Hi,
I'm relatively new to the site and to the whole process. I have a couple of plants that are five weeks into flowering. I used CFLs throughout and I'm currently using warm white CFLs on them. (plant 1: 4x42 watts Plant 2: 4x23 watts and 2 42 watts) They have been doing pretty well. There has been a bunch of light burns on them due to me not adjusting the lights properly. Throughout flowering, I have been feeding them regular dosages of FF Organic Big Bloom (4Tbs/Gal of Distilled Water). About every five to seven days, I water them with that water. They are in 4 gallon pots. I feed each plant 1/2 gallon of the mix. The plants have been doing well. For some reason, plant one seems to be doing a lot better than the second plant.
After having read about using molasses and the way they are supposed to make the buds fill up, I decided to try it out. On Friday morning, they were watered with their usual nutrients, along with one tbs of molasses. Saturday morning, I noticed a lot of leaves were droopy on the second plant. Today, a bunch of the leaves are turning the color that you see in the pics. Also, they are curling quite a bit. I don't have good air circulation in the small grow space so I'm wondering if you think that is heat burn or maybe the introduction of molasses that is causing the discoloration. It is only happening to one of the plants. The plants were grown from some seeds found in some pretty decent bud. I think they are a sativa strain because they are pretty tall and their leaves are pretty narrow. Anyway, if anyone could help, I'd greatly appreciate it!
PS The last pic is what the cola looked like on plant 1 about 2 weeks ago.
