Hi all,
First, pictures:
(bad!)
I've had these four plants vegging under 20/4 for the past 8 weeks. They vegged for so long because their siblings were taking forever to finish using the flowering tent.
I ended up having to perform all the switching of tents in one day. Their soil was messed with -- I added more soil into the bags, raising them up a bit, and worked the soil a bit to make sure it was still easy to grow in. I trimmed off the lower leaves as I've had pest problems in the past and those leaves undersides are impossible to spray. I make that decision only after seeing my first harvest under the same strain -- the lower leaves yielded very little and caused a lot of hassle for me.
I sprayed with neem II spray at lights-off two days in a row after putting them into 12/12 (again, pest issues just wanting to make sure before getting into flowering.).
I gave the transplants a good soaking after they were moved. Since then I've just been spot watering them until I got a feel for what they wanted during flowering. At the time the pictures were taken they were as dry as they'd get -- watered just after the pictures taken with no-nutes distilled water.
From there... nothing else has changed. I just finished flowering in this tent before. You can see my temps are mid 70s, and my humidity is lower 60s. I'm under a 135W LED -- you can see its distance from the leaves in the pictures. The soil is straight FFOF with worm tillings mixed in during the transplant. The pH was in the mid 6's before mixing in the worm tillings.. I can check again but would hope they're not wreaking havoc.
There's moderate air flow. I have jars of sugar, yeast and water in the tent producing additional CO2.
The transplant was 8 days ago. Since then one of the guys has lost leaves like mad, a couple of them recovered fully, and one is still teetering in-between.
Any ideas?
