hey guys this is a GrandDaddyPurp plant. When I got my perlite and my canna coco I didnt exactly stir it all around so Its perlite on bottom and coco on top. This plant is in a completly controlled room with a 600 HPS. Temps are at 74-80 at most with about 72* with lights off. My cola stalks (I FIMmed it) are a bit rubbery rather than that firm stalk feel and I have purple stems to most fan leaves. Along with almost purple stripes going down the main growth stem. It also had a bit of leaf curling / clawing.
IMO the perlite on the bottom wasnt retaining water and starving the bottom half of the root zone.
I used water from a hose to attempt to break out as much perlite as I could and then added some coco to fill the void in the new pot.
Then I watered with 5.5 ph water with canna rhizo and now she sets until tonite.
This plant is 6 weeks from first two leafs. about 10" tall and has about 15 nodes.
I feed with cal mag plus, adv sensi a&b, hygrozyme, sweet. 800PPM
All in all I think she looks healthy. Just a few questions to feed my growing knowledgebase.
I dont usually worry about the purple coloring, though I would like to know if I should up my cal mag or add in some P or K
Was my decision to repot the plant a good idea?
Why do the stems turn to rubber? I have so far found that heat will do it, however as stated it never gets above 80*
Thanks and plus reps if I get a response
