3 pointed leaves!!

[Indy73]

I have three clones I just switched to 12/12 11 days ago. Someone pointed out that a lot of my leaves are three pointed. I have a few 5 pointers but most 3. Is this a major problem? Will I still be able to get a harvest from them ?

3 leaves usually means immature, could be not enough light.

You'll still get a harvest, but don't set your expectations too high. Those lights aren't necessarily ideal.

a healthy plant with adequate light will grow as follows, 1 leaf, 3 pointed leaf, 5, and 7 some go mare but should increase points at eacn node. Some strains only get 3 or 5 points, duckfoot is one.

If I change lights will they recover

There nothing to recover from. Their not necessarily stressed. Just perhaps not enough light energy. If you do switch to more powerful light, don't blast them with full power at first. Work your way to full power.

Ok n a have a 3x3 tent how much actual watts do I need for it

 

[Southernontariogrower]

9 sq ft x 35 equals 315w of good full spec led. And like holla said raise lights at first 2 ft plus then lower slowly over week or so.

I have a lil over 400 watts in my 3x3 and it does pretty well.

Pounding them with about 45w per sq ft, using co2? Buds gotta be huge.

 

[Indy73]

Thank you guys alot

 

[Southernontariogrower]

keep us informed how it goes.

 

[Hollatchaboy]

poundining them, how long till dimmer at full power. Must make nice buds. Using co2?

I've had my dimmer at full for a few days but I have it hung a lil higher up right now. I'm using cobs and I feel I get better penetration at full power and hung higher, than lower power, hung lower. My ppfd is just under the recommendation for co2, so I haven't used any.

 

[Hollatchaboy]

Thank you guys alot

I dunno a lot, but I'll help with whatever I do know.

 

[go go kid]

CLONES OFFTEN F do this, but they will or should change to 5 then 7 leaf blades

 

[Southernontariogrower]

l go with homebrew co2, way better than tnb naturals which only last 3 days. Longest tnb lived 5 days. Use water bottle filter so l know when dead. Try it you can raise temp and humidity with co2, they grow way better, less problems. Plants loving it. Reveg will cause 3 leaved plants too. But they grow out of it.

 

[Hollatchaboy]

I've thought about it, but I don't believe it's a limiting factor. I might try it on my next run, just to be sure though. Lol

Dont try because you will become anal about it like l have. I just cant not feed co2 after last grow using it. Plants are way healthier than before l used co2.

What lights you using?

 

[Indy73]

Update I ended up getting new lights with a actual power of 310 watts. All my plants have started flowering but I’ve noticed my fan leaves have become dry and crispy. I have the lights all the way up so I don’t think it’s light burn. I’m not sure if it’s my temperature in the tent or if I’m over/under with the nutes please help
