ok bet lemme download it
ok bet lemme download itdownload the photone app, if youre getting over 350 for a par reading at the top of that plant i’ll send you a fem seed or two regs of your choice from my collection
You dont need a lot of light for veg. But If it has something to do with the light its not because of intensity, its because of lack of food.
how should i put the paper over the phone?If you have an iphone the photone app is great for checking lighting. Just need a piece of paper over the lens to diffuse. Its not exact exact, but its definitely enough to get you in the ballpark
how should i put the paper over the phone?
i did it but it says i gotta pay for the led setting is there an app that does it for free? or what setting in the app is close in measurement to ledI cut about a 1” strip of white paper and wrap it around your phone, and tape it at the back. Make sure you select the led setting.
Glad youre downloading it, proper lighting is crucial, especially for flower
How much is it? I thought it was only $5, i got it a few years back thoi did it but it says i gotta pay for the led setting is there an app that does it for free? or what setting in the app is close in measurement to led
yea its like 6.49 but all my money is in crypto lmaooo. what chart? can u send it ova?How much is it? I thought it was only $5, i got it a few years back tho
Im looking at your chart and @38% intensity you should have a par reading of ~305, which is kinda on the low end for veg
yea its like 6.49 but all my money is in crypto lmaooo. what chart? can u send it ova?
ohh that one i see. i also moved the lights up a little bit from "19 to "21.5 at 40%Im looking for a better one. Keep in mind the chart is shown at full intensity, so your value would be a percentage of that. I also took the highest value at the center of the light, which isnt precise, because your plants would be offset towards the sides
Awesome thanks for the help man

After having another real close look at this plant. I am still seeing a few blisters on a few leaves.
This is caused buy very intense light. So is the overall light plant colour and burned leaf edges.
You need to stop playing around with camera light meters and learn to read your plant.
It's to hot where it's sitting, you need to move the plant to a corner where the light is not so intense.
A couple of leaf edges look Nitrogen burned. This is standard when starting in Ocean Forest / hot soil.
I do not see any signs of Calcium deficiency, Magnesium or any other deficiency, . None!
I'm thinking a very slow deep watering is in order. At least a litre of water 1 cup at a time with 10 min between
so the medium has a chance to soak up the water. Then do not water again until the medium is quite dry.
Almost to the point of the plant wilting. Check it daily but this could take a full week with a plant this size.
Then do the same again.
I don't remember seeing anything about your water or fertilizer solution P.H.
You should be watching this. Ball park ether 6 to 6.5 works well in this medium.
yea i moved the light up more and turned down the intensity thanks for the tips. im thinkin its too much nutrients mixed with the light intensity. im using cronk liquid nutrients grow, cal mag, and micro mixed with the FFOF. Going to water with 6.2 ph water with no liquid fert and se how she reactsAfter having another real close look at this plant. I am still seeing a few blisters on a few leaves.

Huh? Lots of issues affect leaflet edges.Leaf edges are potassium.
Yes, but nitrogen deficiency was what I mentioned. So, I don't believe it's nitrogen toxicity.Excess nitrogen will cause deep green color, leaf clawing and downward cupping. Possible waxy sheen.
I think many growers would say FFOF is hot. That's somewhat relative, of course, but it's surely hotter than FFHF, to which it is often compared. It's generally agreed that plants started in FFOF don't need additional nutrients while they're young.Ocean forest is not hot, i grew in it exclusively for my first two years. Its a preamended soil, it will become hot when you feed it. It will possibly start showing magnesium issues in week 3, potassium and calcium deficiencies around week 2 or 3 of flower.
It could be a watering problem. It doesn't look like it to me if it's nutrient lockout, though. Rather than watering on a schedule, a better method is to lift the pots and become skilled at knowing when the pot is light enough to need water. I call it the dry-and-drench method. Many growers recommend it.This is either a watering issue or a root issue. That is a 1 gallon pot, maybe 2 gallon. It will need watering at least twice a week. If you water once a week, your microbes will die. Your roots will die. Plant will focus on root repair instead of vegetative growth.
They do indeed measure light, but that isn't always helpful. You're right if you're saying that the various growth factors all need to be in optimal ranges for optimal results. Reducing light intensity, however, would be helpful if it lets the plant recover. Many growers, me included, prefer to let the plant be the light meter. Because plants vary so much in their needs, conforming to a textbook-type standard can fail. There's nothing better than learning to read the plants. It takes time to learn, though.Par meters measure light. An actual measure of it. If you raise the light and it fixed it, it wouldnt be because of the light, it would be because it required less nutrients because of inadequate lighting.
It's always up to the grower to decide. We give them our opinions. They might believe us. They might not.But whatever. Go ahead and listen to this dude. Shit, take the light out altogether. Good luck

I think you mean well Stokes. but I have to ask if you really believe what your saying. What a load of bat dung.
Actually I'm not above sharing my mistakes with members. That's why I shared this. We all make mistakes now and again.
Do you really think pulling this up in order to prove some point like I don't know what I'm talking about is going to prove anything Really.
Although I don't share a lot of my indoor, I do grow both indoor and out and I'm pretty good at both.
Like it or not. I believe that your offering bad advice in relation to this post and about 90% of what you posted today is rubbish.
