• Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
    Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧

well IMO there should be not roots showing you might need to water more ... it looks like they are looking for water... and maybe a bigger bucket would be good also... just my 2 cents..

Looking great. I admire your commitment to them.

Have you considered running your lights at night and off during the day? This may help with your night temperatures. I doubt lack of light is causing flower drop nor over or under watering, looking at the condition of the plant.

Nute levels seem good according to he plants 'body language'.

Maybe they just aren't ready yet. Maybe move your fan down to aid in pollination.

12 on 12 off??? or are you going to leave it on all day??:)
 
I doubt that a single dose of 24 hours of light would hurt them any.

Interesting, I'd never thought of swapping to a night shift to fix the temperature differential.

Thanks toleman,do you think every other rez's change would be all right?I change it about every 10-12 days.It calls for 5ml per gallon i put in about 3ml per gallon.
 
I have only ever done one grow in hydro and that was last year. I didn't use any boosters or additives. I am thinking this year of trying some GHE diamond nectar as I have seen fatalii use it and have good results. This will be added at 1/4 strength and increased after a week depending on results. I think if you get to grips with how they grow with no additives and you can slowly see the impact of what they do with the additives - you will get better results.

I think your booster will be labelled for pot which doesn't rely on flower set. More for big bud growth. Try adding your booster to this mix and not when you do a change. See how it effects things.

I personally like to change things slowly and one at a time. This gives an indication on how each action is effecting them.

Sorry for the lecture lol... now its up to you decide how you go from here.
