Attempting the First Grow

See how the plant stretches out its leaves, drinking happily. This what to look for when dialing in the environment. The only other thing id rec is adapting your nute strength to your transpiration: if you were dialed in on nutes before and now increase drinking youd need to dial down the nutes a touch to avoid that tip burn.
Yes! I can see the difference! It is quite amazing comparing a photo from July 7 to one on July 15. Dispite the damage the change is quite dramatic. It was my intention to ask you what you meant about the posture of the plant, what did you see that I'm blind to? However a picture comparison makes it abundantly clear as to what my blind spot was and what you meant as to posture. Now I understand completely. I am closly watching the plant on the right as it has consideably less tip burn to insure it dosen't increase.

I reduced the nutes immediately 7 days ago as, according to the growth recommendations of the seed supplier, I had increased them at week 6. At present I don't think it's a good idea to increase them to the week 7 levels as the directions also say to increase the watering amount by 200ml. To me that's adding more nutes by the volume of water, perhaps I'm wrong on this. They suggest a mixture of 9 to 14ml per gal. and I am at 10.5ml. I will consider adding more later but then again every week the level of watering is also increasing. The VPD is ranging from 1.2 to 1.4 with a 24 hour average of 1.29. Basically when the light is off the VPD lowers and increases with the light on. My LED grow light differently produces a considerable amount of heat raising the temperature in the tent up to 5 degrees F. Lighting at 90% is on 18 and off 6 and set to flowering array. Plants are auto flowering Sour diesel.

My plants and I most sincerely thank you for your acute observation and knowledgeable rescue from an epic impending disaster.
