Indoor A builders edge in grow room construction. Dream room

I added a lot more lighting to help with the confined space. It seems to help but the killer is not being able to tie the plants down to expose more leaves. I think I'll Just have to focus on a smaller number of larger plants over a large number of small plants.

Terrible news! One of my new ceramic metal halide ballasts just died on me. It's only a couple weeks old which is strange. Then I looked and my co2 tanks are all empty. Have to hit up the grow shop before work I guess.


Group photo. Lol! Not sure what's gone wrong but I have a couple plants that have been hit hard by what appears to be calcium deficiency. I have been doing 50% the recommended cal/mag every feeding which I always thought was enough. Ph has always been on point and I always water with plenty of runoff. My worst plant has 50% brown spots covering it.

I'm in soil with extra perlite and been pushing them nutrient wise. No brunt tips and they look fairly healthy besides the last deficiency. I'm feeding every other day and upwards of 75% the recommended. Can't believe they are taking it like this.

Pour on the cal/mag...

Lots of tops, your grow looks gorgeous!

I disagree it might and probably isn't a calmag issue because uve been feeding them regularly with it it might be s ph lockout due to salt build up try given the worst affected plant a good flush and start with 50% nutes again peace ✌

I did this yesterday actually. Very happy to have this all set up this way. Flushing 13 plants took about an hour or 2. I know with this much leaf damage the plant won't look better but I hope this stops if from spreading.

It seems to be the areas that are being hit directly by the cob lights. Very strange!! I know with lenses the lights are very intense but the damage looks like calmag and not light stress.

Veg room is completely full sog and that's unintentional. Flowering I'm weeks away and I'm kicking myself for starting new seeds to soon. Have to hope these finish before things get way to out of hand.

It's only on a couple plants and one is real bad. I have never seen anything like it in my life

Could be a few things. They look hungry for nitrogen, possibly from a lockout? Also look to be not getting enough calcium due to the rust spotting. Check your pH, should be in the 6.5 range if you're in soil and 5.8 for coco. There's definitely a fine window to cal/mag uptake it seems.

I AM NO EXPERT, this is just my opinion.

The rooms working well but really running out of space quick. Going to cut back next run!!!

Those babies look a lot bigger than mine at that age!
