Day 26
2 days ago I decided to completely clean and replace the water in my reservoir. The magnesium deficient look was just not improving, and my plant started to look a bit droopy.
I remember from a previous grow where I used the same ferts as I did in this one, I had a similar look occurring on the leaves of the plant. (yellowing, green veins still present). I have now come to the conclusion that it was my ferts doing the harm (even though I hardly used any!)
Anywhoo, I cleaned and replaced the water in my reservoir. I did do some foliar feeding with Epsom salts, and the next day I rinsed away any dried on salt crystals (both were completed with my lights off). I did also remove some not so healthy bottom leaves from the base of my plant to allow for better airflow.
My plant has now been looking great since I cleaned/foliar fed. You'll be able to see in one of the pics below the smaller leaf that was very yellowish is now getting much more green. The larger leaf is still yellow. I think it will take some extra time for that one to heal.
AND! I believe I can see the start of some flower locations!!! You can see them in the pics below
lmao, this is the first time I'm going to watch a cuke journal! I love it. TY
Are you going to be adding more light besides your flouros? (maybe i missed it, but i dont feel like reading the thread) hehe
I'm glad everyone is liking my thread
And yes, I plan on just using my fluorescent lighting throughout my grow. I've already had to raise my overhead tubes up twice
The desk lamps that I use to light up the front/sides of my plant have very adjustable necks on them so it's great for projecting the light upwards.
Leaf that is doing much better :
Leaf that is going to take a bit longer to heal:
