Little small update on the girls going on to week 4 of veg they're about 12-14 inches tall smallest is 12 tallest 14. And about 10-12" width. Raised the HPS due to the crisp and drying in leaves 36 " off of canopy from all 6.
Temp is running @ 76
Rh @ 56.
Just gave them a watering today Using
Cal extra sensi and GH Rapid Start
Ph @ 5.8
E.C @ 800
Hopefully they recover from the drying I'm thinking I may have larvae still in coco from some gnats I had earlier so I Added some a little tb in the watering . I'm thinking of getting some diatomaceous earth and sprinkle some on top of my medium.

Hope they recover for you! The parts that aren't burnt seem really healthy. I just read back through your posts to see how much light you have going on there. You had them under 2k of hps @18"... AND you had close to 700w led??! Damn, no wonder they are crispy lol. That is a LOT of light. I think you should be good at 36". You might not see a lot of growth for a bit while they recover, but they should be fine. Wait until they are healthy and growing well again before you flip to flower. If they aren't recovered when you flip you will probably run into issues again. Next time I woukd just run 1k for 3 plants that size. 2k is a bit overkill when you only need to light what, a 4x4 maybe? I didnt see how big of a space your using but thise look like 5g pots? You could easily fit those in a 4x4 and get them huge with 1k. I think your just wasting electricity and your going to continue burning your girls with no real benefit.

Sorry I forgot to mention I only have one 1k on now and has been for a week and 3 days now and the space is 6x 8 I intend to veg for another 3-4 weeks and correct 5gal smart pots I've changed a few things as I realized it was a bit to intense for them in there. And yeah I'll just have so wait and see will be checking in on them see how they do. And thanks for the advice and I will be switching that other light on for flower, not so sure about the led might just return them or use them in veg room. I'll see.

Right on! Sounds like your on the right track, the hard part... Just waiting and seeing lol. I think they will bounce back just fine, these plants are incredibly resilient. Yor yields will most likely suffer a bit, but with 3-4 more weeks of veg that should be plenty of time for then to recover nicely. I will be following along to see how they do! Good luck :)

They're GSC that I got from a friend a few months back all I've got was his word that they're were "Fire" he said he got them a hemp con or some convention and that were some amazing cuts, so we will have to wait and see. Wish I had more info on genetics bummer. And yes they started to flower. Buds started showing August 20th.

Damn those sre some nice roots there! What method are you using for cloning? Just jiffy pots and a hunidity dome? Im wanting to try out some cloning with this run to hooefully find a mother, but Ive never done it before. Im thinking of building a bubble cloner but idk yet.

Method I used I have a 50 plug station with a dome, reservoir around it and a heating mat. I took the cutting from the gsc outdoors from the bottom branches. Clipped a few so I dumped them in a jar filled with Phd water. I did that because I took at least 30 minutes choosing cuttings that way they won't get any "air bubbles" is what I read. I'm inexperienced so I wasn't too sure what to look for. Monster crop is the method I chose so I took the cuttings during flower.
After I cut all the bottom part of the branch with a clean new blade that I soaked in rubbing alcohol. Cut it at a 90 degree angle dipped them all in Clonex gel for about 2 minutes then stuck each one in its plug. After I made 16 oz of water with Clonex solution. 16 is was the reccomended amount used on that specific tray I have. Ask your local hydro store they should give you and answer like they did to me.

Also I used the dome and was spraying every other day or so and I noticed that it was getting to humid for them I lost two clones due to mold,way too humid. so now I don't use it. I'm having better luck this way. Now I just go in there and do some misting on top daily. That is what I'm doing And working so far my first time.

Well they turned out nicely. When I do it Im gonna try half with Roots Excelurator and half without to see how quickly the ones with Roots develop. Ive been using it with my seedlings and they seem to be growing much faster than anything Ive ra before. Not only that, but in their little solo cups, Im watering every other day which tells me that the root systems must be pretty big under there.

Here's an update on my girls inside looks like they're starting to recover and bounce back. The issue I was having was fungus gnat larvae. After watching them closely I decide to scoop out some soil from pots and found some larvae. IVe been using h2o2 to kill gnats and some stickies hanging on ceiling . New growth is starting to grow. image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg

Added a drip irrigation system since I plan and putting up the screen up pretty soon. Would be annoying trying to water thru that in later stages. I've been having to hand water l, which I do not mind but this should make it a lot smoother.
Temps are running at 69-73 Rh @ 55-60 ph 5.8-6.0 last feed ec was 1.0. Day 34 veg. In 5 gallon smart pots. image.jpegimage.jpeg
