Good morning fellow growers.
I'm busy with my first grow and have had a few issues along the way as probably most new growers do.
I've got a single Critical Kush under LED lights in a 1m x 1m x 2m tent with a 5" exhaust and passive intake.
She's at day 32 since flipped to 12/12 and was starting to look a bit better after I over fed her in weeks 4 of flower. Or at least I think I over fed as I made a guano and charge tea which I didn't dilute too much and got a bad reaction a couple of days later. But like I say she has been looking a bit greener of late so thought she recovered . Although she's constantly had leaves dying off like this.
I've been using very small amounts of maxicrop seaweed, worm tea, guano/charge tea and biobizz top max and bloom. Not every time, I give plain water in between feeds. She's in biobizz all mix/coco 60/40. The last feed, I gave her 2ml biobizz root juice with plain water which I'd mistaken as seaweed tea. I know I should have labels it...
She doesn't seem to be drinking much I've been watering her ever 4 days because it feels like too long but the soil is almost always still damp. Also her flowers seem small for around 26 days true flower.
I've had a few gnats in the tent but thought nothing of it and because I've tried to not use any spray or stickies hoping to grow a naturally strong organic plant resistant to bugs.
I read yesterday that gnat larvae eat the roots of the plant and that the plant may show signs of a deficiency. I'm hoping that this is it. I've ordered Diatomaceous Earth and have put stickies in the tent now so hoping to get them under control.
Does this look familiar?
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
TIA OM
