    First feeding today day 23. floronova bloom

    the leaves are curling up and lower leaves r turning a light green/yellowish colour. i read up on it never found a concrete answer. could be my fan is on all the time and constant wind and too close to the light can cause the leaves to curl up or it could be a zinc problem. so i adusted the fan so its not blowing them so hard and moved them back 1ft. there about 2 ft from the light now with a very light breeze almost nothing.. hopefully starting my nutue sched will clear up the discolouring bc i feel i never charge my coco soil very well.. the yelowish green leaves can either be cal or a mg defiency. again idk forsure couldnt find a reliable answer.

    chime in please. advice would be great!!

    Cheers!

    The foliage is curling due to excessive heat so i would try cooling down the area or moving lights farther away. And the yellowing of foliage looks benign so i wouldn't worry
    Sometimes the best thing to do is nothing :]
    Good luck!

    DAY 39:

    there really really thirsty in the pics as you will notice. gave em a nice feeding today. 1 afghan is doing really nice. other 2 are behind. the one in the smart pot (fabric) was transplanted so as expected shes behind, but all have started to bud and are progressing very quickly week to week.

    bc it was my first grow and i used coco, ill have to be patient with this one. im on day 39 but it seems theyre about day 21. no biggie. im learning lots! i got 3 sativas vegging right now and will be taking over the tent when these autos are done. cant wait!

    cheers!

    Lookin nice. You learned a valuable lesson about autos - never transplant them if you can avoid it. I think you'll find the sativas do better with your setup than the Afghans do just because of how they grow.

    I'll be watching this one.

    DAY 52- not sure how much longer. im gonna get a good microscope this week. im thinkn 2 3 weeks. they still need to fill out more. 1 is doing really well. other 2 are behind. the one i transplanted is actually catching up. i have ties on all the autos to spread them out. allows each branch to get more light in this vertical setup.

    also youll see my 3 plants im vegging. they will be taking over the tent when these autos are done. theyre doing very well.

    I have also taken off the cool tube and went bare buld. using my inline fan to suck out the hot air and a fan pushing up the heat under the bulb.400w HPS. works great. temps stayed the same.
