Plant isn't growing, and isn't dying...

[Mr Piggy]

I'm also talking by experience. I've grown many strains under the conditions I described, in a dank, moldy and wet part of the world. Mold does not "start" around 50, that's bunk. The RH has to be higher than that to create optimum mold conditions. I'm also not concerned with what people say on other forums, they tend to be full of unfiltered poor information, just look at what they say about autos. I do try to lower my rh during flower, I lower it from 70-60 to 60-50. 55 is just right for me.

So why is the plant in a stagnant stage? Like it is doing nothing... no growth what so ever? :-/

not sure, you seem to have a mystery on your hands

can you better define this stagnation? How long has this been going on?

you should bring down ur humidity no higher den 40%

With all due respect myrakle, your original recommendation was, in fact, bad advice. You recommended lowering the humidity to "no higher den 40%". Lowering the relative humidity lower than 40% is unhealthy for a plant and, therefore, is not a good piece of advice.

The plant has shown no signs of growth in the past week, this is week 7... where usually you could see at least some growth. The ppm is running 1.2k right now and NO BURNS... the bud spots have remained the same with long white pistols.... like I said the plant looks amazingly healthy... it just isn't going anywhere... I am about to do another res change (New Week) but from the last times I can assume the roots are raising the ppm so maybe they are covered or holding something?

It's all good, myrakle. :smokebuds:

Here at AFN, all egos are checked at the door. We weren't going against what you were saying for the sake of being contradictory. We're just trying to make sure that the correct information is out there from which everyone can learn. Our #1 priority here is help every member grow the best, most medicinally beneficial cannabis that they can.

Let's burn another one. :smokebuds:

Your PPM is too high. Let it sit in pure PH'd RO (tap will work) water for a couple days changing the water daily, and then start back on lower PPM's. Try 400PPM. If the PPM goes down and PH go up then bump it up. Continue bumping it every 1-2 days until EC stays the same and PH stays pretty steady for 24 hours. That's your sweet spot.
That's what I would do personally if it was me.
