Lighting Here we go again! 600W Vipar LED / 4X Heavyweight F+V / Plant Magic Plus + Nutes!

UPDATE: 26/11/2014 (Day 26)

Hi everyone just an update on how the girls are doing... So far everything is kind of ok. I did see a VERY small patch on one of the leaves so im guessing it's nute burn so im using less on the teaspoon now to see how they do with that. The second problem im having is temps. Even with the oil heater on full it just cant keep up with the cold weather... going from 62f to 70f but the girls don't seem that bothered to be honest but im going to get a better heater and get the temps up. Well here they are anyways!

Peace Out

Get a heater asap bro from all the reading i have done you need around 82 83 degrees when growing under leds rh of 40%. if you are on a cement floor like me I put some underlay under my tent that helped. Get one of those 1500 watt fan blower heaters if it falls over it goes off . that is what I am using.

I am just going to put this out there.. The methods that others here can teach you would help you anxiety. You are over thinking this. It's a WEED and it want's to grow. The biggest mistake is over-feeding which leads to nute-burn. But the lil gal looks great!

The dry paper like look could be due to 3 things. 1. You are folly feeding in a dry less humid environment. 2. A lack of magnesium. 3. Direct fan air.

Thanks bud but im not quite sure what you are talking about tbh the girls look a bit smaller then they are because i didn't fill the pots right up to the top lol Also the nute burn is VERY VERY small and only on 1 plant lol. Dry paper look? i am not sure where you got that from... Under normal light they look quite healthy... a nice dark green I also use PM calmag so i don't think there is any problem with Magnesium. To answer number 3, Yes i did have a fan pointed at them from very high up to improve air circulation because some green moss was starting to grow on top of the soil but since the temps have have dropped i have turned it off.

They are starting to smell like one of the best strains of weed i have smelt in a long time lol

Thanks for your help

Peace

Well iv got a new 2000W Fan heater in so hopefully i can get the temps up to 80f... after i find out how far to turn the temp dial i have a feeling this might take a while Im just hoping the girls are going to be ok with this and not get shock from growing in temps of 65 - 67f and then to 80f.

Can anyone confirm this will be ok?

Peace

Sorry for the bad luck Wild1.
How about a clean picture without the lights to show the condition?
The pros may know how you may be able to salvage something from them.

Basically 2 of them have turned to mush m8... I will get some pics later of them under normal light but all of the leaves have either been burnt to a crisp or turned to mush. They are cooked

RIP my 2 best girls :'(

I need to find some way of heating the tent without this happening again and the fan heater... well i already took a hammer to it so another one of them is not going in. Does anyone have a tube heater in their tent? im just looking at them on ebay but im not sure what size to get for a 4x4 tent.

I guess this means i can put another 6 girls in now... I think i will stick with the Plant Magic soil and nutes because everything was going well until i put that FUCKING FAN HEATER IN.. Argggg

Sorry about your luck Wild1 but are you really sure you need the heater at all . I'm no expert but the only thing I can see is that the plants growth would slow just a tad if left to the temp their currently growing under . Just a thought .

P.S. The temp in my tent is 67 to 72 depending when the lights are on .

 

[wild1]

Well the temp in the tent without a heater in ranges from 50f - 55f. I did have a little oil heater in that kept the temps at 60f - 65f and the advice i got was to get the temps up to 80f because i was growing under LED...

A couple of incandescent farm brooding lamps may help with your exhaust on low.. They are cheap and dropped below canopy level, the metal shades will radiate some constant safe heat. The tube heater should work as well.
