LED Grow - Northern Lights Auto -

I've only ever had problems when leaves get wet. Some people are into spraying leaves but not me.

Looking awesome so far!!

Day 19 Veg.

Looks cool but


Some of the lead tips on a couple of plants going yellow - thinking its hungry or hot hmm research time

Bushyyyy!
I called it, I said like ten days ago those seedlings were exploding. Let at them go! Gee

I also never spray leaves, foliar feeding or otherwise. Even wilted clones, I'd much sooner mist the dome than the leaves directly.
I want plants to concentrate on getting things through the root system and up the stem, driving it to grow a big strong bottom half.

TheGhostofBillHicks, have you turned on your second light yet?
That's what I'd be thinking about now, if your heat levels can comfortably accommodate that.
What exhaust fan did you get?

Yeah my both lights (1000w and 300) both on at 20 inches now - cheapo exhaust fan plus a mini blow fan inside but still temps pushing 90f 30c.

Some leaves looked yellow and dry so I fed a weak nute solution. Here's hoping!

Hot hot hot!
Well if you get some money, that's probably the next thing to invest in.
I love my Hyperfan, it has a built in speed controller knob
It's whisper silent on lowest, and hectic strong on fastest.

Day 21 Veg

I've given them one very dilute feed as they looked a little hungry. 24 H later they look fairly perky so think this was right on. Have the tent door wide open so as to cool them down from their 85/90F average temp. They're auto NL so don't want to stunt their meagre veg period. I think I have little time until they go and flower on me!

As ever, all advice welcome.

Why havent you started training them yet?

I don't want to stunt their growth as they're autos and only veg for a small time. What were you suggesting?

i am suggesting you do some lst to them to keep them nice and flat and wide. i am on day 22 with my WW autos right now so i will absolutely be keeping an eye on this.

Good idea, I'll get bending - thanks.

Post-bending photos?

Tied down and around to open up hidden nodes... and to sticks so as to get canopy similar height... Day 23 veg thanks for the advice this far!

Arty! Some photos to treasure.
Are they drinking their soil dry at a noticeably faster, less concerning rate these days?

You got it! Fed them yesterday (Formulex. Bio Bizz package is on its way) and the soil's already getting dry.

Going to leave it at least another day before more feeding though. With the 1000W and 300W together in the small tent, even with all vents open and extractor on still runs hot. Keeping a window open as well as tent doors fully open (they're on 20/4)

Estimated full run it's +-60 days so we're approaching the midpoint now. It's so lush watching it grow!

If you have an exhaust fan then keeping the door of the tent open is hurting you more than helping.

Ok I shut the door up and will hope the fan can get the airflow to sort out the temp. Thanks.
