New Grower First grow ever

[snerval]

You open them up and check for moistness?

@snerval Dont worry too much, yours look way better than my first ones .your still going to end up with some nice flower.

Hope you're right @Modernviking !
But seing all these leaves yellowing was a chock, I really thought I was killing her lol

You may also want to lift your lights some if you can. What light schedule are you using currently?

Ok will do in a few hours. I run 18/6 since the beginning.

Thank you @Suki813



What should be the light intensity ? I have no idea apart that I'm on 100% on the attis 200W, about 65 cm above top canopy... maybe I should get a tool and begin to learn about light stuff...



That's a relief, it is what I did instinctively
I will go on until I see an improvement, without nutes. Then back half dose of bloom.



Lesson learned !
I truly thought it couldn't be of harm, to boost the dose ; well she reacted negatively.
Now that I think about it, I hope there are no other problem underlying...



This and a kind of living soil I think. I've read fascinating posts these days here on AFN, about growers knowing the science of soil
I love that. Myself living in the country side I would love to learn how to do my own soil !
So much to learn !

Oh no I mean specifically while using salt nutes in soil. Each grow style is similar but very different and yields different results. But specifically when using salt nutes, you won't get bigger buds by providing extra nutes. You're definitely more likely to cause problems than a better yield. I would definitely stick to your plan, and maybe try lifting your light some or possibly a bit more dark time. @Mañ'O'Green can explain it better but essentially the higher your DLI, the more water (and thus nutrients) your plant will uptake, causing burn.

Pushing extra nutes isn't going to give you any more bud unless they actually are in need of extra nutes. The only thing you can do to help your buds fatten is give them time.

Preach @Suki813 !
+ light

Oh by the way, if you remember my problem with gnats, at some point I decided to be a little more agressive, so I ordered some Gnatrol (BTI)...
Guess what, they have almost disappeared lol during the shipping ! all by themselves they're gone in a week.
Maybe the result (several days later) of the neem oil mid-drench I did... Nature is always surprising !

... At least I'm well armed now. Both pro-actively speaking and in case of war too

Lighting science is one thing I haven't delved to much into yet, I've been working on overall environmental stuff, ph, and nutrients thus far and attempting to get those dialed in. Personally I'd much rather have my lights too far away and adjust down if needed to account for any excessive stretch than have them too close and cause issues that way.

I'm not using salt nutes at all...
I choose this compagny at the time not knowing much about others...

I follow RQS plan (Vertafort - all organic nutrition) which is like Biobizz lightmix + 30% perlite + 50g dispersible tablets + Mycorrhiza


This is tablet composition :

​

Ingredients​
Organic nitrogen (N)	6%
Phosphoric anhydride (P2O5)	7%
Potassium oxide (K2O)	12%
Sulfur trioxide (SO3)	10%
Magnesium oxide (MgO)	2%
Organic material	30%

Origin​
Organic nitrogen	By-product of hides
Phosphorous	Bone meal
Potassium	Potassium sulfate
Magnesium	Dolomite

The fongus types

Rhizophagus irregularis

Entrophospora colombiana

Glomus spurcum

Glomus mosseae

Glomus geosporum

Glomus clarum

Glomus etunicatum

Then I gave half dosage of this one at veg stage :

​

Ingredients​
Hydrolized protein	30%
Leonardite humic acid	20%
Lithothamnium seaweed	20%
Potassium sulfate	12%
Magnesium sulfate	3%
Calcium bi-carbonate	15%

Then for flowering stage :

​

Easy Bloom Tablet ingredient
Monopotassium phosphate	65%
Calcium bi-carbonate	25%
Magnesium sulphate	10%

Analysis of elements
P2O5	30%
K2O	20%
MgO	6%

A week ago I made the mistake of upping to full dose, I think that this hurt the jack. Also AK but on a less important way.
The royal dwarf and the haze didn't react badly at all.

I'm definitely lifting the light, thanks you.
