well, i've read through the FAQ a few times, trying to figure out what is going on with my plant, but i'm totally lost.
it is 5 weeks into flowering. i'm growing in a box made from two rubbermaid tubs, with 8 23w CFLs. The lights are about 1" from the hightest buds.
I'm feeding every 4 - 5 days with 1.5-4-5 organic nutes, Ph balanced to ~6.6. the runoff is reading at ~6.3 - 6.4. Last week I was camping for a couple of nights, and so it went a full week without being watered. that is the only thing i've done differently lately.
The problem emerged over about 3 - 4 days. Some of the leaves are starting to turn purple, and others are drying out and turning orange, like trees in the fall.
The purple does not rub off, and does not smell like mould or mildew, so I don't think that's the problem.
could it be a problem with being in a grow box? should I finish the plant somewhere less confined?
please, any advice is appreciated.
