Question for all you experienced growers: She is growing by leaps and bounds. She's even exceeding the tie down I put on her just a few days ago by a couple of inches.
However there is one thing I noticed: the tips of the newest growth are lighter in color than the rest of the leaves; they are yellowish. Is this something to be worried about?
I want to be pro-active.
I started her in lower humidity after the pre-flower so she's been drinking a LOT more water from the reservoir; about 1/3 gallon a day.
The water that I'm adding is
75% nute amount (Megacrop, Sweet Candy, CalMag) so in a reservoir that holds 5 gallons, I'm adding 1/3 of a gallon a day so every time I add water she's creeping up to full strength nutes.
I'm thinking that if there is an issue, that's it.
Nute burn. As I said before, the Octopot directions say that since there is no runoff, that the water doesn't go away, then 1/2 strength nutes are what should be used. I'm thinking maybe just start adding PH water to lighten the nute strength.
Can anyone help?
The tips are circled in white. They are the tallest, newest growth.
PS: The light was 15" above them, because of the growth, they got a little close. I backed it off to 18" again.
EDITED TO ADD: After typing this out, and looking at nute-burn pictures online, and realizing that I was effectively at full strength nutes after adding a couple of gallons of nute water, (and that octopot warns against this) I theorized that yes, its nute burn so I removed 2.5 gallons from the reservoir and replaced it with just plain PH water...that effectively returned the water to 1/2 strength again. I'll let her ride with that for a few days and see what happens.
Let me know if that was a bone-head move or not...please.
