Sorry took so long to get back to ya,

This will help with that.

Co2 is carbon dioxide plants take in Co2 in order to photosynthesize. In some growing methods you would seal off your growspace air tight and flood the room with co2 and double even tripple the light power. The co2 allows the plant to take in all the extra light. An advanced grow method to be sure. Dangerous if not done right.

Seeing a couple things with your plants.
Picture 1,2, and 3 looks like overwater to me (@Covertgrower better leaf diagnostic than I, wait for his reply)
Overwater can cause nute burning apperance

Picture 3 has what looks like bug damage. I zoomed up on it so you can see what I mean. I would get out a magnifier and start looking under the leaves for bugs and/or eggs. If they are there or not would be wise to lay down some food grade DE pictured bellow. A tblsp spread out and scratched into the top soil is good for killing bug larvae and is a source of silica for plants. Beware its light as air so a swift sigh will send it flying.

When you did your initial mix of soil, was the soil new ? And did you mix in the full recommend dose ? Or a reduced amount because the soil was already amended with nutrients?

Have you top dressed them since planting them?

Have you allowed the soil to dry at any point?

The reason I ask all :point_up_2: is because
To me it looks more like nutrient burn which goes with feeding a full dose of base to new happy frog soil

I apologize for not answering before, I’m in the middle of my C treatments and I easily get off track. I just didn’t catch the issue

I sneezed on a heaping tablespoon and it looked like when you drop a open bag of flour in the floor when baking. Once its in your topsoil it will stick to everything in there. Replace every 3 or so waterings. Great organic way to fend of soil bugs.
Also good for your stomach bacteria and such, check it out.

Right because of the earth dust, yeah?
Gotta try me some of that!

If you are using soil that is already amended with nutrients you can only add a little food or it will become to hot. Even if you are feeding synthetic nutes you would feed lightly for the first month, some growers won’t feed at all for the 1st month

TGSC puts it in their instructions now but they haven’t put it on the bag yet

Ok thanx guys that’s what I was thinking Ite burn I did what the bag said but I only let the soil cook about a week in a big pot alone then added it to the soil. Because I didn’t want to transplant it I’m thinking nute and lights stayed on to long :face_with_peeking_eye: hope it bounces back still learning first grow. So judge me guys :joy::joy:

No judgement here, even after my 3rd grow I made some serious mistakes.

Ive been doing this a long time and still never had that perfect run. If it was easy no dispensaries would exist. Why we all strive for perfection!

12-18 inches standard hanging heights. Start at say 15 inches. Hold your hand at canopy height for 30 seconds if its to warm for you to keep your hand there, then its too hot for your plant. You cannalso look to the tops of your leaves, if they start bleaching white then light is too close. It will look like this.


You can also download an app called photone

It can help you find the DLI your plant is getting. 35-45 DLI is reasonable. Some growers go up to 65 but when I do that my leaves burn. Looks like this minus the yellowing, thats because Im in the final weeks and am only giving water.

How don know when ready

Trichomes will be opaque like this when they are done.

This is my current runs trichomes and they have a week or so left.

Your gonna need a stronger magnifier. I have both a jewlers loup and a usb microscope.

Avg flowering time for cannabis (both autos and photos) is 8-10+ weeks. Growth cycle for autos USUALLY goes
1 week germ
1 werk seedling
2-3 weeks vegging
7-10 days transition from veg to flower
8-10 weeks flowering time.

None of that is set in stone. Photos the same except for 2 things. 1) they veg as long as you want them too and 2) your light cycle must be changed to 12 on and 12 to initiate the transition.

Your plant, im guessing, is about 2 or 3 weeks flowering, so I guestimate you have 6-7+ weeks still to go.
Does that make sense?
