Hi Guys


Currently on day 47 and the buds are all tiny? Look miles off with no thricomes? The leaves also seem to be wilting slightly but it’s not down to under/overwatering.

Set up wise I have 4 hortibloom 650 watt led running at around 65% 28” above the canopy.

Day temp 28 Celsius 20 Celcius night temp.

Humidity 65%

PH 5.8-6 and EC currently at 2.0

Any suggestions as to what could be going on here?

Any advice be deeply appreciated.

Looks a bit stressed heat most likely the cause lower the day temp to 78 80 degrees. Do you have a fan running in the tent?

I think your doing ok steve. Try and start giving them pk now if you haven't started to already. I know the genetics are declared to be what ever but I believe they've used the south holland c5 cutting as a large part of the make up in this. That can go 16 weeks so judging by that yours seem to be on target.
I would definitely look into your temperatures like bose says, near the top of your plants. Looks like some of your pistols are prematurely oranging. So check out your heat and air exchange levels. You need plenty of fresh air with the variety.

My buddy grew liberty haze once. He ended up with dozens and dozens of small gum ball to golf ball size small nugs. It might be strain specific (the small bud size).

Ahh ill try lowering slightly, I've just had them slightly higher as that is what ive read is best for LED, higher temp and humidity. I have an in take and outtake plus 4 16inch oscillating fans.

I am now beginning to wonder if because I have the LED which are not causing any heat, I have my out take on much lower so there will be nowhere near as much air exchange as on my previous runs with HPS bulbs

If he is using LEDs then the 82F temp would be ok. From what I've read and experienced the temps needs to be a bit higher for LEDs. Even up to 85ish for canopy temps. 1000PPM can be ok for bigger plants as well. He said its not from overwatering but it looks like it.

One of my friends lucked out and got a longer flowering pheno of libertyhaze a few years back it was nice stuff pretty potent too so even if it takes its time thats not always a bad thing depending on how you look at it and from a glance ur plants look like its too much n or a ph imbalance and or too much water

Would you say so, in week 6?

well. that really depends on the strain id suppose. if shes a heavy feeder she would take it but in my exp running 2.0 or higher is really riding the line. hot temps plants will uptake more water and leave nutes behind causing salts to build up. so ya ec 2.0 is ok if your plants can handle it and your conditions are more ideal but yours seem to be having some issues so its something id look into
can you check your runoff ec and ph?
with the browning of pistols at week 6 i would assume its a nute/ph issue due to heat stress or lights too close especially because of the clawing of the leaves.
is your water too cold when you water them?
are you 100% sure your rh% is 65? are you using a reliable meter? theres really alot of things that could be going on and its pretty hard to narrow it down with basic info and a few pics but id start with those things

you said you 'always run this strain' are you saying you run cuts off a mom or you have sprouted seeds of this strain before.
if its the latter then you may have a diff pheno that responds diff to environment

I think I may know what could be causing it. I’ve just gone to check on them and I have a green led light for if I ever just want to quickly check then during the night. The light was on, I guess the light has been on for around 6 days, this is a green led light made for working in your room at dark but I’m not sure if it would effect things if it’s left on for a long period, thoughts?
