Should I provide more info or something? I noticed today that there are a few small leaves much lower on the plants that have this same discoloration. There will be just one leaf like that and the rest around it are normal.

Not sure what's going on here. At first I thought it was just that the tallest parts of these plants are too close to the light. But now I'm wondering if something else is going on. I've looked through all of the plant nute deficiency pictures and don't see anything like this. The...

Was going to buy a homebox but my space just isn't big enough, I'd have to cut the polls to shrink the thing by about 8"... So instead I'm gonna make my own. But which material to use? Foylon OmniFlect Sun Ultra Mylar White Poly My setup is in an attic so winter temps will be down to the low...

Thanks y'all! GypsyBush, thanks for postin that pic, it definitely put me at ease that my 400w will be no problem in this amount of space. Though the homebox s is a bit too tall for my space, I think I may try to make it work anyway.

The homebox website says that their small tent is suitable for 250w. Anyone have a guess why that is? I'm hoping to squeeze one into my attic so I can use my 400w hps this winter. Heat shouldn't be much of a problem since it gets cold up there and I am venting the light. My hope is that the...

My summer attic grow went pretty well. Dealing with the heat/cold and lack of vertical space can be tough hurdles. If vertical space is an issue for you then be sure to force flower asap or else you'll end up panicking when suddenly your buds are getting burnt by the light. Tying down the...

more pics. first one is from several days ago, rest from today.

Started from bagseed outdoors, moved indoors when she started to flower on her own. Everything is going great, I'll have to harvest in the next two weeks no matter what (visitors arriving soon) so it might be a bit early. Trichs: 10% clear, 75% cloudy, 15% amber. I've flushed and now only use...

Very nice! In a few pics I noticed blue/green light bulbs. Are those for working during the dark cycle?

That's what I was hoping someone would say :) I've also got some smaller leaves close to the buds that are curling up. It isn't on all the colas, just a few. Any ideas?

Had a slow transition to flowering, she was moved from outside to inside once she started to flower on her own. Then seemed to go back to veg for a week or so. Close to 60 days flowering. The buds are forming nicely but not many trichomes yet. They really just started forming a few days ago...

Thanks a lot bonz. I'm now better setup to do a real flush so will do that tonight. Also, quiet420guy: You're right, less IS more. That's something I'm aware of in nearly everything else in my life, I just got too excited by this project. I'll settle down a bit now. :blsmoke:

I don't have much vertical space to work with but I did raise the lights one more notch, based on your advice. Most of what I see seems like nute burn more than heat from the light. Thanks for taking the time to take a look and tell me what you think.

This is my 2nd grow, first was a few years ago and was pretty successful. Things this round are going pretty well but am now having a few small issues and am hoping for advice. As you can see by the pics the leaf tips are a bit burned and some leaves are pointing down and some are curling...

Yeah, when growing in an attic putting a plant in the tub isn't an option... though it's good to know what others do. I do only need to flush a few times each round but I recently burned my girl a bit so I needed to do a mini-flush. Thanks for the info y'all!
