Hey guys,
My plants seem to droop a little even when my light is seriously dimmed... I have no vertical space so the light is about 14 inches from canopy dimmed to the minimum setting.
The light is the timber grow light model 2vl.
If I measure 10k lux at canopy my plants droop from light stress (even if I get there slowly by increasing 2k lux a day).
They have minimal inter nodal spacing (like none) and they have wavy leaves. A couple of them droop an hour before lights out even at 5500 lux... Other than that... Overall they look fine for being 18 days old. One plant shows tiny bit of mag def, but otherwise they are nice and green.
Strains are Royal Queen purple queen and Sweet Seeds cream caramel cbd.
I weigh my rockwool cubes every day to know if they need to be watered (I water at less than 30% saturated weight.) and the roots out the bottom of the 4 inch cubes are pearly white and full of hairs so I don't think it's overwatering and I don't think I have a root issue.
My EC is at 1.0, and I started them at .5 EC.
Any ideas on this one?
I know I cannot get a decent yield if I cannot get them taking more light...
