Quick history of this grow.... i got started with some very cheap Walmart materials ... over the past 2 months i have went from closet to 4x8 tent, *2 weeks ago
(previous owner used to grow mushrooms in it)
I now have a mars hydro TS600 grow light and a Spider Farmer SF1000 Led but I honestly don't have the hands-on experience to make conditions ideal as i have only done fruits and veggies in my early years and haven't gardened in over 20 years (im 32 lol) and very much a student to this.
As the title suggests I'm in week 5 flower of my first ever grow and i am losing hope. My leaves are either spotted brown or are browning at an alarming rate. Earlier today i noticed that the brown finally spread to the tips of my sugar leaves and it feels like ive just been "1st love dumped" Im hoping i can save her or salvage. I also know i only have 4 weeks left tops before harvest so i doubt there is much i can do but salvage.
The strains are unknown (Big sister blessed me with her saved over the year seeds)
I am using FF OF Soil and Flora Flex nutes after upgrading from Root organics 9.99 bag of dirt.
My thoughts from what i see at an eyes notice is:
I haven't PH'd my water
I haven't top dressed my soil since they have been in the 3-gallon pots so i honestly think this is the main issue. I won't be able to get soil until 10/20 and I've noticed a decline for about 2 weeks now.
I have a really strong humidifier and a weak one, I run the weak one while i am away because the other one leaves things DRENCHED.
My strains are unknown.
My tent is new to me and hasn't been set up right.
What i thought to do to fix:
Buy some FF OF and worm castings and top dress while ph-ing my water and only using the Bud ripener from Floraflex
I have been reading up on what to buy for my next grow and of course saw the K.I.S.S method and wanted to lean on that for simplicity but i also saw a few potential recipes and wanted advice.
Would these materials suffice? I really dont want to over complicate things as i have already done so and screwed up pretty badly.
FF Ocean Forest (by itself) or mixed with a brick of coco
or
FF Bush Coco Loco and MaxiBloom for Nutes
or
There is a place near me that has completely broken-down aged Horse Manure Compost that is 2 years in the making. I was going to mix that with some Coco perhaps and feed with Gaia Green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4
OR
the Compost with Coco and Maxibloom - That seems the most simple ^_^
*IDK why i am so stuck on trying coco lol. If i am doing too much trying to incorporate it please let me know
I will post pictures when i get off of work but i wanted to get some feedback while i wait. I literally can't think of anything else but my babies right now lmao
