Hello all! Newbie here. I am going to start out by letting everyone know what my set up in-tails. I have a 5x9 Gorilla grow tent with 4 600w lights air cooled with insulated ducting and as many gadgets and goodies I could find.

First pictures are from today day 27.

I am running the full Canna terra line up and their full recommended schedule.

I am currently running two of my lights and am running 1500ppms of Co2. My temps are a steady 88F and are 79 when the lights are off.

My humidity was sticking right around 60% until the other day it shot up to 90% and water was dripping off of the walls which I believe caused some stress to my Cindy 99 as you will see below.

I have since gotten a dehumidifier and it doesn't budge from 60%

I am looking for some constructive criticism from all so that I can become as efficient and knowledgeable as possible.

If anyone can point out what kind of deficiencies there are and or what I should be doing differently I am all ears!

They are starting to look a lot better within the past 24 hours since I dropped my humidity.

Here we go with some pics.

3 Master Kush

1 Cindy 99

2 Big Buddha Cheese

1 Sage & Sour

Enjoy!

Nice set up and thx for sharing, do you have any cal/mag?
it could be an iron and zinc deficiency
Thanks for the reply! I do not. I didn't want to add anything yet because I've read that it could be a calcium deficiency due to the two days of extreme humidity. According to my research if there is too much humidity she will stop all cal intake. True or false? Here is a photo taken from last week. And they were absolutely flawless. Should I wait a couple of days before adding anything? I just watered with my canna line up yesterday so well see if it gets better! It's only one plant so I'll be curious to see if any others were effected.

if ph is to high plants wont take up cal/mag anyway and
I don't think humidity has anything to do with it.

are you growing soil?

PH shouldn't be high with RO tho correct? All I know is from what I've been reading. They looked 5x better when I checked on them this morning before the lights went off. I guess we'll see when I get home!

Ladies look great, those trays are the worst though! Try some heavy duty ones like these at Amazon

88f on seems kinda pushing it, no? Obviously you have a few candlepower up top lol, but can you beat that back a few points? I read over 85f starts causing problems, that's usually my redline.
Looking really good to me, I'm sure you will be smiling at harvest :)

Thanks for the tip! Yea the ones I have are crap but ill wait until next run to upgrade things like that! Ive been doing pretty well at 88. Ive read for veg at least, that temps over 85 with a constant supply of co2 at 1500PPM is when they really thrive. I did just order a mini split that will be installed next week that im super stoked about so Ill be able to control my room like fort knox. 88F is good but Id like to get my other two lights going and I cant if I dont want the room to be 100F. So two 600S until next week when I get the mini split. Cheers!
