I think the def has been taken care of, but I've also seen other pics of these plants. I keep thinking over watering caused the def. Every three days and they look droopy, seems off to me, like the plants are in slow mode. His day/night temps were low at that time too.

You think he might be light deficient?

OHB was a very light feeder as well. Difficult to get leaves to perk up on as well.
You got some guys here that actually grow in coco, I failed with it...

Do you know which ones are OHB?

IDK maybe, everything seems to point to his plants running in low gear. How much light does a qb132 put off?

Somewhere around 25 wats per square if you ballpark the math of his tent size. More light would probably be a game changer

Regardless of medium, one thing I see is them just sitting on plates. If you can raise them up in a grid of some kind that it can drain through, you'll get drainage/aeration all the way around instead of them sitting in a puddle.

Just a lot of the pieces of the puzzle are missing here.

I don't get the solo-cup in the pot thing, but I didn't read all the words so I skipped it. LOL

Could be, I have been letting them get close to 12“. I think I’ll bring them up to 15” and hold there for a bit.

I keep them as labels

Ya I was thinking that when I replied to you. @Chiefer888 maybe you should fill them in on the important details to get some better insight from everyone. You'll get better answers, more directed to your exact situation.

Only because I am reading the cup, center front row.

Figured there was an explanation - and we weren't all in from the start

Why so close? Everytime I've had LEDs that close to plants they don't like it much. You'll get a better footprint if you raise it up some. More even coverage.

Outside the box thinking - at least not what I have seen yet - but could they be hungry? First glance I see light green and droopy. Haven't seen close-ups of ugly leaves or anything to go by. But if everything else has been considered...

Not familiar with the mars, not big on their product, not gonna say they cant grow weed. I do think there are better products out there.

@Chiefer888 post up the older pics if you can, they are looking better imo.

 

[Chiefer888]

@Chiefer888 I was also wondering how you rinsed your coco? Or is it a pre mix?

I rinsed it for a while then let it sit in RO with calmag ppm 350 for 12 hours.

Here they are 11 days prior

Here they are tonight

They are looking much better. The Mac1 is a bit like that . The leaves never pray. What are your thoughts @Chiefer888 as to what you think might have been wrong? Not sure with the lighting but it looks like what @H.A.F. said about feeding might be right. They look to me like they need some nitrogen.When posting with any issues try to give as much detail as possible and will try and help solve any potential problems. After you achieve the proper amount of run off make sure you vacuum up the run off or however you dispose of it. Also until they are very healthy looking go ahead and go thru some wet and dry cycles. Lift the pot after watering so you can tell when it needs water by lifting the pot and checking the weight. Also maybe back that light off some like @macsnax said. Even cheaper LED lights can shock a plant being to close.

Lift the pot after watering so you can tell when it needs water by lifting the pot and checking the weight.

Before watering, you should literally say "DAMN that thing is light!" Like lifting air and the plant. Leaves starting to droop when healthy, that kind of thing.

Your plants weigh next to nothing now, so it's basically the weight of the soil and water.
