First timer trying to learn,

Thanks for all the help you guys offered as a little update here is her now

I think I need some better lighting controll or more lighting as the node sites look kind of stretched out also meaning the top cola had to be bent to duck her a safe distance away.

Also realised I need to up her nutes as I was afraid to over do it meaning I've been feeding her slightly less than I should but going to up the feed incrementally over the next week or so.

I've learnt so much on this first cant wait to learn more!


Should I have de-foliated more in the veg or is it better to leave her to do her thing?

Any tips would be ace, stay safe out there!

P.s pics are from a few weeks back in week 2 of

She looks more than open enough to me, I'd leave the clippers alone. Just keep the air moving in that lower canopy, and you should be golden. Watch your RH as she gets denser colas.

Good luck with it!

Your water quality deserves a look if it's over 600 ppm. Depending on what that all is, it can give you fits. Might pull a water report for your area and see what's in there.

Hi all, me again

Sorry for poking you all again but I have run into an issue. She is in mid flower now and ingesting these brown spots forming on the fan leaves. I've read up on some causes and it sounds like a deficiency. The Rh is kept at 44-48% and the feeding her the following:
Flora series tripart micro gro and bloom. She has a big fan blowing the air around the tent just above her so air movement is ok and I wouldn't suspect an infection but its not off the cards. Any ideas? Can provide any info if needed as I'm not sure what helps to guide on something like this.

As always any help is greatly appreciated!
Attached pics for reference. 1/4 of the fan leaves have this issue now.

If that isn't happening to sugar leaves I wouldn't worry plants ditch fan leaves in the end and use stuff it needs. Others may have a different opinion

what are ppms of water? What are ur ppms when u feed?

what are ppms of water? What are ur ppms when u feed?

Water: 322 ppm (have really hard water did look into other options but non were viable)

Nute mix before feed: 722 ppm

Is that too High? She is in mid flower

I'll defer to the more experienced, but I would say yes. Problem is, u don't know what is in ur 322 ppm water.

I agree, likely too high. In combination with your water, you may have lockout, but I am too new at this to confirm or otherwise. OTOH, if your final nute mix is 722 including your water, I doubt that the nutes are causing lockout, your problem is more likely your water.

Sorry I can’t help more.

I'll defer to the more experienced, but I would say yes. Problem is, u don't know what is in ur 322 ppm water.

Its high in calcium mostly as quoted from the water co.: The level of calcium carbonate in your water zone is 312.8 ppm

I did look at getting an RO pump fitted and adding in calmag myself to compensate but the pipework in my place is pretty oldand would need replacing before i could fit the pump.

This also explains why my humidifier hates it so much I end up replacing and cleaning my prefilter on a weekly basis with clouds of the white dust (now I know its calcium) being shaken off before I wash it.
