximize the room in the bucket 😁

65 is kinda high, 45-60 is more ideal..
 
i don’t mean that large of a swing just having it somewhere between 45-55% is best..
I was told by my local hydro store to aim for 65 for veg. I've seen their personal grows and they seem to know what they're doing 🤷. Would save me having to refill this thing every day lol

yep they have there environment and it works
generally starting out with seedling and young plants yes higher humidity but as she’s grows and enters flowering the humidity should be lowered also.. if anything you may notice that your watering a day earlier if you get your humidity to say 55 MAYBE.. but don’t do it drastically, lower it over a few days.

Got it, thanks for the input!

Honestly that just looks like new growth. New growth tends to be a lighter green than older more mature parts of the plant.
