Been a Long Time Coming ~ Been a long Time Gone

When you water.... how do you water? Pour it on? Use any type of device? How big are your pots? Does water come out the bottom? :lol: enough questions? :)

I put a brown coffee filter, 1" approx of pearlite and then my soil mix.

I'm betting you pour or douse the plant with your water/nutes. If so, then I would suggest that is the cause of your roots at the bottom of the pot. When I water, I specifically try to 'spread' the water around using my turkey baster, trying not to flood any area. Generally I give each plant 4 maybe 5 squirts depending on how heavy they feel. I water every day.

*Of course, this is my opinion and I'm probably wrong
 
This clone has never been exposed to anything other than ph water in the form of mist. It is in Fox Farms Ocean Forrest soil under humidity dome. It gets 24 hours of light, approx. 7 of the 24 it is in real sunlight at fairly high exposure to ambient UV, the balance is under CFL's. In profile, the clone looks good.

My eyes are telling me nute burn, but my experience is telling me this is the way the house plants look after I put them outside from wintering inside.

So, basically I'm suggesting we are looking at the effects of UV burn on the young leaves and the subsequent leaves have already adjusted.

*Of course, this is my opinion and I'm probably wrong 8)

Other then the little burn area they look like a beautiful color of green. I think they will adjust nicely and become very happy with the added UV. Looking good!!
 
hmmmmm......YGF....interesting circumstances. your sunlight is from behind a glass window? would this matter? it doesn't really look like nute burn.....but I can't see that well either....and I don't really know much either.....and there are a host of other reasons that you shouldn't listen to me so I'll shutup now.........
 
No, not nute burn... and it doesn't really look like an undernute.

I know i said differently not 5 minutes ago in a pm... but the more I look at the pic's the more it looks like a light burn.

If it is undernute there should be accompanying symptoms, although not always.
 
i would like to find out what the discoloration is for my own uses. i had something that looked similar last grow for me. i couldnt quite figure it out so maybe i could learn from you'ens or yens(oops my pennsylvania roots showing through).
 
Koosh, was your plant outside?

Hey, if your using an incubator or forcing chamber and not direct sowing (how else would you know the seeds have cracked?) get us a shot of the little ones entering a new life.....

......I think UV burn may be closer to the truth. There are probably a lot more wavelengths of light that are being exposed to the plant from the sun then in all the bulbs you have. I think a little adjustment time is in order.

Any progress today??
 
It has been snowing here all day, so the sky was gray. When I saw Skunk's pic's of severe UV burn, I now feel my suspicions were confirmed.

So, we have ascertained that a clone growing under 6,500k CFL's for 17 hours and then 7 hours of direct sunlight, will get uv burn.

Now we need to see how the next stage goes. Since this is a female clone, and further since it will be exposed to natural uv versus it's mother which has never seen natural uv. Only one way to see the difference between the THC production _ no I don't have a killer scope like some people _ and that is to get a THC test kit. :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just went and put the clones under the artificial light until tomorrow am. The uv burn doesn't seem to have gotten any worse _ it is interesting to note that only the new growth leaf had the symptoms. The other older and more greener/mature leaves showed no ill effects. So, my conclusion is that fresh Veg. growth is able to be sunburned when exposed to not expected amounts of UV. The new growth doesn't appear to be affected but it is still so small that I can not yet distinguish what is going on.
