since the weather is cold... i thought i would put my two cheese mothers in a cupboard with one 20w cfl on 24hrs and no heating its been an average of 10c thats 50 f for our american friends,

they have started to show the strain after 4 weeks

16 week old cheese mothers
coco pots
temps 10c -50f
feed E.C 1.2
ph 5.9

Any bugs ???????????????.
The ph is far to low for soil.
Below 50* is cause for plant death.

no bugs ludo the ph is fine in coco ive raised it to ph 6.0 (1.5 ec) at the mo ... temps are 14c/57f they look good for these conditions what do you think

I was looking at pic 4 and it looks like rust spots to me and your temps are to low.
Have you hade a look for bugs on the underside of those leafes with the rust spots on them ??????????.
The distorsion and twisty growth are a suspicion.

LUDA.

[pic no 4 ]that was a rogue leaf that had me scratching my head it was the only one with these spots ... and deff no bugs ... its a experiment to see if these cheese's can handle our late spring temperatures coz they're going outside ... so wanted to see if they will die at low temps and high humidity but they are strong as f*ck and the leafs are like leather thick

They will never survive outdoors at these temps and its getting near bug time so outdoors is a no no unless you really want to kill them.

If you are in scotland the temps are still below 0* at night and i always grow indoors and even at 10* outdoors max/daytime at this time just wont work.
