I am at day 26 and I have not feed them yet and wondering if they are asking for some food.

I am in FFOF so I was told I would not need to feed until week 5-6.

I am thinking about feeding with Gaia topdressing 4-4-4 if needed.

I also found out prior to my last watering my ph was a little high but the last water was at 6.9 and they will need water in the morning.

I posted a full detailed journal so I have all the stats posted there if you are curious.

Thanks for any help.

First of all why are you ph’ing your water for soil? Second what’s your watering schedule because they look overwatered as well, ideally in soil you want to go two to three days between watering, marijuana likes periods of dry. And it looks like a cal mag Deficiency, get some cal-mag mag a 1/4 teaspoon to 25 ounces of water and spray your foliage they should bounce back.

Lol because I am a noob. and because where I live in beautiful bc out tap water is a ph over 8 so I did not adjust the first few waterings and feel like it stunted them a bit. the last water i did adjust down to about 6.8 yet they still are showing a little yellow. I waterd three days ago and will water again tonight. I wait till they are almost dry to give them more and i feel weight too.

i am going to go grab some cal mag or dolomite lime and some gaia green 4-4-4, 2-8-4 to do a little top dress when it is needed in a few weeks. trying to stay organic. May be dumb question but would molasses help this?

Today i was given a new light by a client of mine. It is 1000 watts but has two setting for bloom and veg. It is much more blue and red then mine now which are 2x 400w cobb cree full spectrum however i am sure they are not that strong as the are a china brand. My guess is closer to 250 watts per light.

sooooo do i add this to the middle and put my other two on the ends or will that be too much light for the 2x4 tent.

again i dont think this is a full 1000 watts ether as it is again a china brand but with great reviews.

can there be too much light as long as i control heat?

If your running 2 true 400w cobs already I think that's plenty for that little tent. I would not add any more with Co2 supplementation. The real stuff not the little bags

Just out of curiosity i feel like you may be giving to much light which might be why you are seeing a cal-mag issue. LED is a bit different of a beast.

Its not the most ideal but download a lumen light meter on your phone and at that stage of growth shoot for maybe 25,000-30,000 lumens most

That sounds like a great idea.

https://growindo.com/products/cob-led-grow-light-400w-cree-full-spectrum-50w-actual-draw-x-2-cob-lamps

That is a link to the lights is have now they are full spectrum but mostly white. So I also considered just the 1000w for flowing and take other out. But my feeling is the cobs are only 200watts each and use the China trick to claim higher numbers.

As I got the light for free is was a no brainer to take lol now how to best use it. Maybe even using all the lights but keeping the 1000 on veg ...1/2 strength but different spectrum could help.

Idk as I said I'm a noob thanks for the help

Yeah those are true 50w you can prob add em all in there but at this stage i would not go more than 30,000 lumens even 20,000-25,000 will be good and a little less demanding. Once in flower you will want throw all of those at them.

I’d stop ph’ing, my water is at 8.6 also I’ve ph before and it caused so many problems yellow leaves mostly. I’d just top dress with the 444 and 284 but no more ph’ing I think that’s your main issue.
