Mephisto Genetics 2nd ever grow Fantasmo Express

Hey there,

I'll give email some food withthe next water, I think I panicked to much when the yellow leaves started popping up rather than just stick with it.

I'm using COB LEDs? I'm not quite sure what that means however I'll take a look into what to much light is in a tent.

Fan is pretty powerful but not to much , most the wind actually goes over the top of the plants so it's not concrentrated on them.

Thank you ! ;)
COB LED's are really powerful.....I just meant do you have them high enough?:pass:

I am with you. Leafs are pointing up .. too much light is worse than otherwise. If I were you I would raise the cobs 3-4in and see what happens. If they are still pointing up, raise the cobs even more. If they go back in a horizontal position, you can try to lower them a little bit and see what happens. I don‘t know your feeding but don‘t put it worse starting to overfeed them .. to me it‘s more a light than a feeding issue.
Good luck!

Hey both they were around 12inches away from the plants, I've adjusted this to around 17 and we will see how I get on. (Pic attached)

They don't need water for another 3 or 4 days anyway so hopefully I'll have enough time in-between to sort it.

I uploaded some more pics this time without it looking like purple urkles bedroom.

Just to give you an idea about cobs:
I use 50w cobs with a 90 lens .. distance cob to seedling is 37in.
Hi there does that mean you have 50w*90 of true power? This confuses me so much. I've been told the true power draw on the 1000w LEDs is around 300w however I'm just looking into what this means tbh.

I'm having fun with it but sometimes it feels like there's so much invovled in growing I won't get it right for a while :(

I have 4 cobs with 50w power each of them, using a 90 degree lens to focus the light. I have always 4 plants in my tent so I use 1 cob/plant.

Lights often are more powerful you think they would be. If you don’t know your lights, it’s always better to start at a larger distance and shorten the distance than having them too close causing light-burn. There are good threats around about light-stress and how to read your plants.

Wish you the best for your ladies! Happy growing!
