Hey- New to growing and new to the forum. Want to say hi to everyone first of all.
For some background:
I set up my first grow tent. It's small, 2x2x4. Figured i'd start out with it and see how it goes. I put in mars hydro 300w LED light, a 6" fan, and a 4" exhaust fan at the top.
Temperatures seem to be around the mid 80's. I try to leave the vents open during the day to keep the temp. down a bit.
So down to the nitty gritty. She's about 30 days old. After a lot of research; i decided to top the plent on the 3rd sprout. Everything was going well until this happened. The cotyledons started to fall off. I know this is typical. I started to see some yellowing in the 2nd set of 3 leaves. A few days later, they started to brown and crisp up.
Some of the new growth looks like it has a bite taken out of it. I can assure you there's no bugs in my tent. Or mice. The new growth also has some limp to it. Overwatering perhaps?
You can also see a bit of a limp in the leaves which is why I think it's overwatering.
The yellowing seems to be making it's way up from the bottom of the plant, but it skipped the first set of leaves. So i'm very confused here.
I gave her, her first bit of fert yesterday, Alaskan Fish. So i'll watch the next few days and see how she is. I have some pictures below.
I tried to water every 3-4 days; typically when the top is totally dried out. I've never seen water flow through the hole on the bottom. I know I re-potted a bit too quickly in an over sized pot; a bit seems to think it may be an issue as well?
Any help would be great.
Thank you!
