Hi Everyone,
I've recently switched over from HID / HPS with no issues over 10 years of growing to LED. I'm using the Mars Hydro TS1000 for veg and TS2000 for flower. Generally when I see red with HID, I would ad phosphorus to the grow and thing would go back to normal. Though I'm seeing this in young vegging plants as well. I've gone different heights with the light. Manufactuer advises 12 to 18 inches from the plant, though I believe this is too close. If I set them at the recommended heights, stems get really red, veins as well. Pull it back to 26 inches, the same, but not as bad. Hope you can give some advise on this LED thing. I'm almost to the point of going back to HPS.
Strains: Bubba Kush and Northern Lights (No purple strains)
Problem: Same as a phosphorus issue. Red stems, red veins, splotching, dark green leaves, growth sucks..
PH: 5.9 stable
Temperature: 78 degrees stable
Lights: Mars Hydro TS1000 for Veg, TS2000 for flower.
Grow Method: Hydroponics
Any help would be deeply appreciated. This issue has already ruined my Bubba Kush as you can see in the picture...
