Thank you both.
I’m looking at LED light options, would 350watts with a bloom function be sufficient?
Or 1200 like this:

Thanks again.

50cm x 50cm x 120 cm right? If you’re looking for a budget led panel to use, the one you linked is about the right size.

(Columbo) Just one more thing
I’ve installed this light
HIPARGERO LED Grow Light - 450W COB LED Grow Lights for Indoor Plants Veg and Flower with 1200K 3000K 5000K Full Spectrum COBs and 5W Cree LEDs https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B078HZTZRS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_c72MCbQCRJAHW
Which looks way better.
Is there a way of forcing it into Bush mode?
Shortening the impending gaps between new nodes.
Thanks again.

You can top it. It won’t physically shorten the node spacing you have, but it should encourage a little more growth on your lowers.

Is that okay with an Autoflower, given their short grow schedule?

Oh, sorry I wasn’t paying attention and didn’t realize it was an auto. I’m not an auto grower, but my understanding is that needs to be timed pretty well.

Morning all, Would any of you have an idea as to why the lower leaves are drooping, the top leaves are beginning to curl inwards?
Its generally about 45/50% humidity at about 25 degrees Celsius.
I changed the light for a more powerful one, and watered yesterday with limited nutes.
Thanks everyone, I’m very grateful for all the help you’ve provided.

What’s your PH at run off?

Sorry, I’m not sure I understand the question, am I meant to be watering it to the point where water runs out the bottom and measuring the PH?
Thanks
yes correct
Your Water PH & your nutes PPM

Okay, so water run off PH is 5.2.
What os the best way to correct this?
I have ordered a ppm meter.
Is this plant worth persisting with, in your opinion? - As it’s had continuous issues from the start.
Ok you need your PH to at least 5.8
How big is your pot?

Ok make 10L of water at 6.5PH and put all that through your pot
Then do it again 2 more times at 6.2PH
The last 2- 5L test your PH at your runoff

Wow, okay.
Thanks for your help, much appreciated.

Aim for 5.8 - 6.2
Dont stop until you reach this… it may take 40L if you have undisolved salts etc.
Then tomorrow you will need to give it a full feed of nutes. Checking PH of mixed nutes is at 5.8 - 6.2
