New Grower Danielsaaan’s Fourth Grow - Nightowl Blue Microverse

As far as I understand it, when plants start flowering stage all the focus goes to the flowers leading to a light green or yellow color to tips and new growth. And that most often yellow tips are a sign of over/under watering. Good time to get my facts straight so can someone correct me?
 
Hey man, looking good so far! They've made a nice recovery.

An easy way to tell if they are getting to much light in addition to the tacoing and light burning is they will get droopy a few hours before lights off. Usually means they are getting to much light unless you have other issues. When I got my 650r I had it turned way up and burned my plants a lot, to my surprise the plants seem to love it at like 50-65% max with my UVA bar.

I've kinda stayed away from light reading instruments and numbers after that and have learned to just read the plants since each one is bound to be a bit different. I usually end up with one or two plants that get droopy and a few that just want more so I just keep it at a happy medium and move the plants around to lighter or darker spots for adjusting. Has worked out well for me since.

From what I remember 35 DLI should be good. Just remember if you have UVA/B it won't read on most light reading apps or meters. It should peak in light needs a couple weeks into flower and then it will back off and need less towards the final weeks.

Hope that helps!
Thanks Dank! Well put. I’m on a 24h cycle as I’m in the northeast and it’s a bit chilly in my basement. The leaves do appear to droop at certain times of the day, so I assume that’s when they’ve met their light needs. I’ll see what these look like in 24h and adjust as needed. As always, appreciate your insight!

Hmmm. I don’t think my plants are showing any other signs of being over or underwatered, but I could be wrong! Hopefully the light tips are from new growth, but I can’t be sure. Will just have to reevaluate in a couple of days I think. Thanks PLB!
 
Day 35: DLI is 31-33 (per Photone app full spectrum) across the canopy and they’re responding nicely to the change. Will likely need to water in the next day or two. Temps 70-72, RH 45%.
