New Growth Issue!

:toke: SG-- :yeahthat: -- AND it's the low RH that's causing this mostly, I see signs of it already in those up-turned edges (same as usual with your grow, right? :doh:).... the plant is taking in more water to deal with the high transpiration rates, and along with it, nutrients! Plants take up several nutes whether they need them or not, and N is top of that list, so it's likely that a few of these are just getting overloaded because of the environmental issues,... get a small humidifier, maybe hang a wet hand towel in there, anything to get the RH over 40%,... and reduce feed conc. on them meantime,...
Thank u 4 your help Waira...appreciated a lot!
I already have a little humidifier and I'm not using it lately 'cause it didn't actually raise that much RH in my grow room (120x120).
Anyway tomorrow i'll give it a try and i'll try the wet towel method too.
What about the nutes?
Do u have confidence with GH flora trio?
 
Few weeks ago i had same problem with my girls (and more accually i made every mistake :shrug:) my RH was about %14-%20 i bought a humidifier its now %50-%65 and solved many of my problems BTW that thanks goes to @Waira .

take look at my post you'll see many mistakes to learn about :wall::wall: ill post new fotos thursday they are looking... well there are too much way to go but i love them
Great!
Which kind of humidifier did u buy?
And how did u deal with extraction vent?
My humidifier seems to be undone by extraction
 
This is a picture i took few minutes ago:
Today (day 14)should have been feeding day but i pushed back my crazy maternal instinct until tomorrow.

Just thought I'd drop this Nug (hehe). I too have had an impossible time keeping RH up with my 440cfm 6 inch inline extraction fan going, even with two humidifiers! The only way I have been able to keep a stable and suitable RH environment (probably temp too) was to keep the fan off most of the time. What I have done is add a digital timer on the fan so that it goes on 2 times every 35 minutes for 2 minutes each time. This should be (for now) enough exhaust out and pulling in some fresh C02 while my 3 plants are at this young, fragile stage. I also have 2x 6 inch clip-on fans and another 10 inch pulling in near the bottom (passive) intake area of my 3x3 tent for good air movement.

Now once they start getting a little beefier/stronger and they are spitting out lots of oxygen and that fine but all powerful smell the fan will need to be on a lot more (probably 24/7), but by that point they should be able to handle a bit lower humidity and still manage (I hope!).

Hope this helps! Keep the green thumbs strong @SirGreen @Colderia

:smokeout::toke:... Thank you my homies, and you're welcome!

>> SG, GH trio is just fine,.. their liquid Kool Bloom is a great PK booster 0-10-10, good Ca-Mg products too,...

mmm...that's a good idea.
And i tried already.
The problem is that the temperature has risen too much taking off the vents.
Fortunately i have a grow room with two side windows, so I should try to keep em opened and see what happens.
What I've noticed too is that right under the lamp, the RH is lower than a little bit aside.
So it's a real pain in the ass!

Sir Green, try a towel wick, under a pan of water, with a fan blowing on it. When the top dries, flip it. You'll need to flip it a few times a day but well worth it.
Here is mine.

I went from low 20's to low 50's although I think all this snow has helped drive that # up
 
Haha
